? zy' mt VCLUME IX.-NUMBER 1967 CHARLESTON WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 1, 1872. EIGHT DOLLARS A YEAR. THE STORY OF THE HERALD WONDERFUL CAREER OF THE LATE JAMES GOSDON BENNETT. His Kuri y Experience in Journalism Unparalleled Drudgery and Its Frails -How He Announced His Marriage Sir. Bennett's Personal Appearance Hts Lau will, die, ?tc. The death of James Gordon Bennett is the Journalistic sensation of the hour in New York. The Tribune, In noticing the event, gives an elaborate and exceedingly interest? ing account of tbo origin and growth ol the extraordinary newspaper which was the crea? tion of Mr. Bennett's peculiar genius. We quote: THS STORY OF TUB NEW YORK HERALD. The first number appeared on the 6th ol May, 1835, "price one cent, and for sale every? where." It was started without capital. Two youog printers, named Anderson ana Smith, agreed to print it and share the profits or losses. The firm name was James Gordon Bennett & Co. Another printer, of his own name, refused to accept a half Interest In the project, preferring to work at a salary, and so continued lor thirty-four years to serve the Journal which he saw grow from nothing into a magnificent property. The publication office and editorial room was a deep cellar at No. 20 Wall street, where Bennett transacted all tbe business of the little concern, received adver? tisements, sold copies of the paper, and wrote all the articles, reports and paragraphs behind a deal board. The late William Gowans, book? seller, wrote the following description ol a visit to the office soon alter the paper was established: '. Tbe proprietor, editor and vender was seated at his det>lc, bujily engaged writing, and appeareo to pay little or no atten? tion to me as I entered, un making known my object in coming In, he requested me to put my money down on the counter and help myself io a pap jr; ail this time be contin? uing bis writing derations. Tne office was a single oblong underground loom; Its furniture consisted of a counter, which served also as a desk constructed from two flour barrels, per? haps empty, standing apart from each other about lour feet, with a single plank covering both;a chair, placed in the centre, upon which sat the editor, busy at his vocation,'.-with an inkstand by hts right hand; on the end near? est the door were placed tbe papers lor sale." It was a small four-page sheet, Bold for one cent. There was very little news, for Bennett had no money to spend in collecting new?, but lt was bright, sharp, Insolent, personal conolse, and novel. Readers stood aghast at tn? boldness of this unknown Scotchman, who violated all the proprieties which newspapers had been accustomed to respect, and attacked private character with such reckless freedom and such wicked good humor. The paper Im? mediately became disreputable and soon be? came popular. It offended alf parues and all creeds. It was denounced from the Catholic pulpits for blasphemy. It shocked the sense ot decency ot all respectable Protestants. And of course people bought lt out of curiosity, and blushed to be seen reading it. Bennett had no assistant in writing it. He rose at flv? in the morning, and worked in his room until eight. Then he sat In his cellar until alter noon, sell? ing papers, writing advertisements for cus? tomers whose education had been neglected, and preparing copy tor the printers. Al one he went out Into the streets to pick up news and gossip. From four to six he was again at his counter, and the evening was spent gathering materials for reports In the next day's paper. He could not have gone through tnese sixteen or seventeen boure of drudgery had not his vigorous constitution been strengthened by the abstemious and reguiar habits by which his lite was always marked At the end ot five weeks the paper waa gain? ing headway, but still he did not meet ex .pentes. He now thou, ht, of telling the publlo every day what had been done in the stock market the day before. The money article, now such an Important feature ol every lead lng newspaper, was then unknown. Tne first ever published In the United States appeared In the Herald, June 13, 1835. At the end ol the third month the receipts equalled the ex? penditures, and Mr. Bennett hired his first re? porter. The next mooth the printing office was burned, and Anderson and Smith, dis? couraged, abandoned the enterprise. But the Herald was "raked out ol tbe ashes" and re-established, on August 31, at No. 202 Broadway, with Bennett as Bole proprietor, and the printer of bis own name