Book Description
Excerpt from The Edinburgh Review, Vol. 137: Or Critical Journal: For January, 1873;;; April, 1873; To Be Continued Quarterly To roll back the cloud of obscurity that has veiled, for eighteen centuries, the site of one of the most famous cities in the world, is a task not unworthy of the age. The labours of the men of the present time have given voice to the long silent hieroglyphics of Egypt; to the arrow-headed characters, cut in stone or impressed on clay tablets, by Persian and Assyrian scribes; and to the inscriptions of Phoenician kings. Chapters of ancient history, long regarded as hopelessly lost, arc in process of at least partial recovery. Few investigations are calculated to shed more light on the course and the causes of past events than the exploration of the deep-piled ruins of a city, of which the sages and rulers have influenced the course of human events more than the philosophers of Greece or the Emperors of Rome. It is, therefore, a fact in which Englishmen may take some degree of honest pride that, apart from any hope of gain or commercial impulse, funds have been raised by private subscription, adequate at least to commence, in a competent manner, the survey and exploration of Palestine.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Edinburgh Review, or Critical Journal, Vol. 195: For January, 1902;;; April, 1902; To Be Continued Quarterly Finance must almost necessarily occupy a prominent position in the Parliamentary debates of the immediate future. The enormous addition which has been made to the ordinary expenditure of the country in recent years, the huge cost of the war in South Africa, and the consequent growth of taxation, must direct the attention of men of all parties to the requirements of the great spending departments and the inequalities or inadequacy of our financial system. But Imperial finance has during the last dozen j-ears been so closely bound up with local taxation that the Legislature, in addressing itself to one subject, will find itself compelled to deal with the other. If there were no complaints of injustice from the ratepayers of the country, the necessity of revising our system of Imperial taxation would force every financial authority to consider the concurrent difficulties of local finance. But there is a still better reason for thinking that local taxation must fill a large place in the political programme of the immediate future. Its rapid growth, the manner in which it is levied, the crushing severity with which it falls in many places on the real property on which it is a charge, combine to draw attention to the burden which it imposes. The taxpayer is hardly conscious of many of the imposts which he bears. Few men associate the cost of the cup, which they love, or of the weed, which they love more, with the requirements of internal administration or external politics.
