The editor of the- Berlin Volks Zeitung has just received

the honour of a public dinner on occasion of the last of a series of 5,000 " leaders" which he has written for that journal on 5,000 successive days, a feat which appears to be considered at least equal to walking 1,000 miles in 1,000 hours. Let us hope that when at last Herr Bernstein rests from his labours his works won't follow him. Five thousand " leaders" leading perhaps to Schleswig-Holstein, or, as Mr. Carlyle would say,, " no-whither," must be a heavy burden on the conscience even of a German.
