A famous American editor and controversial writer; born in Amherst, N. H., Feb. 3, 1811; died in New York, Nov. 29, 1872. In the countless articles, papers, and pamphlets that issued from his pen, as well as in "The American Conflict" and "Recollections of a Busy Life", he is revealed as the consistent and able opponent of social wrongs and ills of every description; and as a writer he is gifted with a nervous, living style that powerfully supports the arguments he advances. In "Glances at Europe" and like works he is happy in description.
