T hey npiranl to tlra common sen*e and to lira passions, if von will, hut seldom, if ever, do tlray seek to mis lead the judgment by captivuting tlra fancy. Wo do not recollect having ever witnessed Ili an •Eng lish paper, any article resembling some of tlraso wordy uud windy lucubrations, of which tho staple material is runt, that nre so fmi|ucntly to bo met with in A'neriruti journals. The English press is rcmaikahle for tho simplicity of its style—even ex pression* tlw most hackneyed, absolute vulgarisms ure omployml by them; every grace of writing strains sacrificed to absolute jranpicuity; their Inn. eungo. while nervous nnd forcible, is divested uf even the slightest exuberance tliut is nut indispen- hie fur the preservation of the sense. Tho Anrartcuu press ha* been cunsidored partic ularly nlmsive. Tho foe* to popular governments and repiihlicnn Institutions, hn ve iiistanecd thu vi tuperative character iff our political journals us evi dence of tho unbridled license into whii li liberty has degenerated. There is no doubt that Mir press is altogether too personal; too much dispos- d to unconditional invective; too indiscriminate iii its attacks mi individuals Hence its usefulness ns n means of li'ilding up the guilty, to censure and op probrium, Ims been materially abridged. When praise and blame become i qunlly iavisli nnd incon siderate, distrust is the speedy and nntuml consi- queuce. The unra.trictcd liirarty of the press in this country Inn in this manner proved a correctvo ofitsuf; for its freedom from eoitsorship, while it giv. s it alnT'Tgt entire unanimity iu its a.imilts upon tho character uud principles of individ'inls, neutralizes its malign iiiilu-nco, by disseminating a general want of confidence in its loose and reckless assertion*. Theso observations are, ofcouise, trat without exceptions; hut as n genurul ruie, we me persuuded this will bo found just. But liuwevor few and fooblo thu restraints upon tlra press in America, nud however bold nnd indis criminate may Ira its nttneks upon persons, we aro fully of opini -n that -the journals of England are far beyond us in the art of vituperation. The minis terial nnd opposition papers in London might well instruct us in it point itt which they nre far more perfect timn ourselves. Tlra variety of ubusive terms which tlray hurl nut only at each other, hut at tlra loading politicians in th- kingdom is incon ceivable: "scoundrels," "liars,” clients," “knaves," " perjured villinns," and tho like, aro fair snmples of tlw luxuriance of imective in which they indulge. The |raor* and potentates of Great Britain ore the pritie pal objects of attack undr oynlty itself esenpes not unscathed. The simplicity of style which marks their compositions gives them opportunities of indulging in tho coarsest personalities. No courtly trope ur delicate allegory half conceals while it discloses the keen sarcasm and bitina retort. In linked virulence uflitugunge do they fearlessly scut- tor the filthy garbage of tlrair t nncor. Reprehensi ble as is tlra tone of the American press, ii is more seemly nnd dignified tliuu thu: of otir.trattsuilnnlic iiuigldmis. With all tlra tnct nnd iutellectnnl resources dis play d by tlra English press, tli-rc is of less mci- ness, freshness and originality than are commonly encountered iu this country.
