FOREWORD
THE attention of collectors of choice books is called to
the list herein contained of Kelmscott Press publica-
tions, which includes some of the rarest examples of these
beautiﬁll books. The press having been discontinued at
Mr. Mom's’ death, and the whole of the ornaments, ini-
tials, and blocks deposited in the British Museum, under
such conditions that thy cannot be used for at least 100
years, absolutely precludes the issuing of false impressions
or reprints. These books are still increasing in value
and are becoming more and more rare as they are being
gradually absorbed into permanent collections. I shall
be glad to hear ﬂom anyone wishing to procure any of
these books or to complete sets.
Special attention will be given to the importation of
books to order; a number of the latest and best books are
kept for sale, and all new books desired will be promptly
procured.
On request, any book in this catalogue will be sent on
approval, expense of carriage to be paid by the customer.
I shall be glad to receive addresses of persons desiring
catalogues sent them.
Libraries catalogued and valued. Orders taken for
binding.

As a reﬂex of the Reign of George III. and of the political, social and moral
intrigues of the time. Gillray's caricatures are unrivaled. and it is certain that
no such studies of corruption and social pollution and deﬁlement have ever
before or since that time been delineated with equal power and truth. The
second volume—devoted to the Surraassso Plates—might almost be termed a
social Chamber of Horrorsl Gillray is undoubtedly the Prince of English Cari-
caturists, and is considered by many as superior even to Hogarth.

THACKERAY (W. M.) The Yellowplush Correspondence.
FIRST EDITION, 12mo, m the original lialf dot/i, mil; paper label
mlacl, UNCUT. Philadelphia, E. L. Carey & A. Hart, 1838.
$125.00.
Tn; Rana FIRST EDITION, and the ﬁrst book of Thackeray's published in
America. Mr. Charles Plumptre Johnson in his early writings of William Make-
peace Thackeray, as s in referring to a volume of “Yellowplush Papers" in
“Appleton Popular Li rary" 1852; “The announcement of the volume, however,
mentions. after arelerence to the London edition of 1841, that a collection long
since out of print had previously been ublished in Philadelphia." it would be
veryinteresting to have articulars of this Philadelphia edition, as it was prob-
ably the ﬁrst volume ot hackeray’s writings published in America.
Only three copies 0! the book seem to have occurred for sale in several years,
and one in hall morocco. The beauty of this volume is the condition of the
original binding and the paper label being in perfect condition. This volume has
the article “Fashnable Fax & Polite Anny Goats," not reprinted in the Comic
Tales, London, I841, nor in the New York edition 0! I852. The ﬁrst appearance of
it in England seems to have been in 1885.
THACKERAY (W. M.) The Second Funeral of Napoleon,
in Three Letters to Miss Smith of London, and the Chronicle of
the Drum. By M. A. Titmarsh, with illustrations, square 18m0,
original gray wrappers as issued. London, 1841. $285.00.
Fine perfect copy of the ﬁrst Edition, with leaf of advertisement. With wrapper
bearing an etching of Napoleon, and four lull-page woodcuts. It is difﬁcult to
estimate the scarcity of this volume; perhaps not ﬁve copies are owned in this
goupitr . Thackeray was in Paris when Napoleon's body was moved there from
t. e ena.
Not only a rarity as a Thackeray FIRST EDITION, but lacking in most Napoleon
collections. The wrappers are of the highest interest and importance, as they
contain an engraving (O! NAPOLEON lying in state) by THACKBRAY.
“ Have you read Thackeray's little book—‘ The Second Funeral of Napoleon?’
llnot. pray do; and buy it, and ask others to buyit, as each copy sold uts 7%d. in
T‘s pocket; which is very empty just now, I take it. I think this boo is the best

presents, at last, a lively picture replete with striking contrast, yet
exquisitely natural, of which we admire the execution, whilst we
acknowledge the truth.”

Perhaps no name of modern times is productive of so many pleasant
associations as that of “ Horace Walpole,” and certainly no name was
ever more intimately connected with so many different sub'ects of
importance in connection with Literature, Art, Fashion, and olitics.
The position of various members of his family connecting Horace
Walpole with the' Cabinet, the Court, and the Legislature—his own
intercourse with those characters who became remarkable for brilliant
social and intellectual qualities—and his reputation as a Wit, a
Scholar, and a Virtuoso, cannot fail, it is hoped, to render his Memoirs

A most interesting relic of the gifted authoress, written when she was sev-
enteen ears of age. Like most of her girlish stories, the hero was the
Duke 0 Wellington. As Mrs. Gaskell says in her Life of Charlotte Bronte
“Did Charlotte want a knight-errant, or a devoted lover, the Mar uis of
Douro or Lord Charles Wellesley came to her hand. There is hard one
of her prose writings at this time in which they are not the principal'per-
sonages and in which their ‘august father’ does not appear as a sort of
upiter JI‘onans or Deus et Machina."

Gaskell, and of one of which a fac simile page is given in her “Life.”

WITH HOLOGRAPII LETTER by SIR WALTER SCOTT.
Complete Works, edited wrth Notes, historical,
critical and explanatory, and a Life of the author, by SIR WAL-
TER SCOTT; Illustrated with ﬁne portrait of the author engraved
on copper by F ittler, and a large folding copper plate view of the
Solemn Mock Procession of the Pope, Cardinals, Goa, through the
City of London, Nov. 17th, 1679. FIRST EDITION, 8vo, recently
bound in dark red long-grained morocco, to}? edges gilt, other
edges slightly trimmed, a TALL, HANDSOME and MOST INTEREST-
ING SET. London, PV. Miller, 1808. $125.00.
This was probably the publisher's (W. Miller) own copy, judging by the
INTERESTING LETTER from the Editor SIR WALTER SCOTT, which is in the
ﬁrst volume. The letter is entirel in ‘ir Walter’s hand, signed in full, im-
giressed with his seal—a stag wit the motto “Watch”—and is franked to
T. Miller Bookseller, Albemarle Street, and bears the Post Ofﬁce stamp
showin the time of its arrival—7 o'clock, 18 Nov., 1806. The letter is dated
from E inb., x Nov., 1806, and refers entire] to this edition, the opening
paragraph dealing with the engraving of the ‘ Mock Procession," which was
copied from an old print in Sir Walter’s possession, and which he requests
“must be taken particular care of, and returned to me in safety.” After
which is written, “I am as anxious as you can be to get rid of Dr den tak-
ing care however to avoid that fool's haste which is no speed.” ir Walter
then makes mention “of one or two books which I want much." Reference
is then made to the rtrait of Dryden, the time of publication, etc., and
concludes “I am, wit regard, Dear Sir, your very faithful servant, Walter
Scott.” Llntil quite recently this set was in the original boards, but the
bindin had become so dilapidated that rebinding was absolutely neces-
sary. ocarefully has this been done that the set is almost as tall and
quiteas clean, as when issued 94 years ago—a circumstance which of Itself
would lend additional value to any set, irrespective of the interesting asso-
ciations connected with this one.

