Original and Selected Matter

By Editor

As a general thing the readers of a paper prefer original to selected matter. And doubtless the readers of this paper wish that there was good original matter to take the place of many of its selections. We join with them in the wish. But still selections may be good; and a sharp piece, even though it is a selection, we think is better than a flat one, though it may claim the merit of being original. The selections of this number we trust will be found worthy a perusal.
