Since they have opened the REcrrrYrNG EsTAD-
LrsfIMENr, the demand for Whiskey Of the ''Blnck
Horse Brand" has so increased, that they have
been compelled to put up another set of Rectifyers
in order to supply their increasing custom.
The generality Of whisky from distilleries con-
tain large quantities of Verdigrs, AIkaes and
other substances decidedly injurious; and accord
ing to the usual mode of rectifyng, much Of this
remains, together with the almost invariabe use of
"drugs'' to give ''proof," which are known to be
poisonous by all who have any acquaintance with
the process.
Our plan of rectifyiEg is original, and different
from all others that we are acquainted with; and
we are determined to supply to wholesale dealers
an article superior to any brought TO the market
at less than st. Louis prices with the expense Of

EDITING PAPER.-IIear what the Ma
tional LnteLtgenCer says about editing news
paper:
Many people estimate the ability of a
newspaper, and the industry and talent of
its editor, by the editorial matter it contains.
1t is comparatively an easy task for a wri-
ter to pour out daily columns of words-up-
on any and all subjects. His ideas may
flow on in one wishy washy everlasting
flood, and his command of language may en-
able him to string them together like bunch
Of onions; and yet his paper may be a mea-
ger and poor concern. But what is the toll
of such a man, who displays his loaded mat
ter largely, to that imposed on a judicious,
well informed editor, who exercises his vo-
cation with an hourly consciousness of his
responsibilities and duties, and devotes him
selfto the conduct of his paper with the
same care and assidlity that sensible lawyer
bestows on a suit, humane physician upon
patient, without regard to show or dis
play.
Indeed, the mere writing part of editing a
paper, is but a small portion of the work.
The care, the time employed in selecting, is
far more important, and the tact Of good
editor better known by his selections than
anything else, and that we all know is half
the battle. But as we have said, an editor
ought to be estimated, and his labors UNDER
stood and appreciated by the general conduct
of his paper, its tone, its temper, its uni
form consistent course, its principles
and aims, its manliness, its dignity and pro-
priety. To preserve these as they should be
preserved, is enough to occupy fully the
time and attention of any man. If to this
be added the general supervision ola news
paper establishment, which most editors
have to encounter, the wonder is how they
find time 10 write all.
