Hou nc .EdItor- ws. Made.

The normal process Of the evolution
of editors was simply the gradual dele
cation Of powers by the printer or book
habitant of Grub street as drudge, and
when the work became too complex and
delicate had handed over the duties to
men of special literary training. Two
very important periodicals, however, Of
this period show a certain reversion TO
the olden type. The Edinburgh Review
owed part Of its success to its independ-
ence of publishers. 1t was started not
by a speculator who might wish to puff
his own wares, but by little knot Of
audaciors youths who combined as Steele
and Addison combined in The Specta-
tor. 1t seems that at first they scarcely
even contemplated the necessity Of an
editor, and Sydney Smith was less ed
itor than president Of the little COM
mittee of authors at the start
When Jeffrey took up the duty he
was careful to make il understood that
his work was TO be strictly subordinate
to his professional laborS. and he had no
inkling that his fame would come 70
depend upon his editorship The Edin-
burgh. however, soon became a review
Of the normal kind. Cobbett, ON the
other hand, started his Political Register
as kind Of rival to The Annual Regis
ter. 1t was to be mainly IA collection Of
state papers and official documents. but
it soon changed in his hands into the
likeness Of Defoe's old Review. II be-
came a personal manifesto ol Cobbett
himself, and as such held most impor-
tant place in the journalism OF the time.
But CObbett was, and in some ways re-
mains, unique, and, as the newspapers
has developed, the I'VE" has superseded

Peel and wellington.

Dean Boyle in his "Reminiscences"
tells q striking anecdote Of the mutual
appreciation of the same quality Of high
sincerity in public life Of the famous
statesman, Sir Robert Peel. and the
Iron Duke" Of Wellington.
Mr.. Wood, a friend Of Dean BOyle's,
had at one time, when the Duke Of
Wellington was very i'll in London.
come from the city TO a country house
at which Peel was visiting. As soon as
he arrived, Sir Robert called him aside
and asked with intense anxiety what
WINS the latest news of the dnke's cOndi-
ton. 1t was considered hopeless, and
Mr.. Wood told him so. Tho great min
lister broke down utterly, crying out
with a burst of tears:
HE is ne truest man / have ever
known"
The duke, however, recovered despite
the predictions Of his doctors, ard sur
vived Peel
The same gentleman-Mr. WoOd-by
q curious coincidence was present when
Peel was thrown from his horse and re-
ceiyed the injuries which resulted in his
death. He hastened to his assistance,
procured carriage and accom-, Iniod
him home. remaining for some time in
the house to render the family what
| services he might in their time Of con-
fusion and distress. He was yet there
when the Duke of Wellington arrived
to make inquiries, and was deputed by
Lady Peel to receive him He hastened
to the door and found the duke ON the
step about to enter the house, and in-
/ formed him that the physician pro-
nounced Sir Roberts hurt TO be desper-
ate, and his chance Of life almost moth
ing.
He was the soul Of truth" said the
old soldier huskily, and turning alb
/ ruptly from the threshold he mounted
his horse and rode sorrowfulIy away.
