Dir. MADISON expressed the following senti-
ment in reference to the freedom OF the press,
which, in view OF the recent outTages committed

own political friends, is erninently worthy OF
consideration. lie said:
Unconstitutional power over the press ought
more than any other to produce universal alarm
