The Great Pouers.-The two symbols OF
the great aniagonistic powers of the age are
the Press and the Throne. In France the
Press was ietered and the Throne was burn
ed. Thought is the most free of all things
The expression Of it is next in Importance
The Rochester american says:
Popular impulses, new ideas, movements
toward freedom, progress and amelioration,
find their organ and instrument in the Press
the Throne is the symbol OF the despOtic
spirit. The Press is the voice and utter
ance OF the many. l, speaks the feeling 0!
the undistnguished multitude. When they
are oppressed il complains, rebukes, and il
need be, threatens. 1t brooks not the re-
straints of tyranny, and refuses 10 be silent
at the word Of command. Day by day il
converses with the people, enters their
houses, goes with them TO their labor, cheers
them with information, educa,cs their chill
dren. amusrs their solitude, and conc cntrates
their thoughts. 1t is the great channel aud
organ Of public opinion. United in IFS po-
tent columns. the insigniiicance Of individ
ual strength becomes part and parcel OF re-
>i>t!tsS massive energy. In France the
Throne set itself against the PrPss-Rnd fell.
| The event is significant. Europe beholds
il, on the one hand with fear and wonder
on the other with hope and cheerful enthus
siasm.
