CANTON's gle ,test want is an ed
ucated editor. The power of the
press.
The sphere of tho press, as an ed
ucator, is almost illimitable, and its
power for good incalculable. AS
he right arm of popular education,
it is every where a necessity. 1t is
charged with high and important
mission, not only as a medium of
information, but AS the guardian of
the morals of the community. As
All educator, it should combine the
character of both Instructor and
moralist. To educate, implies
something more than to impart
popular information, something
more than to teach the arts and
sciences, the various branches OF
literature; it includes. also, the incul.,
cation of sound, and good priL-
ciples, enlightened, nora! aud reii
giou5 sentiment. If, as has been
truly said, otis education that
forms the common mind" how I'M
speakably important it is, that ster-
ling principles should be illustrated
and enforced by those whose calling
it is to educate. Under The weighty
sanctions imposed 10y the high posi-
ton they occupy, their calling be-
comes one OF great responsibility.
Purity of sentiment. is of more inn
pOrtance than refined and elegant
language. Language may fis
cinate the mind and please the in :
agnation, but sentiment sinks
down deep into the soul, and con
tributes largely to the formation of
character. The educator is plant
ing germs whose fruit il for eternity
The sphere of the press, as an
educator, is larger than that of any
other instrumental!ty devoted to
such service, and more potent in its
influence. 1t reaches farther than
the puIpit,it goes into every family,
to every individual. 1t is more
universal than any other agency OF
instruction. 1t Is almost ubiquitous.
Its scope and end, compasses the
civilized world. If not in the tech
meal, yet i'll true and practical
sense OF the phrase, II liberal cf!uca-
ton may be obtained fl ON h. press.
and the graduate at this, the best OF
all our literary institutions, alwa!, s
carries his diploma with him, in tao
general information he possesses on
the multiform topics of the age, on
the arts and sciences, history, geo
graphy, mechanism, metallurgy.
finance, physic, language, geology,
discoveries, government, law, and
all that constitutes general knowl-
edge.
The press is an engine of snrpass-
ing influence and power, and no enc
is fit to manage it. but hr who is
willing to concede to Others the.
priv leges he claims for himself.
In no other hands is there positive
safety and reliable security. Con
trOlIed by a selfish or preju'iiccd
mind, its wisdom drgrn:.Iat
into Graf; and its power into tyr
amy.

1865, that United States Marshals,
upon their own discretion merely,
and on their own judgment upon
what the circular calls NOTORIOUS
events" and on their apprehension
of a violation of the peace of the
United States" could place armed
men at the voting places. The pre-
tension is too INDUSTRIOUS to be en-
dured. If this circular correctly
states the law, then it is in the
power of an INSCRIPTIONS President,
without the action of any State
authority, to authorize any United
States Marshal anywhere, on any
pl etext of necessity, to place ut the
polls the very description of force
whose bare presence would drive
away in disgust and Indignation
the voters whom that Marshal, the
tool of That President. would wish
to repel.
But why should we reason or
argue or criticise, when we have to
deal with an Administration that
can issue such a circular as this,
without one word of reference to
law, the existence of which it ig-
nores, which it was bound to have
noticed, and which it should at least
have tried to explain into some Con
sistency with the in sidiOuS purposes
If n scheme more dangerous to the
oub;ic liberties than any that even
.Iysntism has before cOncocted! /
