The late attack Of The stipend presses

The late attack Of The stipend presses Of
the canal commissioners upon the demo.
cratic members Of The legislature, who ad.
vocated the passage Of The law aushorising
the election OF the canal commissioners by
the people, 10 one Of the strongest argu.
ments in favor Of the measure, that can be
brough, forward. The press should be uu-
tram melled, and independent Of all official
influence, or its glory is departed. We
all know what an influence we'll conduct.

rights and Of our liberty, and il any aspir-

our republican form OF government, il will
be through The venelisy Of The press. Know.

have in their late appointments, taken good
care 10 secure the aid Of as many papers in

and several Others who have had their par.

of This stamp. and this alone, that the abuse
,,ha. has been hcaped upon the indie
penden. democrats Of The Legislatures; who
have boldly stood forth in defence of the
rights of the people, while the other demo.
cratic papers Of the state, which are no,
under the immediate control, by interest, o.
the commissioner or their friends, have
nobly sustained them in their work Of re-
form, and SO will The people, because they
are not p"rchaseable property, and look
10 the interest Of The whole, in making uE
