 \ HARD CAsE.-A case of slave sue- ing for his freedom was tried few days since il Lincoln county, of which the fol- lowing IS brief statement of the particu- lars

 4 youth of about ten years Of age sued for bis freedom on the ground, that he was free white person. The court granted his petition to sue as a pauper, upon inspec- ton of his person. Upon the 6ial before the jury he was examined by the jury and by two learned physicians, all Of whom con cured in the opinion that very liftle, Ii any, trace Of negro blood could be discovered, by any of the external appearances. All the physiological marks and distinctions which usually characterize the African de- scent, had disappeared. His skin was fair his hair soft, straight, fine and white; his eyes blue, but rather disposed 10 the hazle- nut color; nose prominent the lips small and completely covering the teeth; his head round and well formed forehead high and prominent; the ears large, the tibia Of the leg straight, the feet hollow. Notwithstand- ing these evidences of his claims, he was proven to be the descendant of q mulatto woman and that his progenitors on the mo- ther's side had been, and still were slaves consequently he was found to be slave.

 From the feeling manifested by the com munity, where the trial was had, we presume his freedom will be purchased and hi. edn- cation provided for.-.Sait Rire,' Journal.

 D,9iesslties ot Editors.-The truth is an editor cannot step without treading on some body's toes. If he express his opin- ion fearlessly and frankly, he is arrogant and presumptuous. fine state facts with out comment, he dare not avow his senti- ments. If he conscientiously refuses to advocate the claims of an individual to office, he Is accused of personal hostility. jackanapes, who measures off words as verse, as clerk does tape by the yard, hands him a parcel of stuff that ginges

 like handful of rusty nails and aiinhlet, and if the editor is not fool enough 10 print the nonsense--' stop my paper, l won't patronlze man that's no better judge of poetry As if 1t were patronage to buy paper at about half more than so much waste paper would cost. One murmurs, because his paperis too literary; another, be- cause it is not literary enough. One grum- bles, because the advertisements engross too much room; another complains that the paper IS too large, he can't find time to read il all. One wants a type so small that a microscope would be indispensable in every family another threatens to discontinue bis paper unless the letters are half all inch iong-- and an old lady offered an additional price for paper that should be printed with such type as are used for handbills.

 Every subscriber has plan of his own for conducting a journal, and the labor of Sysiphus was recreation when compared with that oi an editor who undertakes to please all.--G -Greeasboroaeh Patriot.
