WHAT EDITORS LIKE.

By Editor

AMONG other things, they like the spirit that is sometimes manifested by correspondents, of which we herewith present two specimens:—

One correspondent writes: “I have been feeling ‘quite a burden,’ of late, for your ‘waste basket,’ and thinking it might be the duty of almost every minister to contribute something for its sustenance, I inclose an article.” And he adds that if we see fit to make any other disposition of the article, and thus “rob the poor waste basket of its prize,” it will please him to have it trimmed and pruned, to any extent that may seem desirable.

Another writes: “You cannot do me a greater favor than to put any objectionable article of mine into the waste basket. I will then pick flint and try again.”

Between editors and such correspondents, peace and good-will are very likely to continue.
