True BOlIrnalSSn,

At no time in tho history of our
country has patty focling run SO high,
or 30 much Of bitterness been
stirred up, as at the present day, ard
1T is easy to understand how this feel
ing, and spirit, should have crcpt into
the public journals, so in.cparably are
they associated with, and in the main
representatives of, political parties
and clques.
while we admire indefatigable
zeal, aud a spirit Of nice discrimipa-
tion, in the field Of journalisn, We
shall ever feel called upon to oonsure
and condemn that journal which
serves political party merely us n
tool, and knows 10 interest save that
of its political mastcrs.
There are certain marked charac.
tcristics that ought to distinguish b

istics.
Personalities, acrimony, envy ings,
jealousies, these Low characterize
nearly every public Journal that falls
into our haIds, and particularly is
this the case With the >u.callot orgaps
of the Republic.u party. tending in a
great measure to Keep alive sectional
hatred, and open afrcsh the wounds Of
civil strife. How far this apirit falls
short of attaining the true object of
journalism, al ol server of the tunes
can easily conclude.
We long fr tho time when that
purity and high ,"ne viii Ic,vade the

gone by. Then will it return to it's
proper destiny, and serve onoe more
