OF the privileges that we. possessed, as we
believed, for our lives. and then to be an
Inheritance for our children. With all this
most wonderful history Of the past, to which

What a sarcasm there is in the reality of
the present Free Speech! The crowded

and the Capitol Prison at Washington an !

The boast Of Lord Chatham, that the King
of Engla dare not enter the meanest cot

cellar whose doors are not liable to be bro |

the Superintendent of Police. Such acts
would not be permitted under the reign Of |
Horatio Seymour! Loud and continued
cheers Free NJ en- 1t is the boast of those
who live under the protection of the law,
which bears proudly on its front, personal
freedom" that the person of the citizen is
always shielded from illegal arrests and le-
gal harm. And vet, even in despotic France,
where the civil law is supreme, which claims
no strict regards for personal rights OF the
citizen, where the great protecting writ Of
habeas corpus is unknown, the person of the
citizen is safer to-day than it is here -
There-Where there is no Constitution like
our own. EN- bod wing ard reproducing among
other great principles. the great assertion Of
the Petition OF Rights, that no person should
be deta:I ed in prison without having a
speedy trial-even there the grea est mele-
factors against the State. like OrSini. have a
safe and speedy trial and counsel can thuu-
der, as they dare not do here, against the
iniouiiies, the corruption and fyranuv of the
Government, without fear, and where an in

revolution which would shake even the I'm

where we believed was an inheritance of
all those great writs of freedom from our
English ancestors, who won them from King

The Democratic party must save the
country. The country appeals not only
to Democra'sc army, with the youthful
Democratic General at lis head to preserve
i, against the armed assaults Of rebels, but
to the Democratic party to guard It against
the no less dangerous attacks OF the fapat-
les and traitors in our midst. 1t rests with
the Democratic party to save this Govern
ment, which is drifting like ship. over the
open sea, rudderless, di-mantled. without
