Ever inway heart the music swells,

Ringing cut on memory’s helly, {
Brightly gieams that spot of my life,

In ehildhood's innocent happy days; |

~ The Editor of a Local Paper.
If any position demands genius,
and will be satisfied with nothing
short of it, it is the position of ed
itor of a local paper. |
In the first olace he must know
everybody’s peculiarities, and be
cognizant of all faults and failings,
‘and the faults and failings of their
grand-fathers, and grand-mothers,
and cousins, and aunts, and moth
ers-in-law, else he will be hable to
get something into his paper which
will hurt somebody’s feclings. |
He must print eyerything sent;
by any old subseriber. If a man
subserihes for his paper, he claims
a right to give ‘his views on hen
raising and pig-killing, and theol
ogy, and the moral aspeet of dan
cing—no.matter if he cannot spell
pig correctly, JTand does not know
of g single case where some beauti
ful young lady dropped dead ina
ball room!~ - }
The local editor is expected to
give every man, and every man’s
husinesgs, g gratuitous puff. If Mr.
A, is painting his house, it must I)e}
m ‘ntioned in the paper; and if’
Mrs. B’s calla lily is in bhlossom,
she wants the momentous fact set
before the public in printer’s ink,
headed with capitals, :
When Jones kills a hog weigh
ing four hundred and fifty, that ‘
must he chronicled; and when ‘
Brown dispatches another, weigh
ing four hundred and sixty, that
must be put in type: and so on
through the list of all the others
big porkersin town,
When there ig a wedding, the lo
cal papet must publish a list of the
| - o
isalt'cellquz, and butter-dishes, and
coup-ladles, and photagraph-al
\bums. bestowed by the loving
friends ; and if he does the thing
up in good style, and remarks feel
ingly on the beauty of the bride,
he will be rewarded with a slice of
gpiced brick-bat, frosted with hard
tack, wedding cake ; and if he eats
it, he . will need to take a box of
pills, and two or three bottles of
sarsaparilla, befare he is well over
s ;
. The local editor must nevor in
dulge in personalities. He must
pass lightly over the fact that
yvoung Jenking, the son of the rich
Squire Jenkins, was arrested for
drunkenness ; and he must noi al
lude to the fact that Deacon Grimes
wha gives so mach for the support
of religion, made his money oy
light weights and measuros.
~ He must always be ready to give
copies of his paper to his friends for
their friends. IHe wmust not think

There muyst be ot Jleast two mur
ders, three divorces, and one' sui-i

will be thrown down ds flat and
stale! No life init. So stupid !
It must noi coniain 'ty;)ogmph

poetesses in that secetion; and if,
the kisses should be printed hisses,
and the shouts be printed enouts
—which’ will sometinies hapyen
when the N§. is illegible—then
that editor’s fate is sealed, and the
succosg of his paper is ruined, for
she will never, never send him an
other effugion g 0 Joig as she lives.
No, indeed. 1
The local editor bas a hard :rowl
to hoe; and if he iz neutral in pol
itics and religion it is still harder.
But let him Dbrace up and do his’
best, for evervhody knows that if
fame does not come to him so soon
as he expects, fortune is on the
way to him if he waits long enough
for it to reach him. For there is
no surcr way to become a million
aire than to publish a lacal paper |
