Q3-The absorption OF time required of the
editor public journal is one OF his very best
safe guards. against hi mself and others. Why,
he has his living 10 attend to-he has his cares
and Ihen he has his road TO steer. There are
commolions in the public mind around him,
there are ambitions and aspirations, there are
enmiiies and friendship to be subserved all a
.ound him. aud there are too, abuses that
ought TO be met and putdown. To do JUS
tice and act i.htly, to advance the public in
teress, to discriminate, to pursue the line
OF true duty, is very hard thug. The consci-
eutiaus editor trie, always to be right He
"would rather be right than be president" he
would rather be right than accumulate money,
bat that on some OF the many subjects pre-
scented to his view, he Ears he may have done
wrong, wounded friend, embttered an enc
my, or d me public or private I'M Justice. 1t
Is batter. then that he should have no time to
think except when sleep forces him into her
embrace and cares are mingled with dreams.
We have yet published little or nothing in
relation 10 he arrest OF officers of the army
zen Scott, and we even omit the article from
ghe correspondent Of the ST Louis Republican,
which has been kindly furnished us BY friend.
We do SO because we think it unwse in the
public press, aud unjust 10 the fame Of all, to
ioreslal the action OF the court martial which
eu.ust be convened to try the merits Of the
controversy between our gallant and high
snililed officers.
