FREE SPEECH IN Souri, C~ARoLINA.-In France, if
a newspaper editor attacks tho government, or the
present political and social arrangement, he re-
|ceiyes o warning il he repeats ii, he receives a
second warning and i. he still persisssS his paper
is silenced. but be may continue to talk about ir
as he pleases. provided he does not ate mpt TO
create a disturbance or riot. In Russia, also, q
man may talk on the subject Of serfdom as be
pleases without punishment, and SO in most if not
all, of the despotisms of Europe. But in the AZ
rican kingdom of Dahomey, and The American Re-
public of South Carolina, free speech, even in the
most modified form. is not allowed.
James Power, an lrisbman by birth, formerly
employed IN Philadelphia as a stonc-custer has re-
Gently had ;his African-Carolina regulation dem.
onstrated on his person, although probably not to
his satisfaction. He has been at work at his trade
IN Columbia, South Carolina, and while there ex-
pressed his opinion somewhat freely as to the
difference between free and slave labor, and fer
this be was whipped with thirty nine lashes, and
clothed with a complete suit Of tar and feathers.
MIR. Power is not an abolitionis, not eysn a Black
Republican, or a British Wing but q sound ad.
ministration Democrat, who voted for that super
line Democrat, Thomas B.. Florence, of Pbiladel-
phia. Notwithstanding this, his whippingw as Sc
we're, and a negro was obliged to give the lashes
on the sufferers bare body, he was then tarred
ana ieathered. This was done in view of the
members Of the Legislature, AID thousands of
spectators. The railroad train was STOPPED ill the
ceremony was concluded, and he was then taken
to Charleston. \ master mechanic Of Charleston
gave him a cup Of coffee and a biscuit, and for

mercies of a mob. n week ago last Saturday he
was put on the s;ea .ner for New York, where he
has arrived. According to his own representa-
tions the languaI % he uttered was m3re childish
than dangerous. lie has frequently commended
that white mechanics should be employed, and ne
groes kept to the fields and swamps.
Mr.. Power, it will DO seen, was not opposed to
slavery. probably he thinks it ought to be extern
ded to oil the territories. His mistake was that
he thought it a matter of color entirely, and did
not know tina. Southern gentlemen lay it down as
a principle that capital should Opn its labor and
that working men have no right to opinions. South
Carolina, let us remember, is the most reliable
Democratic State in the Union.

but for two years and more a clerk in the dry

He denied 1t and had q trial. No proof was found
but he was threatened to be hung by a mob if he
did not leave the South. His trunk had been
opened and searched, and his money, about 500
stolen. His prison bill was over SIS, which thew
