_Mr. Henry Southern_ (editor of "The Retrospective Review") wrote the "Conversations of Lord Byron," and "The Fanariotes of Constantinople," in the tenth volume. _Mr. Walter Savage Landor_ was author of the Imaginary Conversation, between Southey and Porson, in volume eight. _Mr. Julius (Archdeacon) Hare_ reviewed the works of Landor in the tenth volume. _Mr. Elton_ contributed many translations from Greek and Latin authors; from the minor poems of Homer, from Catullus, Nonnus, Propertius, &c. Messrs. Hartley Coleridge, John Clare, Cornelius Webb, Bernard Barton, and others sent poems; generally with the indicating name. I myself was amongst the crowd of contributors; and was author of various pieces, some in verse, and others in prose, now under the protection of that great Power which is called "Oblivion." Finally, the too celebrated _Thomas Griffiths Wainewright_ contributed various fantasies, on Art and Arts; all or most of which may be recognized by his assumed name of Janus Weathercock. To show the difficulty of specifying the authorship of all the articles contributed,--even Mr. Hessey (one of the proprietors) was unable to do so; and indeed, shortly before his death, applied to me for information on the subject. |
