The miscreant Hazlitt continues, I have heard, his abuses of Southey, Coleridge and myself, in the Examiner. -- I hope that you do not associate with this Fellow, he is not a proper person to be admitted into respectable society, being the most perverse and malevolent Creature that ill luck has ever thrown in my way. Avoid him -- hic niger est -- And this, I understand, is the general opinion wherever he is known in London.
