We want freedom With that, all would go well.
To achieve this grand disideratum should be the
principal object Of that body which affects to repre-
sent tie public. We shall get it some day, and with
the socaed representatives rests the alternative OF
acquiring it orus by constitutional mears leaving
it 10 be eventually taken by more summary pro
cess. One or other must be done, and that right
early. The times brook no delay. Under ordinary
crcl instances we might be c0ntented to nger along
in the semi death, social and political, which Eng
lard appears to consider the proper condition for
her colonial otsprng but this torpid CONDITION, dis
graceful to us as men, and doubly dsgraceful to US
as representatives Of the Wanted race OF Anglo
Saxons is utterly incompatible with our present
condition We must be free. The main duty of our
council will be to point out the mode.
At present we are mere slaves subject to the mis-
rule, and bowling to the caprices of an irresponsible
nominee, who bitter bitter experience has taught
may be both very bad and very silly man. We
arc slaves TO all intents and purposes and our chains
are not the less calling because they are gilt With
some fancjful mockcry Of freedom. How true Is
this, when the very body Of whose composition we
now speak, the Legislative Council y ltsela-that
deliberative assembly" to whom we ought to look
as the constitutional means of redress for ali our
grievances--that body upon which, as men knowing
what freedom is, we ought to be able Immediately
to rely, Is nothing better than an assembly dclbe-
rately packed Of squatters and nominees, where the
peoples voice is scarcely heard, aud where their
few real representatives are constantly outyoted
upon every great question, by the vote giving ma
chimes Of the nominee master OF this nation OF slaves
All this will have to change. The present state
Of things cannot last A government may linger on,
utterly unpopular, for while; but the insolent de-
hance Of public opinion, which is the grand charnc
terstic Of our present executive, carries within itself
the seeds Of is own destruction and the destruction
too, of the vile system which could have organized IT,
change must come, and we call upon the Legisla-
tpre of Victoria seriously to beware that it come
peacefully. We want no outbreak. We hate blood
shed, whether the single murder Of the gallows, or
the Wholesale murders Of the melee but we cannot
aways continue race Of slaves, and the most abject
soul amongst us may rest assured that we shall not.
We write thus principally for the satisfaction Of
those mealy mouthed politicians who cannot bear
to speak above their BREATH for those tmd toterers
who look upon every bold stride in the march Of
reedt as social revolution-a shaking Of tho very
fabric Of society; and who tremble at o reform,
oNever slight, With o childish fear that tho next

We cannot agree to rescue the T5ibnae
from impending dissolution by raising the price
Of newspapers 10 three cents. The arguments
ard himself, were very well put. 1t is beyond
doubt that such paper as the HERALD would
be cheap Ut three cents, in proportion to other
commodities; but We can live by selling it at
two, and we will not tax the public an addi-
tional cent. The request made to US by Messrs.
Greeley and McElrath, through their agent, Was
very politely worded. 1t grieves US to be COM
PEELED to reply in the negative. We must do
so, however; and in addition to the pain it gives
rs to disoblige our neighbors, we must bear pa
tiently all the i'll temper which their disappoint-
mert provokcs. In like manner, we must make
cur mind up to stand whatever asperity the
misfortunes Of the Times may give to its tone.
About year ago II boasted Of q circulation Of
twenty five thousand ii now claims twenty
three. So rapid decline, at the outset Of its
career, can hardly fail to create dismay in the
minds of its proprietors; and it is not matter
Of surprise that they should evince particular
soreness on the subject. In point of fact both
the TriJaae and Times have, by their own
confession, reached very critical point in
their career. If the price of papers cannot be
increased something must be done to break
down the HERALD. or both will be driven to
choose between miserable death and an exist
ence protracted at the expense of their owners
In consideration Of these peculiar circum-
stances we ore disposed to view the abuse Of
our contemporaries with more composure than
we might otherwise have felt. Something must
be forgiven to the pangs of disappointment and
the acute misery OF declining fortune. Hence,
when the Tribune tells us that it rejoices over
the verdict in the Fry case, we at once make
allowance for the satisfaction which it must
| have derived from witnessing our injury, and
we find nothing remaining to be ascribed to an
honest sympathy with the motives Of the jury
| According TO its own statement the Tribune
| has suffered more from libel suits than any
| other journal in the city--a fact by no means
surprising to those who have noticed its usual
violence oflanguage and brutality oftone. Many
