Excerpt from My Private Note-Book, or Recollections of an Old Reporter The duties of the Reporter are easily defined. His chief care, if he belongs to the dismounted, is to collect full particulars of the striking incidents of the day, and to present them -in such a form as will en sure common insertion in the morning journals, and a sufficient pecuniary return to himself.