almost his ?ole compositor. Thence the office was re? move., October 12, to No. 148 Nassau street, "a remarkably pious, theological und religious neighborhood," says the Herald ol that date, with the Bible Society, Tract Socieiy, Dr. Spring's Church, and Arthur Tappun's Anti? slavery Society lor surroundings. At this time Bennett advertised, editorially, for a business partner, and explained briefly bow the Herald hud been established and Its con? dition and prospects. The statement la a rev? elation of character as well as a history ot the paper. -'Heretofore," he says, UI have done everything myself-I have written my own editorials-I have written my own police re? port*-I have written my own Wall street re? ports-I have written my own squibs, crack? ers and jeux d'esprit. I have been my own clerk and accountant, posted my own books, made out my own bills, and generally attend? ed to the business In the office. Now, as the buslnes-. of the Herald ls rapidly Increasing, I should like to get some competent business person to become connected with me as a part owner and proprietor, one who- would devote the whole of his lime, aa I do mloe, to the business of ihe office. I will venture to say. wit ho ut any boa?u that lor the last six months I have written more matter lor the press, and collected, more facts of every kind, than any three editors in this city. Bur, in addition to this labor, tbe business coucerns ot such an establishment as the Herald is a little more than one man cand ?. I would, there? fore, like to nave a business partner lu wbom I could place entire confidence" (how like a man wno never had confidence lo any one but himself !) "and If he could bring into the concern capital sufficient to make certain im? provements, enlargements, eec, we could make tbe Herald in less than a year surpass every paper in the city And yield a clear an? nual Income of from $12.000 to $20,000." In seven years he had, uualded, made the In? come of the paper $100,000, and for many years Dasi lt bas been ten or flfieen times the nighest expectations of 1835. lu the tame ar? ticle be makes the ourlons statement that the Courier and Enquirer, "which Heaven knows can boast of little caDital and enterprise,'' had been started in 1829 with a debt of $50,000, and waa then (1845) "annually clearing $37, 000 over and above its expenses." In con? cluding his unsuccessful bia lor a partner, Bennett added: "There never was In New York such a field ol enterprise presented as * lerfe ls at this moment-and now ls the mo? ment to step in and plough, sow, p.ant and reap the virgin soil. The invention of Bleam power does not surpass the Invention cf the penny press." After its re-establishment, the Herald had a struggling but not doubiful existence. Its total cost for an edition of two thousand, which lt attained in'September, 1835, was fifty dollars a day. It contained only local news, tte chief topic of Interest being told In detail, the minor news condensed but never omitted. The greal|flre of December 16, 1835, gave the struggling Journalist an opportunity to display his pren liai talents In inls direcilon, and for many weeks alter - the fire the Herald was filled with accounts of the appearance of the ruin?, the incldenls of the conflagraron, tbe struggles ot merchants to retrieve tbelr losses, and the rebuiaing ol the burned o la? trie t.. Of the edition of December 21, misera? bly illustrated, li fi y thousand copies were (dinted. This method of relating in detail and a familiar style, events of purely local inter? est, was a new revelaron in Journalism, and Bennett found that it repaid him handsomely. Shortly after, In 1836, wben Helen Jewell was mysteriously murdered, he employed the same system and described the scene of the murder, the life ol the creature and her surroundings with a falthfulnesj of detail which would put to shame the Police Gazettes ol the present day. He did not hesitate to relate in like manner the several castigations which be suf? fered, nor even Ave y^ara later lo describe bis own marriage (June c, 1840) in the follow? ing grofeBque style : (Froia tb* New York Herald, Jone 1, ls-jo. j TO THE RB ADER-1 OP THE HERALD -DECLARATION OF LOVE-CAUGHT AT LAST-GOING TO BB MAR?

Bennett gives notice that he shalt h av. time to waste upon the editors who attacl him "until after marriage and the non moon." On the St n ot June, is io, the tr. riage was announced at the bead of ihe ed r?B? columns of the Herald, as follows: ll A UK: ED. On Saturday afternoon, the 6th Instant, by Rev. Dr. Powers, at st.

