Correspondence Of the In!el!ioenctr.
About the most foreign institution the
American visitor finds in England is the
English daily newspaper. It differs from
the typical American in almost every par
ticular. The first familiar things you miss
are the display Of headlines. From these
in your own country you have beenable at
q glance to inform youraelf OF the
ssliant points Of the days intelligence.
In England you can be sure that you know
all only when you have waded carefully
through the whole paper. The mex. thing
that strikes you strangely is the preponder-
ance OF mere opinions over news. The
occurrences Of the day before are related,
fol tho mos. part, in the boldest manner.
There il no straining after effect in those
recitals and but little attention to details.
When, however, you turn to the editorial
page you find an exhibition OF enterprise
and talent that is amazing. There will be
probably FIVE articles, each occupying
about q column, come, perhaps, divided
into not more than q couple OF paragraphs,
and ali written in the Iabored and orsnG:
ielcouent style OF che most pondero,,s re.
yieyu, No economy Of space in his de-
uartment and no sfTectation of modesIr.
but the news item for which you are lock.
ing you will find, after disheartenins
search, hiding itself away in some corner
like a bash!ul spring flower undera heap OF
dead leaves. 10 use another simile, the
mon,rosity in this respect az would be a
human being Yhose head WAS bigger than
his body, 90 -"
