The South in Northern hands. --The veracious Bennett announces: --In less that six weeks Richmond will be in our hands." It will be in very dirty hands then. It will be moreover in the hands of the greatest liars in all Christendom, and the m Orleans, whilst the magnificent Generalissimo of the Grand Army cannot get twenty five miles South of Washington. Let Bennett observe by the light of these simple facts what a shocking blunder the North has made in attempting to get possession ofill have filled our stores, her books and literature generally have continued to poison the minds of our population, and Bennett's Herald with its dirty list of Personals, its infidel editorials, and its vagabond correspondents have still been abroang,--and the consequence is, it has lost in a year of war all it had gained by fifty years of commercial swindling. Let Bennett be assured that hereafter the South will no longer be in Northern hands, either in the way of trade or conquest. It oug

From the New York Sunday Times, we clip the following: nd much curiosity was manifested as to "what was the matter." Weed is not the man to spend his time with a scalawag like Bennett without a purpose, and our Washington correspondent, in a private note, gives us the facts in the case, which are very cthe Government. Secretary Seward, however, was determined not to submit to it, and he consequently sent Weed to see Bennett and inform him of the feeling at Washington. He was notified that if he opened on the Government his paper would be seized and sent to Fort Lafayette. Bennett "dom'd" a good deal, but was silenced by a copy of a dispatch dated at the Herald office, which had been seized by the Government early in the war, which proved the Herald establishment to have been in the in
the Southern volunteers will expire, and they have determined not to re- enlist. Their hopes are based upon the desertion by the South of its own cause, and on the conviction that the men whom they cannot defeat in battle, by their refusal to reenlist will defeat themselves. The Herald, it must be admitted, has often thrown light upon the real designs and expectations of the Federal Government, and, as a Federal organ, seems altogether to have cast the Tribunes into the shade. This must be a horrible pill for Greeley to swallow, but it is none the less certain and inevitable. Bennett, who, at the beginning of the war was mobbed for disloyalty, has now elbowed his way to the head of the faithful, and reads lectures to the Tribune upon patriotism and fidelity, with a front of grave and complacent virtue that is edifying to behold. The knave has thrust the fanatic to the wall, and is now, as he should be, the court journal of the meanest and most rascally despotism under the sun.
The Daily Dispatch: January 24, 1862., [Electronic resource], "Sawery" Bennett's opinion of old Abe. (search)
"Sawery" Bennett's opinion of old Abe. The New York Herald, of the 17th inst., has quite a lengthy editorial upon the recent change in the Cabinet, in the course of which Bennett lands Old Abe to the skies, and makes him out a second Washington. For the edification of our readers we copy the following concluding paragraphs. We congratulate the country that, in "Honest Abe Lincoln," we have a man who appreciated his official responsibilities and his official prerogatives of power, hiBennett lands Old Abe to the skies, and makes him out a second Washington. For the edification of our readers we copy the following concluding paragraphs. We congratulate the country that, in "Honest Abe Lincoln," we have a man who appreciated his official responsibilities and his official prerogatives of power, his promises to the country, and the Importance of as riot adhesion to his pledges. The retirement of Mr. Cameron from the War Office, is an event of the highest significance and encouragement in this broad view of the subject. There are rumor afloat of other impending Cabinet changes. If required to harmonize the Cabinet upon the President's conservative war policy-- "the integrity of the Union"--we have no doubt that these changes will be made. Let our abolition disorganizes be warned in ti
t is a circumstance not to be regarded as insignificant. As for the Times, it is a very powerful, yet a very inconsistent and unprincipled newspaper. It is an fickle as the New York Herald, and as unscrupulous. It is more respectable, indeed; but still it can sometimes descend very much in decency. Its attack on Messrs. Mason and Slidell, if properly represented, is that of a blackguard. it has one advantage of the Herald: that its editors have not been cowhided or booted; but then Bennett is known and accessible, while the editorial head of the Times is a myth, a thing intangible. It has neither a soul nor corporality. So that, while the Times is a paper of great energy, great ability, it has no sort of sensibility, no sense of justice, no character for consistancy, sincerity, or fair dealing. In cold shoulder to the South to-day is no guarantee that it will not be its warm defender to-morrow. The Times will in the ensuing months give us, no doubt, a vast deal of exquisi
r, at present impossible, in consequence of the large expenditures entailed by the war and the suspension of the banks, to procure sufficient for disbursements, and it has, therefore, become indispensably necessary that we should report to the issue of the United States notes. The Herald says it is the inaction of Congress, and not the Cabinet or President, or McClellan, that is now retarding those military operations, destined to crush out rebellion and prevent Southern recognition. Bennett cries out for the Congress to furnish the sinews of war and to make the necessary paper money without further delay. Gen. Siegel not Resigned. General Siegel has been in St. Louis since Thursday last, it, responded to a General Stalleck and left this troubled holed to take charge of his division, for Lebanon. The report made days says since, and telegraphed over the country, that General Siegel had no intention of resigning, but would remain in the service, was gratifying

She captured another bark, the instigator, bound to Newport, with a cargo of ore, but afterwards allowed her to proceed. There is much ill-feeling in England towards the Tuscarora. Bright, of Indiana, has been formally expelled from the Federal Senate, by a vote of 32 to Bright maintained an air of bold defiance to the last. He made a stirring speech, in which he appealed to his State to uphold her honor and his fair name. The galleries of the Senate were crowded throughout the speech, and much applause was elicited by the efforts of the expelled Senator. The Herald says a most powerful conspiracy exists in the Federal Congress, opposed to Lincoln and in favor of breaking up the Union. Bennett calls on Lincoln to take the responsibility of the present finances of the country and the defences. F.
General Thomas was about to invade East Tennessee at three different points, simultaneously, and march on to Knoxville, and if successful take possession of the railroad. A letter from the Dominican territory, dated Jan. 13th, says that that Republic is virtually dead, and the island is only a Spanish province. General Santa Anna has ruled as Captain General, in the name of the Queen of Spain. Representatives from Accomac and Northampton counties had arrived at Wheeling, Va. Bennett, in his Herald, says the rascally contractors have pocketed $50,000 of the public funds within the past nine months. The position and official authority of Gen. McClellan have in no way been modified since the advent of Secretary Stanton. The etiquette question at the Francis Court is viewed in Washington as unworthy of serious consideration, and of no political significance. Lincoln is laboring hard to facilitate preparations for an instant attack at all points, at any momen

Several of these men have stated that others, who were with them, had got off.--With a hope that some remedy may be applied to prevent this evil from increasing, I am, General, with respect, yours, &c. D. A. Griffith, Captain, >Provost Marshal. The world's Fair. Bennett's Herald says:"We observe that a space has been allotted to the Confederate States in the exhibition of all nations, to take place shortly in London. We therefore suggest that the best use to which it could be put would be the exhibition of Mason and Slidell. They would attract as much attention as any natural curiosities in the world, and the receipts of the exhibition would doubtless be materially influenced in consequence. They are probably in England by this time, and they ought not

Sanxay, of the Hines, who accompanied the remains of the officers to this city, a list of the killed and wounded in the Richmond and two or three other companies, received by the flag of Our entire loss in killed was eight and in wounded thirty. This is the statement of Dr. Cole, and it may be relied upon as correct. Richmond Blues. Killed--Capt. O. Jennings Wise, private Wm. H Bennett. Wounded--Lieut. Fred. Carter, (shoulder,) Sergeant Geo.
