1t is not easy for a paper which
condenses all of its news matter, to
always give credit for items borrowed
from other papers, because, should We
give credit for the condensed item We
might attribute to our contemporary
language. or deductions which he would
be unwilling to father. But We can
certainly say that if ever an item is
clipped entire. and is original, or such
an one as the first publisher would wish
credited, We invariably give proper
credit, except possibly in cases where
the omission grew out Of the fact Of not
seeing the proof. These remarks are
not in answer to any complaint, tut IL
