An editor, poor fellow, next down [jj
to a humble correspondent, is easy
prey to some bragging fellow who 1 Im
wishes some free advertising about m
his prowess in his particular busi-! tsj
ness. Why a man, who has really ' ?
done nothing of note, can blow off;
before an editor, and have his progressiveness,
his great abilities, told-j
! of; of his lands and crops for in-1
stance, (and the Editor ought to j
say, "as he tells me,") and thej
people who know smile. Watch,
some of those fellows who unbosom
themselves to an editor for the pur-'
pose of l>eing lifted before the pub-1
I lie, and see if they are not about on
a level with the average, or are not
improving the country to any extent.
A mere brag, blow, and bluster.

There has been a siege of bad I
damp weather in this section, and !
the consequence is much foul crops. t
No one hut those who had good |
forces of hands and animals, have i
