The 'idea that it requires a thorough Training to successfully publish a mews - paper never aeesus to enter the molds of many of those who look upon the jour- nalistic profession as u highway to riches and stepping shine to prefertnent. Many u man who made a stood lawyer, sector. school -inspector, or toucher has taleu the idea int,. leis heel that he was possessed of the necessary parts to make a success- ful editor, and embarked his all en the stormy set of journalism. Inside of twelve short mouths that same mat : wished he had never held such high ct ceit in his own powers as to enter business f it which he hal net leen 1, piously carefully trained. Ir dies n. follow that because 'saws has an ile►Y writing, and has preyed ,s skilful .tssesiil- + ant ill a controversy w lei, under tht shelter of an assumed name: that he a he e,1ually successful when using t editorial "Se,- and when the respires bility attaching to an utterance fetes(' fire cclunlns which he controls will 1 saddled upon the editor, rightly wrongly, as the case may be. Neith does it follow that a roan whiter Comm 'ideation is made presentable by tl editors'■ revision is possessed of tl judgment to carefully revive the writin of others. And aiaiu, simply because man's overweening conceit inakor+ hi believe that,he can write in an inte raining and instructive style, is, afte ail, nu reason why the reading publ should not turn from the drivel which h would foist owes thorn. That so man forsake other callings and rash into th newspaper business is perhaps attribute ble to the fact that the trained newapa per ratan usually seems to have an eas time of it. He is check-qty-jewl 'pit the most prominent politicians ; Id opinion is usually sought upon all publi •luestiens in the town in which he lives his leaning towards any particular objlee is eagerly looked for by interested par ties ; the charitable institutions are iso averse to praise from hint ; the sucietic areanxioua tohavc publicity gi stoutoth• � ti doings ; thud even the churchcsdo not dis dain his aid throudht the medium of th journal which he controls. Under these circumstances, it is not to be wondered at that then in other vocations yearn for a chance to occupy the editorial chair, and yearning, snake personal sacrifices to sit therein. Of our Own l:mr.wledee we know many Men who were successful in other pursuits from which they deriv- ed good livings who, caughtt with the craze of wishing to control a journal and be in a position to make public their "burning" ideas, have relinquished their substance and grasped at what proved to be a shadow. And this thing Sill continue to be until the erroneous opin- ions which are held concerning the pre! fits of the newspajter business, from a pecuniary% statldpuint,are dissipated, anti until the equally erroneous view that no training is ueeessary to made any edu- cated man a newspaper editor is dispell- ed: Training is necessary to enable even intelligent men to cut axe -helves,, to make horseshoes. ei mend boots W carry on the Mercantile. trade, to "teach the young idea how to shoot,' to give legal opiuiens at so much a sen tence, and to legench,in the pulpit ; and why shielbl it * * nsidered unnecessary in editing a newspaper ? Seulela,dy has said ",lournelists are ll•,rn not made, - but no man ever became a successful newspaper morn without first receiving a thorough teniningl and the names of Greeley, Bennett.
