Sensations of an Editor.
The setsations of an editor on first
ganncinge over his paper and dete.oting
errors in it are somewhat different
from tho'.e experienced by the reader
foli ma11k ing like discoveries. The lat
ier is either amused at the blunder
or injoeinsed at he carelessness which
iaIu.es it, and ill both Cases arrives at
the ,oticlumivii that tlie trouble is
iivoidabie, and that the editor is to
bl.,me for not avoiding it. He neve
taw un editor take his firet glance over
a copy of cte edition. Perhaps the
edition is worked off when this op
iportunity is afforded the weary man.

at a time. t
'he dealer shufltes and makes up
the pack hi mself, or it may be done
by ohe player at his left, and the
player at his right must out.
To begin the pool the player next
to the dealer on his left must put up
woney, whlh is called an "anto,"
and thou, in succession, each player
passing around to the left, Imu"t, af.
ter looking at his hand, determine if
he goes in or not; and each person
deciding to play for the pool must
put in twice the amount of the ante.
Those who decline to play throw up
their c.rds, face downward, on th.s
table, anid, per cousequenco, in flont
of the next dealer.
When all who wish to play have
gone in, the perton putting up the
anuto can either give up all interest in
the pool, thus forfeiting the ante
which has bseu put up, or else can
play like the others who have gone in

with a small pair and draw but one t
card, thus taking .the chances of 1
matching the highi cards,.saud so get. -

When the spring IMrds begin to
twittei- in the .gr'ves, tI the f rogs
'o eroak in the s.wamUps, the Southern
jourtials coinicice the .sue old
song, "Plant less cotton." This ad
vice has been .given for tbe last thirty
ye;rs, and it haH recetitly mado its
appearanoe with the ucoustomed
iegularity. In all the Southern
States the inewspapers are united in
urging upon the farmer to plant lss
cotton, and more CoIn and oats, the
coning spring. Tfhcy show from the
statistica that at prosent prices it
does not pay to raise cotton, and it
is fly to sucritice everything for
cotton, a.has been the custom. for
years. There can be no question
that tho best interests of South
would be materially improved if tL-e
farming community would give- more
attoution t, the raising of the neoes
saryarticles.. of food required for
itoe ooitiumption and less to the
specialty of cotton. Cotton is now
(luuted about its low in Liverpool as
at any time since the war. Tiis in.
formation should certainly - induce
farmers to plant morecorn and raise
all their other Supplies. Indeed,
with cotton below the cont of pro.
duction, farmers will be compolled
to raise their own hupplies. But
this never would be done if cotton
remained at eighteen amid twenty
cents, and corn and bieun even .t
tie present 111ieCs. lleretoiore. it
hs been iieless to urge this syatenx
of farming atmong planiters, but now
