The Printing Monopoly.

The n. O. Republican starts out occa-
sionally in q tilt against monopolists,
but is always brought up very suddenly
for evidence of its duplicitv. The truth
ia, there was never more outrageous
monopoly than that conferred upon Rad
ical newspapers by the Printing hill.
John Ray said he was ashamed of his
party for having passed it. 1t robs the
taxpayers of the State. it fosters corrup-
ton and servility to power. it injuries
private interests, it depriyes the laborer
of his full hire, by suppressing competi-
ton among newspapers, it DESTROYS the
value ol capital, and is altogether such
an outrage upon public and private JUS
tice that no man has ever been found III
the State, except the editor of the Re-
publican, who has had the ettrontcry to
uphold it as right or .justitiable in any
manner. The passage of the law W as an
outrage never before equa!lcd III legi>Ia-
ton, aud all who now, even by silence,
endorse its provisions, will yet see the
day when they will blush to own that
they did not denounce it. If every bust
ness of the State was monopolized to the
same extent by the Radical party, 10
power could restrain the fury Of the peo-
Pile. Very few realize the extent of the
outrage; very few can excuse the hatred
which consumes every kindly feeling to-
wards the authors aud endorsers of such
law, in the breast of one who daily
feels its deprivations very few can re-
cognize the justice of that hatred in the
heart of man W h" sees two. three and
four years of his life wasted in drudScry
for @ bare subsistence, when II" knows
that his friends would cheerfully and
voluntarily yield him generous support
in his business. but are prevented from
doing 50 by la,o!' God save the mark :
Han.iibal's oath of eternal hatred to
Rome, which he kept inviolatc. shall
teach us that hatred of an arrogant and
vindictive enemy is virtue among man
