“The New World.”

But for fear of disparaging the “Broadway Journal,” we would say, unhesitatingly, that the “New World,” under the editorial guidance of Charles Eames, is the very best weekly paper of its class, published in this country. Not to mention the more solid qualities which render him a good editor, editorially considered, Mr. Eames is one of our most vigorous and original thinkers; and unlike some original thinkers whom we have in our mind's eye, he has the faculty of imparting to his readers, through an accurate and exceedingly graceful style, a full consciousness that he does think both vigorously and originally, and knows well what he is thinking about — a very great deal to say of any man, as times go.
