How could Colney expect his English to tolerate such a spiteful diatribe! The suicide of Dr. Bouthoin at San Francisco was the finishing stroke to the chances of success of the Serial; although we are promised splendid evolutions on the part of Mr.
As for the 'pathetic sublimity of the Funeral of Dr. Bouthoin, Victor inveighed against an impious irony in the over dose of the pathos; and the same might be suspected in Britannia's elegy upon him, a strain of hot eulogy throughout.
