Work Of Journalism.
From Forney's Anecdotes.
Many Of our public men are capital anna
tour editors. Thomas H. Benton was val
liable and vigorous contributor to the Globe,
in the war upon the United States Bank.
His style was trenchant and elevated, and
his facts generally impregnable. James
Buchanan was frequent writer in my old
paper. the Lancaster Intclhgenccr and Jour-
nal and in the Pennsylcanian. His diction
was cold and unsympathetic, but exact,
clear and condensed. His precise and ele-
CANT chirography was the delight of
the compositors. Judge Douglas wrote
little, but suggested much. His
mind teemed with ''pOints." l never
spent an hour with him which did not fur
nlsh me with new ideas. He was treasure
to an editor, because he possessed the rare
faculty of throwing new light upon every
subject in tho shortest possible time Ex-
Attorney General j. S. Black would have
made a superb journalist and was a ready
and useful contributor. His style Is terse
fresh and scholarly. What a pity to see
such gifts wasted in a strife over the grave
of former associate and friend Caleb
Cushing is another statesman who once de-
lighted in editorial writing, and still occa-
sionally varies his heavy professional toll
by the same agreeable relaxation. 1 have
known him to stand up at his tall desk and
dash off column after column on foreign and
domestic politics, on art, on finance, with
astonishing rapidity and ease.
