"ERROR 0EA8E8 TO BE DANGEROUS WHEN REASON 18 LEFT FREE TO COMBAT IT."—Jefferton.

TiiK Value or Latin.—A very good mnm
fbor ol tlie Goneral Assembly of Rhode Island
fonce moved U) translate all tho Latin phrases in
tho statutes so that tho common pcoplo could
understand them. Tho exquisite folly of such
a measure was by no moans obvious to tho
great body of the Assembly. It was quite as
likely to pass ns not. A good solid argument
i against it would probably have carried it
| through. Tito late Mr. Opdiko took the ground
! that it was no advantage to have tho people uu-
| dersland the laws. They were not afraid of
| anything which they understood. It was these
j Latin words that they wero afraid of. “Mr.
Speaker, there was a man in South Kingstown
about twenty years ago, a perfect nuisance, and
i nobody knew how to get rid ot him. One day
he was hoeing corn and he saw tho Sheriff
|coming with a paper, and he asked what it was.
fntr if lie had told him it was & writ what would
! ho huve cared! but ho told him it was a capiat
[ ml tatiefarieiulum, and the man dropped ills hoc
and ran, and lias not been heard of since.”
"The Colossal Lie!”—This is the term
Forney applies to the statement in the Presi-
! dent’s veto message that " tho masses of the
Southern people and those who control public
acts, while they entertain diverse opinions on
questions of Federal policy, are completely uni
ted in the effort to reorganize their society on
the basis oi peace, and to restore their mutual
prosperity as rapidly and completely as their cir-
j cumstances will permit."
Forney says: “ If tills talschood were fact, the
message would bo a great, manly and eouvicting
argument. Being a deliberate lie, the reasons
[ that proceed from it aro simply so many apolo-
I gies and pleas for treason. The lundamcntnl
1 falsehood is so gross that no one but a sympathi
ser with the rebellion would write, and none but
la perfidious betrayer of a generous peoplo
I would endorse it.”
Well, the facts are just precisely us the Presi
dent relates them, and this, no one better knows
than Forney, yet it neither suits his purpose, nor
the party of which he is a representative man,
'to extend to tho President anything but perver-
Bion, misrepresentation and abuse.
A Wonderful Printing Press.—There
| lias just been completed and putinrunningorder
l»t the Government Printing Office, Washington,
lone of the most wondcribl pieces o( mechanism
lin the shape of a printing press that has ever
|bcen exhibited. The press is of the Bullock pa
tent, and, as an exhibition of some of its powers,
ve will mention : The press will print in one
hour 20,000 sheets of 04 pages of document mat
er; while doing this it feeds itself, the paper
being in rolls, wets the paper, cilia the sheets,
bolds them, and by a dial connected to the press
seeps tally of the number of sheets printed.—
[Only two men are required to have entire cou-
|trol of the press, thus doing away with the ne
cessity of persons tn supply it with sheets, (or as
lliey are called,) feeders. The invention is cor-
fuinly a wonderful one, and has been visited since
[Wednesday by a large number of persons, who
:ould not realize the power and utility of tho
hiachiuc.
How they Love Them.—In some sections
Nortli the people are not willing to practice
what they preach. In the South they aro striv
ing to make the freedmau the equal of his former
blaster, and in a political sense his suporior, but
binong themselves he isnotunfrequeutly allowed
[the privilege of working for a living. Wc copy
Ihe following circumstance from the Tribune, of
llic 22U ult.:
Mr. J. Schuberth, a German music seller, rc-
liding at Fall-mount, Westchester county’ hav
ing seen fit to hire a black coachman, was there-
ppon served with this anonymous letter;
"Dear Sir—I take the opportunity of drop
ping you a tew lines to say that there is no nig
gers required in this village.
lid ol
"Being as I am a friend of yours I thought it
best to let you know that there is a report going
bound that if you do not part with the man you
[ntve it will bo the worse ior you.”
We are ashamed to say that the conchman
hvos thereupon sent off, to wander in quest of
fresh employment.
Close up the Ranks.— 1 The Richmond Kx-
tarniner commends the people, in this crisis of
It heir fate, to stand together. It suys: Let there
|be no wrangling, no impugning of motive, no
Iwant of charity, no refusal of justice. If we
Idifler, let us endeavor to persuade—never toridi-
|culo or intimidate; and when action is determined
let that determination be a concession to
levcry honest conviction, or even prejudice, that
lean houorubly and wis ly lie consulted. When,
llinnlly, tlie conclusion is reached, let all sustain
lit, and wc shall survive tho storm ot fanatical
ftyranny which assails us, and preserve enough
i>f freedom on which to build, in tlie new form
|of government that approaches.
Louisiana.—The Houma, (La.) Civic Guard
speaks thus of the ingoing crops; “Our planters
[have had a delightful spell of weather for plant-
ling cane, and, from all we can learn, have been
[improving tho time. All the large plantations
hire being planted in caue. Only the small farms,
[where there aro no sugar houses, will be planted
[in cotton. Wc hope all will plant plenty of corn,
[nice will receive more attention than formerly,
[which, we are pleased to lcflrti, paid well last
[year. Most of the freedmen have contracted for
[the year. In most cases their wages have been
lincreased; tlie average prico paid for men is
|about $15 per month and rations."
Ouh Own Country.— 1 There is nothing sure
ty more groundless than An idea that we can he
[happier in our native country than elsowhere.
|We love the country in which we aro born be-
[causc we receive particular benefits from it, or
Jive have particular obligations to it, which lies
Iwe may have to another country as well as to
Itliat wc are born in. Taour country by election,
|a- well ns our country by birth. In other re-
lipecta, n wise man looks on liimselt as a citi-
[zen of the world, and when you ask him where
[his country lies, points, like Anaxugoras, with
[his linger to tlie hcavfais.