A most interesting work. The memories clustered about the histor of
this famous house are more numerous, pleasant, and important, than t ose
concerning any other private dwelling in Great Britain. Holland House
was original! built in 1607, and ever Since that time has been the meeting
place for Whig politicians, for oets, gainters, critics and scholars in all de-
partments of lterature. Ad ison, t e poet and lirterateur, married the
widow of the second Earl of Holland and (the property and title having
poassed to Henry Fox) Charles James on was born there. The whole his-
ry and associations of the place are fully described and illustrated in the
above work, and the paper, printing and engravin are all good. Onl a
few copies were struc 01! on Large Pa er (of whic it will be noticed t is

have the series of photographs above mentioned, which were not supplied
to any other issue. This copy is in wonderfully clean condition—almost as

* * * To oblige the Ballantynes, who are now engaging in the publishing
business, I have promised them the assistance of my exquisite judgement in
making a pocket collection of fugitive poetry, which I shall reckon as very
incomplete without a specimen or two from your poems and those of Words-
worth. As a good and beautiful example of W‘s peculiar vein of poetry, I in-
tend to lay my clutches upon the little ballad called “We are Seven," and an-
other ' "‘ ‘ called “Glen Almain" " * *
I agree with you that Wordsworth lives too much for the lyre; the study of
poetry is so warped and woven in with the desire oi fame that it engages the
student too far in pursuit of that most capricious of all fautasms. " * ' I sus-
pect Boneparte has more ﬂax to his spindle than he will be able to spin off in
a hurry. " * * The Placing himself at the head of an undertaking almost uni-
formly infers his having provided all the means to insure a tolerable cer-
tainty of success, and on the other hand he has never hitherto relinquished
an enterprise half-ﬁnished, excepting when obstacles intervened which
seemed to infer a probability of miscarriage, etc., etc-

Walter M. Hill’s Bookshop
{I Growing wealth in America has its ﬁnest manifestations
in the increasing demands for books, especially for the best
books. Americans are not only in love with education and
the cultivation and culture which are its ﬂower, not only is
the national existence staked upon the value and worth of
these things, but books as containing all that is best and
ﬁnest in human knowledge and wisdom have been their
devoted care from the beginning. Such a love implanted
in the heart of the people of the United States at the
moment of their birth needs nothing but opportunity to
burst into bloom, and this is afforded by the wealth of its
population. Already Europe is complaining that the
American is carrying away the ﬁnest specimens of its liter- ‘
ature, and the charge is wholly just.
{I Year by year our countrymen are setting sail in quest of
something for which to exchange the golden ﬂeece they
have already wrested from nature. Year by year they are
returning laden with the spoils of the centuries. Last of
these modern and modiﬁed Argonauts is my friend, Walter
M. Hill, whose summer in England has enabled him to con-
sign to Chicago the most precious merchandise that has
ever entered its prosperous port. He sought for ﬁrst edi-
tions of the great classics, volumes which came from the
heart of the author straight to the reader, sometimes hun-
dreds of years ago, and his success is sufﬁciently remark-
able to warrant my calling the attention of book lovers to
it in this semi-public manner.
{I To hold in one hand the ca'itio princcps of Edmund
Spenser’s “Colin Clout,” published in 1595, and in the
other Matthew Arnold’s “Alaric,” of which only six copies
are known to exist, as I did in Mr. Hill’s bookshop the
other afternoon, is to feel that practically all of English lit-
erature is within one’s grasp. To see the three volumes of
Defoe’s “Robinson Crusoe,” not only in the ﬁrst edition,
but in the original calf bindings, is to renew one’S Own
youth and with it the youth of English prose. And when
a turn of the head brings into view a beautiful copy 0
Blackmore’s “Lorna Doone,” also in three volumes, the
same feeling in regard to prose rises in the mind that
Spenser’s and Arnold’s works produced a moment before
in respect of poetry.
‘ll Ben Jonson’s works in a ﬁrst edition, the original issue
of the Boccaccio translated by John Flor-i0, a perfect exam-
ple of the rare “Anatomy Of Melancholy” in its initial state,
and the I645 edition of Milton’s Poems are books the p08-
session of which must be envied by every man who 10"88
his mother tongue. Sentiment largely literary attaches
to these, while the heart is touched humanly by a number
of Charles Lamb’s best known works, “Rosamund Gray”
and “Tales from Shakespeare” among them, as the gentle
author ﬁrst saw them in print and so found relief from the
“dry drudgery at the desk’s dull wood.” And an unstained
copy of Goldsmith’s “The Vicar of Wakeﬁeld” in its pri-
mary binding of calf arouses the same tender pity for the
man who “wrote like an angel and talked like poor Poll.”
A ﬁne set of Dibdin’s bibliographical works makes the
mouth of the collector ﬁll with sweet water. How he
would rejoice tO-day in such books as followed his in my
view Of Mr. Hill’s acquisitions. the privately printed edition
of Mrs. Browning’s “Sonnets from the Portuguese,” a book
seldom heard of in the market; the “Salaman and Absal”
of Fitzgerald, as well as the “Rubaiyat;” Keats’s “Endy—
mion,” and “Lamia” from the skillful hand of Bedford and
so doubly beautiful; Shelley’s “St. Irvyne; or, The Rosi-
crucian,” with the leaves still uncut; Ruskin’s “Modern
Painters” and “Stones of Venice” among Others; presenta- .
tion copies with the handwriting of Browning, Carlyle,
Dickens, and many more in them; books illustrated by
Rowlandson, Cruikshank, Alken, with a numerous com-
pany, and volumes grateful to every reﬁned sense frorrl'the
Kelmscott and Doves Presses, and in bindings by Cobden—
111
Sanderson, Zaehnsdorf, Bedford, De Sauty, Riviere, and
half a score of only less worth. To these add, what Dibdin
never dreamed of, volume after volume of rare Americana.
{l These are treasures suitable for those who maintain
efficient treasuries, but there are hundreds of books only
less noteworthy which fall within the compass of a purse
not replete, the best and most enduring of gifts for others,
the most admirable of possessions for one’s self. It is good
to live in an age like this, when the Simplest taste can ﬁnd
aesthetic gratiﬁcation in this worthy manner.
f) A word about ﬁrst editions of books written out of the
human soul and so informed with the value that makes
them classic, and I am done. The world has never seen a
population eager to read with the approval of the ages a
tithe of the size we Americans have already produced for
other peoples to amaze themselves with. In response to
this huge demand growing with every day, books by bush-
els are being turned out in every variety of expensive man-
ner, long and complete sets of voluminous authors, well
printed and bound, and often with beautiful illustrations.
But these, good as they are, mark an early stage of the
book collector’s knowledge. Most of them are certain to
fall in value before the auction room ﬁnally ﬁxes the esti-
mation with which book buyers regard them when over-
persuasion no longer exists.
'l Better these than no books at all to mark aspiration.
Better these by far than some of the truculent and un-
worthy modern writings which betray this ﬁne and whole-
some ambition. But best of all the works upon which
Time, that best and most inexorable of critics. has placed
the seal of classical approval. There can be no blunder in
buying the ﬁrst edition of such a book—American or Eng-
lish. And, it seems to me, it is in bringing such volumes
within reach of the people of the great Mississippi Valley,
Mr. Hill is performing a noble service, quite beyond all
commercial considerations.

occupied Fitzgeral ’s thou hts several years previously. The book seems
to have a good sale, as in ay, 1868, in writing to Mr. Powell, Fitzgerald
says he does not know where to is hands on a copy of the ﬁrst edition. It
contains some ﬁne assages, one 0 which elicited the approbation of Tenny-
son—Prideaux Bib iography of E. Fitzgerald. Tennyson said that the‘de-
scription of the boat race in Euphranor was the most beautiful example of
English prose that he knew.

