When Liberty Was Imperiled.
Daily American

Judge Samuel Blatchford's deatf
gives Mr.. Dana an opportunity
turned, it is almost needless to say,
to excellent account, to recall an in
cident in history whose Importance
has never been as generally appreci
ated as 1t ought to have been, the at
tempt to arrest the editor of the Sur
on the charge of libel, drag him to
Washington TO be tried by a district
court, and thereby subjected to in.
dignity and outrage as warning tc
other journalists to keep silence re-
specting fraud at the national CAPT
tai.
The attempt failed. but it failed
only because the application for 3
warrant for Mr.. Dana's arrest. based
upon mere Information in a DistIi I
of Columbia police court, was made
before fearless and learned federal
Judge, who declined, even at the risk
of offending the powerful coterie OF
scoundrels who were enmeshed in
the Credit Mobilier and kindred
scandals, and refused to override the
constitution.
Had Judge Blatchford been as
plant and inconsiderate of his off
cial oath as 3 supreme court Judge of
this state proved himself to be in a
similar case, it is almost certain that
the liberty o the press would have
needed to be re-established at perhaps
incalculable cost.
Judge Blatchford laid down the
principle that libel is one of the
crimes which, under the constitu-
ton, must be tried by a jury, and
that the accused is entitled not to be
first convicted by court and then tC
be acquitted by jury, but to be con.
victed or acquitted in the first in.
stance by jury.
The person to whom these word
were mainly addressed in 1872 was
John |. Davenport, who was engaged
by the Washington ring to silence
newspaper comment in New York.
Yet eight years later this same
man, John l. Davenport, obtained
the cooperation of supreme court
Judge of this state, who descended
from his great and honorable emf
hence to try, under the tenuous dis
guise Of a magisterial examination.
and convict-so far as the form OF
law would let him-a prisoner charg

Antiquity of Eel Founding.

The art of bel founding is undoubted-
ly of great antiquity. The Saxons are
known to have 1sed bells in their
churches, although probably but small
ones, for the Venerable Bede, writing at
the end of the seventh century, alludes
to them in terms which seem to show
tina. SEey Were not unfamiliar things.
The towers of the Saxon period have
belfrles of considerable dimensions in
most cases, and at Crowland abbey, in
South Lincolnshire, there was a famous
peal of seven bells many years before
the Norman conquest.
The monks at that time and for long
after were the chief practitioners of the
art of bell founding-which indeed is one
of the many things those well abused
men have handed down to US. Their bells
were rarely without inscriptions, often
in very bad Lltin, containing perhaps
some obscure joke, the point of which is
quite lost. More often they were of a re-
hgiOus nature, sometimes, we fear, not
unmi1ed with q dash of superstition, as
when the bell declares that its sound
drives away the demons OF the air who
caused pestilence and famine, lightning
and thunder5tOTIns.
as rule, unfortunately they put nc
dates on their bells, defect which has
been in some measure overcome by tht

We Go Back ON Ourselves.

It's a funny characteristic of hue
man nature that We will tear u
hair, split our shirts, spend our
money, work on the doubtful, sit
up at night devising ways aud
means, fall out with our neighbors
and do everything elee to carry an
election, get drunk in our joy after
the victory has been won, and then
turn right around and talk SO
about the people we have helped
to elect as to give a stranger the
idea that we had helped to bring a
calamity upon the country. Here
in North Carolina we preach and
honestly feel that it would be a
crowning misfortune Tor the Demo-
Gratis to lose a Legislature, yet who
is it that doesn't fall to abusing
every Legislature even before it
adionrns? It's the same way about
a Congress, after we have carried
it, and now we are hearing all sorts
of critisms of the President, whose
defeat last fall would have broken
half our hearts. The most of the
criticism arises from the ruling Of
tue Postmaster General, endorsed
by the President, that postmasters
are not to be disturbed until the
terms named in their commissions
expire, except for cause, and that
active participation in politics
unless the machinery OF the office
was invoked in this behalf, doe
not necessarily constitute cause.
We needn't say that this sort Of
business doesn't suit us, but The
people who voted for Mr.. Cleveland
not only knew that he would, i
elected, rightly inforce the civil
service laws, but they knew tina
he was thoroughly imbued will
their spirit and would carry &
large measure of this spirit, as h.
had done in his former term, int
his dealings with officers of th'
government outside the classified
service. Those who did not know
this should have informed them
selves upon the suDJcct. 1iioe
who did know it have no right t
kick when they get what the.
voted for.

President Cleveland has issued a
formal announcement to the effect
that he will hereafter receive no
office-seekers at the White House.
The notice is in the following
words:
EXECUTIVE MANSION, May s.
1t has become apparent, after two
months experience, that the rules
heretofore promulgated regulating
interviews with the President have
wholly failed in their operation.
The time which under those rules
was set apart COR the reception Of
Senators and Representatives, has
been almost entirely spent in listen
ing to applications for office, which
have been bewildering in volume,
p~erplexing and exhausting in their
iteration, and impossible of remem-
b1ance,
A due regard for public Guty,
which must be neglected if the
present conditions continue, and an
observance of the limitations placed
upon human endurance, oblige me
to decline from and after this date
ali personal interviews with those
seeking appointment to office, ex-
cept as I, on my own motion, may
especially invite them. The same
considerations make it impossible
for me to receive those who merely
desire to pay their respects except
on the days and during the hours
especially designated for that pur'
pose.
earnestly request Senators ano
Representatives to aid me in secur.
ing for them uninterrupted inter.
views by declining to introdrct
their constituents and friends whe;

reception. Applicants for office viii
