There was grand Conservative meeting in
Washington the other night; but "Col. Tom
Florence" as that gentleman publicly avowed,
did not come there to make n speech. He
could not help saying, however, that there
"wcre influences in our midst which must he
"crushed OUT Here some one in the crowd
conveniently mentioned The Star newspaper Mr..
Florenees professional rival, whcreupon that
gentleman continued in u strain of scorching
significance: Il did not mention any names.
1T was viper, or the head of n viper,

famous for his business-like vituperative; but
even this withering speech feebly conveys the
spirit of the Washington meeting. Most of the
subsequent orators singled out that veteran
and venerable statesman, Mr.. Stevens, as the
mark of a magnificent spite, and, as it were,
the object OF an nndylng hatred, 10
both of which emotions, rs indulged by
the conservative class of our fellow citizens,
his talents and convictions are qualified at all
times to give active exercise. Another Colonel"
one Mr.. Zeilin from Philadelphia, arose and
thus swooped down upon the victim Stevens:
He (Stevens) was man not tit 10 live in any
community, for he was q demon, and was

that the allusion was not ont of place. Zap

manly and fearless fashion. We have it from
The Washington Intslii0encsr that, referring to
"Thad. Stevens the speaker said "Ile hated

proportion as he hated the Masonic fraternity
"years ago no measured his hatred of Andrew

speaker has received or expects to receive
hOnOrs or emOluments in the gift Of the Ex-
ecutive; but he proceeded with great correct
ness to remark that Mr. johnson was "made

" into the composition Of Mr., Stevens and to
assert and maintain that "he [JohnsOn]

"him as mighty oak.' did he,"
asked the speaker, referring to the Presidents
Western tour, "like William ID. Kelley, creep
under the table and sneak off tho platform
No! Tell me he has no moral couragc1
Thaddeus Stevens, &C., &c.' We have only
to fancy Mr. Stevens anathematizing the

his head, to find all that is dabolicnl and

LIREL.S And THE PRESS.

The Times. commenting on our former article,
says:
"what Tnr TRInusH means is simply this: that II
how fatally blasting to private character it may be-
should enjoy mpunity unless u can be proved that us
editor proprietor intended to do the wrong actually per
pctrated."
As this is not at all what we mean, VIC are
compelled to employ further illustrations:
Let us suppose that John Spike should post
up in the village bar-room or under the meet
ing-house shed. or at some other place of gen
eral resort. this notice:
"Zeekiah williams OF this town last Monday con
ycted at the Court Of Oyer and Tcrmincrof County.
of stealing and sent for i've years 10 tne otale
Prison" ~.
The law would very properly presume this
posting to have been made with Gbelous IN
tent. and would hold Spike to rigorous ac-
countabity therefor. The bare fact OF such
posting would create a strong presumption OF
malicious intent to dcfame and injure Williams,
which could only be rebutted by direct positive
evidence.
Now let us suppose that said identical para
graph were to appear in the regular reports of
judicial proceedings in The Times or in its
editorial summary of the news of the
day, would that presumption be legitimate
Would not every one know at once that the
paragraph had not been concocted by the
editor with malicious intent to defamc and in
lure the said Williams? And if the editor, being
sued for libel, should appear in court and prove,
I. That he had no knowledge whatever of the
aforesaid u. Williams till sued by him; .. That
this item of news was made up, with other
like news, by his assistant in that department
from regular report of judicial pro-
cecdings in the Court held in and for the
County aforesaid, as given in the journal
printed at its shirctown or county-seat; would
il not be- absurd, on such an uncOntradicted
state of facts, to convict the editor OF libel
and subject him to fine and imprisonment
therefor!
We ask for our vocation precisely that I'M
munity from vexatious and unjust legal annoy
! ance which il conceded to others. A lawyer
pleading for his client, prosecutor drawing
an Indictment, Judge charging a grand jury,
nay indeed be guilty of libel, though the law
protects him in saying as hard things as he
sees fit We ask it to protect editors so far as
not to presume them guilty of libel when judge,
Jury, lawyers witnesses, plaintiff and specta-
tors, knor that no libelous intent existed.
Mind that we do not desire that editors
shall be allowed to publish everything, even
though it he true. We have seen publications
of matters essentially private and personal that
would 10y no means be justified even by proof
that they were literally tue. But we do main
tain that newspapers may publish the current
news of the day without thereby subjecting
their editors to conviction as libeles

consideration from the Executive, and that no
part of the Presidents retnue have lost their
spontaneous talent for amusing Mr.. Thaddeus
Stevens. Washington holds them oil. this sad
little tea party of effete Conservatives; and they
are now about to contest with colored men at
the polls the government OF that unlimited
city. What change, to be sure! and what

wrath on the wigged head of that implacable
destroyer and indOmitable Africanizer, MIR.

was or should have been guarantee TO all
peaceable and loyal citizens Of safety and good
order. The national word is pledged, and 1T
must be kept. Correspondents write from
Texas that Quantrell is to be caught. and VIC
insist that it is the duty of the United States

him that like-minded ruflians may take
