Our EXCHANGES willsdo us a favor
(which we will cheerfully reciprocate) },
by noticing the changes in the Excel
sior, which take place this week. ~
10- The above very modest request
for puff is from paper published at
Hartford, Conn, called the " Hartford
Excelsior and Home Circle" We would
say to Mr.. Hartford Excelsior, that we
consider it decidedly cool in him to come
to us with that request after the manner
in which we have been treated by him.
We would just remind him that when he
started we gave him as good notice as
our conscience (albeit not rery elastic
one) would allow, and he exchanged
with us for about three weeks, when his
face was seen no more by us till about
three months after, when he wanted
another notice, and again disappeared
till now he wants another still. We
don't care about the exchange, for if we
must tell the truth, and shame the de-
printing Office errand boy, we don't
think the paper worth the copy Of the
Echo which we should have to send in
exchange (; but we don't like to be in
suited in this way. We have exchanges
on our list, one number of which is
worth more than a volume of the Ercel-
siOr, which come to us regularly and
have never asked for a notice, and We
presume do not wish it unless considered
worth it, which is. the case with all
really valuable papers, ace never asked
for a puff fD-but are willing to leave
it to the discretion and courtesy Of their
brethren of the press. We have heard
it said that "there is honor among
thieves" and we are very sorry to be
obliged to confess to belief that there
has, by some means, crept into the
editorial fraternity, some who are desti.
tute of this essential requisite for a
respectable member of the light fingered
corps.

Ddy" A Mr.. Stark, in lecture before
the Young Mems association of Troy,
N. Y, thus defines fop:
"The fop is complete specimen of
an outside philosopher. He is one-third
collar, one-sixth patent leather, one
fourth walking stick, and the rest kid
gloves and hair. As to his remote an
cestry there is some doubt, but it is now
pretty we'll settled that he is the son of
a tailor's goose. He becomes ecstatic
at the smell of new cloth. He is some
what nervous, and to dream of tailor's
bills gives him the night-mare. BY his
air, one would judge he had been dipped
like Achilles; but it is evident that the
goddess must have held him by the head
instead of the heel. Nevertheless, such
men are useful. IF there were no tad
poles there would be no frogs. They are
not so entirely to blame for being devoted
to externals. Paste diamonds must have
a splendid setting to make them sell.
Only it does seem to BE- waste of ma
terial, to put five dollars worth of beaver
on to five cents worth of brains"

bH- We trust our friends will be as
lenient as circumstances will admit to-
wards whatever shortcomings may be
apparent in the Echo of this week, as
one of the editors has been engaged for a
part of the time in watching the weather
and trying to find an opportunity to re-
move his family; the other one has been, as
the sailors say, under the weather; the
foreman has been engaged in removing,
between the showers and the devil went
off on an experimental sparkling tour
which detained him for two nights and
one day, besides making it nearly i'm
possible to bring his ideas down to such
everyday affairs as type-setting for the
remainder of the week.

To Day, is the title Of literary
paper, much after the style Of Dickens
Household Words. 1t is published in
Boston every Saturday, under the edito-
rial care of Charles Hale, Esq, and is
well calculated to fill vacancy in the
literary world 1t covers a wide range
of subjects, and possesses some of the
characteristics of the reviews, monthly
magazines, and daily and weekly news
papers of the time. 1t contains histori-
cal and biographical articles descrip-
tons of men, places, and things stories,
true and fictitious poetry; articles of
literary, scientific and classical informa-
ton; notices Of music, art, and the
drama, and a general summary Of news.
And what adds charm to the work is,
its articles are all original, and elaborate
ly finished, thus insurlng to the reader
the certainty of his finding nothing in its
pages which he has read elsewhere.
