Under the bead of Warrcu County we have
seven pages of small type devoted to a Bi
ography of Mr. Macon. And perhaps no
where in the Book is the author's unfitness
for his self-iniposeil t^isk more apparent
than in those seven pages. We do not
speak now of the inaccuracies of style, hut
of the adulation bestowed upon even the | mcnt
faults and the littlenesses of a character j “best,” we do not know but that we should
generally pure and patriotic, beyond a ' agree with him that it would be “a ncccs-
