Its mistakes of fact orinduction are honest and palpable ones, easily corrected bycontemporaneous data or subsequent discoveries, and not often postedinto the ledger of history without detection. The learned and patientlabors of the savant or the scholar are not expected of the pamphleteeror the periodical writer of the last century, or of the present; hedoes but blaze the pathway of the pains-taking engineer who is tofollow him, happy enough, if he succeed in satisfying immediate anddaily dema...nds, and in capturing the kind of game spoken of by Mr. Popein that part of his manual where he instructs us to "shoot folly as it flies, And catch the manners living as they rise. " Among us, however, the magazine-writer, as he existed in the lastcentury, has left few, if any, representatives. He is fadingsilently away into a forgotten antiquity; his works are noton the publishers' counters, --they linger only among the dust andcobwebs of old libraries, listlessly thumbed by the exploring reader oroccasionally consulted by the curious antiquary.
