From the hH0kcd.
There has been published in the Doiiy .ldrertser
translation of an article that appeared in Cali
fornia paper, concerning our Government and our
King, which il ascribed to W. N. Armstrong. But
in the Ga-ette of Wednesday, appears communi-
cation from w. n. Armstrong, denying that he was
the author of the aforementioned abusive article
which he had read III California.
Newspapers have AN undoubtcd right 10 publish
and comment on subjects that are discussed among
different nationalties. Thus, the events and acts
that have occurred, or have been performed and
also that now transporting, IN Turkey, Egypt,
England, America, and III other governments, arc
being everywhere freely commented. II any gov
ernment acts fooshly, there II no lack of criticism
in the newspapers and sInong the assemblies of
men. This is an age of discussion the world over
There is not ruler in all the governments OF
Europe whose duings are not closely pried into by
the newspapers; and all the public and political
actions ob king aud conuoner are openly discussed
in their bearings ON the welfare of the nations OF
the earth.
But spite of this, il is very wrong 10 publish

part of the writings IN the paper above alluded to,
and such as are broadcast in own midst by the

That ID quite true when Is nov beiug blndie'
