INDEPENDENT JOURNALISM" -
With the opening of the canvass we
hear the cicada cry of the "Indepen-
dent Journals"-those of the heroic
school--who inveigh against parties,
and who do not intend that the par
ty lash shall intimidate them. We
believe that one of the first duties of
newspaper is to devote itself TO
the political education of the peo-
pie. In order to do this, those who
control it should endeavor to ascer-
tain what party comes the nearest
to their ideas of what is true and
right, and TO identify the paper with
it. When the party nominates un-
fit men for Office, or when it is about
to commit any wrong, such paper
inside of the party organization is
powerful for good. There it can
freely assert its independence by
taking an active part in the direction
of the party movements, and in
moulding the party sentiment.
But how is it with the so-called
Independent? and who is he?-
Has he any higher mission than to
endeavor to elevate and improve
the political condition of the people
among whom he lives? Is the re-
failing of scandals and sensations a
better or nobler work than that of
the man who accepts the tenets of a
great party, and tries to teach them
to others? AS rule the "Indepen-
dent Journalist" has collar about
his neck, and instead of following q
party, he is the follower of some in
dividual. Too often the "Indepen-
dent" assumes his role, because he
cannot in any other way compete
with a more successful rival. Such
men perch upon the roadside, while
party numbering millions of men
defile past them intent upon some
great purpose, and while they are
boasting of their independence,
they are looked upon as political
vagabonds, who are waiting to be
bought up by the first bidder. Sit
ting in their little dens, called by
sufTerance "sanctums," from which
they proclaim to the country round
about that they will take wood,
dried-apples, turnips, pumpkins,
sweet potatoes, rags or soft soap,
Cor subscription, they also take
infinite delight in telling how indie
pendent they are. Independent of
whom and of what? AS a matter
of course VIC have nothing to say
against any newspaper man who is
compelled to resort to the applian-
ces named to get his paper into the
hands of the people. We admire
his pluck, and can fully sympathise
with all his hardships, but when he
throws down the last instalment of
rags, to snatch up his pen and hurl
defiance at the imaginary tyrants
who are flourishing the party whip
over his devoted head, he becomes
very ridiculous creature. We are
troubled with large crop of these
turnip-eating, rag-grabbing indie
pendents this Spring, and we hope |
they may all : be bought up as |
soon as possible. AS has been well |
said by st. Louis contemporary !

The Massachusetts newspapers of
the Radical persuasion have had their
attention attracted to the process
of Capitalization now going on at
Washington. Rip Van Wrinkle did
not awaken from more profound
slumber than that in which they have
INDUCED for years. Louisiana was to
them a foreign country, and her peo-
pie strangers, so long as General
Grant and The Government smiled
upon Massachusetts. But now the
question is asked, eff it is possible
to impose upon the people of Louis
lana by military force a Governor not
of their choice, why not IN MaSsachu-
sets" Yes! why not, you selfish
and unsymphathizing knayes? And
why did you not think Of this before?
So long as Louisiana was cropping
in the glooms and horrors of recon
struction, it was all well enough, but
when Massachusetts, is threatened
with the displeasure of the Govern
ment there is wailing in her coasts.
Butler was n fit man to bully New
Orleans women and hang brave men
who would not fall down and wor-
ship the American flag, but when he
even asks to name collector for the
port of Boston howl of anguish is
raised that echoes round the world.

a lost heir, he steps boldly to the
front as Roger Tichbone, and here
the curtain rises upon the play. The
hopeful and infatuated Lady Itch
bone, mother OF the lost Roger, ad-
opted the theory that her son had
escaped sLipsreck AMI rs the wish
is father to the thought, she accepts
every proof Of identity and explains
whatever is strange and inconsistent,
by the eccentricitics, low habits and
associations of her son, a wanderer
among the scum Of humanity that
swarms in the Australian colony.
With such an advantage the bold
imposter seven years ago landed in
England, secured an interview with
the hopeful mother, obtained from
her every letter, Journal, token and
item of information connected with
the family, which she could give HIM,
and with the support of those from
whom he had borrowed money, Oh the
strength Of his claim, and with the
credulity of half an empire to back
him, he went into the Courts of Eng
land seeking the restoration of his
title and estate as the lawful heir.
Aftera protractcd hearing i'll the civil
courts he retired a baffled plaintiff.
Hewas afterwards arrested and indicted
for perjury in matters connected with
his suit, the indictment containing
two counts witt more than thirty dis
tinct charges Of perjury. The trial
recently took place before Lord Chief
iuctice Cockburn, and after a hearing
of 1873 days, the jury returned a verdict
of guilty, whereupon the prisoner
was sentenced to II years of penal
seryitude. The charge of the Chief
Justice to the Jury consumed Is days,
and with the conviction of Arthur
Orion as a periured felou, ends the
T1euDone case, the most rUrrIurhHbfU
ever tried in an English court.
