NATIONAL PRESS ASSOCIATION
On our first page will bo found an
article upon this subject,* by authority
Georgia Press Association.
In the early days of the Press it was
only employed as a means of advertis
ing ahd as'a record, or journal, of cur
rent events, for the information of the
people. In the course of time, how
ever, a$ its usefulness and power were
developed, it was applied to tlie discus
sion and advancement of science, lite
rature, and the arts, and to all the in
dustrial pursuits of men; and lastly,
and chiefly, to civil and political affairs
of government—yet in no part of the
ffOrld to the same extent, and with the
Same influence, as in our own country.
As its influence became still further
known, and its power felt, it continu
ously assumed a nn>rc authoritative tone,
grasping still a wider field of action,
until, at the present time, it not only
molds but dictates public opinion ; and
in the halls of legislation contests, with
imperious sway, the law making power.
In view of the mighty influence thus
exercised,it becomes the high and sacred
duty of every people and connnuuity,
and of the Prose itself, to uphold its
character and defend its progressive
zeal. The cause of education has ever
been earnestly advocated by this grand
medium of intelligence--and futile have
ever been the*attempts at associating
ignorance and vice with learning and
virtue. The former are dispelled by
the infiuence of the Press as mists before
the rising sun. And where tfSce and
intelligence exist together, demagogism
and selfishness are the basis, and the
Press lias been bought to either be silent
or defend them.
The “Freedom of the Press”—the
watchword of liberty—was once guarded
very jealously by the government under
which we live. Put now, .when “The
wicked walk on every side, and the
vilest men are exalted,” “Judgment is
turped, away backward, and justice
standeth afar off, for truth is fallen in
the street, and equity cun not enter.”—
And the abuse of the Press has been and
is productive of very great evils. That
. its restriction within wholesome limits
should be enforced, not by a code to
that eud, but by “a law unto itself”
(ipcial,. if you please,) in the pleutitudc
of its power and wisdom, wo believe to
be essential to the advancement of
morality, sociability, brotherly love, and
all the inestimable good qualities that
mold men for positions, not positions for
men —which may be easily accomplished
by the united efforts of well-ordered and
wcll-eonduoted “venders of mingled in
telligence aud truth” for the public
good. Alas! that so great a number
of the “lights of our country” should
have fallen to the miserable depth of
hypocrisy at which wo now behold them;
their former glory bedimmed by the
mists of olind passion and sordid im
pulses. Such is really the character
of many journals throughout our laud
with a price.
While we earnestly urge upon the
people the obedience of laws, we can
not lose sight of the fact that the writ
ten constitution of the United States,
the foundation of our government and
embodiment of the fundamental prin
ciples of all our laws, is a mere by-word
and a reproach; and that the will of
the people, through their representa
tives, guided and restrained by the
principles of the constitution, no longer
govern the land, but the reckless will
of a heedless, heartless,'selfish, and cor
rupt Congress, regardless alike of all
right, justice, hurnajity, and law, is
now the governing power. It should,
therefore, be the aim, the high ambi
tion of the Press to aid with all its
might in bringing the government back
to the old land-marks of the constitu
tion of our fathers. “In the multitude
of counsellors there is safety,” and “in
union there is strength.” Our voice,
then, is for a National Union —for in
that we shall have national strength.
The Rev. I)War Talmadge says : j
“I now declare that 1 consider the news* 1
papers to be the grand agency by which |
the Gospel is preached, iguoruncc is cast'
out. oppression dethroned, crime extir
psted. the world raised, heaven rejoiced,
and God glorified. In the clanking of
the printing press, ns the she 'ts fly out,
I hear the voice of the Loud Ai.miuiity
proclaiming to the nnMons of the earth,
‘Lazarus, come forth!’ and to the retir
ing surges of darkness, ‘Let there bo
light!”’
Let light—the softening light of in
telligence, truth, justice—glorious light
—by the combined effort and influence
of the Press of tho Union, pervade the
dark riocsses of our country, and be
enthroned where vice in regal robes has
usurped so long. j. E. F.
