THE world at large do not understand
the mysteries of a newspaper; and, as in
a watch, the hands that are seen are but
the passive instruments of the spring,
which is never seen : so, in a newspaper,
the most worthy causes of its prosperity
are often least observed or known. Who
suspects the benefit which the paper de
rives from the enterprise, the vigilance
and the watchful fidelity of the publisher?
Who pauses to think how much of the
pleasure of reading is derived from the
skill and care of the printer ? We feel
the blemishes of printing, if they exist,
but seldom observe the excellencies.
We eat a hearty dinner, but do not
think of the farmer that raised the mate
rials thereof, or the cook that prepared
them with infinite pains and skill. But a
enok of vegetables, meat, pastries, and in
finite. L0n10n : 9,1a.5,a paradisiacal office in
comparison with an editor! Before him
pass in review all the exchange newspa
pers. He is to know all their contents,
to make for other eyes the matter that
re
quires attention. His scissors are to be
alert, and clip with incessant industry all
the little items that together form so large
an interest in the news department. He
passes in review each week every State in
the Union, through the newspaper lens.
Ide looks across the ocean, and in strange
lands, and following the sun, he searches
all round the world for material. It will
require but two second's time for the read
ers to take in what two hours' search pro
duced. By him are read the manuscripts
that swarm the office like flies in July.
It is, his frown that dooms them. It is
his hand that condenses a whole page into
a line. It is his sternness that restrains
sentimental obituaries, that gives young
poets a twig on -which to sit and sing their
first lays.
And the power behind the throne, in
newspapers as in higher places, is some
times as important as the throne itself.
Correspondence, occasional or regular,
stands in awe at that silent power which
has the last chance at an article, and may
send it forth in glory or humility. And,
in short, as the body depends upon a
good digestion, so the health of a paper
depends upon that vigorous digestion
which goes ou by means of the editor.
The 11111eries or Mining in White
Pine.
The California papers arc full of notes
of travel to White Pine, the new silver
discovery. Here is an extract : "At one
station the party halted for a square meal.
There was a tent, and in it a huge kettle
of coffee and a camp oven. After wait
ing a few minutes, the landlord came to
the door and snapped out, " Room for
four." Our informant went in with three
other men, and they knelt around a flat
box, which the hotel keeper had turned
down on the ground. On the top were four
basins of strong coffee, and by each dirty
tin was a dirty black biscuit and as egg.
The coffee and eggs were good, and the
biscuits were good on the outside, that is,
the eater had to choose between two evils
—dirt over the top crust, dough under it.
Each loaf was like a Cream cake, perfectly
soft inside. The hungry men tore off
the top crust, and, after blowing, scraping
and rubbing it to remove the alluvial de
posits, put it down with a gusto and tor
rents of strong coffee. The inside masses
of dough were left by each man's basin.
When the men had finished their meal,
and while they were kneeling, their host
put his soot-begrimed and greasy hand
over the box, and spokd again, 'Four dol
lars.' He was paid. Plump went the
silver into his pouchy pocket, and pop
went the four masses of dough back into
the oven. As soon as a new crust was
baked over them, eggs cooked, and the
basins were refilled with coffee, four more
hungry men knelt down, ate off the
crust, rejected the rest of the dough
for another baking, and paid their
dollar each for the meal. It was calcu
lated that one more stage load of custo
mers would finish the biscuits, and put
the landlord to the trouble of kneading a
new batch."
important to Grocers.
The Internal Revenue Record says that
a number of grocers, in different parts of
the country, have got into trouble through
inattention or through ignorance of their
obligations, under the revenue laws, with
regard to articles liable to stamp. For the
information of all such, we would state
that sardines, anchovies,prepared mustard,
syrups in bottles, jams, jellies, meat and
fish sauces, colognes, cosmetics, &e., are
liable to stamp duty, whether made in the
United States or imported. The stamp
must be affixed on each article offered or•
exposed for sale. Sardines, anchovies,
sauces,syrups, prepared mustard, jams and
jellies, are subject to stamp according to
the weight of 'each package'; a one cent
stamp Witte package does not exeed two
pounds in weight, and a stamp of an ad
ditional cent for every pound or fraction
of a pound in excess of two pounds in
-weight. The penalty for each offense.
Dealers should bear this in mind.
Tull first known case in which a di
plomatic appointment, actually made by
President Grant, has been declined, is
that ofMr...T. R. Clay, the colored Lou
isianian, nominated for the mission' to
Liberia. Mr. J. M. Langston, another
colored man, whose:capacity, education.
and redder him every way fit for
the post,.is likely now to receive the nom
ination. 'Sliculd "he 'decline, the Presi
dent must be careful not to tender it to
any of the white men abotit Washington—
'unless 'wants it promptly taken.
. . 14 EfAVE - we a Democratic party among
es?" is -the -inquiry of the Louisville
Courier. Doubtful. The Tammany Na
tional Convention sent it sky-high, last
July—on independence Day.
