HIGHER JOURNALISM.

It is pleasing for tine writer to note among the prominent news paper men of the country who have chosen the profession as a life time labor, a general tendency to elevate the profession of their choice. The pulpit, school room and bar, three great kindred pro- fessions, neither of which in the slightest rank above journalism,
 demand and require thorough examination, high mental and moral qualifications, before a can didate is allowed to enter these professions. Then since this IS the case, and since true and wor- thy newspaper editor occupies the triune position of preacher, teach CT and counselor, it would be but a just, proper and needful protect ion to this, the greatest and grand est of all professions, to require every member to be licentiate of good moral character and above the ordinary, in intellectual quail ificatlons.
