duction of heavy editorials. In those days,
the great achievement OF the country editor
was the leader. That 10 most cases political,
generally solemn, almost necessarily prosy,
intended to be oracular, and above all and
under all circumstances lengthy essay-that
psinfulliterary production expressive of the
editors or the papers opinion upon some
subject of national, or at least statewide i'm

tiousness was empted in, and the paper that
opened up its editorial page with a leader
less than a column in length, of matter orig
inal in form, though every idea in it might
have been previously rolled over the faces of
the long primer type of half continent, had
to take low rank in contrast with lis con-
temporaries distinguished for their able edi-
torials.
But nobody cares to read leaders any more,
and the editors who still evolve them from
their mighty intellects are much more likely
to be considered old boras than able writers.
The leader belongs to the pre- telegraphic Pc
riod of newspaper development, and may be
left to be unearthed by the antiquarian of
the future along with the slow coach and
weekly mail of our fathers.
The leader died of electricity-it was
struck by lightning-and from its grave has
sprung the news or editorial paragraph, the
brightest development Of the most practical
though of modern journalism.
Another marked characteristic of the jour
nalism of to-day is its humor. Solennity
no longer passes for wisdom, at least be
tween the column rules. and humor, and
even wit, are no more frequent around the
social table where good fellows meet, than in
our best papers. Twain, Burdette, Mast,
Nasty. Billings, Lewis, Bailey and Peck, are
representatives of a phase of journalism
which would have shocked the heavy editors
of half century ago, but has cheered the
hearts and made happier the lives of thou
sands of readers of the present, and has
changed the newspaper from pedantic
meteor to friend and companion whose
coming is looked for and welcomed rs is the
visit of friend, and whose perusal is en-
loved as the cheerful chat of a companion.
1t is ours, the local papers, that can be
made to most nearly fill this familiar relation
of friend and companion to their readers.

THE VACCINATION QUESTION.
The Prospect Of its Being Taken Up
by the New British Parliament.

lGloucester Citzen.l
Speaking few days since, Mr.. VIM.
Tebb, who is we'll known as an opponent
of the Vaccination acts, said that anti
yaccinators asked with some anxiety,
sWhat will the new Parliament do for
use' They knew that hundreds of pe-
titions were sent to the Tory Parliament
by parents who had seen the injury
caused by vaccination, and those petit
tions had fallen on the government like
shower of waste paper. He thought the
new Parliament would do something for
them. It had been especially elected to
carry out reforms demanded by the people
and there was no reform so imperative
as to reform the Vaccination acts out OF
existence. Hear; hear, and a voice:
"Pure blood foreyer"] Mr.. Gladstone,
in a letter to Mr.. Pitman on the subject,
said: ~ regard all compulsory legisla-
tion like that Of vaccination with mis-
trust and misgiving." Hear, hear. In
his (the speakers own borough of Mary
Iebone Mr.. Gladstone, in recent
speech, had expressed his sympathy with
the anti-yaccination, movement, and he
took such expressions as an earnest Of
4 what he would do. Hear, hear. He
thought Mr.. w. E. Forster had made
some progress within the last few years
in this Question as in the debate
on Mr. Pease's bill he, most earn
estly sought, the Government to re
Ipeai the cumulative penalties. Then
with regard to Mr.. John Bright, what
| did that gentleman say? He said "the
| law which Furnishes parents again anc
lagain for non-yaccination is 'monstrous
and ought to be repealed" Hear

THAT APPROPRIATION.

The telegraph announced on Friday
last that Messrs. Butterworth and Young
have succeeded in securing a recommen-
dation from the proper Committee for
the appropriation by Congress of $780,
900 for prosecuting to completion the
work on our new Custom-house and Post
Office Building in Cincinnati. Should
that august body make tho appropria-
ton demanded, of which we are by no
means as yet certain, it will have per
formed one wise thing amid much fool
ishness. This great unfinished structure
has for months stood monument
of folly in leaving so long unfinished a
building for which there is such crying
public need and which moreover must
sometime be completed whether it cost
little or much. If the revenues Of the
Government were inadequate to the pub
lie demands the case might present some
show of excuse. But not SO; the report of
the Treasury Department for the
past month shows an excess
of income over the legitimate
current requirements Of the Government
of some $12,0OO,0O0. 1t is now six and
possibly eight months since the huge der
ricks surrounding the ghostly, window
less and roofess structure on the Fifth
street market space have ceased to ope
rate. Meanwhile the Post-office, Custom
house and United States Court business
transacted in the little Greek Temple al

will be granted and the structure fortl
