Mrs. HARRIET BEECHER SrowG seems to

itor and of what is exacted of him in these
progressive times As she says, there is Il
sort of omniscienco expected of him. He
must be posted in everything; must know
enough of politics, art, science, religion, agri-
culture, and general literature. to write in
diligently upon either at short notice. lie
must know MS much about what Congress is
doing as the Journal clerks Of the House
and Senate, and he must DO able to tell Con-
gress what it ought to do and
what it ought not TO do. Finance and
the tariff must DO at his finger ends. The
current events of tho universe must be famil-
lar to him. And then, from the bushels and
bushels of articles written by men and wo-
men and sent to him with tho kind intima-
ton that he may publish or throw in the
waste basket, he must know
how to select so rs to satisfy the tastes and
demands of the reading public. He must be
patient, too, and selfsacriiicing and wait for
that appreciation of his efforts which rarely
ever comes until he has gone to his reward in
the summer land, where spring poets and po-
etesses cannot worry his soul with forced
rhymes in doubtful measure or the blsnkest
kind of verse;
