      LORD BROUGHAM'S COPY OF THE EDINBURGH REVIEW .

      To the Editor of the Publishers' Circular . Sir , —This very interesting copy may

      perhaps settle the long-disputed question , as to the writer of the famous review of the ' Hours of Idleness' which stung Byron to the quick

      < J % J A . ' , and produced the ' English Bards and Scotch Reviewers . ' There can be scarcely a doubt that either Jefiery or Brougham wrote the

      caustic review , and if the volume which contained it has been initialed by Brougham , all doubts will be settled .
