Journalistic Courtesy.

The want of journalistic courtesy, the
disposition TO personnel ties, and the Tree
usa OF epithets and abuse are becoming to
common, and really nro marked features
In American journalism. And why should
tne.u things De tolerated, or winked ut IN
the newspapers OF the country. any more
than among the gentlemen OF society,"
Why should misrepresentation, abuse and
malicious feelings be moro tolerated in
the press than among individuAls
and why should the press afford 4 screen,
from behind which the srrows OF malice
are shot, which. in the personal intercourse
OF citizens, would never have been taken
which newspapers indulge towards each
other may be, by IA certain class OF society,
con sidered the spice or seasoning OF
journal SIN; but II must DO very Initiated
taste that requires such continent to
make its literary food palatable. Occa.
sionslly the result OF abuse ana personali-
ties on the part OF editors may be seen In
the uut,mely taking OIL OF one, and the re-
morse for life OF another; but, AZ rule, the
same responsibility does not seem TO at
t.ch when ungentlemanly epithets and
coarse accusations reek the channels OF
Newspaper columns, as when uttered face
10 face by word of mouth. Rival newsps-
pers often descend IN their tits against
each other to the billingsgate, which. in
general. they condemn, ana some
times in the attacks made on
nnblic men ana citizens, vulgarity and in
decency are the prominent features OF the
language used. An editor is not entitled

M will. doff decency and don the vulgar,
and in his character as editor he should be
held lust as responsible TO society as in his
character OF simple citizen. II 10 cowardice
to hide behind the supposed License
