eyes OF an editor; aud If the course Of the
editor has generally met with his ap-
probation, he ought to have confidence III
him sufficient 10 admil that he mav have
acted right in refusing to publish IA com
municatlon, Notwithstanding it NAV have
been prepared with much time aud labor,
ami perhaps with The Intention of bene fit
