Publisher's Synopsis

Some readers may be disposed to inquire why I have allowed two or three years to elapse between the writing and the publishing of this journal. I can offer no other satisfaction to their curiosity than by informing them that the delay has been occasioned by circumstances of a private and do meatic nature. The careless arrangement of mate rials, ia these pages, will furnish, I am afraid, more than abundant evidence of the fact, that the ma nuscript has been untouched during the interval, and that the original copy has been placed in the hands of my publisher, with such few verbal corrections and additions as my present occupations have permitted me to make.