How the New York Cotton Market is
Controlled.
It seems that members of tho New
York Cotton Exchange who may be in
terested in changing the market prices
are habit of combining to make
lieticious sales of cotton for that pur
pose. The manner and effect of those
fraudulent operations by which the cot
ton market of the entire country is af
fected, is thus stated by the Journal of
Commerce:
‘ Dealers in the combination agree
with each other, soli and buy a certain
number of bales at a certain figure
above or below the market price, ac
cording as they intend to bull or bear
the market. The contracts are then
handed to the superintendent of the
Exchange to be stamped and reported
on the sales bulletin. The superin
tendent has no means of learning wheth
er the sales so reported arc true or fic
titious. And the reports of these ficti
tious sales do influence the market for
or against actual buyers and sellers.”
Whcu the Cotton Exchange was form
ed its liability to this sort of imposition
was foreseen and in order to prevent
such frauds a clause was inserted in
the by-laws declaring that “any mem
ber who shall be convicted of reporting
false sales shall be expelled.” Notwith
standing this by-law, it seems that false
sales have been reported, but no con
viction in any instance has followed,
for the reason that the parties to such
sales Would not divulge the fraudulent
character of the transaction. With a
view to meet these cases and protect
honest dealers, a meeting of the Cotton
Exchange was convened on Monday
last to consider an amendment to the
by-laws, declaring that a reward of
$250 shall be paid to any member who
shall give such information of’a ficti
tious transaction ns should lead to a
conviction under the by laws.
A spirited discus-ion arose between
the friends and opponents of the meas
ure, the latter maintaining that the
amendment was objectionable on the
ground that “it would tend to show a
want of confidence among the members,
and to discredit the integrity of the
Exchange.” After a protracted de
bate which showed that the majority of
the members were opposed to the re
ward system, the whole subject was re
turned to the board of managers for re
vision.
This fraudulent practice of making
fictitious sales of cotton which are quot
ed by the Exchange, mid disseminated
over the country by telegraph, as rul
ing prices in New York, will cxplaiu
tho otherwise unaccountable fluctua
tions in that market, so damaging to
the interests of Sew thorn buyers and
producers.

(VESAHIriM.
THE SHADOW Of AMERICAN IM
PERIALISM.
The nations of the world are so closely
bound together, that, what nffeots one
will in many ways affect another. It is
impossible to have social and commer
cial relations with countries like France
and Germany and Spain and not in
some way be controlled by the political
emotions and agitations which sweep
over them. Tho wa r ngainst Church
influence ir. Germany is a problem that
had not been without a parallel in our
own local history, and many gloomy*
minded prophets still think that there
will be even graver religious complica
tions in the future. Spain is wrestling
with that same spirit of slavery and
slave-holding arrogance which compelled
us to sacrifice so much blood and treas
ure in its overthrow, while there are
problems in Franco now in process of
solution which may well demand bur
gravest attention, and from which we
may learn lessous of wisdom.
Although wo know so much more of
all that is needful iu politics and natural
economy than any other people, there is
much to be learned from those warm,
subtle countries of the South. In the
North wo see the lusty, vigorous and
valiant Russian and German aud Saxon.
History shows what they have done iu
war and conquest. -We do not venture
to think what is still possible to them
after Sadowa aud Sedan. Dut in the
fiucr elemcuts of character—the subtle
qualities of statesmanship and progress
the world has learned nothing since
the time of Machiavelli. In literature,
art,politieal economy, the laws of finance
and trade, architecture, music,what, have
we learned in the North ? What have
we that has not come from the South?
