HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Expositor, 1869-05-28, Page 8A , The Mystery of Editing. Beecher says that the world at large _do not. understand .the mysteries of a newspapg ; and, as in a, watch, the hauds that are seen are but passive in- struments of the spring, W-hich we neves,. see. ; so in a newspnper, the most worthy causes 6 -of its prosperity- are-iift.en least observed or knowla. Who suspects the benefit which the paper &rives • from the enterprise, the vigilance and, the watchful - fidelity of the publisher I Who pauses to think how much of the .pleasure of leading is derived from the skill and care of the printer We feel the blemishes &printing, if they exist, but Seldom observe the e.xcellencies. We eat a hearty dinner, but do not think of the faaraer who raised the matE\rial thereof, Of the cook that pre- pares them -with infinite pains and skill.' But a cook of .1-egetab1es, meat and pastry, and'indefinite bonbons, has a paradisiacal office in comparisOu with an editor. --Betore him pass all the ex- change newspapers. 'He is to know all their contents, to mark for other eyes the matter that reinires attention. His scissors are to be ftlerc, and clip with incessant industry all the little items that form together. so large an in- terest in the news departmentHe passes in review each week: every State in the Union through the news- papers' lens. He looks across the ocean and seg., strange lands, and fol- lowing the su* he searches all around the world far material, It will require but one second for the reader to take in -what two hours search produced. By hin are read the manuscripis that swarnt the office like flies in July. It is his frown that dooms him. It is his hand that condenses a whole page into a line. It is his discreet sternness that restricts sentimental obituaries, *that gives poets 'a twig on which' to set and sing their first lava. And the power behind the throne, in newspapers as in. higher, is some- times as impertant as the throne itself.. Correspondents„occasional or regular, stand in awe at tilt; silent power which has the •last glance at thearticle, and forth in glory ori humili- ty,: And, in short, as the_ body Idepends upon.a good digestion, °so tie health' of a newspaper depends upbn- that vigorous digestion which goe on by means of the editor. Ought they not, to be honored 7 And since -little fame attends th in they should at least have their creat re com- forts multiplied. _ From the d. rke.and length dismal 'den -residence they are translated. The Cuban Situation • Nobody seems really to know any thing about Cuba. But . the s tuation is now said to be this : the pat oits are , shut up in the mountain.s will . few weapons and scant opmunationatn dwith no food but cattle, ankthey are put off ,from 'vegetables, . salt, and other neces- saries,. Their number can not very aeCurately be ascertamed. The Span- iards. are disciplined soldiers, -well equi- pped, numbering about twenty -thousand eff3ctive men. The hope.of the Span- iards is to starve out the revolution.; the hope of tbe Cubans is the hot weath- er, the yellow-fever,an&sympathy and assistance from the United -States. The Spanish party in the island, -it may not generally be understood; is really composed of native Spaniards. They come to the colony from , Spain and engage in various industries with the intention Of returning.. . They are what would be called in Euroi;e- the .shorskeepine• class. There is-naiurally no love lost e' between the - two. The Spaniards are the volunteers,- of . whose ferocious feelmg so much halibee said, and who fiercly enjoy maintaini g the. eulkeof their nation over the dis ainfnl Cubans. The slaves are undouJbedly. in sympathy with the revolution as its success promises them freedom, The Cubans are also reported -t . have held a Congress. receatly at . Sibaneu and to haveorganized . a civil Govern- ment, with CESPEDES at the head and QUESADA. as C4eneral-in-ehief. Wheth- er the people were really represented or whether the Congress was a mere form by which these, leaders invested their position withlang air of . popular auth- ority, does not clearly appear and is of no.praetical importance, as they are un- dou. btexily recognized. as chiefs by the r-evolutionary.party.—Harpe2•8 Weekly.
