The death of Mr Chenery, late «ditor of the London Times, causes the Lancet to discourse on the great" intellectual strain which is necessary in the production of newspapers, and especial yof daily newspapers. "Mr Chenery," says the writer, " had one great mental and physical advantage — his brain had been especially well .developed in youth by steady and severe labor. In spite of this, however, ho succumbed, though not till absolutely exhausted by the severity of his exertions. Few of those who enjoy a newspaper have much idea of the work and worry that are necessarily undergone in producing them. If journalists -were not devoted to their duties — if indeed they did not relish them ad other men do their dinners — the Prass would not be what it is. Since the death of Mr Cheneiy has once more called attention to the penalties which are paid by persons who are devoted in an obscure way to the service of the public, we may hope it will not be without the advantage of securing for newspaper people greater consideration than they have ever yet obtained, except in rare instances, in this as well as other countries.
