THE TURKISH MISSION.

The Norfolk Herald, referring to the queer re-
velatIons which have been made touching the
mission to Constantinople, observes:
The writer, we have reason to believe, has cor
rectly stated the case Of MIR. Tyler's promise of
the Turkish Mission to DIR. Mallory, and other
circumstances connected Herewith. 1t is well
understood that DIR. Mallory neither asked nor i'm
umateL desire to receive any Office at the hands
OF Mr.. Tyler; but the latter, moved perhaps by
sense o, the Doctors services. as one of - the
Guard" without such solicitation voluntarily
promised him the mission to Constantinople on
lis being vacated by the death of Com Porter
ana afterwards gave it to another, with the hope,
as this writer lntimates, of thereby influencing
me Maryland elections! 1t is by no means pro-
osDie that DIR. Mallory will offer any complaint
OF 'his preach OF promise on the par, Of Mr.. Ty-
Ter; but how the latter will settle it with his
friend Wise, through whom the promise was
made, we feel some curiosity to learn.

The sixteen,h Annual Fair ofthe American Ia.
sttute closed at New York on Friday evening,
after being open sixteen days. The number OF
visiters during this Fair is said to have been
greater that on any former occasion, and the art-
c'es exhibited were also much moro numerous.
Among those of most general interest not hereto.
fore noticed was an eleva,ing water-wheel by Mr..
q. Andrews, Of Paterson, New Jersey, which is
thus described
at is propelled by the simple current Of a
stream, may be used where there is not a head of
more than one or two feet, and is of course adapt
ed to our vast Western country, where decided
ta'i Is rarity. This wheel is let down into the
water Just far enough to take advantage of the
current and avoid back water, and SO is accom-
,nodated to any state Of the stream. When not
IN use 1t is readily hosted clear Of the water and
so remains unaffected by ice or freshets while the
velocity OF the concentrated and unimpeded cur
rent prevents the formation Of ice below. This
wheel has been six years in operation at Pater-
son, and is warmly commended by the principal
citizens OF that place."

EDITORIAL WRITINGS

Inc Alexandria Gazette says "a few DAYS
ago the National 1ntelligencer had some sensible
remarks on the subject of editing a paper. One
idea expressed has frequently struck us with
great force. Many people estimate the ability of
newspaper, and the industry and talents of its
editor, by the quantity of editorial matter which il
contains 1t is comparatively an easy task for a
frothy writer to pour out, daily, columns of ,Uords
,cOrds upon any and all subjects. His ideas NAV
how IN zone weak, washy, everlasting food,'
and his command of language may enable him TO
string them together like punches of onions; and
yet his paper may be meagre and poor concern.
But what is the labor, the toll of such a man
who displays his 'leaded matter ever so laroe
ly, to that imposed on the judicous well informed
editor who exercises his vocation with an hourly
consciousness OF Its responsibilities and it's dn-
ties, and devotes himself to the conduct of his ma
per with the same care and assiduity that a sensi
Bile lawyer bestows upon suit, or humane phy-
stefan upon patient, without regard TO show or
display! Indeed the mere Writing par. of edit
Ing paper, is but a small portion of the work.
The industry is not even shown there The care
the Tune employed In selecting is far ore impor-
tant-and the tact OF a good editor is better shown
by MS selections than any thing else; and that,
we all Know, is hall the battle. But, as we have
said, an editor ought TO be estimated and his la
bors understood and appreciated, by the general
conduct OF his paper--its tone-its temper--its
uniform, consistent course-its principles-jts
alms-Its manliness-its dignity-its propriety.
10 preserve these as they should be preserved. is
enough to occupy fully the time and attention o.

A STEAMER WITHOUT A CHIMNEY,

Much has been said by the New York press in
favor Of this new frigate. They consider her one
OF the swf,est vessels of her class ever upon the
ocean. She has no paddles at the sides, bu,
what rs still more remarkable, she has no smoke
pipe. In his most ardent praises Of the inpor-
lance and success Of steamboats,, both upon the
rivers and the seas, Fulton never even suggested
that they would be built and used without Chin
ney. This is not only new but most extraor-
binary improvement. in the application Of steam to
the driving of ships through the deep. As no
particular account of the invention has vet been
given to the public, il is greatly to be hoped tina,
Captain Stockton will visit Boston Harbor with
his new and wonderful craft, and thus give our
sellow-citizens an opportunity to examine her and
witness her specialization .afias.
To this paragraph the New York American re-
plies:
Our Boston friends will have chance before
long OF having their wishes complied with. The
interior of the Princeton is not yet finished. She
came round here in the rough, as il were, to give
the Western trial |; but when her inside arrange
ments are completed, the Bostonians will have a
chance of testing her speed with the fastest of
the Cunard Steamers.
