! The New York Mirror in the following par
agraph gives utterance to great many editors
sentiments better expressed
| A POPULAR MIsTAKE.-We almost daily re-
| ceive communications for the Mirror, whose
! writers are under the impression that the over
tasked editor will feel very grateful for some
thing to ''ill mp his paper" This is a great
mistake. Our "galleys" are always running
over with "matter" waiting for publication
What we do want-and what all editors want
lis that which best pays. We do not publish
a newspaper for the sake of giving our own
thoughts daily airing, That woald be like
driving an omnibus merely for the sake of the
ride. Neither do we conduct journal for
the benevolent purpose of allowing our friends
10 use our cotumS gratis Tor their own private
interest or satisfaction. That would be like
running omnibus for the purpose of giving
ones friends q ride,and without compromising
sixpence.
The EXECUTIONS OF THE FUGITIVE SLAVE
LAw.-The Milwaukee Free Democrat says:
"The time is near at hands even now at
the doors-when the men who, for the sake
of Office, will become the tools of the slave
catchers, in the execution of this infamous
law, will be regarded throughout the free
States as the moral lepers of society, who
would sell the liberty of human being for
ten broad pieces of silver, and enrich them
selves with the blood of their victims The
willing servants of the slave power, what an
inheritance they are preparing for their child
rem. Their own sons and daughters will blush
at the mention Of their deeds, and mourn over
the calamity of such parentage."
