We do wish that our esteemed

-We do wish that our esteemed
Republican contemporaries and friends
would drop the practice of saying The
United States is Nation" They may
say, if they please. 1.-The United States
is a Hotel" or 1.-The United States is
a Steamboat" and not offend against
the rules of grammar and the teaching
of the fathers, but if they go on using a
plural nominative with singular verb
they will soon get to saying Garfield
are weak candidate" and the like.
The line should be drawn at the Consti-
tuition Let the laws of the language,
at least, be respected. Y. World.

General Beauregard, in reply to
an inquisitive man in Washington, has
written another letter to deny the abb
surd Republican campaign whopper
that he once made General Hancock
haul down the flag at his headquarters
before he would consent to dine with
him. Beauregard stigmatizes the
charge as ''calumny," which is plain
ly too strong a word for such idiocy.

General Garfield is in on

General Garfield is in one respect
the most unfortunate of candidates. OF
all the most serious charges brought
against him in relation to his public life,
not one originated with the Democrats.
They were preferred by his own Con-
gressional associates, his own constitu-
ents, and his own party friends.-Bosto'a

THE LABOR OF AN EDITOR.

The London Times, speaking of the
work of an editor, says it can only be ap-
preciated by those who have had some ely
perience in it. The meerest slip OF the pen,
an epithct too much, a wrong date, name
misspelt, or with wrong initial before It,
the misrepresentation OF some
passage, perhaps incapable of inter
probation, the most trihing otfense to the
personal or national susceptibility of those
who do not even profess to care for the
feelings of others, may prove not only dis
agreeable, but even costly mistakes; but
they are about the least of the mistakes to
which an editor is liable. The editor must
be on the spot till the paper
is sent to the press, and make de-
cisions on which not only the APP
proval of the public, but even great causes,
may hang. He can not husband his
strength with comparative repose in the
solitude of a study, or the freshness OF
green fields. He must see the world con-
verse with its foremost busiest actors, be
open to information and on guard against
error All this should be borne in the
mind by these who complain that journal
ism is not infallibly accurate, just and
agreeable.
