Humility the sweetest, ~loveliest flower
That bloomed in Paradise. aud The first that died.
Has rarely b~lossommed since on mortal soil.
Il is SO frail, SO delicate a thing.
It's gone ifit but look upon itself;
And she who ventures to esteemi it hers,
Proves BY that single though she has it not.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

In conducting public journal, COM
munity expect the editor to prevent any
uncourteous language between contrib
utors for his paper, and especially if
the contributors are of the same party.
OF that uncourteousness, the editor must
be the judge, otherwise his paper would
become vehicle OF SANDER, detraction,
and defamation, by means Of the contri-
buttons of those who would have no in.
terest in sustaining the paper, probably
not even subscribers. We have and
always expect to so conduct our paper
as to give no preference to democrats
in their contributions to our paper, if
the discussion is carried on in courte-
Gus and decorous manner. An editor
is not liable to the charge Of "muzzling
the press" because he takes upon him
self the privilege of deciding upon the
admissability of an article to the col
umns of his paper, and especially ifthat
article contains no declaration of prin-
ciple, but merely tissue Of abuse.
