INJUSTICE TO PUBLISHERS.

Mr.. Joseph Medill, on retiring from the
Cleveland Leader, before taking charge ofthe
Chicago Tribune, wrote long and able val.
edictOry, from which we clip the following
pertinent remarks:
"The result of my observations enables ME
to state, as fact, that publishers of ;ewsla-
pers, are more poorly rewarded than any 9th
er class Of men in the United States who in
vest an equal amount of labor, capital and
thought. They are expected to do more ser
vice for less pay, to stand more sponging and
dead heading 60 puff and defend more peo-
pie, and sorts Of people, without fee or hope
Of reward, than any other class. They cred
it wider and longer; get Oftener cheated; suf-
fer more pecuniary loss; and are oftener the
victims of misplaced confidence, than any
other calling in the community. People pay
Il printers bill more reluctantly than any
other. 1t goes harder with them 10 expend
dollar on valuable newspaper than ten on a
useless gewgaw, yet everybody uvuils him
self of the services of the editors and prin.
ters's ink. How many professional and DO
litical regulations and fortunes have been
created and sustained by the friendly though.
unrcquitcd pen of the editor! How many
embryo towns and cities have been brought
into notice, and pulled into prosperity by the
press! How many Railroads now in success
full operation, would have ioundered but for
The assistance of the 'lever that moves the
worldr In short, what branch of American
industry or activity has not been promoted,
stimulated and defended by the press? And
who has rendered it more than Il miserable
plttance for its mighty services! The ba. |
zaars of fashion and folly, the haunts of APP
petite and dissipation are lhronged with an
eager crowd, bearing gold in their palms, and
the commodities there vended are sold at |
enormous profits, though intrinsicaly worth
less, and paid for with scrupulous punctuali-
ty; while the counting room of the newspa-
per is the seat Of Jewing, cheapening, trade
orders, aud pennies. 1t is made point of
honor to liquidato II grog bill, but not Of dis
honor TO repudiate Il printers bill"

SToP THAT BoY!-A cigar III his mouth,
swagger in his walk, lmpudence in hs face,
care-for-nothingness in his manner. Judg-
ing from his demeanor, he is older than his
father, wiser than his teacher, more honored
than the mayor Of the town, higher than the
President Stop him; he is going too fast;
he don't see himself MS Others see him; he
don't know his speed. Stop him ere tobTGco
skaters his nerves; ere pride ruins his char
acter; ere the loafcr masters the man; ere
good ambition and manly strength give way

such boys! They are legion, the shame of
their families, the disgrace of their towns,
