THE EDITORS FRIENDS. 



Mr Dear Mil "Kubal" Emtois: — A great many 

 limes I have thought what a favored mortal an ed- 

 itor niust be especially 11 popular editor. Now, 

 pray don't, before 1011 read any i'uilber. i;n e i,-nl 

 lo one of those ejaculations in which edito*f% are 



wont to. indulge, when their profession is spoken 



of as an avocation ilml is easy, nice, agreeable, and 

 soon, to the end of the paragraph. I know I bat 

 editor's Have tribulations-, trials, and terrible tunes 

 generally; nnd you must have had cares and 

 crosses in rai-ini: jmir Itinu, child, and making 

 him the sensible youth that he is — and then ma- 

 king that " many headed animal, the public," ap- 

 preciate him. Hut ilien, how they can help appre- 

 ciating him ivhcn be comes to their firesides with 

 his new dress on, is more than ons can tell ; for, in 



this part Of this "mundjiie ? phi re," to .-hi;lilli 



revise somebody's poetry, 



But what 1 was going to say when I commenced, 

 and what 1 am going lo say now, is, that an editor 

 is to be envied bec.m-c he lias such hosts ui friends 

 scattered all over the World. Now, you don't know 

 nil of your friends. You have lots of them here, 

 in Oneida comity, whom you have never seen, and 

 who would not know im, if they -hoiild meet you. 

 We hear from you every week, hut you don't hear 

 from us go often. Our letters to you are like 

 "uu gels visits. 1, iv and far between." You mivr 

 have heard from " lirovo Hilt," -perhaps you dou't 

 know where thai particular elevation is situated. 

 I should like to Icll you something about it, and its 

 vicinity,— about its crops and cattle,— its fanners 

 und their families, including the fair daughter.., of 

 ,Y,i,n,,— speaking about the vicinity remember, 

 oh! there's lots ol things that I should like to say, 

 but just now I inn only going to say, before I for- 

 get it, that it's nice to be an editor. It must be 

 gratifying to you to think when you are traveling, 



any other intelligent-looktog, — (well, I am not go- 

 ing to say anything. 1 simply because they don't 

 know you by sight. 



Now, let me sit on your shoulder like the cr<,<ul 

 g.OMiis in the old fairy Inle. and point out to vmi 

 some of your unknown acquaintances, whom you 

 have bene tiled and made happy. Over there is an 

 old farmer— the one with the genial look, and u brown 

 cheek. Hi rou yh which there shows a " struggling 

 red," like the sunny .-ukof 11 good Koibu.-y Kn-n 

 Well, he is one et lout tin mI-, hi nl be is a friend to 

 be prized, if you only knew him. And he is a man 

 to be envied, if any body is in this fust age. He 

 owns a farm, back in the country, and he's rich. Yes, 

 sir, he is rich— OSttMM fc OWmi a /arm. He has 

 worked and paid for it, and now he is out of debt and 

 independent. His money is invested in a bank that 

 will nut break, one that voids i;ood yearly divi 



dnnda EUs (arm belongs "to him and to his 



heirs forever," and it reaches half way down to 

 China! And he has no doubt but be might work 

 bur inches of the surface of the 

 opposite farm of ■' Boone W*> a" in that CelcslUl 

 Country, and he nei er would know the difference, 

 read anything in that barbarian 



then the "snl .-ran delusion. 



He has a whole family of friv-nds, too,— from the 



son who has married and moved away, clear down to 

 tho "little mischief*' whnprefcrstoadoni the walls

who wen- cured in rooms properly lighted, was 

 four times greater than that of those confined in 

 This led lo a complete reform in 

 ligliim- Uu hospitals of Itnssia, and with the 

 most beneficial results. In all cities visited by 

 the cholera, it was universally found that the 

 greatest number of deaths took place in narrow

 exposure, where the salutary beams of the sun 

 were excluded. The inhabitants of the southern 

 slopes of mountains arc heller developed and more 

 healthy than those u ho In ,■ on the Northern sides- 

 while those who dwell 111 secluded valleys are gen- 

 erally subject to peculiar diseases ami deformities 

 of person. These different results are due to the 

 sgenoy of light, without a Full supply of which

 men 1 Imi pusseil, would bear straws in their hands. 

 " Is there a bale of straw lying upon Ibc sidewalk 



up the street''" we asked. I. .niching, he an-iiereil, 



"There is." True enough, of the sis | 



came along, live had straws in their hands, which 



they were toying with or nihblingbelii.cn their 



teeth. The sixth, occupied with his own II gbis. 



pushed gravely on, paying no heed I,, lull,-,, a- 

 wisps or spears of straw. Here then was a decided 

 display of character. The first straw bearers were 

 either men at ease in mind and body, or they are 

 easily directed from their course by any chance 

 allurement that crosses their path. Number

 pursuit. He has no thought of pleasure or the bye- 

 play of life, and is looking strictly and straight

 little indexes may point as clearly the bia;

How to PnosMS is- Bonmaa - In the Brat place, 

 makeup your mind to accomplish whatever you 

 undertake; decide upon some particular employ- 

 ment, and perserere iu it. All difficulties are over- 

 come by diligence and u-.-iduny. Be not afraid to 

 work with your own bonds, and diligently, too. — 

 Attend to your own business, and never trust it to 

 another. Treat every one with respect and civility. 

 Bverytbing Is gained, and nothing lost by civility.

which were there passed? We all bad mam giu-fs, 

 and we felt keenly the scornful look and bitter

 of kindness. Then who would speak harsh to a

and if a hundred people were lo read it, not one of

 like a sword which has a polished blade, a jewelled