The ﬁrst book of which Charles Lamb was sole author, and his ﬁrst printed
prose work. The book seemsto have taken its title from a poem in the 1795
volume of “Poems” b Lamb’s friend, Charles Lloyd. It was well received,
and on the 20th day 0 Ma , 1799, Lamb wrote to Southey: “Rosamond sells
well in London, malgre the non-reviewal of it.” But the Monthly Review
noticed it in August, 1868, saying, “Mr. Lamb has here roved himself skil-
ful in touching the nicest feelings of the heart and in a ording great pleas-
ure to the imagination,” etc.
Needless to say, the book is extremely rare. Even in :8“, Talfourd says
that he was only able to ﬁnd a copy ‘after earnest search in all the book
stalls within the scope of my walk. But he afterwards found one exhibit-
ing pro er marks of due appreciation in a store of a little circulating library
near " olborn.”

copies are exceedingly scarce.”—Slater. In addition to the two illustrations
mentioned above, which are on India paper, there is inserted in this copy a
proof of the Caldecott illustration, diﬁering in design from the original illus-
tration. The author objected to the feather in the girl’s hat in the frontis-
piece, and the plate was therefore re-engraved, the feather being eliminated.
A few proofs of the plate in its ﬁrst state were struck off. one of which is in-

This set is in sheets, and in beautiful condition, with a duplicate set of title
pages in black and red. Nine lines of the poem, in Longfellow’s autograph,
written on a quarto sheet and signed, accompany the set.
This is the ﬁrst of the three copies, of which the second was owned by Theo-
dore Irwin, Esqre., (whose library was sold en blue to Mr. ]. Pierpont Mor-
gan, I believe) referred to later, and the third was destro ed in the ﬁre of
1871 in Chicago. These were printed for three Chicago co lectors, number
one for John A. Rice, number two for Edward G. Asay, and number three
for George \V. Ordway, at Mr. Rice's instance, at a total cost of $1,000. The
book is in the original sheets, absolutely perfect. India paper, quarto,
printed on one side only of a leaf ii 1-16 by i3 i-8 inches, uncut, with pagina-
tion in three volumes as follows: Vol. I, p. IOX4I4; vol. II. pp. 9X4I0; vol. III,
pp. 91:52, with a holo raph stanza and Signature of the distinguished trans-
lator done especially or this copy; there is no ﬁner specimen of American
book printing and literary art extant. Mr. Irwin’s copy has been expanded
from three to six volumes, bound in red levant morocco extra gilt, by Fran-
cis Bedford, and enriched b several hundred illustrations, including eighty-
seven woodcuts from an 01 copy of Velutello’s Dante, ninety-ﬁve plates of
Macchiavelli, a set of Flaxman's plates. Blake's folding plates. Dore’s illus-
trations from the French rose translation in proof upon India paper, a set
of Adamolli’s designs, and)niuch more, being valued at more than 81,000.
Mr. Rice’s copy with the Longfellow autograph and the letters from the
publishers establishing its cost, etc., was sold in the sale of the Rice library,
by Bangs, Merwin & Co., New York, March, 187i, for $270. It was after-
wards bought by ohn Holden, Esqre., and by him resented to Mrs. Rice,
where it remaine among the chief of her bibliological treasures at River-
side, Illinois. Upon Mrs. Rice’s death, the unbound sheets, falling into igno-
rant hands, were not adjudged of sufﬁcient value to be inventoried, and
were eventually cast into a rubbish heap upon the sale of the family man-
sion. They were rescued from a heap of broken crockery, unimportant let-
ters and much debris in one of the box stalls in the stables.
If the presence of the Asay copy in the Irwin collection prevents this, the
Rice copy, from being unique, the chequered history of this ﬁne work marks
it 06‘ as a treasure quite without parallel.

In the compilation of this—the only authoritative biography of William Mor-
ris—the author had unreserved access to all the materials in the possession
of Mr. Morris' family and representatives. The author also received inval-
uable guidance and assistance from Sir Edwin Burne-Jones, Mr. Cockerell,
and Mr Ellis, the latter of whom compiled the general index to the work.
This Original Issue is much superior to the reprints; and also to the cheap
re-isaue, which contains only ten out of the twenty-two plates.

hundreds of Literary Celebrities who are brought forward, not merel by
passing anecdotes, but b highly valuable memoirs and sketches, an the
extensive bibliographica and literary matter which they contain, render
the combined works one of the most permanently interesting bonks ever

and gifted with a keen spirit of manly humor 0f_ a Rabelaisian tingle, they
abound with incidents redolent of mirth and jollity. The artist, Mr, Leech,
was himself also an enthusiast in the sport, and has reﬂected in his illustra-
tions, with instinctive appreciation, the rollicking abandon of the stories.

This is one of the earliest and most outspoken of Mr. Swinburne’s Revolu-
tionary and Republican utterances, and although in later writin 8 his views
have been modiﬁed, it is supposed that the laureateship woul have been
ﬁlled by him at the present time, but for these earlier roductions. This
poem was included in the ﬁrst edition of “Songs of Two ations” published
in x875. The edition printed was a very limited one, and it has never been
reprinted in separate form.

“From 1867 to 187: he (Swinburne) gave his ardent sympathy to the cause of
Euro ean freedom, exertindg himself in laudation, almost in apotheosis, of
the I£epublican heroes an martyrs. Possibly his radical tendency was
strengthened in youth by association thh_a sturdy grandsire, the late Sir

serteux passes comprehension—yet for nearly ﬁfty years that seems to have
been the case. Mrs. Trollope was, in her day, somewhat like ‘Max O’Rell’ is

fence at the tales in ‘Les Filles de John Bull,’ as it was for the fair dames of
Cincinnati to ‘explode’ over the most laughable production of a humorous
novelist.

Perhaps no name of modern times is productive of so many pleasant asso-
ciations as that of Horace Walpole, and certainly no name was ever more
intimately connected with so many subjects of importance In connection
with Literature, Art, Fashions. and Politics. The position of various mem-
bers of his family connecting Horace Walpole wit the Cabinet, the Court.
and the Legislature—his own intercourse with those characters who became
remarkable for brilliant social and intellectual qualities—and his reputation
as a wit, a scholar, and a virtuoso, cannot fail, it is hoped, to render his Me-
moirs equally amusing and instrubtive.

B-EFARDSLEY (Aubrey): Malory (Sir Thos.) Le Morte D'Arthur,
reprin-ted word for word from Caxton’s Edition of 1485, pointed
and sbelt in conformity with modern usage; with an Introduc-
tion by Prof. RHYS, and about 300 illustrations by Aubrey Beard-
sley including frontispieces to each volume, and 46 full-page il-
lustrations and bordered pages in his best style. 2 vols, small,
4to, buckram, with gilt designs by the artist, uncut, top edges
gilt, as new, scarce. London, 1893. $30.00.
“Many a time has the Caxton ‘Morte D’Arthur’ been reprinted, but
surely never since its beginning has it had a more admirable setting
than is now given it. It is a pleasure to merely handle the handsome
quarto, wt‘h its cover of drab and gold, its quaint decorations and
illustrations, its rough wide-margined paper and its clear bold‘ typo-
graphy. He who reads Malory for the ﬁrst time is always enviable:
but he is thrice lucky if he so reads him in such an edition as this.”—
St. James Gazette. Only a limited Edition printed, and now quite
scarce.

kell. Portrait and Facsimile, 2 vols, 1857.
Owing to the extreme difficulty of procuring two or three of the
works, this is the only complete set which has occurred for sale for
years. In addition to their desirability as ﬁrst editions, these works
would form a handsome feature in any library.
The excessive rarity of “Jane Eyre.” even in a much-read and di-
lapidated form, is well known. “Shirley” also is almost equally
scarce, as is the ﬁrst edition of “The Life," by Mrs. Gaskell. In
the second and later editions passages were expunged which are only
to be found in the ﬁrst edition.

There is a pencilled signed note by Thorpe. the famous old Book-

items: (a) Ten lines of a Song, of which I append the ﬁrst four
lines as a sample of the bulk:
“Here’s a bottle and an honest friend!
What wad ye wish for mair, man—
Wha kens. before his life may end,
What his share may be 0’ care; man—”
(b) Two very comical Jests (in prose), nine lines of queer dry Scot-
tish humor;-—(c) Part poem entitled “Katharine Jaftray," of which
there are here four 4-line verses, commencing:
“There liv’d a lass in yonder dale,
And down in yonder glen; 0!
And Katharine Jaffray was her name
Well known to many men. 0!"

Robert Burton was born at Lindley, in Leicestershire, in 1576, and
died at Oxford in 1640. “The Anatomy Of Melancholy has been con-
stantly pillaged, sometimes imitated, never equalled. That his mel-
ancholy, or his conceit as an astrologer, induced him to shorten his
life is doubtless mere legend, but it is said from his calculation he
predicted that he would die on or about the above date, which being
exact, several Of the students did not forbear to whisper among
themselves that, rather than there should be a mistake in his cal-
culation. he sent up his soul to heaven thro' a slip about his neck."—
Athen, Oxon. -
“The only book that ever took me out of bed two hours sooner than
I wished to rise."—Dr. Johnson.
"The most amusing and instructive medley Of quotation and classical
anecdotes I ever perused."—Lord Byron.

