The Craze for Names.

With the most part of Thackeray's
early work there was no choice OF sign
ing his name. In those days neither
editors nor the public had that unreason-
ing craze for names which apparently
possesses them to-day. Words, words,
words" said Hamlet when asked what
he was reading; "names, names, names,
Names" he might answer to-day. For
really, to-day, at any rate with our peri
odical literature, whether it is to be call
cd journalism or not, there seems not
only to be much virtue in name, but
every virtue. by journalism one gener-
ally understands the current literature
of the daily papers, and the idea of lift
ing the veil of secrecy-already thin
enough in all conscience-which sur
rounds the workers in this busy and im-
portant field, is to us, we frankly own,
an appalling one. Such custom would
not only, it seems TO us, cruelty hamper
the workman's hands, but would also
open a terribly wide door to those sweet
influences, so dangerous to meet, SO
hard to resist, which are ever on the
watch to guide the bolts of Jove. Some
rude men of the baser sort there have
been To assert that this door is even now
not kept so judiciously shut as it should
be; but this is. of course a libel. Paris,
however, can furnish some idea of the
result of throwing open the shrines Of
journalism to the profane crowd. There
the papers, some of them at least, bristlt
with names; there certainly publicit,
does not always impose that check OF
rash and inconvcnient writing which it
votaries claim for its prime virtue; while
there. unless truth in her passage Owe
| the channel suffers Il sea change indeed
those sweet Influences we spoke of ar,
most undisguisediy rampant. -Macn'il
