These are but specimens of the way in which
the blockheads of the party press blunder and lie
about our position and the manner in which we
exert our influence There is nothing they dread
SO much as an indepe ndent press, and hence their
unceasing efforts to weaken its power by all sorts
Of stupid falsehoods. Do we state the truth clearly
and impartialy with respect to the movements, the
prospects, or the triumphs Of the whigsl Then
the cry is raised, cab! Bennett is sold to the
whigs!" Do we on the other hand, state with equal
clearness and impartiality the truth about the
Democratic prospects, movements, or triumphs !
Then again the cry is as fierceIy raised, " Oh !

We belong to no party-we can assal all parties
