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. W re
gret. to witness these efourts to I .'me tihe
most useful branch of the pro:ession. there is,
n the iannguage of Uncle Tour,"room eouuwi
in the world for you and ie," you, having I
the advantage of a daily isste, it is true, in.
terest a few residents of the interior, but you I
cater not for the masses, that is left for us -
One beneficial result is to be attributed .to f
these endeavors of mie d:aily presp, that is,
the- country press havo seized the path or
