The Germ OF Modern JournaIism.

The Germ OF Modern journalism.
The luxuriant growth of American
journalism in its present brilliant de
velopment may be traced to its primitive
root in the British press of two hundred
years ago.
AT that time, nothing resembling the
modern newspaper existed, or could
have existed, and it is not even prob,
able that any human imagination had
as yet conceived so complex a product
as the journal of the present day.
Governments, even the most tyrannic
and oppressive, had been readily brought
to recognize the expediency of some
ready and popular form of commune
cation with the masses of the people, and
this had been found in the-Gazette.
The soyereigns of China, Venice, and
England were equally willing, and for
the same reason, to print, for public
distribution carefully prepared state
ments of laws ordained, victories a.

as were deemed consonant with the

The German Countess.

One thing which caused me much perplex-
ity was the effort l was constantly making
to reconcile the de fdcto German countess
with that naughty creature whs, wearing q
coronet Of diamonds on her lofty brow, trails
her velvet robes through her ancestral halls,
on the stage and in Marlitt's novels. The
ancestral halls are certainly there, and the
coronet, in some form or other, is omni-
present. One sees it carved upon the fur
nIture. engraved upon the plate, embroidered
upon every conceivable article from hand

To continue Judge in Office means
that he shall continue to discharge its
duties. The language Sin the circuits
in which they reside" means the circuits
in which they were elected in 1872, and
in which they were required to reside
by the Constitution OF 1872. 1t does
not mean the new circuits established by
the amendment OF 1850, because there
are thirteen new circuits, and by the
construction you give there would be
circuits without Judges until January
LIST next, ior you cannot fill thirteen
circuits with nine Judges. And surely
the Constitution never intended an i'm
possibility. In a word, the Constitution
OF 1872, requiring Circuit Judge to re-
side in the circuits OF which he is Judge.
makes it to my mind plain that ~ odges,
"circuits" and "reside," words used in
said Tenth Section, refer to'old Judges,
old circuits and residence as OF the time
of their election in 1872, and that the old
Judges have the right to hold their
courts in the old circuits until the LIST OF
January as though the amendment had