“Hours of Idleness” was savagely criticised in the Edinburgh Re-
view for January, 1808, which criticism was the direct cause of the
publication of the satire “English Bards and Scotch Reviewers.”
BYRON (Lord). English Bards, and Scotch Reviewers; a satire.

(“Genuine ﬁrst issue with the correct water-mark in title page.”)
This masterly satire, though excusable enough as a reply to the un-
fair and violent criticism of “Hours of Idleness," contained in the
Edinburgh Review, was nevertheless itself unfair, in that Lord Byron
went out of his way to attack many contemporary poets who had
in no way offended him. This, he himself, subsequently deplored,
going so far as to suppress the entire edition (the ﬁfth of 1812) as
a sacriﬁce to his changed feelings.

A ﬁne copy of this rare and curious volume, containing the expe-
riences of one of the most quaint and ingenious of old English
travellers. There can be no doubt that the writer was a considerable
bore and of a vanity extraordinary, but his relations are much more
entertaining even through his weak points than they would Other-
wise have been. His good-nature must have been unbounded, or he
would never have allowed his friends to make a butt of him, though
it is probable that his vanity was such that so long as he obtained
notoriety he did not mind the cost. The engraved title-page itself
is a joke upon the author, and the couplets by Ben Jonson and
Laurence Whitaker, explanatory of the different compartments, are
in the broadest vein of jest and raillery. The prefatory verses, more
numerous than have ever been preﬁxed to any other book, before
or since, are in like manner all written in a vein more humorous than
complimentary; but this does not appear to have rufﬂed the author,
who merely remarks: ‘I have here communicated that copious
rhapsodie Of poems to the world that my learned friends have
bountifully bestowed upon me; wherein many of them are disposed
to glance at me with their free and mery jests, for which I desire
thee, Courteous Reader, to sus end thy censure of me till thou hast

AUTOGRAPH LETTER OF QUITE EXCEPTIONAL INTEREST.
[IN FACT ONE OF THE REST OFFERED FOR YEARS].
Signed with initials; to CATTERMOLE, the friend-
ly artist who, together with H. K. Browne, illustrated “Mas-
ter Humphrey’s Clock.”—Along with the letter is a ﬁne copy of
ghe 0weekly number [44] which is concerned. [1841] 3pp. 8vo.
50. 0.
This letter illumines the inner man of Dickens; shows how his
heart was bound to the creations—(shadows though they were)—Of his
own genius.
We know. from many sources, how punctilious Dickens was, that
his conceived notions Of characters and scenes, should be followed by
'hiS illustrators; how frequently they failed to give him satisfaction;
how minute he was in his instructions; and how Often plates were
cancelled or improved; and we have many traces in his correspon-
dence (published or unpublished), Of the vexation caused him by fail-
ure to produce an efﬁcient representation of his always clearly des-
criptive text.
Dickens commences:—
“Dear George—
“The child lying dead in the little sleeping room, which is behind
the Oaken screen. It is winter time, so there are no ﬂowers; but
upon her breast, and pillow, and about her bed, there may be slips
Of1 lrilolily, and berries, and rich free green things—Window overgrown
w t vy—
“The little boy who had that talk with her about the angels, may
be by the bedside, if you like it so, but I think it will be quieter and
more peaceful if She is quite alone. I want it to appear the most
beautiful repose and tranquility, and to have something Of a happy
look, if death can.”
(b) relating to page 216—
“2nd
The child has been buried inside the church, and the old man who
cannot be made to understand that She is dead, repairs to the grave
every day. and sits there all day long, waiting for her arrival, to begin
another Journey. His staff and knapsack, her little bonnet and
basket, etc., lie beside him. ‘She’ll come tomorrow’ he says when it
gets dark, and goes sorrowfully home.
I think an hour-glass running out, would keep the notion—Per-
haps her little things upon his knee, or in his hands."
It will be seen upon reference tO the two beautiful woodcuts, how
well “Dear George” has carried out his friend’s ideas.
iOn page 2 of the letter, and apart from the instructions to the artist
3 WT tten:—~
“I am breaking my heart over this story, and cannot bear to ﬁnish
it. Love to Misses,
Ever & always heartily C D n
It will be remembered that even Lord Jeffery, although a judge, hav-
ing undergone the previous case-hardening of an Edinburgh Review-
er, shed tears over the death of “little Nell,” and,—I think the sym-
pathetic chorus is universal in praise of the whole story Of the dear
child, the victim of an old lunatic grandfather.

This corresponds to the Morris "Note," with the difference that Mr.
Cobden-Sanderson prefers a treatment more abstract and less per-
sonal than that adopted by his predecessor. However, it relates the
aims of the newer press just as effectually, and doubtless voices the
attitude of Mr. Emery Walker, the writer’s cO-partner, whose prac-
tical knowledge Of the technique Of printing was very useful to the
founder of the Kelmscott Press in the days of its evolution. We read
in the “Short History” that “he [Morris] when not away from Ham-
mersmith, was in daily communication with his friend and neighbour,
Mr. Emery Walker, whose views on the subject coincided with his
own .”

Our modern apostles Of Fine Printing have been rather a long time
deciding to give us the best of all books. Their delay is, however,
amply atoned for in the splendour of their achievement, for we
have no English Bible to compare with it in typographical beauty.
The Jenson-like form of Roman Letter is used, and the lines are
printed straight across the page, the verses running on, as also the
chapters, these latter divided by paragraph marks, apart from which
there is nothing in the shape of ornament. The volumes still in
the press will be supplied as issued.

WITH HOLOGBAPH LETTER BY SIB \VALTEB SCOTT.
DRYDEN (J.). Complete Works, edited with Notes, historical,
critical and explanatory, and a Life of the author, by SIR WAL-
TER Sco'rr; illustrated with ﬁne portrait Of the author engraved
on copper by Fittler, and a large folding copper plate view of
the Solemn Mock Procession of the Pope, Cardinals, etc., through
the City of London, Nov. 17th, 1679. FIRST EDITION, 18 vols., 8vo,
recently bound in dark red long-grained morocco, top edges gilt,
other edges slightly trimmed, a TALL, IIANDSOME and MOST INTER-
ESTING SET. London, W. Miller, 1808. $125.00.
This was probably the publisher’s (W'. Miller) own copy, judging by
the Interesting Letter from the Editor, Sir Walter Scott, which is in
the ﬁrst volume. The letter is entirely in Sir Walter’s hand, signed
in full, impressed with his seal—a stag with the motto “Watch"—and
is franked to Mr. Miller, Bookseller, Albemarle Street, and bears
the Post Ofﬁce stamp, Showing the time of its arrival—7 o'clock, 18
Nov., 1806. The letter is dated from Edinb., 13 Nov., 1806, and refers
entirely to this edition, the opening paragraph dealing with the
engraving of the “Mock Procession," which was copied from an old
print in Sir Walter's possession, and which he requests “must be
taken particular care of, and returned to me in safety.” After which
is written, “I am as anxious as you can be to get rid of Dryden,
taking care however to avoid that fool’s haste which is no speed."
Sir Walter then makes mention “of one or two books which I want
much." Reference is then made to the portrait of Dryden, the time
of publication, etc., and concludes, “I am, with regard, Dear Sir,
your very faithful servant Walter Scott.” Until quite recently this
set was in the original boards, but the binding -'had become so di-
lapidated that rebinding was absolutely necessary. So carefullly has
this been done that the set Is almost as tall, and quit as clean, as
when issued 94 years ago—a circumstance which of itself would lend
additional value to any set, irrespective of the interesting associa-
tions connected with this one.