Two mighty names, the shadow of whose
genius rests upon the world like an au
rora—Shakespeare and Goethe—come
from the North ; but. it is the North as
moulded and tinted by centuries of
Southern taste and light. When we
see what we sec in Spain and Frauee
and Italy, it is well to pause and apply
to our own conditions of national life
the problems there seeking solution.—
We may in the future have to undergo
even more exhausting struggles unless
we build wisely now. It is so much
easier to build than to rebuild. The
Spaniards aud Frenchmen of to day are
in the throes of social and political
agony to undo what was vainly done by
their fathers. No similar problems op
press u, for with us every problem is
solved by the prodigious wealth and
richness of our soil—the vast sections
of unimproved land awaiting the ©mi
grant,, the readiness with which wealth
is gained. Rut there was a time when
land was free to the people of the Med
iterranean, when money was earned
easily, when society had no vexing,
heartrending problems; and so far as
richness of soil is concerned, we have
ucver surpassed France in our harvests,
nor Spain in the variety of our mineral
wealth. And what these Mediterra
nean countries see may in time come
home to us.
What is tin; question in Spain and
Franoe ? As we understand it, simply
this: How best can Spaniards and
Frenchmen rule their native l .nds,
curing to all life, liberty and the pur
suit of happiness? How best can there
be a genuine republican form of govern
ment? What is the question iu the i
United States ? No more nor less than
this : Shall we have a republican form
of government ? We dismiss from con
sideration all sentimental and fantastic
questions of politics. It is not whether
we shall have protection or free trade,
suffrage to one class or another, central
ization or State rights. These ques
tions will determine themselves. But
shall we have a republican form of gov
ernment? The thought in the minds
of our politicians is: Shall we nominate
General Grant for a third time ? It is
true the thought has not found general
expression. It is spoken, if at all, with*
bated breath and whispering humble
ness. An occasional worshipper of
power announces in a truculent manner
that wo have found anew Washington
and we must keep him. Some of the
enemies of General Grant insist in a
mocking way that he shall be at once
nominated. But there is no general
expression on the subject. The want
of this expression is a grave indication.
Suppose Mr. Johnson, or Gen. Pierce,
or Mr. Buchannan had either of them
been mentioned as a candidate for three
terms, how promptly we should have
been told the liberties of the country
were iu danger! Now wo hear no sound.
Nothing is clearer than that the hench
men of General Grant, the men who i
have gained honor and wealth out of|
his administration, and who see in his
renomination and re-election their own
; continuance in power, mean to insist '
j upon his renomination. The arguments j
! are all at hand : we are doing so well,:
j the business of the country needs so j
i much tranquility, the South is so rest- !
less in the absence of a firm hand, Gen- j
eral Grant has been so admirable, and
60 on, that we can not run the risk of
j new experiments.
This is so much more probable be
cause. as we have shown before, the
political situation if. iu the bands of
General Grant. IJo is as completely
njaster as was ever, Jefferson, Jacloson. i
or Lincoln. Never was a President so J
,1-ttbmissivcly obeyed.* Nfvrr wf'.f{Huffy
ko dominant. Every department of the
government, nearly every large State,
the army, tho navy, the bench—even
this great State, and still greater me
tropolis, which stood all the assaults of
Lincoln when in the fulness and glory
of 'triumphant war—all, all are in the
hands of his followers. And not ono of
those men has ventured to speak what
l.c would have spoken a few years
ago about tho question of a third term.
We are told it is not a living question,
that tho time for its discussion has not
come, that it would be a rejection upon
General Grant to suppose him iu any
way ambitious of a renominution. But
to say this is not u living issue is to say
what is not true. Home had no more
living issue than when, on the Lupcrcal,
Mark Antony offered the kingly crown
to Julius Caesar. And the men who
in authority under General Grant
are many of them as eager to do him
honor as wore the shouting Romans
who surrounded Cicsar in his triumphs.
