Lord Tennyson has again recorded a
public protest against the epistolary perse-
cution from which he has suffered even
more than most eminent men. The peril
nacity of these unwelcome correspondents
Is the less excusable, as the laureate has
never made a secret OF his short and sum
mary way OF treating them. All letters
from the legion Of Lord Tennyson's unau-
thorized correspondents become dead let
ters. They not only die, but arc buried
out Of sight and out Of mind forever. The
poet himself does not open one OF the thou
sands Of such letters which the post an
nually discharges at his door, nor does lie
ever read a line Of their contents. The
documents are at once destroyed.-Chicago

It will be remembered that some
months since we advocated through
the columns Of the GAZETTE the or
g]anization Of a building association.
How far our suggestions have been
needed we + unable to say, but as
yet we are minus the building assOci-
alton. Now we wish to ask if there
is enough enterprise and public spirit
among our people to establish a labor
union, at whose headquarters any
person in need of help can find regis
tered the names of one or many relia-
bic laborers for any branch of bust
ness. This would not only be great
convenience to ii business people
who desire to secure, from time to
time, reliable and competent labor,
but it would keep employed and fur
nish work for a vast number of the
laboring classes who idle away the
greater part Of their time, and which
necessarily keeps them as poor finan-
cially as jobs turkey was physically.
We hope this proposition will be agi-
tated until the desired end has been
accomplished, and We have in our
midst a headquarters which will be
Of vital interest to every class Of our
citizens, from the Juvenile to the ven-
erabie, from the richest to the poorest.
Who will be the mar 10 take the lead
in this matter?
