The pa- tself bas been long looked upon as a very of ' old fashioned curiosity, and its editor respected 8 pleasant specimen of bygone times. Neither the journal nor the man bore any other | relation to the present age than that of a pen- sioner who had known and talked face to face with our grandfathers; and on this ground alone Congress has admitted, year after year, into the estimates of public expenditure, an item for their support, in the shape of a sop of the pub- lic printing. The writers who are making such un ado about his career comprebead the age in which they live aod the events which are passing around them as little ae did the subject of their culogiums. Ouring the latter period of the lifetime of the National Intelligencer a complete revojetion has been effected in. the American press, which has al- its impression upon journalism in Europe. The represcatatives of that revolution are the inde- pendent press of New York, whicb constitutes an inteiiectaal Congress in permanent session, where the eventa of the day are discussed, its ideas analyzed, and the bearing and develope ment of both logically demonstrated and fore- shadowed. The diflerence between the American press and that of Vawope is very marked. We need not refer to that of France, for in fact no press exists in the present French empire. Jouraal- ism there has sunk into its aborigioal slate— pamphleteering. All public and political ques- tions are now discussed in painphiets, of which three or four are issued daily, not unfrequeatly on the same subject, In England, which vonsts i triumphed here, aad is beginning to make | of her free press, journalism consists of the elaborate essay formerly issued in pamphlet form, but oow published in columas, with a ee- ries of stiff and formal Parliameatary and police reports, aud advertisements attached, to make up the newspaper form. To read understandingly any single issue of the leading Loudon jour- nals, a man must have gone through « collegiate course, be familiar with the classics and ancient mythology, and have an extensive acquaintance with the titled nobodies of the Old Worid. The German press is characterized by an intense love of mysticism on one side, and a violent ad- nriration for impracticable abstractions on the other, and all of them are strongiy swayed by prejudice and class affiliations. The only jour- nals in Europe which really publish independ- ent articles and truthful expositions of events and ideas are some two or three that have been established under Russian influeace. The independent press of the United States belongs to an entirely different order of things. It is the creation of our unparalleled eocial growth, and forms a living part thereof. In Furope an exaggerated individualiam stimu- lates, controls and cramps the social derelope- ment. A Louis Napoleon in France shapes everything. In England a Palmerston anda Russell alternate in the direction of politics, a Brougham rules in literature, aad in every field some one or two individuals are found, beyond whom no colaborer mustadvance. Ideas are, in fact, ruled by mea. | Here, ou the contrary, individualism sinks in the maes, and ideas rute all men. Individuals are prominent for a time, as they ride oa or re present the ruling idea; but a new thought, a different intellectual impulse, another Geld of social developement, presents itaelf, and the lead- er of yesterday sinks into the crowd of follow- , ers of to-day. Hence the vitality, the many- sidedness, the influence, of the independent press of America. It clings to ne maa or clique, to no idea or echoo! of ideas, as a per- manency. It discusses, analyzes, and accepts | or rejects, events, ideas, mea and things, as they rise, and, separating the wheat from the chaff, gives the latter to the wind and the former to the garners of intellect, constituting « perfect record and history of its time. It forms a part of ovr growth wader our peculiar institutions, and oa its part contributes largely to that | crowth, with a power which the stiff’ elabora- tions of such old fushioned journals as the Na- Sova! Intelligencer and its compeers never knew j and never caa achieve. Mr. Gales was a very geotlemanly man in his way, but he could aot nuke a live newspaper.

