Publisher Description

Popular collection of essays, first published in 1860. The book begins: What would the Englishman do without his newspaper I cannot imagine. The sun might just as well refuse to shine, as the press refuse to turn out its myriads of newspapers. Conversation would cease at once. Brown, with his morning paper in his hand, has very decided opinions indeed,--can tell you what the French Emperor is about,--what the Pope will be compelled to do,--what is the aim of Sardinia,--and what is Austria's little game. I dined at Jenkins's yesterday, and for three hours over the wine I was compelled to listen to what I had read in that morning's Times. ”
