W On the 23d of February, ls4s, Louis
Philippe fed in ignoble disguise from Paris,
not even daring to look after his eldest grand.
son. the Count de Paris, in whose favor he
had abdicated. The lad was taken to the
Chamber of Deputies by his estimable mother,
but the people would not listen to her, and
she also was forced to seek safety in fight.
In few days the Count, with his unces,
aunts and cousins, followed the dethroned
King and Queen into England, like sea birds
dashed by storm against a lighthouse.
Subsequently, the Orleans family was formally
banished from France, and in January, 1852,
Louis Napoleon, who had seized the reins Of
power, issued decree con6scating all their
vast estates. Since then the Count de Paris,
supported by the other members Of his house,
has watched and waited, as did his grand
father during the reign of Charles X, and at
last there are indications that the Orleans
family can again enter Paris, to aid iu its
defense, perhaps to assume command.

Emma Williams of Kansas City, who pro-
poses to give $4,000 for a home for fallen
women, if the people of Leavenworth or Kan
sas City will give $4,000, has been severely
dealt with by some papers, and writes as
follows

how to comfort one that nobly attempts to

An Important Case TO Newspaper
Publishers.

MessrS Editors In recent number Of
your paper and in the argus q. Patriot, |
saw an article copied from the St. Adams
Messenger, entitled, " An Important Case to
Publishers Of Newspapers"
Now Messrs., did it occur to you, or has it
occurred to you, the improperly Of attempt
ing to influence the judiciary Of the State, TO
shape their decision so as to favor your occu.
patton even at the sacrifice Of principle ns
old as the common law
think it would have been better for the
press to wait until the court had disposed Of
tho case, or else have entered an appearance
in the case and argued as friend Of the
court
The law is well settled in this country, and
in England, as to contribution and indemnity,
and the only question is, to which class does
the publisher Of libel belong. In England
the law is settled that the publisher Of a
newspaper cannot recover upon an indemnity
or for contribution, and in this country the
principle is recognized, aud the dstinc-
ton is the same as in England. The dis
tlncton is this;
When the act done is the subject of indictment
and punishment criminally, there no contribution
or indemnity can be had
But where the act done is under n claim NJ
right land not criminal) there contribution may
he had, and indemnity be enforced even though
the act be trespass.
The publisher of a libel is liable to in
dictment, and the act is a crime, which brings
the case within the first proposition, and no
indemnity can be had.
The publisher of a libel has no more right
to indemnity or contribution than has a house
burner, or a horse thief | do not put the
publisher Of a newspaper on a level with The
horse thief or house burner, but put thii
to illustrate the principle, though a man who
kno,oiagiy or carelessly publishes willu
and malicious libel against his neighbor, is
meaner man than a horse thief, and doc
more damage to a community.
Every man takes the consequences of hi
own acts, and the law makes no distinction
between criminals.
A free press and free speech are among thu
bulwarks of our republican institutions, bu
mind you, both must speak the truth, an,
they are only free 10 speak anil publish tn
truth.
Speaking the truth imposes no hardship
upon any one, ualesS he is giUea 10 lying
and should an editor, through inadvertenc
or otherwise, publish that which is not true
lot him make the amende honorable" b,

rarely called into court to answer in damages
and if he u.s. the damages would be mere
ly nominal, after he has published the cor
rection
The publisher Of newspaper, and thu
writer, or editor, and their hackers, are al
IN pari delicto, and neither can recover d
an indemnity against the other. 1t is agains
= public policy that there should be a recovery

~ Vice President ColGx has written an

any cherished by that party for several years,
and glances at the reasons therefor. such as
the disagreement among Republicans in re.

ing influences of the long enjoyment Of pow
er, Mr.. ColAx adds But their highest
hope is in the severe and sweeping criticisms
of Congress, during the recent session, by
prominent and influential Republican papers,

editors and correspondents, permanently
alternating tens of thousands as they trust.
and thus, if their theory is correct, convert.

nj the country require a greater volume oil
currency, the tendency must be to absorb
still larger and larger amount OF uoV'
crnment Bonds as the basis and security
If the circulating medium. Just where this
absorption of Bonds will cease no one can
now nredict but within q very brief period
moro than half of our total Bonded debt Will
be used as the basis Of our National curren-
ov With this bonds bearing four per cent
interest and the Banks paying back into the
Treasury in various forms OF taxation at least
one per cent if not more, on their aggregate
capital, we shall speedily see large proper,
tion of our debt funded in form that VIII
practically demand but three per cent. annual
interest from our National Treasury. 1t IS
therefore quito apparent that the National
Debt which the Democratic party has been
so ready to dishonor and repudiate will, under
the wise and faithful policy maintained by
the Republican party, be soon placed where
it will no longer be recognized as burden TO
the individual taxpayer or an obstruction to
the development of our national resources
and industries
Meanwhile the annual expenditures Of the
government under the Administration Of Gen.
Grant are reduced to the lowest practicable
point. There ore two large amounts Of ex-
pcnlituro over which Administrative discro'
ton can have no control. The one is the in
terest on the National Debt, the other is the
sum paid as Pensions to the scared and dis
abled veterans Of our late war. These obii-
cations must be met with prompiness and
cheerfulncss unless we are prepared on the
one hand to repudiate our obligations to the
men who risked their lives and lost their
health in defense Of the government, or unless
we are ready on the other hand to treat the
public creditors with downright dishonesty
and inaict lasting disgrace on the name OF
our country Excluding these two items
therefore as imperative and not within the
discretion Of the executive or legislative
branch Of the government, and we find th,

