breaks of popular violence in this country without
the deepest sorrow. They are eagerly seized upon
by the monarchists Of Europe, and by the enemies
of republican government every where, and made
the foundation OF arguments against the safety and
practicability OF free institutions Of such charac-

cendary and obnoxious course but the exercise Of
mob law, In utter defiance of every principle of JUS
tce, was calculated to infict on the country still

outrage and resistance to the aws but, happily, by
the faithful exercise of the power Of the Judiciary,
the supremacy of the law has been vindicated, and
the aggressors visited with prompt and merited
punishment.


All these manifestations OF spirit of rebellion
and disorganization, may be traced to the dsorga-

natical and revolutionary "reformers" as those who
