Of newspapers, and refusing to exempt editors
even voting down an amendment that was
offered exempting one editor OF. every paper.y
If the freedom and influence Of the press are
OF IS much Importance as the majority conced

proving their appreciation of it. What is D
newspaper without an editor? It is the business
Of journeymen printers merely to Put in type
what editors put in their hands, and to refuse
exemption to editors is simply to suppress all
newspapers. We venture to say that the press
of the South has given an impetus to this
Revolution, in the beginning, and power IN
its progress, second only to that achived by our
arms. 1t has been the very light and life of
the Southern cause, and now the Senate pur.
poses to put out this light extinguish this life,
and leave the people in the darkness and silence

action Of the Senate, and secure to the people,
by the exemption of editors, that powerful

President Davis' Message In England.
The m sssage of President Davis to Congress
had reached England, and was variously com
mented on by the press. The London Times
in an editorial on the message, says:
"We cannot deny him the credit Of being as
moderate in prosperity as he has shown him.
self bold, determined and unyielding in adver
sity."4a - - .sas ss1gE as.afss4 -~-.s#stss s
1t then adds: at
"We read with much pleasure the measured
and statesman-like language in which the
southern President pays a well>earned tribute
to the gallantry and good conduo. of his troops,
depicres the desolating war, and expresses
confidence of the final triumph in the desper-
ate struggle against despotic usurpation." aobu
After pointing to the horrors which may be
expected from President Davis threatened
retaliatory measures, to the exigencies which
require an extension Of the CONSUMPTION, and to
the dangers which the South run if they fail to
conciliate the Indians of their frontier, the Times
article concludes as follows:
s'Yet in such a situation they are able to speak
and act with moderation and dignity. In
the midst of reverses they can look forward
with confidence to success they can contemplate
and look forward to the possibility of loss and
failure. Such men would seem worthy of a
better destiny than to be dragged at the chariot
whe@ls of q conauering democracy, aud live
under perpetual reign ofterror."
