Young Men in Business Life.

Rev. W. f. Conner spoke last evening at
the Arch Street NJ. e. Church on young
men in business life. He prefaced his re-
marks with the statement that he had not
investigated the subject, and that hence any
thing he might say was based ON what
people had told him. He believed that each
man should choose a calling early in life.
He also believed that circumstances usually
governed the choice.

AN EDITORS WORK.

Some people estimate the ability of a
periodical and the talent of its editor
by the quantity of its original matter.
1t is comparatively an easy task for a
frothy or sarcastic writer to string out a
column of words upon any and all
subjects. His ideas may flow in one
weak, washy, everlasting flood, and
the command of his language may en-
able him to string them together like
punches of onions, and yet his paper
may be a meagre and poor concern.
A column article entering into the de-
tails of chow a boy splits wood" or Il
two-column re-hash from some humor-
Gus writer will not convince the public
that a Horace Greeley is hidden in
their midst. Indeed, the mere writing
part of editing a paper is but a small
portion of the work. The care, the
time employed in selecting, is far more
important, and the fact of a good edit
or is far better shown by his selections
than anything else; and that we know

the general conduct of his paper-its
tone, its uniform, consistent course,
aims, manliness, its dignity, and its
propriety. To preserve these as they
should be preserved is enough to occu-
Ply fully the time and attention of any
man. If to this be added the general
supervision of the details of publica-
ton, which most editors have to en-
counter, the wonder is how they find
time to write at all.
