Excerpt from The New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal, 1821, Vol. 3: Historical Register Towards the end of 1818, and in the beginning of 1819, he examined at Naples the Herculanean manuscripts, and soon declared his Opinion, that they had not been acted upon by fire so as to be completely carbonized, but that their leaves were cc mentad together by a sub tance formed during the fermentation, and chemical change pro uced in along course of years. He in vented a composition for the dissolution of this substance, but could not discover more than from 80 to 100 out of 1265 manu scripts, which presented any probability of success. On his return to England in 1820, his respected friend, the late worthy professor of the Royal Society died. Many discus sions took place amon at the members res acting a proper suc cessor. Several individuals of high, an even very exalted rank, were named as candidates; but the scientific part of the society justly considered this honour, the highest that a scientific man can attain in Britain, not as a proper appendage to mere rank and fortune, but as a reward for scientific merit. Amongst the hilosophers whose labours have enriched the Transactions of e Royal Society, two were most generally adverted to, si!

Excerpt from The New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal, 1821, Vol. 1: Original Papers The part of his reckoning with the Public which would naturally be the most agreeable to his own selfish feelings, would undoubtedly be the mention of those congratulatory eulogies which have reached him from friends, and from unknown individuals. But the world is not to be addressed by him with self-compla cency; and his recency as an Editor makes it pro er that he should rather declare the means by Which he as endeavoured to deserve success, than that he should boast of having partially obtained it. Those means, it is true, are likely to be the very same which every other periodical publisher takes credit to himself, more or less, for having em loyed; and it is not his duty to disparage the merit o rivals and contemporaries in the same pursuit only he will not shrink from a comparison with any of them, in the pains which he has taken to solicit the assistance of able writers; in the terms which he has obtained from the Proprietors of the work, as acknowledgments to its contributors; and in the care which he has exerted, to keep the developement of moral truth and feeling free from all taint of personal animosity or invasion of private character.

Excerpt from The New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal, Vol. 1: January to June, 1821 The length of the articles has been sometimes found fault with, as obstructive to variety. Were the Editor really convinced that his papers could be compressed and multiplied with advan tage, he would immediately and zealously act on this suggestion. But he has strong grounds for believing, that no benefit could be derived from his doing se. Ah augmented variety of articles would make it necessary either that individual correspondents should write on a greater number of subjects, some of which would necessarily be foreign to their particular habits and abili ties; or that the circle of his contributors should be widely ex tended. But to a very great number of contributors, it would not be possible for the proprietors of this, or of any other work, to offer acknowledgments for their communications, at all wor thy of their acceptance. It is-a truth neither unknown nor dis honourable, that no important periodical publication can be sup ported by gratuitous contributions. And for the usefulness of the literary profession, it is of no slight consequence that its honest industry should be profitable. Ut setting aside, if they should be thought indelicate, all ideas of profit, it is still 't a sorry invitation to literary men, to tell them that, whether eir subiiect be grave or gay, they must be stinted to a very few pages, an that their sentences are to be counted on the hugers of the Editor. Sometimes, it is true, and with painful feelings, he has been obliged to abridge the contributions of his coadjutors; but, on the Whole, the system of compression could not be carried to rigour without either alienating useful writers, or requesting to contribute mere scraps and fragments. Were the public even clearly disposed to patronize the scrap - system of literature, a spirited editor would be disposed to set his face against their taste. But England has, in fact, of late shown decided symptoms of a predilection for a very different system of periodical writing.

Excerpt from The New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal, 1827, Vol. 3: Historical Register From Greece we learn that the defence of Athens is carried on with great skill and bravery. Not only had six desperate assaults been bravely repelled, but the gar rison had dug a mine of which the be siegers had no idea, on account of the na ture of the ground. They had set fire to it, and one hundred and fifty Turks had been blown into the air by the explosion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal, 1833, Vol. 3 We shall treat very brie y the delicate point of anonymous editorship we are convinced that this, too, has advantages, which its opposite can' not counterbalance. If a name is to give importance to editorial dignity, it must, of course, be one of considerable note. The individual so otsu sibly sustaining an office that, if well discharged, must employ the greatest portion of his time, must. Nevertheless feel that he has to take care 9f his reputation as an author, advance his fortunes, and attend to the pub lic and private avoeations which his celebrity has opened to him. These 'sxhsust his energies. He thinks occasionally of his duties as an editor - procrastinates - to-morrow will give more leisure - ou unexpected and indispensable engagement consumes the morrow the month advances the day of publication presses upon him with alarming celerity - he is totally unprepared - he sits down to write; but he must produce some thing worthy of his fame - something that will justify the high expect! tions of the public. In this be either fails or succeeds according as he is in or out of the vein. In fact, a great name does little in advancing the real and substantial interests of a periodical. The anonymous might, this view, therefore, be preferred. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The New Monthly Magazine Literary Journal, 1834, Vol. 3 I then did not know the world uite so well as I afterwards did; and when I saw the smile of friends 'p upon the countenances of these ladies and gentlemen, and felt the kind pressure of their proffered hands, I also felt assured that I had not been the subject of their conversa tion in the next. Roots, but thatosome other man and some other drama had been so generally anathematized; and, perhaps, my ignorance was bliss, for seeing how extremely happy they were to meet me, and henn ing how earnestly they pressed me to join their party, I countermanded my horses till the evenin and passed what, in the sequel, turned out to be a very entertaining (g y.
