The Sunday Times, speaking of the people
employed in newspaper office, says: The
shabblest looking man among them is the drudge
editor; he who writes from three to four columns
daily, who must go to every fire for the particu-
lars, feeds modestly at a side table at a public
dinner while he makes a brilliant account of the
proceedings, persmbuates the city at midnight
for true and particular version of the last acct
dent, suicide or murders and picks up all the
sparkling jokes that season the toast at breakfast.

The shabby man is put into little six by twelve

breathing the vapOrs Of a smoky lamp, ne sorawls
his articles on such waste paper as can be pur-
chased for mere song. The cell contains but
an old inksPotted coverless table and feeble
chair. From such holes emanate all the disouisi-
tons which characterize the independent press Of
New York.