Buxction ste isG.—It is due to our newepaper organs, orators and stumpers of al! parties in this campaign to say that thus far they have conducted them- selves with remarkable decoram in their de- bunciations of each other. The coufisiou into which our political parties have been thrown, and the comparative coolness of the weather, may account for this remarkable apiril of com- parative decency among our conflicting politi- cians; but still there are some ugiy exceptions to thia general rue. We have a case before us. A wandering republican stumper, of the name of Andrews, is the man. It appear: that in a stump speech delivered at Fishkill, the other evening, this vulgar fellow, not satisfied with the broad field of discussion fairly opened before him, did not hesitate to invade the sanc- tity of the family altar. Thus be may be described as throwing open the doors of the house of Mr. Douglas, and as pointiag to the estimable and accomplished lady thercof a: # Catholle, “a confirmed Romda Catholic, very bitter,” dc., &e., in order to prejudice the winds of bis anti-Catholic hearers against one of the democratic candidates foe the Presidency. Can anything be said too stroug in con- demastion of such basences’ If thix man Andrews bad possessed aay respect for the common courtesies of social life he surely would have récoiled from trespasaing beyond the threshold of the fumily circle with hie denuaci- ations of its head. Mr. Douglas, as a public man, iz a fair subject for public discussion; but bis house, for all that, is bis castle, which should not be entered without permission, and thea the man of honor leaves his enmities, as he would leave a pair of disty overshoes, outside the door. 3 But let the bad example of this eulgar fellow Andrews be generally adopted as @ rule of po- litical warfare, and the public man who res pects himself will sufficiently respect bis fami- ly to withdraw in contempt from any public position in conseqnence of which the innocent and shrinkiug members of his household maz be exposed to the offensive ribaldry of a viga- bond stump speaker. Lf the campaign mana- gers in behalf of Lincein and Hamtin have any desire to maintain a respectable position in this canvass, they will take this fellow Andrews, when he next repeats the offensive slang of his Visukill lecture, or anything like it. and put him out; and if this will not quiet him, they may be doing him a service by giving hin an informal baptism in the nearest horsepond. Our governing classes, of late years, have brought our repubiican iustitutions into some disrepute among the nations abroad. Our beautiful syetem of free government bas thus been held up as a warning to the people of England. To maintain our proper position among the great Powers of the earth we must disabuse them of these false impressions. The heir to the throne of England is at our door. With an observing retinue of the Foglish aris- tocracy, he will soon be amongst us. If we would show tbem that our political institutions are fully adapted to the highest order, civi- lization and refinement. we must afford them an example of order and decorum in the manage- ment of our political agitations. In this view, for the sake of out good name abroad, it is to be hoped that our distinguished visiters from Fagland, when they come, will not be brought within hearing of any such vulgar stump ora- tions as thai of this man Andrews at Fishkill.

But if this thing were to occur in the ancient days we speak of; if forty bandits from the moun- tains were to enter a city of Haroun-al-Raschid or Charlemagne, and steceed in carrying off $105,000, they would despatch a posse of their awiftest and bravest troops after the robbers, catch them, and bang them ona the aearest tree, in their white hats and yeilow gloves, ali in a row, as they deserved. But what suail we” do with our forty brigands, who seem to grow boid- er every dey, and whose vext feat may be a descent upon the banks, the Custom House or the Assay Office? Happily the white hatted and yellow gloved bandits of New York have not yet secured their prey. One taxpaying citi- zen hss come forward, in the name of all. and gives notice of motion in the Supreme Court. demanding that the Mayor, Comptroller and Commonalty of the city shall be forever restrained by due process of law from levying the sum of $105,000 upon the property of our citizens, which the Com- mittee of the Common Council ask to be in- serted in the tax levy. for the entertainment of the Japanese Embasey. We publish in another columa the complaint of Mr. Levi S. Chatfield, presented to the Supreme Court, in which he makes some startling allegations, the most pro- minent being that the Lelands churged the enormous sum of $21,000 for boarding the Ja- panese at the Metropolitan Hotel for a period of ten days. and that an agreement was eatered into between these gentlemen and some mem- bere of the Common Council whereby the lat- ter were to receive one-third of this amount for auditing the bill. Can this charge be true, or upon W dat foundation is it based, it it be not literally correct? If it uss oo solid foundation in fact, we presume that the Lelaads will meet it with a prompt and full denial. We are glad to know that this infamous ewin- die is about to be ripped up and exposed in the courts. Let us have every member of the Joint Committee of Aldermen and Councilmen, the Lelands, the livery etable men who fur- vished the carriages, the hatters aud glovers v.bo furnished the Aldermen, ali upon the stand, uatil we discover in what way the city was to be cheated out of $105,000 for a ten days spree of the Corperatioa. Let every item of this monstrous bill be criticised, or. if the com- mittee refuse to furnish the items, thea let the whole smov wiped out, as with a sponge, by a perpetual injunction, and let the indivi- duals who ted the Aldermen and Council- men look to tiese respectable aad responsible parties for payment. Ia no case should the taxpayers be burthened with such an infamous piece of robbery; and we hope the court will protect them in this suit. Tus “Person Cuno Hiwserr Ma.
