THE editor Of the Marion Patriot in an
article on "The Duties Of Editors" describes
the different classes Of patrons. One class
is as follows: ..
The next class of patrons which should
command your earnest solicitude, are those
who do not perhaps, advertise so freely and
indeed they may not even read your paper,
unless they chance to pick it up on a neigh
boris counter But they have a very fine
sense of propriety as to what should appear
in your columns. And wo must allow that
they have much better opportunity of
knoping what is proper, than We inasrnuch
as they generally have nothing to do but to
criticise the work Of others, while, you are
aware, our time is pretty generally taken up,
and frequently with hsrrassing cares that
unfit us for cool, deliberate judgment. Now
if these careful souls, these public censors of
the press, suggest any particular course to
be pursued by you, be very careful that you
do not slight their suggestions; as such in.
difference on your part may imperil the sue
cess OF your paper for all time TO come.

How ihe Explosion at City Point ORR
Einaled. tr ....s

r. .#- SAnateu- -.-I..rr ...f
That the explosion originated in the
careless handling of the ammunition, seems
to be the established theory. AT any rate,
such carelessness has frequently been no
ticed and spoken OF, and apprehensiOns ex-
pressed Of explosions on that account. The
theory Of rebel torpedo, though strenu-
orisly urged by its originators, has few es-
pOusers, and seems to be going farther than
IS necessary for a solution af the dreadful
catastrophe If there had been no aInmu-
milton in the neighborhood, to say nothing
of the careless handling of IL, a torpedo or
something of the kind, would be necessary
to a solution but as 1t was, think the
theofy is making confession and sugges-
ton to the enemy, and giving them credit
for military enterprise which they do not
deserve. ! have heard no argument on
the torpedo theory that does net apply
equally well to the other. The fact Of a
part of the hulk being thrown up into the
town, as if by torpedo underneath, while
It was u most extraordinary and frightful
occurrence, is coupled with another known
fact,-that most Of the hath sgemetl to haze
had doua9ard tendency. But let the tor
pedo theory have its good results, Is Goa-
sta7ut vigilance against Ghg such game that
tie qe6s might undertake to play upon as
hers or eIsflpAerer As to the theory of
rebsl emissary having applied fuse to our
ammunition, coupled with the apoeryphal
statement that one or two suspicious look
inO individuals had been seen running
away from the barge Just before the eSplO-
sion. l have tried TO Offset this by the sug-
gestion that great many suspicious look
ing individuals were seen running away
about the time of the explosion, but 1 COM
fesg that the joke $50 stuck in my own throat,
on account OF its seriousness, that it did Dot
have much effect, either as a joke or as an
argument Such a theory would, indeed,
assume greqt laxity on the part Of the GUS
todians Of our ammunition, and especially
on the part of the poor fellows of the 20th

Of Charleston, ample time and unstinted
resources could make It, fills all hearts with
deep and lacerating grief and ranking
spirit of indignation. Fort Gaines has
been surrendered by its commanders Col.
Andersor-with its heavy armament, its
adequate stores of munitions and subsist-
encs, its large garrison of six hundred bat
tle-tested confederate soldiers, its unim-
paired defensive means and appliances, IN
direct, defiant disobedience of orders, and
in the face of the prolonged defense Of Bat
terry Wagner-in the face, too, Of the mem-
orable example Of Fort Sumter, after three
hundred and ninety-fve days Of an unpar-
ralleled bombardment. We had hoped,
indeed, that after the defenseof Charleston,
and the attacks on Fort AfeAlister, we
should be spared the repetition of suchhU-
initiating disasters as thebscapture Of the
works defending Port Royal Harbor and
Hilton Head, the surrender OF Fort Hat
teras and the reduction of Fort jackson,
at the mouth of the Mississippi, and OF
Fort Pulaski. But all these become inslg-
nifeant in comparison with the crowning
shame-as history must record it in ada
nantine ietters-of the eapitulatiOn to
Farragut Of Fort Gaines, after so triaing
defense against so slight an attack
The works at Mobile are Of q superior
order, and extensive enough at all threat
sened or assailable points. Those works are
provided with guns oftbe heaviest caliber,
such as have been found in every instance
at Charleston potent enough to drive out
of action the monitors Of the enemy IN a
very few minutes.
Forts Gaines, Powell and Morgan are
some thirty miles distant from Mobile
They were valuable adjuncts, unquestiona-
bly, to the defense Of the city, and their
loss is deplorable, but in no way vital to
that defense. Between them and Mobile
have been built, and thoroughly armed,
lina of urorIs commanding the Inner -hsr-
Dor. This line the Yankee navy must re-
duee; land batteries cannot be brought to
bsar upon them-obstTuctiOn and torpe-
does bar the way To be passed; and the
capture Of Mobile should be iar more diff |
hcult problem than was that Of Charles
ton in the beginning ofJuly, 1863 Fsrra-
gut has qualities which make him a more |
dangerous adversary, we confess, than |
Dahlgrsu; but Candy is by 10 means az well |
fitted forthe conduct of siege operations as
Gilmore. Gen. Candy is n mere routihe
without knowledge of
artillery-fearful of responsibility-and, at
bottom, man Of slow, shallow intellect.
