Lie journal, aud duly appreciatng the delicate
position OF person who indites and selects TO
meet ths tastes Of a heterogeneous class of peo-

The Editor.
Few people imagine the arduous duties in.
cunbent upon the editor of u public journal.
HIS life 10 one Of patient toll, deep thought
and constant research. Unlike members Of
other professions, he has no leisure, because
his work Is never done; he has every conceiy-
able taste 10 Crafty, and labors necessarily to
accomplish that end; yet the difficulties of
pleasing the Heterogeneous mind are SO great,
being almost impossible, he rarely succeeds.
Somebody will always be found to find fault,
either for what he has inserted or what he has
left out. 1t is y singular fact that the articles
e1acting the greatest study, and which he con-
siders the most preferable, are frequently
passed over by the reader without notice;
while others requiring but little thought are
eagerly perused. The editor can not follow
his own preferences; il he does, he pleases
himself alone. lie may feel an intense dis.
gust for horrible accidents" CT 'denouements
in high life" yet II Large share OF his readers
crave them as "A person with disordered
stomach does unwh olesorne food; be may be
Dauseated by marvellous tales or egregious e1-
ploits, yet many OF his readers will leave his
most erudite productio us unread for a story OF
some moustrosity. Tue politician wonders
why he has no exhaustive leaders upon the
"Cbina question: but il lie publishes an
elaborate dlsqulsition on that subject, every
one else wonders why uch uuinterestng mat
ter was allowed to occupy SO much valuable
space. Young gentlemen, just beginning to
discover the shadow Of u coming event on the
upper lip, think the columns deficient in ro-
nance. Young ladies would like TO see some
thing about the newest styles III bonpets. Old
Percent desires the latest quotations. from
Montgomery street in the monetary columns.
ParsOu Brownell wants u com InentHry on the

generation being ruined by reading notices
OF horse races, base ball match es aud other
sporting items. Ladies of uucer tain aye, who
have not come under the RESTRICT Uns OF cover
ture, must hear some lively scandal; while their
crusty OppOs'ies look for dIsser tatIon upon
the weakness aud eITavagsuce of woman. 4"
The farmer wants TO know the most approved
ideas upon agriculture; while his wife aud
daughter prefer something more sensational.
All these different tastes have to be gratIied,
and It is the editors study to satisfy them, re-
curing result not easily obtained. Every
