EDITING A PAPER.

We copy from the Olpelousas Gazette
of January Is, 1880, the following, which
shows that twenty-eigbt years ago the diff
ficulties of an editor of newspaper were
the same as they are now-the same as
will always exist:
1.-THE truth is, an editor cannot step
without treading on somebody's toes. If
he expresses his opinions fearlessly and
frankly, he is arrogant and presumptuous.
If he states facts without comment, he dar-
ed not to express his sentiments. If he
conscentiously refuses to advocate tie
claims of an individual to office, he is accu-
sed of hostility. A jackanapes, who meas
ures words into verse as clerk does tape
by the ynrd-hands him a parcel of
stuff that iingles like handful of rusty
nails and gimlets, and if the editor is not
fool enough to print the nonsense, "stop
my paper-1 wont patronize man that's
better Judge of poetry as if it were pat
ronage to buy a paper at about one-half
more than SO much waste paper would
cost. One murmurs because his paper is
not literary another because it is liter
ary-another because it is not literary e.
nough. One grumbles because the adver
tisements engross too much room-anoth'
err complains that the paper is too large
he can't find time to read it. One wants
type so small that microscope would be
indispensable in every family-another
threatens to discontinue the paper unless
the letters are half an inch long-one old
lady actually offered an additional price
for paper that should be printed with
such types as are used for l.andbills.
Every subscriber has plan Of his own
for conducting journal, and the labor of
Sisyphus was recreation when compared
with that of an editor who undertakes to
please all"

judge, it to be full and complete, compre-

information concerning ourselves, of which hereto
fore we have been entirely ignorant.
We understand from Mr.. Christophers, the gen.

the necessary blanks are prepared he will COM
mence his labors. And that our citizens may not
be taken by surprise, will inform them that he
will wish to know the number of families, number
of persons in each, white, slave free coored, their
respective ages, place of birth, their occupation,
number Of births during the year, number of deaths,

Mr. MuLER's LETTER.-One of the cheering signs
of the times, and which augurs we'll for the future,
is the patriotic and selt.sacriicing pursued
by men who have long distinguished themselves as
able and accomplished opponents to the democratic
party Flinging aside all minor local differences,
they are coming forward to sustain and uphold the
only party capable of checking the vigorous assaults
made upon the constitutional rights of the Southern
people, They have nobiy sacrificed long-cherished
opinions upon the altar of their country, disregard
ing what may be said or thought of them by former
friends present allies they abandoned party ties
when they found them incompatible with their du-
ties as citizens of the Southern States. They have
preferred country to party-paramount duty TO per-
sonal feeling, and are fully deserving of the conf
dence and respect of the truly patriotic of all par
ties and sections.
Among these fearless men, none can stand higher
than the gentleman whose opinions are recorded be-
low The honored leader of once influential party
in this State he occupied prominent station among
his fellow -citzens-the idol of his own party, and
warmly admired, even by those who were the OBJ
ects OF his brilliant and eloquent denunca
tons. There must be strong motives to induce a
man like Henry W. Miller to resign his proud posi-.
ton as leader, and take his place among the rank
and file of the democratic party. 1t is a painful
sacrifice to a man in private life to change his
opinions upon public topics, and must be douby so,
to one situated as Mr.. Miller has been. Throwing
aside all selfish feelings, he has openly announced
his altered CONVICTIONS based upon the noblest Of
human motives, ian earnest desire to do my
country and the prosperity and safety of tht
section that gare me birth" With such an object in
view. Mr. Miller afford to pass in dgnified
silence the attacks Of men who, being unable to soar
above partizan preudiccs cannot appreciate his dis
interested conduct. War. Neaos.
