author is accused, in no measured terms, of gross imitations,
read d nworthy article in
B`e.,—may I not be allowed, as a set-off against the injurious
tendency of what is a personal attack, to notice the singular
coincidence of three literary articles appearing on the same
day also, from the Courier, the Brighton Herald, and The

Sun (omitting anterior authorities), in which this charge is
anticipated and replied to. Rec

received on " Italy" from public and private testimonies. My
hope to counteract, in some measure, the personality exercised
towards me, must make, I trust, my apology for tresposing
on your columns, while I subscribe myself, Sir,
Your most obedient servant,

tages of a due cultivation of the mind. Loth have long since been
acknowledged, and the events daily passing around us bear with them
the most convincing evidence that the anxiety of all classes in England
to share the blessings of education, has been attended by the Rost
splendid results. The triumph of our mechanical powers has just been
manifested on the waves of the Atlantic, and the return of one of our
most eminent philosophers front his sojourn in the Southern Ylemisph ere,
