The moat dangerous element in American politics to-day, is that mercenary and depraved spirit,wliicli in its treatment of opjxineuts, indul ges in the vilest slander and malig nity. The press and the stump arc olien subsidized to these purposes. Political opponents arc treated by these as bitterest enemies. Their political record is not only traduced and held up in the most distorted light, but their private eliaraetet and life are subjected to the sever, est misinterpretations ami slanders. Their families, too, mid intimate friends, because of these relations. 1 ait) dragged with all of their private i i'tidvsts, rendered unnatural and j fels0 traduction bro the eyes i of a greedy public to Ik' gloated over and made punh.c property ol. No wonder that noble, higb-miiided mull, often shrink buck from the slime, and scurrility, and abuse, and traduction of the political arena. No wonder they look upon politics as a "dirty pool," and professional politicians as men whose motives are entirely scllish and jprcenary High minded, lionorable, sensitive men, can not do otherwise, and do justice to their feelings, than shrink back from running die gauntlet of such contamination, In consequence jjofthis, but Few, in comparison, of our citizens, are elected to ! office. Deniactosfttes arc the rule in office, and patriots the exception. The press of the country is the mosl largely responsible for this, being the medium through which politi cal knowledge and animus is im parted to the minds of the people, l and through its inlluei ce alone can I a remedy be secured. If the press I would confine its criticisms to the political opinions and acts of mo!, j and leave, their private i iterests 1 alone, a !Tcat change (br the better would at once is) wrought. If it wou'd go still farther, and place j itself di a platform of fair and hon orable criticism of political princi I pies and record, a most glorious step ! in the direction of purifying politics ' from tlie dregs of pollution which now corrupt it, would have been taken. The best of men would not then shrink from it. The brightest luster (if mind, the purest patriot ism, the most exalted worth, would drift unerringly upon the tide of public pre'ereiice into the official positions of the land. I hit so longas public journals con. I thine to uphold the acts ot dema gogues and unprincipled men ; so ' longas opponents are subjected to I the vilest of slanders and the mosl , malignant traductions of public and j private character ; so long as u,i 1 fairness, distortion, misreprosonta. ! tionand falsehood continue as char ! acteristics of American political journalism, polities can but remain degraded.
