THE OLD STORY.

The Virginia Enterprise appears to
have adopted the tactics OF the cutie
fish. 1t is thorough party hack aud
its party is in danger. In order to facili-
tate the escape of its clique from awk-
ward complications, it is endeavoring to
befog the real live issues OF the day, in
murky cloud of intangible seneralties.
1t is leaving the questions of finance, the
common school system, the liberty Of the
press, the exposure and proper punish
ment of official criminals, to take care OF
themselves, and stirs up the negro again,
who it affects to believe is 10 danger. In
its issue of the 18th inst, it publishes an
article on white Leagues" 1t says it
derives its information "from one OF its
most reliable aud valuable Eastern ex-
changes" AS it gives nc name, which
would have been much easier and
shorter, we expect it is the Washington
Chronicle or Republican; papers which
are the organs of the ring and the nd.
ministration. On the authority OF one
of those delectable sheets, the Enterprise
conjures up fearful spectre of white
atrocity and caucasian deyilishness.
This kind of thing is pretty we'll worn
out. At the approach OF every election
the same dismal tale has been told of Ku
Kluk and other bugbears, and now it is q
white mans league that is to scare voters
into supporting corruption, ring thieves
and press gaggers. The fact is, thai
these fellows have had their sway long
enough. If tree is to be judged by its
fruits, look at the crop that is produced
in South Carolina, in Georgia before the
carpet-baggers were driven out, in
Louisiana, in Arkansas, in Florida,
and in every Southern State wherein
the carpet-bag rule prevails. There is
the chosen home of knaves, thieves and
corruption of the vllest and oppressive
character. The deeds of these rascals
speak for themselves, the principal fea'
lures being ruin, bankruptcy and carni
val of crime. Yet, here comes an apol-
ogist in the State of Nevada who, quot
ing from the organs OF detected male.
factors, appeals to the basest and wors
passions, while it totally ignores til,
social chaos, the soul and body destoy
ing misery, caused by the very men tina
it defends. At this time, when it Is
matter OF public notoriety that the Soutl
has been reduced to the extreme Of phys
ical misery by the oppression and rob
berries OF set OF scoundrels whose fe
lows could only be found in the penitel
tiary, it really makes ones blood NOV
quicker to read a journal that pretend
to be respectable, that is supposed t
advocate the cause of honor, humanit
and justice, whining a wretched apolog
for horde Of maleiactors and begin
that they shall have additional opportu
mites to commit fresh outrages and roll
berries. This is what the Virginia Ell
terprise is attempting to do, an
it is welcome to the filthy tasl
The only assistants it will fin
will be the avowed organs of the Wasl
ington plunderers. If it likes such con
pany we do not know that We have AL
right to complain, but it must NJ
grumble, if persistence in such q cour,
causes the public to believe it is no be
ter than the companions it clings to.

Mr.. Dana, the editor of the New York
Sun, it is said, is likely to be arrested
through the operation of the infamous
Gag Law. The Virginia Enterprise de-
tends the proceedings, and intimates
that it serves Dana right. Leaving, for
the moment, that question, which is no:
the real point, the matter at issue is
whether there shall be an infringement
of the liberty Of the press, violation OF
the rights of the States, and still further,
whether there shall be one law for news
papers and another for the rest of the
community? Before the unrighteous act
of Congress, which was passed at the So
licitation of a parcel of detected and ex-
posed ring thieves and to crafty their
malice-before this vile legislation was
had-the law of libel was amply sufficient
to protect all rights and redress all
wrongs coming within its scope. If a
newspaper published in New York sends
forth to the world libelous statement,
the Courts of that State are open to af.
ford the injured party redress. That is
where the alleged crime is committed,
because that is the place Of publication,
and that is the proper place for the trial
OF the alleged criminal. But that would
not answer the purpose Of these detected
swindlers. The man who has offended
them must be dragged from his home
and from his friends hundreds, perhaps
thousands of miles, and in strange place,
without help, comfort or sympathy, he
is to be tried by tribunals that are merely
the creatures of his prosecutors.
This is matter that not only concerns
Dana, but every citizen who is in favor
Of liberty and free speech. The argu
ments used by the Enterprise are always
to be fonnd in the mouths of tyrants and
despots, who are DESTROYS to crush
the expression Of opinions that are not
favorable to them. As to the question
whether Dana is rightly served or not,
even if he should be arrested and fined,
though we doubt greatly whether the
ring thieves and press gaggers would
to do that But admitting that they can
and do it, we say that Dana has de-
served well of bis country when he ex-
posed and hunted down the corrupt,
swindling Washington ring that even the
present venal Congress and the subservi-
ent Senate did not dare to defend. The
Enterprise says Dana strikes at higher
names. What il he does? Is there any
one official in the United States that is
above criticism and condemnation II he
