WRITING FOR NEWSPAPERS. = Some
people estimate the aOIlIay OF newspa-
per ard the talent Of It's editor by Che
GUAR tity of original matter which it con.
taina. The Literary Journal truthfully
says:
1T is comparatively al easy task for 3
frothy write to pour cut, daily, columns
Of W0rds-w ords upon any and all sub
jects. His IDEAS may flow in one weak,
Washy everlasting flood, and his com
mand of language may enable him to
string them together like punches Of
onions-and yet his paper may be a
meagre and poor concern. Indeed, the
mere writing part Of editing paper is
but small portion OF the work. The
care, the time employed in selecting is
far more important, and the tact Of a
good editor IS better shown by his selec-
tiona than anything else and hat, we all
know, is half the battle But, as we have
said. an editor ought to be estimated, and
his labOrs understood and appreciated,
by the general conduct of his paper-its
tone-its temper-itg uniform, consistent
course-itS ailns-its manliness-its die
nity-its proprlety. To preserve these
as they should be preserved, is enough to
occupy fully the time and attention OF
any man IF to this be added the general
supervision Of the newspaper establish
m, ut, which most editors have to en-
counter, the wonder is how they find
time TO write at all"

SOMETHING ABOUT ECHOES.

A good ear cannot distinguish one sound
from another unless there is an interval of
me ninth Of second between the arrival OF
the Two sounds Sounds must. therefore.
succeed each other at an interval Of one ninth
OF second in order to be heard distinctly.
Now, the velocity Of sound being eleven hun :
dred and twenty feet second, in one ninth
OF second the sound would travel one hun.
dred and twenty tour feet.
Repeated echoes happen when two obsta
res are placed opposite to one another, as
parallel walls, tor example, which reflect the
sound successfully.
AT Ademach, in Bohemia, there is an echo
which repeats seven syllables three times at
Woodstock, in England, there is one which
repeats q sound seVeAteen times during the
day and twenty times during the night An
echo in the villa Smionetta, near Milan. is
said to repeat sharp sound thirty times au
dbly. The most celebrated echo among the
anclents was that OF the Meteli, at Rome
which, according to tradition, was capable OF
repeating the first line OF the Hneid. con
tanning fifteen syilables, eight times dis
tnctly.
DR.. Birch describes an echo at Rosenheath
Argyleshire, which, it is said, does not now
exist. When eight or ten noLes were PLAYED
upon trumpet, they We're returned by this
echo upon q key third lower than the orig
inal notes, and shortly after upon a kew still
lower Dr. Page describes an echo IN Fair
lax county, virginia, Wnlcn possesses sim
liar curious property. This echo gives three
distinct reflections, the second much the
most distinct Twenty notes played upon d
flute returned with perfect elearness. But
the most Singular property of this echo is
that So me notes OF the scale are not returned

notes which are either thirds, fitths, Or oc

There is surprising echo between two
barns, in Bevldere, Allegheny County, N Y

two or three sylables it has been heard tc
repeat thirteen times. By placing ones sell

viii be double echo, one in the direction oil
each barn, and monosyllable will be repeat

A striking and beautiful effect of echo is
produced in certain localities by the Swis
