Free SaDeecFG.-There is no one thing
the copperheads have howled so loud and SO
long over as the suppression of Free Speech
and the Freedom Of the Press, by the pres
ent administration. The New York World
IN late issue says:
1--WE tell the Administration party, that
they must stop. We will have free speech!"
As an example of the hardships the cop
perheads suffer for the want of free speech
We copy the following from the last number
of the Milwaukee Neags. 1t is Of course on
ly modified expression of dislike. The ed
itor cannot indulge himself in a free decIara-
ton Of his views because the Freedom of
Speech is suppressed by the Lincoln tyran-
ny. Referring to President Lincoln, this
victim of oppression says:
THE embodiment Of all the sectional fan
atheism that curses the nation is now a can
didate for the Presidency. The history of
his reign the past four years is black with
the testimony Of his want of honesty and
integrity. He is the model of every coarse
!dhotiC Lhdt 0ou permits TO i've among s.
lie is the friend and patron of every man OF
easy public virtue whose presence befouls
community. He has braved popular opin-
ion by outrages upon the people which no
tyrant Of the Of world would have ventured
upon in the plentitude of absolute power
He has forfeited and abandoned all claims
upon the respect and confidence of the intel
ligent and the virtuous and seeks to accom-
plish his unhallowed purposes by bold APP
peals to the passions and the prejudices of
the ignorant and to the selfish interests of
the base and orrupt."

Death Of Chief-JnStiee fancy.

Roger Brooke fancy, Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of the United States, died i'll
Washington on Wednesday evening, Oct.
y, after an illness Of a few days Descend
ed from a family of English Roman Catholics
which settled in Maryland about the middle
of the seventeenth century, he was born in
Calvert County, Nd, March 16, 1777, and
was consequently in his eighty eighth year
at the time of his death. He was graduated
at Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa, in 1875,
admitted i'll 1899 to the bar Of his native
county, from which he was elected a dele
gate to the General Assembly, and i'll 1901
removed his residence to Frederick. In 1922
he removed to Baltimore, having previously
served as senator in the legislature Of the
State during a term of four years. He was
appointed Attorney General of Maryland iii
1927, and i'll 1881 was appointed Attorney
General of the United States by President
jackson. During the contest of the Admin
istration with the Bank of the United States,
upon the dismissal of Mr.. Duane from the
office of Secretary of the Treasury, Sept. 90,
on account of his refusal to remove the de-
posits, MIR. fancy was appointed his SUCCESS
or and Immediately ordered the transfer of
the deposits to the local banks selected by
him as the agents Of the Government The
Senate refused to confirm the nomination by
vote of % to IS, in June, 1884, In the
following year he was nominated by Presi-
dent Jackson as an associate justice of the
Supreme Court, but he was virtually reject
ed by the Senate, which indefinitely post
poned the consideration of the subject on the
last day of the term, Upon the death Of
Chief-J ustice Marshall, he was appointed his
successor by President Jackson, and was
confirmed by the Senate in March, 1886,
that body having changed its political rela-
q. tons He took his scat upon the Supreme
bench III 1887, and held the Office until the
time Of his death. Chief-Justice fancy
gained an unenviabe notoriety by his IA
nous decision in the bred Scott case, rul-
ing that negroes, whether slave or free,
were regarded for long time previous tC
the Declaration of Independence, as beings
of an inferior order, with no rights which
the white man was bound to respect, and
therefore were not included among the 'seo-
pie" i'll the terms of that instrument and
had no claims to be regarded as citizens Of
the United States.
