The Philadelphia Sentinel, whose editorials are
certainly both rghtioned and instructive has the fol-
lowing remarks touching the various and varied du-
ties Of those who 'direct the public press"
The preparation of editorials Of right tone and in
strucveness is small part Of the duty Of those who
direct the public press The selections of an editor
are quite indicative Of excellence and competency,
and quite potent for good or evil upon the mass Of
readers the most carefully elaborated production Of
his own pen and brain. And yet this latter Of la
Dor is last to be appreciated by the unthnking reader
and often least regarded among his responsibilities by
the editor intent upon popular qualification. The
best papers that come into hands not those
which contain the longest editorials. Dry and point
less most of them are, look for alIment and
fIeshment to the garneed scraps and fragments Of
ludicious editors table.
A brief sentence Of dignfed reproof is often far
more effectual than whole pages OF precepts. The
records of history furnish us with numerous exam
Piles in illustration of this axiom. | need not quote
the instance OF Canute's reproof to his couriIers,
which must doubtless be familiar to every class of
readers. The following anecdote is, probably not
universally known: A situation of responsible
ty under the Persian government being vacant, the
shah desired his chief minister would recommend
some person to fill it. The minister mentioned the
name of whose abilities he thought suitable to the
Office. "The man you mention" answered the en-
peror sis Jew and Of course, by our laws ineligible
to the 81 uaton." He as, please your Majesty, but
has lately embraced faith, and may therefore be
employ Speak of him more was the reply
he who has been false to his God will never prove
true to his Sovereign"

In my last communication, said that the Wings

Mr.. Clay brought into the Senate bill without any
clause to this effect; effort to introduce such a
clause by amendment failed and the bill passed both
branches with such provision

clause, if they thought it right to do Blu, there

construction of the Constitution which the Wings
had always asserted, and the people had now sane
toned. But, in the first place, large part of the
Wing party had never admitted this construction; and
if all had admitted it, how il renowned by this
amendment 1t could hardly be thought so, ii this
question were to be judged by the rules Of common
sense and common life. Most men, not to say all
would be startled to find that they had renounced
abandoned and lost every claim and every principle
which they had not expressly asserted and maintained
at all times and under all circumstances. But il is
also said that the clause introduced new and most
dangerous princple-to wit that Of compact between
