THE SUEZ MAIL.

The Roman correspondent of the Tablet -says ; : — " Garibaldi informs his friends and brethren of the approach of another crisis. Let the patriots number their ranks, organize themselves, and hold themselves in readiness. As soon as the republic *hali be proclaimed at Madrid, we intend to act throughout the peniusula, and overthrow a king whose hesitations fetter and retard the free march of the Dation. The Eepublicans, supported by the people, will only stop at the Capitol.* A young man who was about jumping from a train while in motion, was deterred by a reporter, who asked for his name, age, business, and residence, for an obituary item. •■- — y Editing a paper is very pleasant business. If it contains too much political matter, people won't have it. If >we publish telegraph reports, folks say 'they are nothing but lies. If we omit /them, they say we have no enterprise, or suppress them for political effect. If we have in a few jokes, folks say we are nothing but a rattle-head. If we don't admit jokes, they say we are an old fossil. If we publish original matters, they blame us for not giviDg selections. If we publish selections, folks say we are lazy for not writing more, and giving them what they have not read in any other paper. If we give a public man complimentary notice, we are censured for being partial. If we do not, all hands say we are an uncouth bear. If we insert an article which pleases the ladies, men become jealous. If we do not cater to their wishes, the paper is not fit to have in their house. If we attend church, they say it is only for effect. If we do not, they denounce us as deceitfully and terribly wicked. If we remain in the office and attend to business, folks say we are too proud to mingle with our fellows. If we go out, they say we never attend to business. If we do not pay our bills promptly, folks say we are not to be trusted. If we pay promptly, they say we" stole the money. — Exchange Paper,
