Somewhere we have read, that there are two ways of treating mistakes.
One way is to let them alone making no attempts to correct them or learn any thing from them. The other is, to study carefully and learn the secret of them that they may not he made again. The latter way is the one we propose to adopt as student-editor pro tem of this Journal.
As in the best regulated families errors are made, it is hardly probable that the management of a periodical taking a stand against the prejudices of the ages will carry itself invariably wisely.
With all lapses from Wisdom's ways fellow students and readers are urged to be lenient and invited to suggest emendations.
"The shady nooks and corners
Wherein we dwell with God.
And conquer pain and weakness.
Sustained by staff and rod;
Perhaps in all earth's journey
Naught sweeter shall we know
Than just the sanctuaries,
Where hidden graces grow."
