Tile spirit which has crept into the city press.of our country,of English importa. tion, of dilat ing and dwelling upon the innior alities consequent to promiscuous population, tt receives no support from the country press, s and why, may be asked,-hecause in the sim. p'city of our lives we hale no occasional pic. cadd'voes to enlarge on, orany petty scandals to promulgate. A country newspaper prop.- s orly should keep an argus, eye to passing e evente, altho' this age of steam and telegraph has acted almost inurderously tothem; the if - C habitants of Sumter have an interest in the b alairs, political and social, of any of the sis ter States of the Union. and are they to re. e, :ain in ignorance of the momentous transac- P tions, which are constantly shaking the an. 0 cient world 1 or are they to depend solely up- r oi the blanket--sheeted press. It has al. n vays been conceived that the presence of a press in a community has a tendecy to ele votq it and his not that community an in terest to support that press. Who is to re dress their wrongs, fight their battles, and in struct and amuse them, save their own press. a The individual opinions of an editor have, s and are entitled to a great weight and influence on the public mind, and a highly arduous du ty is his reponsiblity, like no other man, indi- % vidually to each of his subscribers, for his I opinions, bound, in good faith to his p-ttrons to advance the cause of law and order, reli gion and its attributes, he is an ackrowledged public censor, his onerous duties force him to endeavor to please old ani young, tle gay and the serious, 'he dellcianti and the plain mav, whoye education has been obtained in his rough passage through the world; lie has to write something w hether there remans an idea in his alm:ost exhauEted brain, and many an editor of a country paf er has the iechan- e ical departroent attached to his liter-ary di ties. With, all this combination of evils the C country press is the sole credit and g!ory of the combined press of the Union. IL repre sents the greatest talent and ability, the most untiring energy and the most laudable efforts in the advancement of civilizition. There is no real labor in conducting a daily city press in comparison to a country one, it has greater fucilities, and greater resiources, and withal ca nnot do without thocountry res.
