Several papers within our knowledge
have a way Of putting themselves, in d
sort o sly and indirect way. For instance
one will compliment another with shor,
notice-speak flatteringly of the talent
displayed in its columns, and praise the
energy and perseverance that has en-.
countered, and overcome the difficulties
that lie in the way of newspaper conduc,
ton.
The recipient of the compliment cop
les it (appreciative creatures that news
papers are), taking care, however, to
place it in some obscure corner, where
people are not expected to read. Now
we've half notion to lay aside our usual
modesty, and publish few things said
about us and our paper, and If pretty
things which hare been said are not come
atable, it would not be impossible
to fix up something nice on our own hook
Who would know the difference? We
know not whether anybody around here
takes SguiJob's Erprrss, and very few
within the circulation of our paper, take
the Humbug Adrocatc ; and then, would
not paragraph (vulgarly called a
"puf''), quoted from The Faakey Tones,
or Skem5aH Democrat, which told of the
brilliancy of thought exhibited in the
columns of the PRAIRIE News, look and
sound well, and wouldn't it seem so mod
est, too, stuck off in a corner of our pa
per, where none but the most careful
readers could cit : just suppose we
should Aappen to find something like the
following in HAfier's Gasser.
1.-THE PRAIRIE NEws.-This is the handsom-
est sheet published in out of the State of Mis-
sissippi Native talent flOurishes with unusual
vigur IN its spicy columns, and the keen blade OF
satire as welded by our friend is sufficient to
make one horse papers squat. In short 1T is by
far the best paper we know oi-what there Is OF
it. and, between You and us, reader, there Is
enough of it, such as it il" M
Wouldn't that be a magnificent lift
We would feel ten thousand times Obliged
to our friends of the GaSser. Such a
puff as that would be sure to be the
means of our getting two or three sub
scribers, in the region where that most
excellent paper circulates. With what
feeling of pride, too, would our heart
throb as we paraded it befott our read
ers, to let them know we were apprecia.
ted away from home.

or The whole office, sanctum, and
everywhere else in our vicinity, is redo
leat with rich perfume. The "Deyil''
is deligted, and indeed all of us seem to
breathe in a Mohammedan paradise. 1t
is an influence almost heavenly in its
character, which that bottle of Hair Oil
spreads over us. Our imp grows costa
tic, and says the girl what don't fall in
love with him next Sunday has a very
bad taste, to say nothing of the SMELL
Ward & Jones gave Us that bottle
they're sharp men, know what's what
nothing like putting Pomade on an edi-
tors head-it spreads like wild fire. Bye
the bye, did you know they had received
a new and choice lot of perfumes of eve
ry kind. We wish we6could think of the
names of all to enumerate them-go and
get something which will cast around
you perfume more delightful than the
fragrance of full blown rose.

ORR NEyy IlEap.

lnannounced, our paper made its APP
peorance last week in a new dress. We
don't know whether all will like it; some
may say it is too fancy others too large !;
Others again, may think it isn't pretty,
while there are still some who think it
isn't ugly. Although. willing, as far as
we are able, to cater to the tastes of all,
SO we do not compromise ourself, yet we
have no idea but that our new head, like
our paper, is.not agreeable to every one.
Therefore, those who do not like it must
console themselves with therehection that
we did the best we could for them, while
We pleased ourself. While We are speak.
ing of our paper, we think it not amiss to
tell our friends it is prospecting, and, not
outstanding the threats of the man who
swore he'd break us and our paper
down." because we dunned him twenty
fivetimes in one day, we are more than
happy to say to you all, he hain't done
it yet There are other influential small
| fry who vow eternal hostility to us; but
we don't care a fig for them or their opin-
ions. Their praise would be a disgrace,
and surely their censure will be recon-
mendation. We have gotten a goodly
number of subscribers since we took
control of the PRAIRIE News, and only
lost two or three, and these were nom
paying ones--hope they'll never bother
US any more. If there are any of this
kind on our list now (hole there are
noD, by sending us little note contain
ing no remittance and telling us TO stop
their paper we'll do so, and give their
names gratuitous insertion in OUR pap
er. Note the fact of their never hariag
paid for tile paper they call theirs.

which makes it inferior to none in the

THE RIENZI CLIPPER.

! 1t is very amusing to notice the indus
TRY with which this paper keeps after us.
Several attempts have been made by our
Lpersevering contemporary, to get us after
Thin, which, for the most part, have prov
, ed Intellectual. He seems, however, to
fully realize the truth and force of the
old saying, "Try, try again" AT least
so it seems from the way he bounces up,
and, with face radiant with hope, as
says try, try again, confident of ulti-
mate success. Well, little one, try, try
again has often been said in vain; but
the advice contained in those three little
words was never needed in vain; so you
have at last succeeded in getting anotice
from us. We have about half an inch of
candle which we'll burn for your sole
benefit-much profit may you reap from
this liberality on our part.
We wish, when any one attempts to
give an impartial opinion of us, or state
the position we occupy in regard to any
thing, they would tell the whole truth,
and not half of it. The Clipper says we
(the PRAIRIE NEws) think it would be a
wrong and deprivation of right to the peo-
pie of Kansas, as to admit them under
the Lecompton Constitution. We said,
in an article penned some two months
ago: E" the Lecompton Constitution could,
with more propriety, be considered an il
legal act, were it passed, than wrong
and deprivation of right were it rejected
And here this busy little paper comes up
and says we would consider it wrong
and deprivation of right, were it put upon
the people of Kansas When it makes
such assertions, it should have some more
authority than very indistmct memory.
Our candle has burned out, and we'll
leave the Clipper. If it can talk of moth
ing but Kansas, Kansas, it may whine on
only, when it speaks of us, let it repre-
