Duty of a newspaper editor. —To peruse daily from forty to eighty Ameri can newspapers with such attention as may be necessary for culling from them such articles, great and small as may suit flic diversified tastes of a number of roas ilers. To peruse, with the same object, at least one regular file of a London daily newspaper—each paper containing as much matter as a volume of the Waverly novels. To read, from time to time, when the ships arrive from foreign ports, great bundles of papers in the Trench, (Span ish, and Portuguese languages; and, if the editor happens to understand those lan giuigcs, occasional bundles in German mid Italian. To examine the English magazines in search of anecdotes, tales, and poetry for the ladies. To examine the State Documents which are issued by the Federal and iStale authorities—each of them us long as a speech in Congress, ami as dry as a talile of logarithms. We say nothing of the duly of putting new novels, recording daily occurrences, (v lining the communications of corres pondents for the press ( the last mentioned duty we more frequently neglect than per form.) Neither do we say any thing of littehfion to the mct/hanical allairs of the ollice, Sc to pecuniary concerns.

Kkwauiis of a newspaper editor. — To be reviled by the malignant, and misun derstood by the stupid. To have your sentiments misconstru ed and your motives misrepresented. To labour for years together, making great personal sacrifices, forthe advance, *'syou fancy ,of important principles, and, after your labor is completed, to find that you were laboring only forthe advance ment of one to whom you never had any confidence. To be courted by politicians on the eve of an election and by men who are not politicians, on all occasions when you emi render them a service through your paper, and after these services are ren d.-red, to be forgotten. I’o hear each of your patrons declare himself friendly to the liberty of the press: and tin-.’, that by liberty ofthe press, the great majority mean liberty to ex press sentiini nts exactly similar to their own and none other.

Y. . American. UNPUBLISHED PERFIDY. HISTORICAL. i Every body is talking ofthe expedition r to Algiers; and yet no one possibly sus pects the motives which led to it. Seek not its causes in the angry outbreakings ofthe Dey, nor in violation of the law of nations, nor in any other injury; that would be a waste of time. The boxen the ears of our Consul, the insults to our flag, would have long remained unpun ished, ifthe hero of Monmartre, Marshal Marmont, had not taken it into his head to go and revive in Africa the laurels which he has tarnished in France. To this end he proposed certain plans and laid them, — before whom? t\\c hero of Waterloo proditor proditorem fricat —and thus we have these two great Renowns ofthe day meditating the conquest of Algiers. The Duke of Kngusa [Marmont] says to M. de Bour mouut, “You, as minister, get my plan adopted; I give it up to you, and you shall have the honor of its success.” “And you,” replies his cunning Excellency, “you first conceived the idea of this war; you shall he commander in chief.” There upon the two faithful friends embrace encli other, and entcrchango numberless pro testations. The plan is submitted to the Cabinet and unanimously adopted. “All is settled,” says the Minister of War to the Duke; “you made the Egyptian cam paign,—you know all about the Arabs, and besides, what is to he undertaken— a seige—and you are an artillery officer; make ready, therefore, to go.” The mar shal uses all speed, he undertakes labor ious investigations, collects all sorts of materials, makes alt his preparations, even points out the general officers whom he desires to have under him, and carries the result of all these labours to M. D. Bournumt “It is well,” replies his Excellen ; cy with a smile and a warm pressure of the hand. In about a fortnight Marshal Marmont reads in the Moniteur, “the King names ' as Commander in Chief ofthe army ofthe ' expedition his very dear, well beloved, loyal Count de Uourmont.” The Duke of Rugosa was duped—the star of Mont ' mativ turned pale before that of Water loo. The two Generals had renewed the fable of the wolf and the fox, and M. de Bourmont prevailed. SULREY. AN excellent SULKBY, with Double Spring Top—For sale by L. HULL. August I I 90 ; BILLIARD TABLE.