The success which followed In in creas 1 the circulai lon ot tbe Herald to nearly If i quite five thousand dally, established its val as an advertising medium. Dr. Brandreth, t pill-vender, was then the largeBt advertiser the couutry, and he made a contract with which Is said to have saved the paper from un tl mel y death, but the truth seems io ha been that ihe paper had forced Itself upon t oublie, and, naturally, advertisements cat to lt.

In 1841, the Income of the paper was at leaf $100,000, and the circulation about 20,0(1 coplee. The office was removed the sam year to Nassau aud Fulton streets. From lin time until ihe war the Herald gradually ii creased in circulation and value ns a property During the rebellion Hs circulation more tba doubled.

BENNETT'S PERSONAL APPEARANCE. In personal appearance Mr. Bennett was li many respects remarkable. He was consido rably over six feet la height, and down ti within a year or two he walked erect aud a straight aa an arrow, and with the statel, tread of an old soldier. He was slignt o figure, but strong limbed, and the strength, o bis arms was something remarkable. He wai very fond ol physical exercise, and generali; employed the early hours of dawn In running la Highland lashlon. around the walks at hi Fort Washington borne. His countenance li lils later years was not unprepossessing though a sirabismal affection gave a peculla appearance io hts large features. MR. BENNETT'S WILL. Mr. Bennett always betrayed a desire to re tain the ownership ot the Herald np to tlx moment ot bis death. But he was not un mindful of the duty ol disposing ot his proper ty. shortly before his wile and daugbtei went io Europe, the venerable journalis made a will which was satlslaciory to UK family. He dealt out his wealth with i princely hand, and each of his ihree heirs arc now ihe absolute owners of millions of dollars The tallowing are said to be the principal pro visions ol the will: To his Bon, James Gordon Bennett, he glvei the Herald establishment and the Herald buuolcg on Broadway, and also ihe property on Fulton, Ann and Naseau streets, formerly the site o? the Herald, lt is Bald that ibe will also provides that young Mr. Bennett sba! nut sell the Herald, and ibat ll shall remain ic ihe possession of the family. To his widow he gives ihe mansion, cornet ol Tulrty-elghih street and Fifth avenue, with oiber real estate tip-town. To bis daughter, Miss Jeannette Bennet t. he gives his mauslou and grounds on Washing lou Heights, and also some personal properly and mementoes. The above are said to be the provisions ol the will made by Mr. Bennett a few weeks be? fore his wife salted for Europe. Il ls asserted that he has neither altered it nor made another will. The whole period of bis recent illue.-i was used by him solely to prepare for his lust end. Miss Jeannette Bennett ls now about eigh? teen years ol age. Her father and brother literally doted upon her. She was educated at the Couvent of ihe 8acred Heait-and 80 anx? ious was young Mr. Bennett to have her re? main there, ihat when a governess whom he had employed sent her to a different institu? tion in nls absence, he discharged the tutor and took Miss Jeannette back to ihe sisters. Mrs. Bennett, who has lor several years past redded In Italy, ls hurrying across the conti? nent of Europe to tako the first steamer for this city at the nearest seaport. But phe has tarried too long, aqd will not Kee phe light ot his eyes nor hear lb,e tone of his voice ar y more. -m i ?sp? i * ROUND DANCING.-The following resolution was unanimously adopted by the Protestant Episcopal Council at Noriolk a few days since, upon the recommendaiion of the bishop: Resolved, Tnat in the Judgment of this coun? cil all members of ibis church should discoun? tenance the practice of promiscuous round dancing, ami our ministers, by l heir pastoral influence, and by faithfully executing the canons of the church bearing upon tbe sub? ject, should discourage and restrain it.