LaWlessness in Kentucky.

One of the items in Democratic political
capital this fall will be the assumed lawless
severity of Republican State Governments
in the South and all along the border But
aside from the disproof growing out of the
fact that North Carolina was carried by the
Democrats, is now the additional fact that
Governor Stevenson, of the intensely Demo
cratic State of Kentucky. has been led to
offer reward of $3.50 for the apprehension
and conviction of persons who have engaged
in burning the farmhouses of Republicans in
Woodford and Franklin counties, and $500
for the arrest and conviction of the white
murderers of negroes in the same counties
This really amounts to nothing as means
of protection. While terror reigns and the
life of the informer is han dly worth in.uring,
who will bring an accusation for $3.50 or
$500 against unscrupuleus assassins, banded
together for purposes the most felonious?
The prosecuted Republicans of Kentucky
are entitled to a prot ection somewhat more
complete and effcacious than the offering of
these petty rewards But the fact that they
are offered affords immeasurabe evidence
that there is an organized system of terror
ism in various parts of the South.

The difficulty of obtaining supplies of food
must be one of vast and growing importance
to both the contending armies. Hudaled
within very few square miles, there now
nightly lie on their arms million of French
and German soldiers. At the moderate
estimate of four pounds of average consump-
tion head each day including all needful
articles of diet the enormous quantity of two
thousand tons daily is required to feed these
gigantic hosts, who consume while they do
not produce. In month this amount swell.
to sixty thousand tons We must remember
meanwhile, that according to the accounts
received from all parts of France by the
Minister of Agriculture, the average yield
of rye and corn will be about one fourth less
than usual. The drouth is responsible for
the failure of other crops. 1t is said that
never within the memory of man, not even
Ia 1856, has the Loire been so low as at this
moment. Of course. this State of things is
like two edged sword that cuts both friend
and toe. There connot be doubt that If
the war continues many weeks this ques-
tion of food will become as .eriou. ard a.
pregnant OF momentous consequences as the
question of men and ammunition.

An irreperent Democratic editor says:
Senator Revels was preacher, and most
of the colored Office seekers, especially those
who are candidates for Congress, are preach
ers. Having learned the art of public talk
ing, they conceive the emselves to be peculiar
ly qualified for Congressional service, in
which talking always takes precedence Of
acting" There might be worse charges
made against people than their disposi-
tion to cntrust political power to preachers.
If the Democracy always did the same the
CHI yacter of their representatives in Con
gress would be immeasurably improved

It's great satisfaction to know that the
public debt decreased at the rate of 1888 a
minute every minute of last month. 1t is
much more pleasing and satisfactory to
know that the debt of the nation has been
decreased since the first of March nearly as
much as the entire year preceding. During
tration, the reduction was nearly SS7, ,0O0.-
600; during six months this year the reduc-
ton has been little over $50, 900, 900. 1t
is fearful to contemplate where our debt
would now stand had Seymour and his col
lowers been hoisted to the position now so
ably filled by Grant and his Cabinet.

The leading Democratic organ in the
West, the Chicago Times, thus slanders
United Germany and its King in a recent
issue:
One Of the canting Radical sheets say.
that in THE present conflict between the
Germans and the French there is a broad
contrast which we have not seen noticed.
The French marched forth at the beginning
OF the war, relying upon their own strength;
on the contrary, the German. have con-
stantly recognized the superintendence of a
divine Providence. King William. in his
latest telegram, does not forget to ascribe
praise where 1t belongs, saving what a
course events, ,oith Gods Guidance have
taken. This Is good. William Rex has
about as much belief in God as have nine
tenths of his countrymen; that is, no God
at all. The amount with which a God i,
believed in by this hoary old infdel would
not be sufficient to constitute Deity as large
or as powerful as an earthen doll which one
could conceal in the palm of his hand
In another paragraph it charges the Prus
sian army with cowardice, and its leader:
with a reckless disregard of life, and say:
that to conquer Prussia France requires moi
as many men a. its rival, but at least one
half as many. No wonder that the German.
OF America are severing their connection
with the Democratic party.