“It is a collection of wise Saws and modern instances—some of them

Very rare. The author’s ﬁrst publication, of which only a very small
number of copies were printed.
This little book, the first fruits Of his genius, seems to have had
a special attraction for Fitzgerald. Though not published till 1851,
Euphranor had occupied Fitzgerald’s thoughts several years prev-
iously. The book seems to have a good sale, as in May, 1868, in writ-
ing to Mr. Powell, Fitzgerald says he does not know where to lay
hands on a copy of the ﬁrst edition. It contains some ﬁne passages,
one of which elicited the approbation of Tennyson.—Prideaux Biblio—
graphy of E. Fitzgerald. Tennyson said that the description Of the
boat race in Euphranor was the most beautiful example of English
prose that he knew.

“Essays of Elia" were published (London) 1823; “Album Verses”
(London), 1830; a period of seven years between the two works.
During that interval. we have this letter; and it would be very in-

in a Scottish Magazine, for want of an appreciative London pub-
lisher. It was originally published in 1798.

“Sir Joshua Reynolds was on very many accounts one of the most
memorable men of his time . . . He was the ﬁrst\Engiishman who
added the praise of the elegant arts to the other glories of his coun-
try. . . . To be such a painter he was a profound and penetratin
philosopher. The loss of no man of his time can be felt wit
more sincere, genuine, and unmixed sorrow. . . . He is always the
same man; the same philosophical, the same artist-like critic, the
same sagacious observer, with the same minuteness without the
smallest degree of triﬂing.”-»Edmund Burke.

Under the MieroseOpe. First Edition,
crown 8vo. newly bound in full red levant extra, gilt top, UNCUT,
with the original paper wrappers bound in, by RIVIEBE. FINE
COPY, VERY season. London, 1872. $35.00.
The manner in which copies of “Under the Microscope” have been
absorbed is remarkable. Five hundred copies were printed in 1872, and
until quite recent years examples were readily obtainable at a. few
dollars each. Now copies occur at increasingly lengthened intervals,
and ﬁnd a prompt and ready sale at to $40.
One of the rarest Swinburne items, and almost unknown to the Swin-
burne collector. Most interesting containing as it does some of his
earliest published work, not to be found else-where. The prose por-
tion of the tale is entirely by Miss Gordon, the inters ersed verse by
A. C. Swinburne and consists in all of 415 lines, inclu ing a complete
imitation of an Elizabethan Interlude entitled “Pilgrimage of Pleas-
ure."

Fine copy of the rare First issue, with Moxon’s imprint on title.
Edward Moxon was not destined to retain for long the honor of
publishing the ﬁrst series of "Poems and Ballads.” He was ren-
dered nervous (unwisely and needlessly nervous, as the event proved)
by the unreasoning and hysterical criticism ﬂung at the book, and the
storm of opposition roused by certain of its contents. He resigned
his commission as Mr. Swinburne’s publisher and allowed the “Poems.
and Ballads” to ether with “Chasteland” and the “Queen Mother”
and “Rosamond' to pass into the hands of John Camden Hotten.
Hotten promptly reissued them having cancelled Moxon's title-page
and supplied the book with one of his own.

reproduced in Goupilgravure by Boussod. Valadon & Co., by whom
both plates and text were printed at Asnieres, near Paris.
Through many years Lear set apart a selected series of designs, which
he labeled Landscape illustrations of Tennyson of which those here
published are a sample. They are Lear’s Sermons on texts taken from
Tennyson’s Introduction. This is got up with a view 01 carrying out
to some extent a long cherished dream of Lear’s never realized of u-
sociating in a. larger publication his name with that of the Poet’s.

THACKERAY, (W. M.). The Paris Sketch Book, by Mr. Tit-
marsh, illustrated with 12 full-page humorous plates, and wood-
cuts in the text by the author. FIRST EDITION. 2 vols., post 8vo,
original cloth, UNCUT, vERY FINE COPY. London, Macrone, 1840.
$75.00.
The very rare ﬁrst edition, with all the full-page illustrations. Thack-
eray’s ﬁrst book, and very interesting for this reason, also for its be-
ing so entirely his work, having been not only written, but illustrated
by him. It is curious, like Dickens’ ﬁrst books, “Sketches by Boz.”
Thackeray's ﬁrst book was published by the same printer, John Ma-
crone, 1840
THACKERAY: Comic Tales and Sketches. Edited and illus-
trated by MR. MICHAEL ANGELO TITMARSH, author of “The Paris

page plates by the Author. FIRST EDITION. 2 vols., crown 8vo,
ﬁne clean copy in original cloth, the gilt lettering in ovals, UN-
CUT. London, H. Cunningham, 1841. $100.00.
Fine copy. Of great rarity in this state. “This book, like most of
Thackeray’s early works, did not sell well at ﬁrst, but after he had
made his name as the author of ‘Vanit Fair,’ the stock was looked
up, and a new title e printed, whic refers to the writer as the
author Of ‘Vanity Fa r,’ etc., and bears no date. Care must therefore
be taken that the title corresponds exactly with that set out above.
It is now one of the rarest and most sought after of Thackeray’s
works.”-C. Piumptre Johnson.
THACKERAY (W. M.). The History of Pendennis: His Fortunes

London, Bradbury & Evans, 1848-50. $60.00.
First Edition in the original parts as issued. Very rare in this con-

Next to “Vanity Fair" this is the scarcest Thackeray book issued in
original parts.

THlACKE‘RAY (W. M.). An Essay on the Genius of George
Cruikshank—Not Hooper’s reprint (1840), but the “Westminster
Review” Article, with all the original plates and woodcuts which
illustrated it. The whole of the text, and all its Illustrations
very beautifully INLAID on 4to sheets of drawing-paper, uni-
form, and extended from its original form of 60 8vo pages, by
the addition of considerably over 400 ExTRA ILLUSTRATIONS. These
additions include: (COLORED) 75 plates; (INDIA PROOFS) 57;
(PLAIN ETOIIINcs AND ENGRAVINGS) about 300, many of them
proofs—(this includes wood cuts), 4 vols., 4t0, beautifully bound
in full crushed levant morocco extra, with gold ornaments from
specially cut binder’s tools, the designs gathered from the books,
the top edges gilt, others UNCUT, each vol. enclosed in a cloth-
covered box, with front to look like books. “Westminster Re-
view” Ofﬁce, 1840. $300.00. ‘
This mentions only a few of the Extra Illustrations: (a) Portrai-ts
of the two brothers; Hundreds of Caricatures (colored and plain),
embracing full sets of the following Illustrations (besides very many
representative specimens of other sets)—-Peter Schlemihl (8), Punch
and Judy (24), Bee and Wasp (4), Oliver Twist (24), Comic Alma-
nacks 1836-1837 (24). Miser's Daughter (20), Yule Log (4), Sketches by
B02 (12), Tower of London (40 plates and 58 woodcuts). Uncle Tom's
Cabin, the full set on India Paper (26); Bentley’s plates to detached
pieces (several), and many Single covetable impresions; the whole in-
cluding quite a number of India proofs, impressions from private
plates, etc.; besides a large number of scarce coloured plates.
They are throughout—picked impressions, in ﬁne state; AND—the
buyer need not fear having his purchase made to look small beside
any other of similar description, unless scores of pounds have been
laid out upon it.
To each volume Mr. Pallthorpe has added "one of his own” drawn
title-pages. To those who know his work, that statement will be a
sufﬁcient description.

for English ladies to take offence at the tales in ‘Les Filles de John

most laughable production of a humorous work.

