“The rumor that Barnum and Maretzek had made friends with Mr. Bennett, and were willing to advertise in the Herald again, is, we are authorized to say, false in every respect; they will not admit Bennett into their councils until he has undergone the requisite probation; not until he has purged himself of all critical impurities will they admit him into their fold again.”
