PREFACE.

THOUGH, strictly speaking, it matters not to thee, gentle Reader, where, or by whom these pages were written, yet it may be well for thee to be assured that they are submitted to thy notice from no persuasion on the part of their Author that the views they contain are novel, or that they can lay claim to startling comparison, or striking imagery.

The writer's sole design in arranging them, was that of being active and useful in his arduous profession.