$350.00.
The First English Translation of Rabclais, and Still Considered the
Standard Text.
The year 1653 saw the appearance of Urquhart's admirable translation
of the ﬁrst book of Rabelais—“one of the most perfect transfusions of
an author from one language into another that ever man accom-
plished.” In point of style Urquhart was Rabelais incarnate, and in
his employment of the verbal resources, whether of science and
pseudo-science or slang, he almost surpassed Rabelais himself. As
for his mistakes, they are truly “condoned by their magniﬁcence.”
He often met the difficulty of ﬁnding the exact equivalent of a French
word by emptying all the synonyms given by Cotgrave into his ver-
sion; thus on one occasion a list of thirteen synonyms in Rabeiais is
expanded by the inventive Urquhart into thirty-six. Some of the chap-
ters are in this way almost doubled in length. Motteux’s part is also
excellently well done and it has. in conjunction with Urquhart’s, been
frequently reprinted down to the present day, showing how thorough-
ly he mastered the English language.

THE FIRST TRANSLATION OF THIS CLASSIC IN ENGLISH VERSE.
In his translation of Virgil, Douglas is on quite untrodden ground.
He has the merit of being the ﬁrst classical translator in the lan-
guage, and he seems to have set his own example by working at
passages of Ovid, Of which no specimens exist. He must have done
the whole work, prologues and all, together with a. translation Of the
supplementary book by Maphaeus Vegius, within the short space of
eighteen months. He writes in heroic couplets, and his movement is
conﬁdent. steadfast. and regular. In several of the prologues he
reaches his highest level as a poet. He shows a strong and true love
for external nature, at a time when such devotion was not specially
fashionable; he displays an easy candour in reference to the opinions
of ‘those likely to criticise him; he proves that he can at will (as in
the prologue to Book VIII.) change his style for the sake of effect;
and in accordance with his theme he can be impassioned, reflective,
or devout. The hymn to the Creator preﬁxed to the tenth book, and
the prologue to the book of Maphaeus Vegius—descriptlve of summer
and the “joyous moneth tyme of June"—are specially remarkable for
loftiness Of aim and sustained excellence of elaboration.

Charles Lamb considered this work to be one of the most curious and
interesting books in the language.
The artistically illustrated literature of England during the sixteenth
WAL TER III. HILL

and greater part of the seventeenth centuries may be said to be al-
most exclusively represented by books of emblems, which were, in-
deed, in this country, the only works in which art, literature, amuse-
ment and instruction were blended together. There are few subjects
of so much popularity and amusement, both to the young and to the
Old, from the nature of their design, and the beauty, spirit and felicity
exhibited in their embellishments, as these productions and amongst
what may be termed the English series of them, There is no Collec-
tion of Greater Interest and Importance than this Noble Volume of
the Fertile and Proliﬁc \Vither. The “Lotteries” are exceedingly
curious, and it is said that the author was induced, rather In order
to advance the proﬁt of his bookseller, than to satisfy his own judg-
ment to invent something in addition to the Emblems, which might be
likely to delight the vulgar capacity. He had some misgivings about
the decorum of a man of his gravity and ripe age turning fortune-
teller, but he satisfied himself that it was harmless, and that it
Should not be used as an oracle but as a moral pastime. This is the
only moral lottery we ever heard of.

Wordsworth read The Waggoner to Lamb in 1806, and upon receiving

“in some measure the cause Of its present appearance” it was to him
he dedicated it.

“A MASQUE OF LOVE," by Charles Erskine Scott Wood, is a blank
'verse poem of unusual interest. It is in three parts. The ﬁrst has for its
subject instinctive love, such as was known in the twilight of the gods. The
second confesses to the perplenity' which arises when these impulses oi! the
free heart are bound by laws, and the consequent crime and doom that
follow. The third presents a climax in_lo_ve refined by other elements,
leavened‘ by friendship, chastened by suffering, and made steadfast by
reﬂection. . .
The idea is one of those that admits of strong individual treatment, and
the power of it is to be measured by the method of its presentation. The
greatest of poets might not be ashamed to undertake this theme. And it
can be truthfully said that Mr. Wood has approached his subject with
passionate intensity, with ardent temperament, and facile eloquence.
The climax is a temperate one. It shows man submissive to nature and
receiving instruction from her; shows him making himself amenable to his
own laws, and temperingsll the cruel revelations of life with his patience,
his fortitude, and his good will. He rises above the half god of the ﬁrst
part and the arrogant overman ot the second by his power of intellect,
which, in the face 01! any adversity would still keep him free. His Joys
‘ havegone the round of experience, included sorrow, taken cognizance of
death, and reached againthe goal otgjoy. \ I
It is a pleasure to commend this poem to lovers of blank verse; for
it it suffers at the last from lack oi! dramatic unity it is, nevertheless, a
document of rare fecundity of idea. ‘It is hoped this book will go beyond
its limited edition of 600. experience some revision, and come to take its ‘
place among the present day poems of true'intellectuality.--Chicago Tribune.

Fine copy. London, I841. $20.00.
This was the ﬁrst translation made direct from the Arabic into English;
all previous translations .‘had been made through the French, and are con-
sequently much garbled and incomplete. It is still the best translation for
general reading, being quite close enough to the original in passages of a
delicate nature, without being so violently free as the most recent trans-
lations. The notes of Mr. Lane are very valuable and interesting, and
“Throw more light upon the mystery of Arab life than perhaps all other
works in the ianguage."—Athenaeum.

W. Arnold says that “the poem of ‘Empedocles on Etna’ was with-
drawn betore ﬁfty copies of the ﬁrst edition were sold. I must suppose then
that one of these was the copy I had when a schoolboy—how snatched
betimes from the wreck, and washed across my way, I know not; but I
remember well enough, how then, as now the song of Callicles clove to my
ear and memory; early as this was, it was not my ﬁrst knowledge of the
poet.”—A. C. Swinburne.

don, 1833-38. $125.00.
This volume is from the collection of the late Mr. Dykes Campbell, and

addition of two 4-line stanzas, to the poem entitled—“The Image of God."
This is in Miss Barrett’s (she became Mrs. Browning) autograph. Its
acquisition by Mr. Campbell led to a personal acquaintance with Robert
Browning, who veriﬁed the autograph, when appealed to; and this slight
literary introduction led to a long and intimate friendship between the
great poet and not the least appreciative of his admirers.

Each volume contains marginal marks by Fitz-Gerald; and, at the end,
references in his autograph to noted passages, in _a kind of autograph
reference index. 011 fly-leaf of Vol. I is his autograph transcript of a noted

Dr. Elliotson was a great friend both of Dickens and Thackeray. The
copy of “Evenings of a Working Man" with a preface relative to the
Author by Charles Dickens was dedicated to Dr. E‘lliotson. Thackeray,
while writing “Pendennis,” the publication of that work was stopped by his
serious illness. He was brought to death's door, and he was saved from
death by Dr. Elliotson, to whom, in gratitude, he dedicated the novel when
he lived to ﬁnish it.

but Miss Mitford was insistent, and so they found the light. So far the
most diligent search has only revealed about twelve copies. Besides being
one of the One Hundred Books Famous in English Literature, exhibited
by the Grolier clu'b, this must be one of the rarest volumes of any lilth
century writer. Wiriting to Mr. Gosse, many years after, Mr. Browning
says: “I dared not reserve to myself the ﬁnest sonnets written .in any
language since Shakespeare’s." The world is richer for his generosxty.

and Journals, and Memoirs of his Life by T. Moore, illustrated
with a ﬁne portrait of Byron, and 33 very ﬁne plates of the scen-

son, Stanﬁeld and others. First Edition. With brilliant impres-

12m0, newly and handsomely bound in full polished calf gilt, gold
border on sides, gilt tops, uncut. By Riviere. A very beautiful
set. London, Murray, 1832-33. $50.00.
The prettiest edition ever issued, and the plates in this—the original—
issue are gems of the engraver’s art, and vastly superior to those of any
of the many reprints of it. The difﬁculty of procuring a set of this issue,
with the plates unspotted, and the binding so handsome, is only known to
those who have tried to get one, and no one particular on those points
should miss the opportunity here presented.
"The handiest, pleasantest, and altogether the most distinguished edi-
tion, of Byron the world ’has seen ' " " ' the decorative and illustrative
value of the frontispiece and vignette titles engraved after Turner, Stanfield
and others at the time when English line engraving was at its best, are in
absolute keeping with the modesty, sobriety and self-restraint of the edi-
torial work.”—Athenaeum.

