NOTICE TO CoRRESPoNDENTs.-It il our r
duty, as journalists, to carefully revise all 5
matter that goes into our columns. We 5
assume to be the best judges Of what is in il
tercsting and suitable, and what is not. b
Hence, when we prune our correspondence n
or reject altogether, we do so because 9
our experience and taste suggest that they t
should be pruned or rejected, and because, t
under such circumstances, it is our plain a
duty to do so. We hope our cerrespon- I
deRts will not be offended ut the liberty, I
for we prize their contributions in the /
main, very highly. We solicit a csntinu- 4
ance Of their favors, but we will more q
rigidly exercise our right to pruue or I
reject them in the future than we have done {
in the past. &
