a veteran editor, after an experience of q
quarter Of a century, gives it as his opinion
that the newspaper business, if long follow
ed, will give any one poor opinion Of the
common honesty ofmankind Hear him
1--WE have tried the business more than
he eighth of century, and regret to say
that our estimate Of the aggregate honesty
of mankind has been considerably lowered:
There is great deal of latent, undeveloped
rascality in the race, and if man has any,
of it in his composition he is sure to exhibit
it when his newspaper subscription be-

| those small amounts, from S. to $50, are
| rolling in wealth, and could pay any day in
| the year if they desired to do so Many
others belong to the migratory tribe. who
arc here to-day, and in Texas or California
tomorrow. Others belong to class quite
numerous, who write to editors to send
them papers and they will pay when they
gather their cotton or do something else,
but pay day never comes and finally, after
sending the paper four or five years, it is
ascertained that they never We're worth
snap! Archer class of losses grow out
Of the negligence of postmasters. A sub
scriber, after taking paper six months or
year, leaves the country without giving
the editor notice, and after four or five years
have elapsed, he happens to meet with the
| postmaster, who most magnanimously in
forms him that his subscriber has gone to
"parts unknown" and if he wishes to get
any pay for his paper he had better stop itf
Or, after suffering the paper to come two or
three years, he writes to the editor for the
second or third time, he will inform him.
that the paper is not taken out, &c. These
losses, and various others we might refer to,
absorb the profits of the business to such
an extent as greatly to discourage those en-
gagged in it. ..........,
Although we have had our full share Of
nen-paying subscribers, and have been
worse swindled than any other publisher we
know, we take much pleasure in saying that
we have on our books the names of many
gentlemen, whose punctuality through a
long series of years always paying in ad-
vance-entitles them to be rated as the salt
of the earth.' Oh, for an increase of the

Occasionally, some one in long arrears,
moved by tardy sense of justice, pays his

MISCELLANEOUS READING.
SAM SLICK IN PARLIAMENT.

On Monday last, Judge Halliburton made
his maiden speech When he arose the
House was hushed to silence in mo-
ment. but his speech was not a success, aud
1t is clear that Mr.. Halliburton, racy writer
rs he is. is no orator. The characteristic of
Mr. halihurton's work is rollicking fun and
humor. but there was nothing of this sort in
his speech. Ii was just such speech aS any
country gentleman might have made. The
appearance of Mr.. Halliburton is that of
sturdy old gentleman farmer, utterly unlike
what from reading his works you would i'm
agine him to be. He is, according to bod.
only sixty-three years old, but he looks older.
We should, from his appearance, take him t"
be ut least seventy. LOndon Times.
