evident that nearly every reformer had a

l.lberiy of the 1'ro.s.

It iiM'tl lo Itu tlio buar-t til' the Anu-ri

can people that tlio prr.ss was lYce, ami .the defender of the public liberty. It

was then .-aid that tyranny euuld not

meet and eoiiijiier the will of the people

expressed by the press and the ballot,

and thai the liberty of the citizen was safe so lonr as we had a free press. It

was also said in those antiquated times,

that none but tyrants and despots feared

the inlluenec of the press, ind the leader of a party declared opinion should be as free as air, as ]onLT as the press wa- left

lo combat error. That is come to be an exploded notion.

lhirini: the past decade, it has come to I be the prevailing custom to upprcss pa-

pcrs that do not coincide in entiment and

expression, with the dominant partv. and

hundreds of presses have been silenced

I ou the theory that error of opinion was dangerous to the community.

.Such deeds might have la en tolerated

during a civil war. much better than when the country is in a state of pro-

found peace. Hut even in a state of war.

it is questionable whether the act of sup

pression is not a greater evil than that

A disin

tegrated country is more to be desired

than the entire ami utter loss of liberty.

Better that each State should set up its

own independent and separate govern

ment. than that a military despotism should crush out the liberty, and trample

under foot the rights of the people. Better that a state of savagism should reign,

in which the law of the strongest should

prevail, than that one man, should sway the scepter over enslaved people.

lo the latter has this country been

tending, since the opening of the rebel

lion. Tt cannot be concealed even by

the sophistry of the most astute .Jacobin

demagogues, that we are drifting towards a consolidated despotism that we are

fast losing sight of those right! \vj once regarded as sacred e»,„,

submit to be

deprived of privileges which we once

honestly swore no man living should take

from us that we tamely .submit to en

croachments upon our mojt sacred rights, that if otiered to our fathers, would have precipitated a revolution.

in no one thing is this eh.uiVtfof fj'e't* and disposition more apparent thau in

the suppression of the public newspapers.

W hen, in a former age, publisher tran

scended the bounds of decency or of

truth, he was compelled to answer in

court for the offence. Now lie is w'aited

on by a sergeant and squad of soldiers,

under order from a military chieftain, and

the matter is summarily disposed of bv closing the oflr.-y and imprisoning the of-

sian Cabinet. 11 is nothiiii Jess th an an t, ,. .t -p .1 ,• ... teiulti at the will ol the coiumanditi" ofmvitattoii to I" r.ilift- mill

have beeu furnished with the particulars of a most disgraceful row that occurred at tireeneastle ou the night of the lib. It seems that members of the good Templars and members of theliraud Army of the republic left Bloomingtoii on the Fourth to take part in the celebration of the day at reeneastle. Oil the way to their destination it was discovered that some of the parties had liquor, which they were drinking pretty freely. This caused considerable feeling but nothing was said until the arrival of the excursionists at (.!reeneastle.

The above facts come to us from an undoubted source, and are made public at the request of several of the best citizens of Bloomingtoii. We are glad to know that the Templar organization is in no manner responsible for the disgrace but will at once take steps to vindicate its honor from the assaults made upon it by unworthy members.—-.V(C

A Urniv/ l.iib/rr.

A gang of thieves for the past two or three months have beeu committing their depredations along the line of the New Albany and Chicago Railroad. Last week stores and houses at Clovcrdalc. Carpciitersville and (losport were enterid and goods and money to a considerable amount taken. Tt appears that all these robberies were committed by the same gang, who manage their stealing affairs with the most consummate skill. The theater of their operations seems to extend from Salem to Lafayette, and notwithstanding over twentv bold robberies.

During the day the drinking was kept I ^intelligence ..I their up bv a portion of the Ulooniiugton I

crowd and iu the evening culminated iu

an open and disgraceful row. in which

pic took an active part. During tl.e me-

lee James Slocum was shot, Marshal Ap- I

plegate badly beaten, and John tiall had his car split, open with a stoue thrown by one of the belligerents. Many others wero iiiyi-o or luss beaten. Vr^X

The affair, on account of its disgraceful results, created great excitement both at (!reeneastle and Blootningtoti. particularly at the latter place, where the offending parties reside. For a number of Good Templars to start out ou a celebration, and a portion of them to wind up the festivities of the day by a big drunk and scaudalous row, is to s.iy the least, of! it, reprehensible iu the highest degree and we understand that the lodge of Templars iu Blooiningtou promptly and very rightly expelled all those members who took part in the disgraceful affair. We hav? information implicating certain very sedate citizens of reeneastle iu this row. but we forbear making it public.

A portion of the Templars at Bloomitigtoti our information states, who did not desire to go to (!reeneastle, procured two kegs of beer, four boxes of ale, and one gallon of whisky, and thus "fixed |M"ut cuiicU UJ CtlO \VOO(is lor tllC pUT* pose of holding a picnic of their own.
