The uewspaper potter, years ago, was
sailed our “ third estate.” Never has that
power been below the ratio of talent or mor
al character that in our time have been trib
utary to the press. It has been always dis-
proportioned to tho just claims to talent or
morality that the editorial corps could with
any decency assume. But, now it has come
to pass, that the insolence and egotism of a
large portion of men who control papers of
extensive circulation is unbearable to the
last degree. If the natural tendency of the
tremendeous power of the press is towards
abuse and despotism, and public opinion,
which it docs so much to create, cannot
react upon it in turn, then we have no long

a dangerous and a despicable master. We ! P 0 ^'

Tue Agcressive Power of Russia.—One
of the most striking debates that attended
the late ministerial crisis in England, (says
the Charleston Mercury,) was a statement,
made by Mr. II. Drummond to the following
effect. Soon after the peace of 1815, the
British Government commissioned the Duke
of Wellington, to draw up a statement upon
the military power of Russia—its powe .f
aggression and defence. The report v as
made and put away where the clerks who
govern England generally, store the labors
of the men who ought to govern it—in an
official pigeon hole. Many years after,

was revived, and it was found that the Gov

next Sunday evening, it will have passed
through seven vertical sections of fourteen
