ioi (M uOre«a \V»y> '- AH ERROR AM OXO WRITES S. i It is a truth, beyond doubt, that urrt- ! j tors, now a-days, who wield the pen for j the e/e of the literary public, are too ' apt to take up subjects that Iirtc tie- i com* trite from frequent usage, or subjects Uiat have a relation— though distant it may be— to their individual sxpe- 1 rience. Because many men have similar passions, opinions, convictions and mis-giving*, it is pO reason why writers •booh! eternally be harping upon topics that have worn thread-bare. It is the duty of different writers to discos* dif- • • ferent questions, advance different idea* and reveal different thoughts, in order to touch the weak points, enlighten the ; minds, and attract the admiring attenj lion of different individual*. We must j write for the benefit of all classes of hu I inanity — the young nod old, the exalted j and humble, the rich and poor, the gid jdy nud sedate, the happy and disronsoi late, the christian and non-professor.— jTdjfo this to advantage, the intellect ! mailt be more thoroughly and thoughtj folly exerted than if one was speaking 1 ! upon- a favorite or self-inUrosted theine I —a theme which finds u place in almost ' every periodical. It should not be exexpected that, from every subject we* lake up an article will flow, as it were, by the ready hand of Inspiration, or that ull person's fefelfngk anil thoughts are 1 similar to oaf own. If we huvc the proper aitu in view — namely : the Instruction and good of the reader — we 1 sbull be ready and willing to employ ' time and tax lift powers of our miud, to 8 become fht attlkfrr of a production that S ! will apply to, or interest others than j ourselves.

I do not belftve. Mr. Editor, that I am alone in thinking that there is too * much monotony in the literature of the present age.' for in our leading .literary publication* we lite frequently informed that a certain article will not lie publish- v cd oo tcqonut.of it* being "a worn out - 1 i subject " i J.
