Weclip the following paragraph from an
exchange paper, and ask our readers, as a spe-
cial favor. TO read it attentiveIy. 1t expresses
our sentiments exactly. If our subscribers
will just clip this paragraph from the Journal,
and stick it up at some convenient point, so
that they can easily see it whenever they are
disposed to think the paper dull or uninteres-
ting, they will do us an especial favor, and
we have no doubt do themselves, at Leaf some
of them, an equal service in the way of check
ing the fault finding, grnmbling disposition
which is but too common with newspaper
readers -
Selections for Newspapers people
think the selection of suitable matter for a
newspaper the easiest part Of the business
How great an error 1t is by all means the
most difficult To look over and over hun
dreds of exchange papers every week, from
which to select enough for one, especially
when the question is not what shall, but what
shall not be selected, is no easy task If eve
ry person who reads newspaper could have
edited It, we should hear less complaints. Not
unfrequently is it the case, that an editor looks
over all his exchange papers for something
interesting, and can absolutely find nothing
Every paper is drier than contribution box ;
and yet something must be had-his paper
must come out with something in it, and he
does the best he can. To an editor who has
the least care about what he selects, the wr-
ting that lie has to do is the easiest part of
his labor.
Every subscriber thinks the paper printed
for his especial benefit, and if there is nothing
in it that suits him, it must be stopped it is
good for nothing. Some people look over the
deaths and marriages, and actually complain
of the editor if but few people in the vicinity
have been so unfortunate as to die, or so for
tunate rs to get married the previous week.
An editor should have such things in his pa
per whether they occur or not Just as many
subscribers as an editor may have, so many
different tastes he has to consult. One wants
stories and poetry; another abhors all this
The politician wants nothing but politics.
One must have something smart, another
something sound. One likes anecdotes, fun
and frolic, and his next door neighbor Won
ders that man of sense will put such stuff in
his paper. Something spicy comes out, and
the editoris BLACKBOARD. Next comes some
thing argumentatve, and the editor is a dull
fool And so between them all you see, the
poor fellow gets roughly handled. And yet
to ninety out Of a hundred, these things
never occur. They never reflect that what
does not please them, may please the next
man; but they insist that if the paper does moi
suit them it is good for nothing.

at an unfavorable period. My Immediate nre.
decessor encountered difficulties which were
both unpleasant for himself and unfortunate
for both governments. Being resolved, in nv
relations with your Majesty's government, to
observe a course both honorable and beneficial
to both countries, / have INDUCED the hope
that may fulfil the duties of my mission in a
manner entirely satisfactory to my own gov
eminent, and at the same time agreeably to-
that of your Majesty.
Permit me, in conclusion, 70 express my
best wishes for the health and happiness Of

Ihe Emperor's Reply The Emperor re-
piled TO this speech in English, as follows:
81 receive with pleasure the Credentials
which you present ME in the name OF nv good
friend, the President OF the United States
They show that the same friendship and good
understanding subsist between my government
and that of your country, and of which be-
lieve you to be true interpreter, who will
remove the weighty difficulties in which your
immediate predecessor involved himseli.''

MRS PARTINGTON

This garrulous but amiabe old lady, who
is in the habit of expressing her opinions up
on matters and things in the columns of the
Boston Post, reminds us very much of Mrs
Malaprop in the play, who takes such strange
liberties with the Kings English. We have
collected few of her latest sayings, which
may serve to give our readers taste of her
quality -
The east winds had given Mrs. Partington
an unpleasant sore throat. Dr. W
thinks I've got the brown creeters,'' said she
TO one Of her sympathzng neighbors. "I
don't half disgust my food 7uther, and nv
pallet troubles me dreadful. The doctor has

me. What dear man that DR.. W is!
The HnimentS of his face is benevolence it.
self! He's so devoted, too! 1t does some
times seem as if he was willing 10 make a Sa-
crament of his own life for he good Of his
patients"
" The Queen was drunk with all the hon.
ors! ~ repeated Mrs. Parting:on to herself,
while reading an account of the DeKay diftler
at Cork. "WeIl, if that isn't the heater. Pm
afraid her ministers don't preach very good
morals to her; and what an example to SET
her children, even allowing she is queen w
''The printing press is great steam en-
gine,' said Mrs. Darlington, " but don't be-
lieve DIR. Franklin ever invented it 10 commit
outrages ona poor female woman like me- 1t

EN- and she dropped three stitches in her ex-
element. They ought TO Think continued
she, that them who makes sport of the aged
don't never live to grow up!''
"After ALL said Mrs Darlington, 81 begin
to think that those persons are right who say
that our government expenses might be re-
trenched Just in the matter Of powder and
shot, for instance, what shameful waste
