The Mystery of Editing.

The world at large do not understand
the mysteries of a newspaper; and, as in
a watch, the hands, that are seen, are
but the passive instruments of the spring
which is never seen, so, in a newspaper,
the most worthy causes of its prosperity
are often least observed or known. Who
suspects the benefit which paper derives
from the enterprise tho -visiieuvo and
the watchful fidelity of the publisher2
Who pauses to think how much of the
pleasure of reading is derived from the
skill and care Of the printer? We fee;
the blemishes Of the printer. We feel
the biemishes of printing, if they exist,
but seldom observe the excellencies.
We eat a hearty dinner, but do not
think of the farmer that raised the ma
terial thereof, or the cook that prepared
them with infinite pains and skill. But
cook of vegetables, meat, pastries and
infinite bon-bons, has paradisical Office
in comparison with an editor! Before
him pass in review all the exchange news
papers. He is to know all their contents,
to mark for other eyes, the matters that
require attention. His scissors arc to be
alert, and clip with increased industry all
the little items that together make up
the news department. He passes in re-
view, each week, every State in the Un-
ion, through the newspaper lens he looks
across the ocean and sees strange lands,
and following the. sun, he searches all
around the world for material. 1t will
require but one seconds time for the
readers to take in what two hours re-
search produced. By him are read the
manuscripts that swarm the office like
flies in July. II is his frown that dooms
them. 1t is his hand that condenses n
whole page into line. 1t is his discreet
lsternness that restricts sentimental obitu-
naries, that gives young poets twig on
which to sit and sing their first lays.
And the power behind the throne, in
newspapers MS in higher places, is some
times as important as the throne itself.
Correspondents, occasional or regular,
stand in awe at that silent power which
has the last chance at an article, and
may send it forth in glory or humanity.
And, in short, as the body depends upon
good digestion, so the health of pa
per depends upon that vigorous digestion
which goes on by means Of the editor.
Ought they not to be honored? And
since little fame attends them, they should
at least have their creature comforts mul.
tiplied. From that dark and dismal den
in which they have so long had purgato.
. rial residence, they are at length trans
lated Henry Ward Beecher.

A GOLDEN THoUGIIT.-We know not
the author of the following, but it is one
of the most beautiful productions of the
human mind we ever read:
Nature will be reported. All things
are engaged in writing their own history.
The plant and the pebble go attended by
their own shadows. The rock leaves its
scratches on the mountain side, the river
its bed in the soil, the animal leaves its
bones in the stratum, the fern and the
leaf its modest epitaph in the coal. The
falling drop makes its sepulchre in the
sand or stone; not footstep in the snow
or along the ground but prints its char
acter more or less lasting, a map of its
march. Every act of man illscribes itself
on the memories of its fellows, and his
own face. The air is full of sound, the
sky of tokens; the ground is all memo
randa signatures, and every object is
covered with hints which speak to the
intelligent.

LITTLE THINGs.-Springs are but lit
tie things, but they are sources of large
streams; helm is little thing, but it
governs the course of ship; a bride bit
is little thing, but see its use and pow
er; nails and pegs are little things, but
they hold the large parts of large build
ing together; a word, a look, frown,
all are little things, but powerful for good
or evil. Think of this and mind the
little things. Pay that little debt-its
promised, redeem it-if its shilling,
hand it over-you know not what impor-
tant event hangs upon it. Keep your
word sacredly-keep it to the children,
they will mark it sooner than any one
else, and the effect will probably be as
lasting as life. Mind the little things

\ Nor DENoMINATIoNAL.-R Alfred
Taylor tells this story of a boy who had
risen under the lure of Sunday School
sweatmeats and picnics, to the perfection
of a certain latter-day idea of undenom-
national breadth:
"Where do you go to Sunday School,
Jimmy? ?'
"Why, marin, go to Baptisses, and
Methodisses, and the Presbyteriums, but
I've been trying the 'Piscopals for two or
three weeks"
You don't seem to belong anywhere,
Jimmy?"
Yes, marm, don't you see? / be-
longs to 'em all, excepting the 'Piscopals,
but I'm going to jine them too, now"
Well, Jimmy, what's your idea in
going.to so many?"
"Why, you see, gets little of what's
going on at 'em all, marin. / gets liber-
ries, and hymn-books, and all that; and
when they have picnics, goes to every
one of 'em."

Remarkable Case of Trance.

'~'r~ -''N>- ~" 1859 ~ sAAS
people OF Whiteland, johnson county,
Indiana, have been much excited recent
ly on account OF young woman named
Van Arsdale, living in house in capac-i
ity OF servant, who had recently been
taken Ill and had to all appearance died.
Preparation was made for her funeral,
but 1T was stayed on account OF certain
phenomena connected with the body.
Alter remaining in this state twelve hours
the young woman awoke and told strange
things OF her visit to the other world, and
who and what she saw in heaven and
elsewhere. The Herald says:
Miss Van Arsdale sent for a humber
Of persons IN the neighborhood, and not
only impaired to them news OF lost
friends Dut told OF sans commitaed- by
tnenl supposed 10 pe unknow by any one.
Among Others was man who had par

the pand had been Kept a profound Sc
cret' ana TINS man had not even been
suspected. one narrated a good many
strange things, relating manly to indi-
viduais Doth IN this world and the other,
many OF which 1t would have been al
most Impossible for her to have invented.
But the strangest part OF the story is yet
to come. A few hours after the expira-,
ton OF the first trance she predicted that
she would have another, and told to q
minute the time at which it would COM
mence, and at which it would end. Ev-
erything turned out as she had said at
| the exact time she fell into the same
state. In an ordinary trance or catalep-
tie state, resriration is not suspended. but
in this case breathing could not be OBJ
served. She was to all appearance dead !;
but the pulse beat faintly. and The body
was not cold. All sensation was gone.
| The physician made numerous experi-
ments, priekine the BODY, opening the
veins. and SO forth, to discover If there
| could be any deception. In the end he
was perfectly convinced that there was
none. AT the expiration of the time set
by herself she came to, and in few
hours she was well enough to leave hen
bed and go about the house. The story
Of her experience in the second trance
was similar to the first one, and was con
| fined almost wholly to individuals. She
seemed unable 10 describe the places she
had been in, but gave histories of events
and persons with remarkable minuteness
Ssfe also said that she would never have
