he had circulated any such reports,
whereupon Van Wert's lawyer called the
Fulton granger q liar and wanted to
know II the letter which he produced

James n. Brown, of Toledo, in the
course OF his argument in suit for libel
bro ught against Toledo paper claimed
tina the freedom of the press was no
grester than, the freedom Of the individu-
al, and gave the following just tribute to-
the press when property conducted, and
deserved denunciation of those who use
it for improper purpose:
The influence of the press, when COM
Quoted by men who seek to honor their
profession, who make truth the basis OF
their work and who have regard for the
interests OF society ARE as pure and health
full and invigorating as the rays Of the
the morning sun. The effusions Of such
q press are welcome messengers to our
homes, on whose unfolding wings are
flashes Of truth and light that enlighen
all who behold them. u
The influences Of the press. when con-
duct by men who seek to dishonor their
profession, who make deception, licenti-
BUSINESS and falsehood the foundation of
their work, who prey upon society as the
beast preys upon Its victim and the vul-
ture upon the carcass, are as baneful and
disastrous in their effects as the pestilence
that, stealing forth at midnight it en-
ters the lattice of our windows aud scat
ters the seeds of death over those we
love.
All honor to that noble army of men
and women who to-day are engaged in
conducting the press in the interests of
society; the world is benefited by their
labors, and by them the prophecy is be-
ing fulfilled that knowledge shall run to
and fro through the earth.
But let the anathemas Of mankind be
upon that class of beings who governed
BY low. sordid and mercenary motives,
use the power of the press to break down
private character, to invade our homes
and SOW the seeds of moral death
throughout the land.

BRIGHAM AS 4 REFoRMER.

Brigham is not only radical Re-
publican and a teacher Of communistic
doctrine, but goes further and attempts
to be .all things unto all men. !"
Among the ab.hoys'' at Columbus, and
elsewhere, he is'la "hale fellow we'll

Now, what is specific taxation2 II
is not such q tax as is contemplated
BY the constitution under which al
property in the State-excepting gov

according to its true value in money,
but'it ia tax levied upon certain
articles Of property by which house

amount per pound that the Eve cent

THE BIGGEST YET.
Il. II. Lee, Tom. Shaw, and Major Col.
lins's Bear Hunt.

r. II. Lee, the surveyor, Tom.
Shaw, and Major Collins, while at
Sawtooth last week, heard that good
sport could be had at the slaughter
pen, any night, in killing bear. They
therefore provided themselves with
Winchester rifles and struck out, one
evening, and were smoking cigars and
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of climb
ing upon the scaffolding, when a
cracking of underbrush startled them
They got ready to fire all together at
the word ''three." A bear approached.
and when few yards off all fired at
once and the bear, rising upon its
hind legs, fell over and rolled into the
creek. The bold huntsmen approached
and poured second volley into Mr..
Bear, when they saw it was surely
dead. An examination proved that
the first volley had been fatal, as two
bullets struck upon its forehead and
the other entered one of its eyes.
Fifteen men with sled took the bear
to town, where it was weighed, and it
tipped the beam at 1,40O pounds. 1t
was Of the bald-faced species, and one
of the largest yet killed. It's paws
were Is inches long, and its jaws rel
sembled Blake ore-crusher's. This
is the largest bear killed this season.
