EDlrING 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 frothy writer 10 pour out
daily columns Of words-words upon any
aud all subjects His ideas may flow in
one weak, washy, everlasting food, and his
command of language may euable him to
string them together like punches ofonions /;
and yet his paper may be meager and
poor concern. But what is the toll Of such
man, who displays his leading matter
largely, to that imposed on a judicious,
well-iniormed editor, who exercises his
vocation with an hourly consciousness OF
his responsibilities and duties, and devoteS
himself to the conduct of his paper with
the same care and aSsiduity that sensible
lawyer bestows upon n suit or humane
physician upon patient, without regard
to show or display?
Indeed, the mere writing part of editing
paper is but a small portion OF the work.
The care, the time employed in selecting, is
far more important, aud the tact Of IL good
editor is better known by his selections
than anythsng else,and that we all know
is half the battle. But MS We have said,
an editor ought to be esteemed, and his
labors understood and appreciated, by the
general conduct of his paper, its tone, its
temper, its uniformly consistent course, its
principles aud aims, It's manliness, its dignity
and propriety. 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
Of the newspaper establishment, winch most
editors have to encounter, the wonder is
how they find time 10 write ut aIl.-Naf-
iOnai Inteiigeacer.
