AMERICAN JOURNALISTS ON TEE JUBILEE.
Some slight consternation prevails among the American journalists who went over to Lond m, says " Da«ooet," to do the Jubilee, and who have settled m London for the season. The accounts of the Westminster Abbey ceremony, which they sent across tbe Atlantic', were some of them couched m free and easy traneatlantic language, and many of thorn turned the American humorous tap on full m describing the royalties. Now they discover that a gentleman ia the Lord Chamberlain's office is collecting every account written by the journalists to whom tickets were issued, and is going to bind iho Press oxtracte up into albumsone to ba presented to the Queen, and one to the Lord Chamberlain, My American confreres, who have done especially smart accounts, are wondering how many more tickets will be sent to them for state functions, reviews, etc., when tbe solemn Lord Chamberlain goes over that album, and fails to appreciate the " American humor" of some of the remarks on tbe grand ceremonial, and the august persons who assisted at it.
