WASHINGTON, August 1O.-The Hawaiian

Senate favors it, but q vote could not be
reached without debate, for Which there is

THE VALUE OF INDEPENDENCE AND HONEST
EXPRESSION OF oPISIoN-RETAIL POLITE
CLANS. 49,. ....
correspondence 81 the Richmond Dispatch
LOUISA COUNTY, VA, August !, 1876.
The Springfield Republican, Cincinnati
Comm ercial, New York Sun, and other first
class Journals atone for many errors OF
Judgment and temper by their indepcn-
dence; and surely the press ceases to be the
bulwark of liberty when it is itself cnstaIed,
and voluntarily or otherwise Seruitety de-
votes itself to the service of any man, clique,
faction, or party. It is the political vassal-
age OF the northern press which has per-
mtted the high-handed tyranny OF the Re
publican party. The independent and
honest expression Of opinion by the Dis
patch in regard to men and things, princi-
plies and parties, therefore, should be APP
plaudcd, although its opinions may be
open to objection. 4 mere organ, blindly
partisan, is less free than the Journals OF
Russia, and basely prostitutes the invention
OF Faust to the support OF the very igno-
rance, despotism, bigotry, and intolerance
that have heretofore been chiefly opposed
and overcome by the printing-press. 1t is
Il grievous pity when Il newspaper falls into
the hands OF n "retail politician" OF whom
Benjamin Franklin thus wrote in the good
old days:
:. The retail politicians anxious thought
Deems this side always right and that stark n0uglt
lie fuams with censura-with applause he raves
4 dupe to rumorS, and tool OF knaves;
He'll want no type. his weakness 10 proclaim,
