Editorial Duties. It has been often remarked, and very truth fully 100, that a man to write well must think well; and that, in order to do either, even conceding the ability, and, equally important —something to write about—he must have time. And yet a class of readers are quick to condemn the least falling off in editorial in terest, and appear to regard an editor as a mere machine, out of which can be incessant ly ground every variety of reading, at the mere will of the operator, or to gratify their own capricious demands. No matter what the drawbacks—whether perplexed with a thousand business or domestic cares, whether his body be scorched with fever, or bis head racked with pains; whether there is a perfect profusion of startling events, or a gloomy dearth of occurrences—he is expected to be unfailing in bis daily contributions, both in quality and interest I To minister each day to a mass of readers, and to strive to do it acceptably, is our delight. We love our pro fession, and will be as indefatigable in our la bors to interest our patrons as we can ; but we are no steam engine, that does not tire, and cannot perform pack-horse labor without sometimes becoming overburdened and occa sionally flagging by the way side. If people cquld but think or know of the multitude of cares and anxieties incident to editorial life, they would be less exacting and withold their censurable expressions when the columns of a 'paper fall short of their approbation.— Could they know of the large list of exchan ges to be daily culled over, the communica tions to be examined, criticised and corrected -—proof-sheets to be read, and the amount of copy which must be furnished from a hun dred different sources, they would cease to regard an occasional relaxation from editorial labor as the result of indifference or idleness, and be prepared only to express a wonder how such an amount of diversified duties can be performed in a continuous round.—Har risburg Telegraph. An Arkansas Father's Advice to bis Son. —“ Bob you are about leaving home for ■■range parts. You are going to throw me out of the game, and go it alone. The odds are against you, Bob, but remember always that industry and perseverance are the win ning cards; they are the “bowers.” Book laming and all that sort of thing will do to fill up with, like small trumps, but you must have the bower to back ’em, else they ain’t worth shooks. If luck runs again you pret ty strong, don’t cave in and look like a sick chicken on a rainy day, but hold your head and make them believe you are flush of trumps. They won’t play so hard agin’ you. I have lived and traveled round some, Bob, and I have found out as soon as folks thought you held a weak hand they’d all back again you strong. So, when you’re sorter weak, keep on a bold front, but play cautious. Be satisfied with a pint. Many’s the hand I’ve seen euchered ’cause they played for too much. Keep your eyes well skinned, Bob; don’t let ’em “nig” you. Recollect the game lays as much with the head as with the hand. Be temperate; never get drunk, for then no matter how good your hand, you won’t know how to play it; both bowers and the ace won’t save you, for there’s sartin to be a “misdeal” or something wrong. And anoth er thing, Bob (this was spoken in a low tone) don’t go too much on the women ; queens is kinder poor cards; the more you have of them, the worse for you; you might have three and nary a trump. I don’t say discard ’em all; if you get', hold of one that’s a trump, it’s all good, and there’s sartain to be one out of four. And above all, Bob, be honest, never take a man’s trick wot don’t belong to you, no “slip cards,” nor “nig,” for then you can’t look your man in the face and when that’s the case, there’s no fun in the game; it’s regular “cut throat.” So now, Bob, farewell; remember wot I tell youTattd you’ll bo sure to win, and if you don’t, it sarvea you right if you get “skunked.” Ball Room Talk. —A good story is told of a Bostonian’s first appearance in public society in Arkansas, which might be applica ble to this city. The company were engaged in dancing, but the loveliest female present oc cupied a chair at the window without a part ner. Stepping up to the lady, with a palpi tating heart, his mind greatly excited for fear of refusal, he exclaimed ; “Will you do me the honor to grace me with your company for the next set ?” Her lustrous eyes shone with unwonted brilliancy, her pearl white teeth glistened in the flickering candle light, her snowy bosom rose and fell with joyful rapture, as she re plied : - “Yes sir-ree ! for I have sot, and tot, and tot, till I have about tuk root!” .-/■ Specie Hoarded. —There never was a pe riod in the history of our country, when so much specie was hoarded as at the present time. Indeed it is contended by the N. V. Evening Post, tfcal the specie now in the United States exceeds the bank note circula tion. It is estimated that there is about $200,- 000,000 of coin outside of the banks and in the hands of the people. The amount in the banks is estimated at§60,000,000, makings total of $260,000,000. The Secretary of the Treasury puts down the bank note circu lation at $214,000,000. The country is cer tainly rich. Confidence is all that is wanted to bring it out. The wife of a painter in Syracuse died the olher day. Among the sympathizing friends was a young lady from Auburn, a stranger to him. The sympathy of this young lady made such an impression upon the heart bro ken husband that the next day after the fu neral he consoled himself by taking her to bis arms. A city having sold his piano, in consequence of the hard times, is now learning his daughter to play on the wash board. The music is not quite so pleasant, but much more to the purpose. A rural poet, in describing his lady-love says, “She is graceful as a water lily, while her breath is like an armful of clover,” That poet’s case is certainly ‘approaching a crisis. Fob-getting Heb.— “ Peter; I fear you are forgetting me,” said a bright eyed girl to her sweat heart, the other day. Yes, Deb, I have been for getting you these two years.” Condndbbm 1. — Why are our county ex penses like money loaned at 25 per cent. ? Because they have doubled in four years.— Cheshire Republican.