The “revision” adverted to upon the title-page, is probably a phrase
which modestly conceals the real fact that Cowper largely re-modelled,
and frequently supplied himself, much of this volume. I cannot ﬁnd any
mention Of the publication in any of my reference books. It is a most
interesting volume.

This copy contains the “Directions to the Binder," on the reverse of p.
217, which were omitted in the later Issue. They have the frequently wanting
half-titles. As each of these has a different quotation from an ancient Fairy
Tale, printed upon its reverse page, the absence of either, or both of these,
is a most serious defect.

of his colored work. Uncut copies are of exceptional rarity, and a copy
such as the above, ﬁrst issues throughout and with all the covers and

156 DICKENS (0.) PERSONAL RELIcs OF OUR AUTHOR.
Of the very greatest interest. (a) Drab Wide-Awake Hat
(Maker, Hithouse, II New Bond Street, London). The meas-
urement inside is 7%x6y2 inches. This is a large size, as might
be expected. There must be room for the brain, and Charles
Dickens had one. (b) A Linen Collar (turn-down shape)
marked in red marking cotton “C. D.” The length of this is 16
inches. $50.00.
The above are authenticated by the following letter addressed to Mr.
Hughes of Birmingham, from whose collection these valuable personal
relics of Mr. Dickens were purchased.
“16 Edward Street, York Road, Lambeth, S. E.,
and Hill Side, Strood, Kent.
"My Dear Mr. Hughes:
“As promised I have sent the hat and collar formerly belonging to the
late Charles Dickens. If you think the articles sufﬁciently interesting to
retain, please accept of them from yours truly. William Ball.”
81 The letter is not dated, but Mr. Hughes has written beneath M-‘r. Ball’s
gnature:
“Received 20th August, 1880. W. Hughes."
The letter will be included with the purchase.

Our modern apostles of ﬁne printing have been rather a long time
deciding to give us the best of all books. Their delay is, however, amply
atoned for in the splendour oi! their achievement, for we have no English
Bible to compare with it in typographical beauty. The Jonson-like form of
Roman letter is used, and the lines are printed straight across the page. the
verses running on, as also the chapters, these latter divided by paragraph
marks, apart from which there is nothing in the shape of ornament.

Very rare. The author’s ﬁrst publication, of which only a very small
number of copies were printed.
This little book, the first fruits of his genius, seems to have had a
special attraction for Fitzgerald. Though not published till 1851, Euphranor
had occupied Fitzgerald's thoughts several years previously. The book
seems to have a good sale, as in May, 1868, in writing to Mr. Powell, Fitz-
gerald says he doe not know where to lay hands on a copy of the ﬁrst
edition. It contains some ﬁne passages. one of which elicited the approba-
tion of Tennyson.—Prideaux Bibliography of E. Fitzgerald. Tennyson said

The most extraordinary collection of works on the subject of Flagella-
tion ever got together. Buckie collected a large library of curious books.
and among the many topics that engaged his attention was the subject of
Chastisement. By good fortune he secured a complete set of the astound-
ing 'books issued by George Peacock during the last century, and as no other
examples of many of these varieties are known to exist a few copies have
been privately printed as curiosities of Literature. Apart from the extreme
rarity of the collection, the works are remarkable for the light they throw
upon the state of society in the last century.

7 pp. XVIII Century. $100.00.

the above is very cheap.

ﬁve of them are and in the same exquisitely neat and close y packed manner
of the ﬁrst page.
The MS. consists of notes made in his reading Diodorus Siculus, and
were very probably used in preparing his lectures, as Professor of His-
tory at Cambridge, to the chair of which he was appointed in 1768. Gray
died in his favourite university town in 1771.

289 LAMB (Charles) LLOYD (Charles) POEMS 0N VAR-
IOUS SUBJECTS. First Edition. 8vo, boards, uncut, Carlisle,
1795. $40.00.
A most interesting volume, in Coilectors' State. Allibone incorrectly
states that the ﬁrst edition was published in London, 1796. Although there
is a printed leaf of errata. a few rinter’s errors are corrected with the pen,
in all <grobability by Lloyd himse t. On pp. 36-38 is a poem entitled "Rosa-
mund ray." Lamb's pathetic tale was not published until 1798.

QUIRIES INTO THE EFFECTS OF FERMENTED LIQUORS. By a Water
Drinker, 5 ﬁne plates, 8vo., full calf gilt, gilt top, uncut. London,
1818. $25.00.
Pp. 901-215 are occupied by “Confessions of a Drunkard," a striking paper
by Charles Lamb, contributed by him to this work, where I believe it ap-
eared tor the ﬁrst time, and without any signature, or acknowledgement by
- ontagu of its source, although nearly every extract in the book has its
authorship assigned.

“This is a Psalterium—First come the Psalms; then the usual Canticles,
from the Old Testament, which we no longer use. . . . then 'Te Deum,’
‘Benediciti,’ etc., etc., and lastly, the Litany. At the end are sundry
Canticles and Hymns for particular days," etc. Ascribed to a monastic
scribe of Eastern France, near the Italian Frontier, possibly at Grenoble,
or the Chartreuse. The text counts 22 lines on the page, in a bold large
letter; and the ﬂoral and tructual ornamentation oi' the large initials, and
the decorative borders are singularly ﬁne. 0n the ﬁrst page 0! the Calendar
are the arms of an ancient owner oi! the volume.

“Sir Joshua Reynolds was on very many accounts one of the most mem-
orable men of his time . . . He was the first Englishman who added the
praise of the elegant arts to the other glories of his country. . . . To be
such a painter he was a profound and penetrating philosopher. . . . The loss
of no man of his time can be felt with more sincere, genuine, and unmixed
sorrow. . . . He is always the same man; the same philosophical, the same
artist-like critic, the same sagacious observer, with the same mmuteness
without the smallest degree of trifling."-—Edmund Burke.
“Sir, I know no man who has passed through life with more observation
than Reynolds. . . . Reynolds is without a rival.”—Samuel Johnson.

son, ﬁrst issue Of the pretty miniature edition. 3 vols., 16m0,
full crimson levant, gilt edges, 0 very ﬁne copy with brilliant
impressions of the plates. London, Ackerman, 1823. $40.00.
This is the pretty miniature edition, for which the Jilates were especially
re-engraved one-third of the original size and coioure by hand from Row-
landson’s larger designs. It was issued by the same publisher (Ackerman)
as the larger edition, and was so popular with all classes and ages of the
public that clean and perfect copies of the ﬁrst issue are now most difficult
to obtain. It was reprinted several times, and the plates suffered the inevi-
table deterioration; so a collector should be careful to obtain the original.
The set here offered is the original issue, complete and well bound.

remarkably powerful and curious colored plates, all by T. Row-
landson. Together 3 vols., royal 8vo, newly bound in full crim-
son morocco extra, gilt edges. Ackerman, 1815-17. $150.00.
Most quaint and curious series, showing the vast ﬁeld spread before the
universal depredator, that most accurate of book keepers, and most remorse-
1ess of creditors. Solemn as the occasion of Death's visit must ever be,
Rowlandson never fails to blend touches Of his peculiar humour with the
more serious aspects. The Dance of Life is of a cheerful and humorous
Chiaracter, satirising the follies of life, without any grim. or mournful ad-
m xture.

