MAHONY, FRANCIS, Journalist and Author, one of the Editors of " The Globe, " born in Ireland about 1805, left it very young for Jesuit Colleges in France and the University of Rome. Returning in clerical orders from Italy, a short experience of their Irish exercise seems to have decided him to resume literature as his element. Uniting in an eminent degree ripe scholarship, wit, a ready pen, and a racy style, he was, under the nom de plume of " Father Prout, " gladly enrolled amongst the band of... able men who some years ago in the hey-day of Dr. Maginn made " Fraser's Magazine " one of the most remarkable publica- tions of that clay. He spent some years in travel through Hungary, Asia Minor, Greece, and Egypt, and has written several books ; but his chief literaiy labours have been devoted to, and his chief influence has been exerted in, the columns of newspapers. He originated the Roman correspondence of the u Daily News, " contributing to the columns of that journal a series of articles full of good feeling, sparkling wit, and zeal for the cause of Italy, in the advocacy of which he has not spared anointed wrong-doers.
