Hamilton, are two excellent writers. They are the sons of the veteran journalist of Abolition times, Mr. Robert Hamilton, Sr., and were brought up in the editorial and composing rooms, so to speak. Mr. William Hamilton is with The Evening Post, and Mr. Robert Hamilton is a general gatherer of news for the New York papers. He (Robert) was upon the staff of The Elevator, at San Francisco, and The Progressive American in New York. Of late, he has been upon the staff of one of the Brooklyn daily papers. He is a terse and ready writer.
We must not omit to mention a Virginia lawyer, R. W. Rose, of Lynchburg, Va., a brilliant writer, lately associated with The Industrial Day as corresponding editor. Mr. Rose was an associate of the author on The Lynchburg (Va.) Laborer, and is a mellifluous writer. He was, for a short time, owner of that journal. Mr. Rose brings to bear upon his contributions vast experience and practical judgment.
Augustus Broussard is a fair writer on The New Orleans Crusader. If he continues in the profession he may yet attain to some eminence, editorially.
John G. Whiting of Fort Smith, Ark., is a coming writer of some fame. He was, for a while, associate editor on The Peoples Protector, an interesting paper at the place where he resides.
There are many able writers whose articles appear over noms de plume which we could not begin to mention. Suffice it to say, the force is efficient, and is destined to be more so in the future.
