IL contains some very able articles, and among
them, one by Professor Holmes Of the Richmond

called forth FROM various intelligent quarters, warm
expressions Of admiration and approval. The ar
tcle to which we refer, Is an eXcoTiating crit.
cism Of 1.-The Wandering Jew" The Reviewer
pays tribute 10 the rare genius Of Sue, and this
IL about all he has TO say ia his favor. lie shews
up in powerful style, the corrupt infamous. de-
moralizing character Of this last emanation from
a heart and mind stepped in revolving sensuality
Although his honest Indignation may have i'm
parted an air of too much severity To his stric.
lures, yet readily overlook that in the vrtuous
motive which has prompted his criticism, and
the mastery manner IN which he lifts the gsudy
veil from the lacs Of sin, and exhibits the monster
"a all his native deiormity.
We congratulate the Richmond College upon
the valuable acquisition which it has made in the
person Of Professor Holmes. Ills extensive learn.
ing aud fine abilities would gracs n chair IN any

dy rendered 10 the cause Of literature and good
