LITERARY CURIOSITIES.
THE following humorous lines well describe the difficulty that editors
find in pleasing the public. They are expected to know everything, and
to be able to satisfy all tastes and capacities. No imperfections can be
excused in conductors of newspapers; they are not even allowed to be
unfortunate.
THE EDITOR.
That editor who wills to please, Must humbly crawl upon his knees,
And kiss the hand that beats him; Or, if he dare attempt to walk, Must
toe the mark that others chalk, And cringe to all that meet him.
Says one, Your subjects are too grave, Too much morality you have,--
Too much about religion; Give me some witch and wizard tales Of
slip-shod ghosts with fins and scales, Of feathers like a pigeon.
I love to read, another cries, Those monstrous, fashionable lies,-- In
other words, those novels, Composed of kings and queens and lords, Of

border wars, and gothic hordes That used to live in hovels.
No, no, cries one, we've had enough Of such confounded love-sick
stuff, To craze the fair creation; Give us some recent foreign news Of
Russians, Turks, the Greeks, or Jews, Or any other nation.
The man of dull scholastic lore Would like to see a little more In scraps
of Greek or Latin; The merchants rather have the price Of southern
indigo and rice, Of India silks, or satin.
Another cries, I want more fun, A witty anecdote or pun, A rebus
