CREATION "A statement. in Il c
London Athen@um, going the rounds
Of the papers, FIXES the authorship Of
this famous work upon Mr.. Rrobert
Chambers. One Mr.. Page. a writer
for Chambers Edinburg Journal, once
remarked in presence of the supposed
author that If he had seen the sheets
before going to press he could have
prevented some Of the plumbers which
made 1t subject to severe criticism.
The consequence Of this remark was,
that Mr.. Robert Chambers sent him
the proof sheets Of the second or
third edition Of 'he "Vestiges' with
the request that he would enter on
the imaginary corrections or suggeges4
tons that occurred Mr. Page makes
these disclosures TOW that" if merit
is attachable to The work, the author
will reap bis high reward--if denerit,
the blame will at least fall Oh the high
shoulders. y
