suit OF Shefmans sactiea That their
retreat will be slowly, bet surely follow

tance Of forty miles, aud for several
days past they have been occupied in

Soaih Carolina with the Gulf and the
northern States The object seems 10
be to isolate Branchville, Charleston and
Augusta from all possible aid or rein

ing truthful paragraph
We receive at this Office thirteen daily
newspapers, and from sixty 20 eighty
weeklies, all Of which We make it point
to read. From this mass and labyrinth
of matter we carefully select such ar
tieles, items, gems, and tit-bits as com
prise the miscellany Of our columns
Each editor acts upon this principle;
hence, each individual paper is an epi-
tome OF the whole; and in proportion to
the extent Of the editorial judgement
contains the quintessence Of the whole
IL requires more talent to make good
selections than il does to write good
leader; hence, we imagine that the pop
ularity Of a paper depends to great ex-
tent on its selections. The editor is a
fool who imagines he can write better
on all subjects than any Of bis coutem-
poraries. We all have our speeialties-
some peculiar gift in which we may ex.
eel many others Il Is the art Of com
bining these gifts, aud culling their
choicest gems, that makes the readable,
eagerly-s0ught-for splendid journal.