And as we believe that great events
are not the works of mere men, but of
social and political conditions which
daring uien ofttimes seize, so do wc sec
u r ound us many of the elements favor
able to Cmsnristn. Luxury, sudden
wealth, the spirit of speculation, the
loose moral tone which superinduced
Tammany Hall. Credit Mebilier, reve
nue frauds and the extraordinary legis
lation in the last Congress; tho rending
asunder by the civil war of old conser
vative ties, the military spirit, the cra
ving for show and noise—all these signs,
apparent everywhere, aro precisely what
was seen in Rome when Augustus Cae
sar, under the deceptive name of Impel’-
ator, overthrew the Republic,
This question, what we may call Cre
sarism, that threatens to come to us in
America, is uow being rcttlcd in France
and Spain—sadly, we fear, and with
disaster and deep wounding of tho ra
tional pride. We have seen what France
has done—how eke swung from the
sway of Thiers to Ma-Mahon—aud
scarcely a ripple on the political surface.
Could we have done as much ? Could
our form of Government have made as
sudden a change without wrentebing the
whole system, and, perhaps giving it a
fatal wound? Supposo Mr. Johnson
had been as popular a man a3 Mr.
Thiers, with all the powers of the gov
ernment at his command, could we have
avoided any fate he chose for us ? Mr.
Johuson was our most unpopular Presi
dent. He vetoed more acts of Congress
than the other Presidents all combined.
He was opposed by both bouses of Con
gress, and had no following in either
party. And yet his impeachment was
impossible. Suppose Mr. Johnson to
have been as strong as Mr. Thiers in
France, or President Grant now, he
could, we fear, have dealt our Republic
as severe a blow as the Caesars dealt
the Republic of Rome. The evil lies
in our Constitution. Perfect as we re
! gnrd that instrument, we cannot do
| what Spain has done—what France is
i doing. Spain dismisses her King France
! her President, and the forms of the
I constitution were unimpaired. To dis
-1 miss our President would be a revolu
i tion. Aiid while no one cares to dis
| miss him, we see ourselves drifting upon
, the rock of Csesaristn—smoifchly, pleas
| antly, silently, swiftly drifting upon a
I danger even greater than what menaced
'Spain or Fiance. We mean tire third
j term idea, * which to our mind affects
| our Republic as gravely as the Repub
j lie of Rome was affected when Julius
I Ctesar was offered the crown by subser
vient Senators.
Nor will the question be solved by
any action of Gen. Grant. We neither
speak for the President nor criticise
him. Personally be docs not enter into
this discussion. lie might say to-mor
row that lie would, under no circumstan
ces, accept a nomination, just as he once
! said bo did not believe in second terms.
That would postpone, not eradicate the
danger. No system is sound, nor are
people really free, who depend upon
the patriotism of one man for freedom.
We remember that the crown was thrice
offered on Lupereal, and that, although
thrice refused, each time it was with
I less and less reluctaucc. And we can
name twenty Mark Autonys in our city
who would carry the crowu of a third
nomination to Gen. Grant with pride
and swiftness. We must meet Cre s a-
aism now, not by postponing this ques
tion, out of deference to the feelings of
General Grant, but by meeting it, dis
cussing it and searching public opinion.
If our public men have no views on the
subject, or are silent and non-commit
tal, we must educate them also. Hav
ing done this, we come to the next step
—tiie prom-ulgatiou of ari amendment
| to the Constitution making the Presi
dent’s office more amenable to the pop
ular will. What the exact terms of
such amendment should be must be
considered gravely. As for General
Grant, as we have before remarked, he
has a perilous stake. If lie should be
renominated, and win, bo will bo re
membered .with those daring, ambitious
men, like Caesar and Napoleon, who
preferred their own gain to t,ho national
liberties. If lie should be renominated,
and lose, he will be remembered in our
history with Arnold and Burr, as men
who permitted ambition to woo them
to dishonor and shame. Beyond this,
the people must gravely consider whe
ther they arc really free when contin
geupies like this can be seriously dis
cussed—whether, with all our wealth
and power, wc are as free as France and
Spain. m i

The State of Louisiana, at the end

contingent debt, which the State will
probably have to pay, $5,483,602. The
