While dressing, he turned over the sheets of Whitmonby's journal. Dull comments on stale things. Foreign news. Home news, with the leaders on them, identically dull. Behold the effect of Journalism: a witty man, sparkling overnight, gets into his pulpit and proses; because he must say something, and he really knows nothing. Journalists have an excessive overestimate of their influence.
Marcus Tonans; 'what! that singularly handsome woman?.. The Dannisburgh affair?... She's Whitmonby's heroine. If she writes as cleverly as she talks, her work is worth trumpeting. He promised to see that it went into good hands for the review, and a prompt review an essential point; none of your long digestions of the contents.
Tonans, and Mr. Whitmonby's choice picking of specimens down three columns of his paper.
She did even, at Whitmonby's table, on a red-letter Sunday evening, in concert with him and the Dean, bring down that cataract, the Bodleian, to the levels of interchanging dialogue by seasonable touches, inimitably done, and never done before.
