Daily Commercial.
It is certainly much yexed question
whsther the freedom of the Press be curse
or . blessing. Whether it is net rather a
curse than blessing that editors are per-
mitted to give utterance to any and all Bit
terness, whether directed against govern
ment or individuals. We make the above
extract moro as text than as solitary or
unusual example oe the stuff with which
our journals are unfortunately crowded.
We do not charge the Commercial with
being more to blame than others. In trr,tl
the above extract is not SO bitter as r,auy
which too often scandalize the press. ant
engender bitterness. sectional AMI. deadly
How can two sections of our country eve
hope to be at peace so long as the iournal
of the country continue to !nake such fling
at them. We cannot cer.sure the Northern
pres only, for we, unfortunately, have man!
of the same factious spirit in the South
And it is from such sources we have mos
to fear. The press disseminates its seed
of good or evil throughout the entire ccun
try. Not only among the highly refnet
and educated, but they reach also the mas
ses--they engender bitterness which i
uarebuked by knowledge or wisdom and i
I.egr.vatsd By ignos.ncs. From .hi. ei.s,
has proceeded the raids and treasonous at
tacks heretofore made by northern fanatic
upon the Sonth. Is not the press great,
to blame in this matter?
