were no help to me, withdrew, one after another. But the Log Cabin did afford some pecuniary aid, and he wrote to Weed in January, 1841, that he was beginning to feel quite snug and comfortable, and by the spring of that year he considered himself in a position to start the Tribune. But the New Yorker was a weight on his hands to the last. He gave its editorial conduct more largely to assistants in its last years, and tried hard to sell it, and its end came when it was superseded in September, 1841, by the weekly issue of the Tribune. He was then able to repay what was owing to subscribers who had paid in advance, although his books showed that $10,000 was due him from delinquents. These books, he says, he never opened again, and they were dissolved in smoke and flame when his office was burned in 1845. Greeley names four causes of the New Yorker's financial failure: That it was never properly advertised, that it was never really published, the credit system with subscribers

Has La Fontaine led you off altogether from the field of battle? The preface to Wright's translation bears date September, 1841. Meantime the apologetic, pro-slavery conduct of the Free American by a clerical successor of Torrey (Lib. 11: 82, 91), whom even he had to denounce, forced the Mass. Abolition Society to make a shift of securing Mr. Wright's services as editor once more in June, 1841 (Lib. 11.99). He was succeeded by Leavitt as above, and the paper became the Emancipator and Free American (Lib. 11: 191, 203). In 1842 Mr. Wright, in a desperate struggle with poverty, was trying personally to find purc

ing third-partyism. I spoke very plainly on the last topic, and made them both rather uneasy; for poor James evidently felt that he stood on a sandy foundation. In company with Luther Myrick, J. C. Jackson founded at Cazenovia, N. Y., in September, 1841, a third-party paper called the Madison County Abolitionist. Gerrit Smith had invited him to edit it, and contributed to his support (Lib. 11: 159; Mss. Sept. 29, 1841, J. S. Gibbons to W. L. G., and Oct. 9, 1841, J. C. Jackson to Abby Kelleer since your departure. It is without an organ, without funds, without agents, without publications (Ms. Oct. 1, 1844, W. L. G. to H. C. Wright). The Society, nevertheless, held its fourth annual meeting, and had Lib. 12.171. already, in September, 1841, at Mr. Garrison's instance, Lib. 12.47, 143, 155; Herald of Freedom, 8.129. authorized Henry C. Wright to go abroad as a sort of general missionary for the causes of peace, abolition, temperance, chastity, and a pure and equal Christianity

s. But I believe they have managed to steal a considerable sum from the State proper, which, together with an enormous tax on the Yankee squatters in the Panhandle, will keep them going for a few weeks. Governor (?) Pierpont has taken $27,000 which was deposited by the State in the Exchange Bank of Virginia, at Weston, Lewis county. There is a law in the State known as the "law for the distribution of the proceeds of the sale of public lands," due the State under the act of Congress, September, 1841, and amounting to $41,000. This fund will be accepted by the Pierpont dynasty; it has hitherto been steadily refused by the Government of Virginia. Washington, July 5. --The picket guard of the New York troops, stationed about five miles from the city, are being constantly fired at by scouting parties of Virginians.

He is possessed of superior natural ability, firm and determined in his opinions; but in private life has undeviatingly maintained the character of an amiable and accomplished gentleman. Lieutenant William Sharp, late United States Navy, was appointed from Virginia, and is a native of that State. He entered the service in September, 1841, and at the time of his resignation he had been 19 years in the service. Col. Andrew Jackson, one of the prisoners, was born in 1804, and was the first child in American who was named after Andrew Jackson, then a Judge in Tennessee. He is a native of North Carolina, and was educated at West Point. He was a favorite of General Jackson when President, and owes his rapid advancement to the partiality of his godfather. He is well known as Captain Bradford, of the United States Artill
