EDITTSG A PAPBR.-Edi ting a paper is a very pleasant business. If it contains too much political matter, people won't have it. If the type is too large, it don't contain enough reading matter. It the type is small, p3ople won't read it. If we publish telegraph reports, people say they are lies. Il we omit them, Ihey say ve have no enterprise, or suppress them for political effect. If we have in a few jokes, people say we are rattle head. If we omit them, they say we are old fossil. If we publish origi nal matter, them damn us for not giviug selections. If we publish se? lections, men say we are lazy for not writing more and giving them what they have not read in some other paper. If we give a man a compli? mentary notice, then we are censured for being partial. If wo do not, all hands say we are a greedy hog. If ?we insert an article that pleases the ladies, men become jealous. If we do not cater to their wishes, the paper is not fit to have in the house. If we attend church, they say it is j only for effect. If we don't, they de? nounce us as deceitful and desperate? ly wicked. If we remain in the office and attend to our business, folks are apt to say we are too proud to mingle with our "fellows. If we go out, they say we never attend to business. If we publish poetry, we affect senti? mentalism. If we do not, we have no literary poliah or taste. We recommend the above to the se- j rious consideration of our readers, with our endorsement to the effect, that the easiest way for an individual I to make euemies and lose friends, is | for him to edit a paper. Said a merchant: "What cfo the Fenians expect to do with Canada, should they take it?" "Well," said a Yankee, after a little hesitation, "I don't exactly know, but it is reported that they are going to give it to the United States for tao ?iron-dads and a rawi!"

ERS, advise you of tho fact that Charleston is again a market for the pur? chase of goods; and in view of the early opening of the Spring Trade, we beg to solicit the resumption pf the patronage so liberally extended to this market in thc past. VVe arc aware that many old and respected firms will be missed "from our number, but many familiar names will bo found in new associations, ready to supply the wants of the trade as of yore, and other old itnd new linns will be added to out? number at an early day. The cash and short credit system having been universally adopted in all thc North? ern mfl-rkota we aro n'ice*jaorilv compelled to adopt a like system as the only safe one on which to conduct business, and thc heavv per centago once necessary to cover bad debts will now be avoided. ?Small pro? fits and quick returns will be the rule, and under its working re hope not only to' restore to our ancient city its former pros? perity, but to extend her trade to the full extent of tho capabilities her excellent geographical position and natural advan? tages afford. Our interest and ambition combine to stimulate tts in attaining this result. The South Carolina Railroad is now open to Columbia, and its President has officially informed us that the Augusta line will be completed to blackville this month, and that on the first of February he will receive through freight to Augusta. A lino of steamers to Savannah will afford facilities for shipping in that direction. It is our purpose to have in store, by thc last of February, a complete and varied assort? ment of goods in our respective lines adapted to the Spring Tra rfc, and every exertion shall be made to promote your interests. Wo extend to you the hand of commer? cial fellowship, and solicit your co-opera? tion and patronage in our efforts to make Charleston the centre of Southern trade. Give us the encouragement we ask, anti von will enjoy all the advantages of a cheap home market. Dry Goods. W. T. Burge A Co. Edwin Bates A Co. J. R. Read & Co. Strauss. Vance A Co.
