AN EDITORS TRIALS.
How often we think, When reading the news
An editor could always please you II he choose
But such paper as this, why al must agree
That thing Of less interest they never did see,
But Sir Critic reflect, ere you make noise on,
That one mans meat is another mans poison,
And, lest you persist in your steady deuias,
Wen give you few Of an editors trials.
First pretty young lady. sprghtly and fair,
With paper in hand skips mp 70 the chair,
And, hastily glancing DER all that she saw,
She thrusts il aside with muticred "Pshaw."
No marriages here
think It quito queer,
When there's ever many,
They don't publish any
Here's poetry; And battles,
Sketches And sieges
And tales, And lawsuits,
Without ending Apending.
But no ponics concerts, or parties for me,
Such trash upon paper never didsee.
Next, grave politician, who with dignity grows,
Adjusts his gold spectacles over his nose,
Takes huge pinch Of snuff before he proceeds,
Then opens the paper, and lcisurely reads
or breaches, OF Senate,
And speeches. OF House,
And foreign or railways
REPORTS, And courts.
And SAYS. al he reads the last column of war,
What a strange Kind people these editors are,
These horrible rhymes and love stories 10 print
II twould do any good would give them hint
Now prim old maid the paper cspies,
And, holding il carefully Of from her eyes,
And frequently muttcrng " a 20 and Du tell :"
She manages some way TO read very we'll
The marriages, The Robberies,
Accidents, Murders,
Suicides, All in
Deaths, breath,
And finishes, wonders what sort Of bunder
The whole community must be under,
To support paper whose point is small,
She wonders how some people read 1t az all.
Next, an angry contributor, eager for fame
Rushes into the sanctun To loudly complain,
% I'm ruined. sir runci-my success. sir. is DER,
50 many mistakes were never heard Of before
Look here at this Sonnet Addressed to NV Lady
You've made It A Bonnet and Dress for a Baby :
Don't talk OF my writing,
And say it was that,
You're an editor sir,
But no gcut-that is fat.
The farmer complains that his crop is neglected,
While so much time is spent in guessing who'll be elect
ed;
The minister SAYS IL should be more sedate,
And not so much wasted in matters of state.
And thousands Of other
Complaints made known,
Which the EDITORS back