California.—A correspondent writing from
| California to tho Southern Recorder, says: "Just
here, let me Buy to tlie many friends who write
[concerning coming to this country to belter them-
|selves: If you have n borne, and can make a
| living, stay where you are. If you come here to
[buy land, youcnuuol tell whether you have any
[title or not. The best of the farming lands is
[covered with Spanish grants. People here are
[seriously talking of emigrating to the Southern
1 States, and by next spring quite n number will
start.”

[Pl'KCIAT, TO TUB 1NTBI.LIOCNCKR.]
"Paris, Feb. 15,18(17.
THE OPENING OF TIIK FRENCH CHAMBERS.
Tlie Emperor opened the French Chambers
yesterday. The speech, which had been looked
forward to with much eagerness, 1ms turnod out
after all, to bo like all preceding speeches from
tho throne. A groat array of words, which mean
absolutely nothing. Uudor tlie pretense of giving
us extended liberties, the Emperor will continue
to govern pretty much ns before. Tho Empe
ror’s Bpccch may be said to be but the confirma
tion of his letter of the ltltli ultimo.
Many subjects of interest will now be debated
in tho French Chambers; such questions os the
re-organization of the army, the extended liberty
to tlie press, the right of meeting, will bo fully
discussed, and it is hoped that tbc new measure
which does away with tho address will bo the
means of economising much of that time which
was formerly squandered in useless and vain dis
cussions.
NEWS FROM ITALY.
Our principal journals are at a loss to write
about matters concerning France, and are now
directing their attention to tlie afiuirs of Italy.—
Many of these journals comment on the check
given to tlie Italian Cabinet by the lower Cham
ber on the question of public meetings in Ycne-
tia, to discuss tho evils concerning the liberty oi
the Church. Tho Italian Government had in
terdicted such assemblages, and Baron Ricasoli
being interrogated oil tlio subject, assigned ns
a reason for the prohibition that tlie question
presented certain points oi danger ior public or
der, nud that all popular discussion concerning it
had better be avoided. In tact, the government,
rendered anxious by the disturbances which had
taken place at Turin, and by tbc agitation which
was manifested among the working class at Na
ples and Florence, and being desirous, perhaps,
also, not to increase the difficulties which the
Church bill met on its way, had deemed tho mo
ment unsuitable ior public meetings, nud lmd
prevented them taking place. Tlie Chamber,
however, did not accede to that reasoning, but
on a division left tlie ministry, as a telegraphic
dispatch lias announced, in a minority of 32.—
The numbers being 138 to 104. After that deci
sion tlie Cabinet, already shaken by the dis
favor manifested against tlie bill lor settling the
question of cliur.-h property, thought itself called
on to resign. This vote is a matter oi great in
terest at the present moment. It shows how Italy,
still soyoungin the career of liberty, understands
nnd practices (ho right ot meeting, which we
hope will be accorded to ns in France ns a com
pensation for the suppression of tlie address.—
Why should we lie more limited than our
neighbors in Eugland or in Italy. Tlie people
in France have no longer cause to protest against
a class of persons enjoying political privileges.
No one denies tlie sovereignty ot tlie nation, and
tlie assemblies of tlie citizens can have no other
object than to ascertain tlie best use thut can lie
made of their right of suffrage. England does
uot tliiuk of impeding tlie liberty of popular
meetings, even when their object is to lead to a
stale of tilings which will completely transform
tlie English Constitution. Why should France,
whoso population docs not aspire to change the
great principles which prevail in her legislation,
tear to grant to them a similar right?
THE CRETAN QUESTION.
Tlie combined efforts of the Cabinets of Lon
don, Paris, and St. Petersburg have tended to
bring nbout better relations between tlie Porta
and its Christian subjects. Wc bear it is the in
tention to place Crete in a situation analogous to
that oi Servia and Roumunie—that is to say, to
endow it with an autonomy, not excluding the
sovereign rights of the Porte. This solution
would assuredly be preicrablc to tho existing or
der of things, and would have the merit of com
pelling the Porte to put in practice the condi
tions which were imposed upon it in 1830, but
in too mild and vague a way. There is, however,
no doubt that Europe should not stop at such a
semi-solution. The Cretans will not be satisfied,
nor will Greece itself, until the Island shall be
come an integral portion of the Hellenic King
dom. Autonomy would have no other result
than to strengthen the desire and 'prepare tho
explosion of a new insurrection. Tho Cretans,
in tho last forty years, have expressed the desire
to be united to Greece, and there will be no
peace for Europe until this wish is put into exe
cution.
TnE NEW TURKISH QUESTION.
Our correspondent in Pera, writes that the late
political changes in Turkey are of great political
significance ; the new Cabinet may be called a
reform one, as all the men composing it, without
exception, lmve long been tlie warmest advocates
of progress. At present, summoned to the coun
cils of the Sovereign, nnd on tho morrow of
events which have attracted attention to the
situation of tlie East, there is no doubt the new
ministers are determined lo seek the solution oi
the pending question by satisfying the interests of
the different populations subject to Hie Sultan’s
sceptre, without exception of race or religion.
At the head of the Cabinet will, also, lie re
marked tho eminent statesman, who signed,
among others, the treaty of Paris in 1850.
FINE BARGAINS AND THE STOCK EXCHANGE.
A commission lately charged to study the
questions relative to time bargains, met the day
before yesterday, at tho Ministry of France.—
Monsieur Rowland, Senator Governor of tlie
Bank of Frnuce, in tlie chair. It decided to
summon before it several persons of note, who
could give important information on the subject,
nnd amongst them .Monsieur Moreau Syndic, ot
the Agents dcCliange, and Olliers competent to
give good advice on tlie subject.
