...Simplicitas," "My First Psychological Experience," "A Side Light,"- for such bright and original descriptions as "Youth," "In the Crowd," "A Face," "Broken Butterfly"- for such an able biographical paper as that on "Newman and Kingsley,"- and many other pieces delicate in fancy and execution, of which only lack of space (that never-failing friend of the newspaper critic) prevents mention...