Committees ot tne Democratic and Liberal Republican State Conventions are In confer? ence to-day. WILMINGTON. June 6. The Congressional Conservative Convention renominated Waddell by acclamation, and while no positive r?solutions were passed In endorsement ol the Cincinnati movement, the sentiment io lavor of Greeley and Brown la evidently paramount. Tne resolutions Insist j strenuously upon a change. Among the reso? lutions was the following: Resolved, That we congratulate the country upon the favorable prospects o? the titter de? feat ot military despotism and official corrup? tion in the administration of the General Gov? ernment. Political Notes. -The Democratic county conventions of I Warren, Garrard. Hancock and Metcalfe Coun ties. Kentucky, were held last week, aud all adopted resolutions favoring the liberal move? ment. -General Barnum, chairman of the soldiers' and sailors' national committee of 1868, writes to the New York Tribune lhat he has received a surprisingly large number of responses (rom old comrades repudiating the Philade phla no? mination, In reply to the circular dispatched bv him prior to the meeting of the Cincinnati Convention. -Not a Democratic Journal In Florida (says the Jacksonville Republican) advocates the nomination of a new ticket at Baltimore. With the exception of the Marianna Courier, which is non-committal, awaiting the result of j the convention, they all urge the endorse? ment by ihe Baltimore Convention of the Cin? cinnati nominations. -The New Yorker Journal gives a list show? ing the political attitude ol' Its German-Ameri? can exchanges as follows: Democratic papers tor Greeley and Brown, ihiny; Republican pa? pers lor Greeley and Brown twenty-six; Dem? ocratic papers against Greeley lour; Republi? can papers against Greeley nine; on the leuce, two. -The recent letter of General Bradley T. Johnson, lormerly of Marxland, now of Vir? ginia, ad vlf. lug the complete Identification ol lue Southern cause with tne liberal movement as represented by Greeley aud Brown, is ac? cepted in Virginia us an offset to the Mosby endorsement ol Grant. He concludes his let? ter in MN vigorous fa-Moo: "We can give Greeley 120 votes, and ouly require 60 votes irom the North or Weat to elect him. It the Democracy will give him a heany support his chances are first rate. A separate Democratic nomination means a divided South, an utterly overwhelming Radical North, and anarchy ai the end off-xir years more o? military rule. I sincerely think lt ls more limn folly-it Is ciiro Inal-to countenance such a thing. Unite on Greeley, and we elect him." THE DELINQUENT TAXES. The Marlon Crescent says: "No sales were made ot 'delinquent landa* on last Monday. The entire day was occupied in receiving ihe taxes due on some of these. We learn thai nearly two thousand dollars was collected by ihe county treasurer from parlies who thus came up at the last moment." 'Ihe Columbia Uulou says: "The crowd around the auctioneer's stand in front ol Courthouse Square yesterday, on th? occasion of ihe continuance of me sales of delinquent and forfeited lands, waa not a large oue. Bid? ding was exceedingly Blow, and ut email figures. It. ls understood the sales are to be continued fr.>m day to day until all advertised shall have been disposed ul." The Columbia Phceulx says: "Taxes are hoing promptly paid lu York. Sixteen parts ol' tracts ol land were sold on Monday, amount lug In the aggregate to $207 57. No forfeited land was sold."

HORACE GREELEY AS A PRESENT TAKER, Perhaps no circumstance could more fitting? ly Illustrate Ihe difference between the char? acter of Mr. Greeley and the present Incum? bent of the White House than the following story, the trutb of which is vouched lor by Mr. John Sumner, a batter, doing buslnees In Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn, and from whom ll was received by a reporter: In 1851, the hatters employed by Mr. Genio, the Broadway hatter, struck for higher wages, and, being refused, started an independent hat shop of their own, on the co-operative principle, while Mr. Genln employed a num? ber of men called "scabs" bv tuc tradesmen to dil their places. An article appeared In the Tribune endorsing the cause of tbe men who struck, and on the following day a committee of men, of which Mr. Sumuer was chairman, was appointed to walt on Mr. Greeley and thank him for bis article, Tne committee waited on him and perform? ed their mission, and while doing so one of tne members, unnoticed by Mr. Greeley, man? aged to get hold of bis while hat and take ihe size of lt, and then took their leave. A few days afterward the same committee came back willi a magnidceni hat, ihe production ol tbe best workmen In the shop, and putting it on tbe philosopher's head as he sat at his desk, asked him bow be liked lt. Mr. Greeley looked Ht himself In the glass, looked at tue hat, and declared lt the lest, hal he had ever worn; and now, said be, "Gentlemen, what's your price lor this hal?" Tue ommiuee, said they didn't intend to charge bim anything for the hat, that lt. was Intended as a Blight token of | their grail) tide for tils services?In t heir cause. "I cau't accept the hat," said Mr. Greeley, turtling lo his desk, "unless I pay for lt. What I did I did lor principle, and not for j presents. If you will iel me how much money tue hat is worin, I would like to take it, for I like ihe hui; but If you don't do that, you can take lt away with you again." Cor? nered thus, ihe committee had no option but to name a price for tue bat, which they fixed at eight dollars. Mr. Greeley bought tbe hat at that price, with evident Fail-faction, and wore it lor several tears afterwards. THE STATE DEMOCRATIC CONTEN? TION. Greenville Tor Greeley and Brown.

