TO the Editor,
Sir-The President sent into the House
of Representatives this morning, message
stating that the Treasury had not available
funds to meet the demands on it, and ask
ing the immediate action of Congress on
the subject. The report of the Duelling
Committee, as it is called, came up in Or
der, and Mr., Underwood, Of Kentucky,
having the floor, spoke for more than an
hour-Mr. Thomas then took the floor,
and after very lucid and strong statement
of his reasons for the motion, moved to lay
the whole matter on the table, and TO print
the reports of the majority and minorities
of the committee, their journal, evidence,
and all documents relating to it. The vote
for laying on the table was, yeas lO2-nays
70. For printing the reports, yeas l24-
nays 7S. Forprinting documents, yeas ls9
mays A. So this business is laid aside fol
the present, as there was no prospect of ever
getting direct vote on the resolutions.

THE LIFE OF AN EDITOR.

The following paragraph is taken from
an English paper, and presents Just view
Of the difficulties which attend the life OF
an editor of newspaper, who is always
obliged TO cater for an almost infinite varle-
ty ofappetites 1t reminds one ofthe hap
less flying fish in the tropics, who who is
eagerly chased while in his native element,
by voracious bonitas and dolphins-and
when it makes use gifts wings to escape
from its persevering enemlmes, and rises
into the air, a host of the feathered tribe are
waiting TO pounce upon and devour him.
Gan editor cannot step without treading
on somebody's toes. If he expresses his
opinion fearlesly and frankly, he is AFRO
CANT and presumptuous; if he merely states
facts without comment, he dares not avow
his sentiments. If he conscienciously re-
fuses to advocate the claims of an indvidu-
al for Office, he is accused of personal hos
hlity.
ga jackanapes who measures off the
words into verse, as clerk does tape by
the yard, hands him parcel Of stuff that
jingles like parcel of rusty nails and
gimblet, and if the editor is not fool enough
TO print the nonsense, "stop my paper,
won't patronize a man that is no better
Judge of poetryl!r' One murmus because
his paper is not literary enough, one would
have the type so small that microscope
would be indispensable to every family; an
other threatens to discontinue his paper I'M
less the letters are half an inch long. In
fact, every subscriber has plan Of his own
for conducting Journal, and the labor of
Gsyphns was recreation, compared with
that of an editor who undertakes to please
