MIR EVERETT AND THE NEWSPAPERS

Mr.. Edward Everett, as contributor to the news
paper press. continues to be the subject of remark
There are many who regard Mr.. Everett in his new
vocation az having descended from lofty eminence
to one of questionable character and distinction. 1t
occurs to that the tree had better be judged by
its fruit. If Mr.. Everett has ability and the true
sources of mind for which he has been credited he
will suffer nothing by the moderate weekly drafts
made upon him under his arrangement with Mr.
Bonner. 1t is proper, however, to say that Mr. Ev-
eret has been drawn into channel that is likely to
test his resources The newspaper is practical
school. Those who wish to be known by the glitter
of their ornaments rather than by the vgor of their
intellects will never win fame and distinction
through such mediums. There is large class of
famous in this country who, if subjected to the
sharp work of newspaper controversy, would fall
into obscurty in less time than that allotted to Mr.
Everett as contributor to the Ledger. We would
not intimate that he will fail The subject and the
objects of his labor are sufficient TO inspire less
thusiastic person than Mr., Everett Washington
Irving has said that nothing is difficult TO write
or speak in the face of expectation. When Mr.
Irving uttered this there very few newspapers
III was not tuen province OF Tue press 10 pup
ish every morning elaborate criticisms on current
politics. literature, religion, science, and art Now
the press is great institution, embracing by long
odds the best intellect in the world. Everything
else in the way of types is mere fgysm, cold, life
less matter, which few, born in the present cen
tury, think Of reading. The Publication of matter
by the press Of the United States during the last
ten years was larger than that thrown off in all
shapes by the combined press of the would from
1850 10 1900, The newspaper will absorb all the
monthlies in thirty years more.
Mr. Everett then, in our judgment, instead of
having descended into newspaper literature las sim
ply put his powers to the test IL he is successful
his fame win become enlarged and solidhed. lie is
known now to the intellectual world only for HE
deliberately compositions the elegance aud
beauty of their finish, and the moderate amount of
thought and instruction mboded in them. Every.
body knows the effect Of costuniing.

to seek the reorganization Of institutions, and
make them conform TO their fayorite model aud are
thus disqualified if they are dishonest, they are
clearly unworthy Of public trust II il is said they
submit to the present system out Of Difference TO
Others then il follows tat their judgment is against
IT, and common delicacy would forbid their be-
coming active parties in the administration.
lt is manifest from the tone of the Advertisers
article, which presume 10 be the product of the
present speaker of the Massachusetts house Of rep
resentatves that il has become the imperative duty
of the people and government of the Union TO 10
il that he federal offices filled only by friends of
the constitutions Those who set up above that com
pact higher law and those who seek its practical
subversion by introducing into the government
ures tending to generate and animate the sections
are unworthy OF public trust and confidence. 1t is
folly to maintain that abotionist is properly in
stalled in Congress- in the executive departments
An aboiitonist is a who subjects everything TO
his grand scheme of enaneipating the negroes. He
has set out on mission of freedom to the blacks
and he will pursue it to the utter enslavemen
of his own race. His eyes closed to everything
but his darling project Is such man fitted to
be the representative of the peopel Above all, is
he properly charged with the duty of executing the
laws of this government

EDITORIAL RESPONSIBILITY.
FROM n, New York paIly rnbunc Of The I4,l

From the New York Daily rrbunc of the l4th
The Evening Post it seems, holds It's editors response
bic for and the enorsers of every opinion that may be
expressed through its columns except in its advertise
ments This it has perfect right to do, and we find
fault with IT, But the Tribune, we'll known, has
different rueone that has been hundred times pro-
claimed and is universally known The editor of this
paper neither dictates superyses the opinions that
may be incidentally expressed political economic,
other controvered topics by its correspondents yet
by the reporters or its columns OF the various markets
Thus we have recently engaged the manager of the
Coth Hall Association in city to report the markets
for domestic fabrics which markets print exactly
he furnishes them Whatever opinions may be expressed
or implied n those reports not of the Tribune, but
of the Cloth Hall Association, its manager, whose
name given with each article If the Post chooses to
controvert those opinions, have objection, and
have doubt that it well get good as il gives But
after reiterated and emphatic notice that they not the
Tribune opipions--that neither incite modify,
and are wise responsible for them-we submit that
the Post only persist in quoting and representing
them as ours by dsngenuousness which dees not fair
ness only, but decency ID is precisely par with
the trick of quoting commendstion OF some nostrum
from among advertisements and having it repro
duced all the country, credited TO the New York
Tribune.

What could be more untrue, what more absurd
titan to charge the four millions aud half making
up the five latter items to the expenses of the army
In the preceding fiscal year, that of 1857 osi this
same latter class of expenditures amounted to
5000, 401 of which than onefourth ex-
pended on the Capitol aqueduct and Post Office
building, with which the army has much concern
it has with the in the moon. What gross
perversion of truth, what gross injustice to the
army is il, for senators the floor of their hall
to dep0unce these expenditures as among the ex-
trayagances of the army
The estimates for lS59-G0 sent in from the War
Department the beginning of the present session
for all expenditures under its direction, SIS,
Ol0, 900; and they have been since reduced we
have before said, to Sl7,520o90 They are not for
the army exclusively, but in considerable part for
objects chargeable purely to congressional expend-
iture. They are as follows for

writer's ignorant of the facts, bat by orators ia Con
