Blackwood's Magazine.—I. P. (Philadelphia, Nov. 18, 1851), writes to G. W.:
"Can you tell me who contributed to Blackwood's Magazine, May, 1838, the pleasant paper, 'Father Tom and the Pope; or a Night at the Vatican?' The impression prevails here that it was written by Maginn."
It was understood at the time to be a Mr. Ferguson, a writer in some Dublin paper,—a Wexford man.
