YANKEE JOURNALISTS ON THE JUBILEE.
Some alight consternation prevails among the American journalists who went ov-r to London, says Dagonet, to do the Jubilee, and who have settled in Loudon for the f-e son. The accounts of the Westminster Abbey ceremony which they sent across the Atlantic wero some of them couched in free and easy transatlantic language, and many of them turned the American humorous tap nn hill in describing the royalties. Now they discover that a gentleman in the L rd office is collecting every account written by the journalists to wheat tickets were issued, and is going to bind the Press extracts up into two albums one to be presented to the Q ieec, and one to the Lord Ohamberlain. My American confreres, who have dona especially “smart ” accounts, are wondering how many more tickets will be sent to them for state functions, reviews, <fcc., when the solemn Lord - Chamberlain, goes Mver that album, and fails to appreciate the “ American humor” of some of the remarks on the grand ceremonial, and the august pers ns who assisted at it.
