Lift of an Editor.—The following paragraph
is takxp from an English paper, ajjd presents a
just view of the diliicultie, which attend the fife
of an editor of a netr»(imi/sr~who is obliged io
cater for an qjqpwt ipfiiptu vaijety of appptites.
Il remiwkone of hapless flying fish m tfie trop
ics, who is eagerly chased wfiije in his native el
ement by voracious bonitos and dolphins, and
when be makes use of his wings to escape from
these persevering eipmiies, and rises imp the air,
a host of the feathered tribp are waitipg w ith
impatience to pounce upon and devour him;
“An editor cannot step without Ireadii g on
•omebody’a toes. If he expresses his opinion
fearlessly and frankly, he is arrogant and pre
sumptuous ; if he merely slates facts *wilho: I
comment, he dates not avow his senttmeiitx. If
ho conscientiously refuses to advocate the cause
of an individual tq pfficc, fie is accused of per
sonal hosjritility.
“ A jackanapes who measures off* words into'
verse, as a clerk does tapes, by the yard, hands
him a parde of stuff, which ginglet fike.a hand
ful ol rusty nails nnd a pinthlet, and if tire tylitor
is not fool enough to print the nonsenee, “Stop
mv paper! 1 won’t patrmtise a num that is uo
better judjr? o| pantry !” Oim murmurs because
his paper is too literary'; another because it is
not literary enough ; one would have the typo
so small that a microscope would'be indispensi
sable in every family ; another threatens to dis
continue his paper unless the letters arc half an
inch hmg. f n fact, every subscriber has a plan
of his own for conducting a journal, and the la
ior of Si,\ phus was recreation, when compared
with that of an editor who undertakes to please
all.’

The following extracts in' ’letters fiom two of
the most scientific men in our country, will show
the utility of this School.
FRANKFORT, July 19th 1836.
Dear Sir—The four voting L>eutlemon from
the Georgetown Mathematical School,who arc
engaged as assistants in the Engineer corps ol
the State, have pei l'ornicd the duties assigned
them in a very satisfactory manner. Among
the young gentleman of my acquaintance who
, have embraced the Profession of Civil Engi
neering, those who have been educated at Ma
-1 thomatical Schools have generally succeeded
' better than the graduates ol out common Colle
ges.
A knowledge of Mineralogy and Chemistry
I is of great advantage to the Engineer ; and it is
absolutely neecsstny that he should be acquain
ted with Architectural or Line Drawing. The
Student should bo taught the prhicit k-3 us cSn-
struction at the same time lit; is t«
liis drawing.
Very respectfully,
