A COMPLIMENTARY PARAGRAPH.

ia the absence from his post Of tho individual 10 whom
reference 10 made, and because the sentiments expressed are
true, we transfer TO our columns a portion Of an Article when
We find in the New Orleans Delta. After remarking upon the
change, which has, to a considerable degree. taken place all
owe, the country, concerning tho war between Russia and
Turkey, and after stating its own course from the beginning
the Delta continues:
"Similaf views had been thrown out in the Washington
Union by Mr.. Pryor, the present able editor Of the Richmond
Enquirer, but they were universally condemned; and their VI
,erance drew upon the party and its organ SO much odlnni,'hat
Mr.. Pryor's retirement from the paper was deemed necessa-
ry to appease the scnseless ciamor. Thus the Union lost an
editor whose place has not been supplied since. WHAT was
the nations loss was Virginia's gain. NJ. Pryor now
Yields his bold, vigorous and untrammclsd pen, in the CO.
lumus OF that paper which Sam Houston, intending To be
sarcastic, 80 highly complimenled, when he said that he could
remember when he thought it was The only newspaper in the
world. Now, the removal of Mr.. Pryor for expressing and
sustaining with ability his views on u public question, was q
bad precedent. As long as such clamOrs as these are needed,
tho Independence and usefulness Of public journalism will al.
yaya be seriously shackled. But il was worse still, when
.he views expressed by him proved to be just and far.sceing
Shen, in the lapse OF a few months, they came, in fact, 10 be
approved and reproduced in the columns uf the same journal
from which MIR. Pryor had retired on account OF the unpopu-
larily of his Ideas on this topic. This is I. curious revolu.
ton. The Washington Union hls lately published several
articles, in which il is maintained with great force OF arsu'
ment and earneBtness Of feeling, that the true policy oil inc
United States is to cultivate the friendship and seek the all'
bsen given that the entente cordial between France and q.
East, also aspIes to circumscribe The spread of the U ai,ed
States In the West"