GREELEY ON WHITE AND BLACK SCHOOLS. During his recent address lo the colored people of Poughkeepsie, New York, Mr. Gree? ley gave them some advice on the school ques? tion. He said : Ii I were a black man, I should not ask for j a separate school, yell should still say ll tbe whites choose to have separate scliuols I should not object to it. I should only ask that the schools for my children should oe made os good, us efficient, as the schools provlied for other men's children. Then, if the inujorliy chOBe that the minority should be educaied In separate schools, I would say, ' Gentlemen, be it as you please; I have uo choice In the matier." A gentleman or lady never discusses the question, Was lt proper to refuse me an invitation IQ my neighbor's parly ? He or she accepts ihe lac:, und leis the reason take care of Itself. Precisely so with regard to religious fraternity or associations tor maintenance ol divine worship. I would advise the colored race never to make a distinction, and never to refuse one. il the whites choose that the blacks shall not be members on equal terms of general congregations, I would accept ex? clusive congregations, not as my choice, but us tbe choice of ihe dominant race." A MASSACRE BY SAVAGES. SIN FRANCISCO, June 5. The rumor of the capture by ihe natives of Solomon's Island of the schooner Ogle and Ihe massacre of Captain Bird, late ot Massachu? setts, and his crew, has been tully confirmed. GLAD TTDinGS FROM. THE MOUN? TAINS. Ilarrah for the W hi tr-Coated Pblloso pher I-The Improvements In Spartan burg-Sales of Real Estate. [FROM IN OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT.] SPARTAN nu RU, June 3. I perceive that you have no special reports from a place of so much consequence In the world as to require a standing army o? two hundred or more of Uncle Grant's peta to keep the boisterous mountaineers in subjection, and, therefore, I thought a few Unes might not be unacceptable, as they will come only from an occasional and a voluntary corres? pondent. To-day being our sales-day, and In the midst ot a working season, there was but ? small turnout irom the country, but what few were' here represent their wheat crops as good and that some are harvesting. Most of ) inn wheat ls low but with apparently heavy heads. The long drought continues, and has almost caused a perfect failure ol the oat crop. Cotton appears to be In a thirsty condition, weakly and rather scattering. Our gardens are much Injured and will soon be of no value unless an early rain falls. Our politics, as far as appearances are seen and words uttered, are of the Red, White and Blue, or rather all White, as Mr. Greeley seems tne one man for all. Upon all tongues there ls a God gram! that he may be in the White House in March next, with a white hat, white,j coat, and, more than ali, a white and pure heart. A lew town lots sold at public outcry by the county commissioners at folland fair prices. One near the Courthouse, twenty-four by ninety feet, with no outside privileges, sold lor $1100. Three others In rear or the Court? house, of smaller dimensions, from $330 to $160, all unimproved. Properly ls advanclug,. and we cannot wonder os the trowel of the bricklayer and the hammer ol the carpenter are hear? around us in every quarter, aud the eye ia greeted with not only com louons rows of | new and handsome buildings, but ol' old ones made apparently new by the skill and taste of master painters and boss wb lie washers. _ M AB BU.
