The OLD NEwspAPER.-An instruc-
tive lesson may be drawn from the
columns of the old newspapers. You
meet with names that seem once to have
been on every tongue, but now are
never mentioned; authors of new books,
which the reviewer confidently handed
down to the admiration OF all ages, but
which somehow have failed to reach our
age; popular preachers, whose sermons
have sent no echo to our ears; politi.
CLANS, who fill whole columns OF the
paper. but have long since retired to an
undiec overed privacy; swarms Of dukes,
princes. generals ard captains, who
played prominent parts in the tragedies
or farces in those days, but Of whom We
are totally ignorant until we saw the old
newspaper. What "a severe critic is
timel With what ruthless hand he
blots out the praises Of other Journalists!
How quietly he shuts down his e1tin-
guisher upon the lights that the world
said would never go ont!
