HUTTON, RICHARD HOLT (1826-1897), English writer and theologian, son of Joseph Hutton, Unitarian minister at Leeds, was born at Leeds on June 2, 1826. From 1855 to 1895 Hutton and Bagehot were joint-editors of the National Review, a new monthly, and conducted it for ten years. In 1861 Hutton became joint-editor and part proprietor of the Spectator, then a well known Liberal weekly. Hutton's own articles became and remained up to the last one of the best-known features of serious and thoughtful English journalism. He was an original member of the Metaphysical Society (1869), an anti-vivisectionist, and a member of the royal commission (1875) on that subject. Hutton died on Sept. 9, 1897. Selections from his Spectator articles were pub lished in 1899 under the title of Aspects of Religious and Scientific Thought.
