Some Literary Criticism and
EdPas Of Education.

That impulsive passionate, contra
dictory being, Walter Savage Landor,
had in the Rev Walter Birch friend
who was as unlike himself as possible.
Landor told Forster that at school Birch
was nicknamed "Sancty" from the
sobriety of his manners. How diff
ferent from minei' added the fiery
writer It was probably their very un-
likeness joined to their one point OF
sympathy, a love for literature, that pre-
served their affection all through school
and college days and to the end Of the
quiet clergyman's life The good man
was not too quiet, however. to have
sense of humor. as we may see in
reminscence Of Robert Landor's. Birch

brother should have met accidentally in
an evenings walk SO many ladies, every
one Of whom was incomparably the most
beautiful creature he had ever seen?
How each OF twenty fools could be by
much the greatest fool upon earth? And,
above all how Mr. Pitt could be the
greatest rascal living if Mr. Canning
surpassed Mr.. Pitt and Lord Castle
reagh surpassed Mr.. Canning. and all
three were infinitely exceeded as brutes
and fools by their gracious sovereign
King George III?" In the heretofore
unpublished letters addressed by Walter
Savage Landor to Birch and given to
the public in the current number of THE
Fortnightly Review may he seen that
same habit of exaggeration sometimes
couically and sometimes exasperatingly
displayed
