accuracy in Newspapers.

Nothing is absolutely perfectgia this
world, not even the newspapers; and,
with the most complete organization, and
the most vigilant and incessant care, the
best of them, like the best indiyidusl
man, is liable to make mistakes A news
paper, like an individual man, may also
be the victim OF imposture; and, with
the most earnest desire in its conductors
to say and report nothing but what is
true, it may be made to say things which
are the reverse of true. ,
Caution, accuracy, diligence in ascer-
tanning the truth, and scrupulous, con-
scientious fidelity to fact, are as indis-
pensable in q newspaper as they are in
the relations Of private life, indeed in
certain sense they are even more go
since tho newspapers reach aud affect
thousands of minds Such caution and
vigilance arc not only demanded by the
IlaW OF honesty and truth. but by the in
tefest of every newspaper; for no jour
nal can prosper without the, confidenct
of the public. and that confidence car
only be obtained and preserved by truth