Twenty-ﬁve copies only are said to have been printed. The Question has
been dropped by its author and is not included in any of Mr. Swinburne's
collected volumes and considering the controversial nature of the subject
treated, it is in the highest degree improbable that it will ever be revived.
It contains some bitter verses addressed to Mr. Gladstone.

the authorship of the Heptalogia, but *has at the same time expressed his

506 TENNYSON (Lord) THE FALCON. First Edition.
12mo, original blank buff paper covers, uncut. London, printed
for the Author, 1879. $300.00.
This play was acted by the Kendals for sixty-seven nights in December,
1879, and in the early part of 1880. It was not published until 1884. This is
one of a very small private issue printed for copyright, or for the use of the
actors. Shepherd surmised that there might have been a private edition for
this purpose but he says that he never saw or heard of a copy. In this
rivate issue the names Of the actors are not inserted in the Dramatis
ersonae. Priced by a New York bookseller at $500.00. ‘

507 TENNYSON (Lord) THE PROMISE OF MAY. 12m0,
original light brown paper cover, uncut. London, printed for the
Author. 1882. $350.00.
The excessively rare privately printed ﬁrst edition but 11 copies known.
The last of the privately printed plays and after “Becket” the rarest. It
was acted for a few weeks in 1882, but was not regularly published until it
was included in the volume "Locksley Hall Sixty Years After," in 1887. Ex-
tremely scarce. Priced by a New York bookseller at $550.00
508 TENNYSON THE NEw EDITION 0F LORD TENNYSON’S
.COMPLETE'WORKS, including the large biography by his son, il-
lustrated with 8 ﬁne portraits of Lord Tennyson, 4 photo-gravure
views of Somersby Rectory, Farringford, and the Study Window,
‘Aldworth, and 5 facsimiles of original MS. 12 vols., 8vo, newly
and handsomely bound by Riviere, in half red levant extra, richly
gilt backs, gilt tops, uncut. London, 1898-99. $120.00.
A very handsome set of this beautiful “Edition de Luxe" printed with
’good type upon Antique Paper specially manufactured for this edition, and
the issue was strictly limited to 1050 copies. It is an ideal edition—immeas-
urably superior to any edition of Tennyson’s Wlorks ever published—and one
~that is never likely to be surpassed, either for editorial correctness, or grace-'
fulness of format. It is uniform with the “Eldition de Luxe”\ of Lamb, Pater,
Kipling, and Stevenson, and is now out of print.
509 TENNYSON (Alfred, Lord) THE CUP. 8vo, original
wrappers, uncut. London, printed for the Author. 1881. $325.00.
The excessively rare privately rinted ﬁrst edition. The work was not
issued for general publication till 1 , when it was included in “The Falcon
and the Cup." Speaking of it in his Bibliography of Tennyson, Richard
I-Ierne Shepherd, says: “The Cup"—a Classical drama—was produced at the
Lyceum, in 1881. Neither of these plays (The Falcon and the Cup) had been
published at the time; and it therefore seems probable that a small edition
bf both was privately printed, for the use of the actors, etc. I merely hazard
"this as a conjecture, but do not possess special information on the subject;
still less did I ever see or hear of a copy of either." Extremely rare being
one of a very few copies which were privately printed for the author‘s use.
Priced by a New York bookseller at $660.00.
510 TENNYSON (A.) THE SAILOR BOY. First Edition.
I6mo, original printed paper cover. London, 1861. $250.00.
This poem was contributed to the Victoria Regia, A Christmas Miscellany,
'edited and published by Emily Faithfull who had founded a printing estab~
jis'hment in London, in which only female compositors were employed.
Thackeray and James Russell Lowell were also contributors to the volume.
Twenty-ﬁve copies of Tennyson’s poem were printed separately as above.
is separate issue was unknown to Shepherd or to Dr. Rolfe. The cover
of the little pamphlet was evidently printed from the same types as the
‘title page, but is surrounded by a border built up of printers ornaments.
Below the border word “25 Copies for the Author‘s Use" were added. The
outside page of back cover has the same border, but in the center are only
the words “The Victoria Press as printed in the 'The Victoria Regia'." The
poem is not divided into stanzas. In this separate issue it is, printed as six
utanzas of four lines each. Extremely scarce, only 25 copies having been
printed for the author’s use. Priced by a New York bookseller at $375.00.

Cornhill, 1830. 12mo, in the original boards, uncut, with the
paper label, a beautiful copy, very rare in this state, in full levant

This is Tennyson's first collected Volume of Verse. Of the ﬁfty-six pieces
in the Volume, twenty-three have never been included in any authorized
edition of the author's works. Copies like the above rarely occur for sale.
513 TENNYSON (Lord) HELEN’S TOWER. Privately print-
ed, Clandeboye, n. d., 1862, with engraved title, containing a vig-
nette of the tower, ﬁne copy in the original green wrappers, ex-
cessively rare. $125.00.

on page 7 by Lord Tennyson, written at [the request of the Marquis of
Dufferlln, on a tower built in memory of his mother, Helen Lady Dufferln,
Countess of Gifford. A copy of this was sold in 1900 for £66.0-0. and priced

514 TENNYSON (Lord) POEMS. Illustrated by Edward
Lear, with Lord Tennyson’s autograph. 4t0, half morocco, gilt
top, uncut. London, 1889. $50.00.
Only 100 copies printed, all on Japanese paper. Certified and signed by

scapes by Lear, portrait of Tennyson b G. F. Watts, R. A., and ortrait of
Lear, twenty-four in all reproduced in ‘oupilgravure by Boussod, aladon &
Co., by yhom both plates and text were printed at Asnleres, near Paris.
Through many years Lear set apart a selected series of designs, which
be labeled Landscape illustrations of Tennyson of which these here publish-
ed are a sample. They are Lear's Sermons on texts taken from Tennyson’s
Introduction. This is got up with a view of carrying out to some extent a
long cherished dream of Lear’s never realized of associating in a larger
publication his name with that Of the Poet’s.
515 TENNYSON (Alfred, Lord) POEMS. The exceeding-
ly scarce First Edition. 2 vols., 12mo, newly and beautifully bound
by Riviere, in full olive green levant gilt extra, gold tooling on
sides and backs, Roger Payne style, gilt edges, 0 pretty copy.
London, M oxon, 1842. $40.00.
Beautiful copy of the ﬁrst collected edition. Tennyson's muse was silent
for nine years, when suddenly these two volumes appeared, with such ex-
quisite lyrics as “Claribel,” “The Lady of Shalott,” “Lady Clara Vere de
Vere,” “The May Queen," “A Dream of Fair Women,” and others, to de-
light the public. It is interesting to note how much that wa best of the
Poet’s writings appeared first in these two volumes.
516 TENNYSON (Lord) ' CARMEN SAECULARE An Ode.
First Edition. London, printed for private distribution, 1887.
12mo, original printed stiﬁ’ paper covers, gilt edges. $165.00.
This was a “Jubilee Ode" written in honor of Queen Victoria. It was
ublished in Macmillan’s Magazine for April, 1887, under the title “Carman
gaeeulare An Ode”, in honor of the Jubilee of Queen Victoria. The magazine
issued was apparently an earlier text as there are several points of differ-
ence. This separate reprint was unknown to Shepherd. Mr. Wise states
that only twenty copies were printed. When included in the “Demeter”
volume in 1889 the title of the poem was again altered to “On the Jubilee
of Queen Victoria.” Priced by a New York bookseller at $400.00.

poem is a most noble tribute.
518 TENNYSON (Lord) LUCRETIUS First Edition.
Square 12mo, cloth, uncut. Cambridge, Mass., 1868. $35.00.
It is curious that, though printed in this country, no copies seem to turn
up here in the market. The ﬁrst copy to be offered at auction was one which
brought £12 in the Crampton sale in 1896. The auctioneer’s catalogue stated
groaéo only twenty copies were printed. Priced by a New York bookseller at

XXXIII. 12mo, original blue paper covers, uncut, privately
printed, 1862. $30.00.
This is Hotten‘s pirated volume, said by Mr. Wise to have been edited '
by J. Dykes Campbell, and to have been printed in the Island of Mauritius.
Shepherd says that he never saw a copy and that he did not know its con-
tents. It contains all of Tennyson's poems printed in the 1830 and 1833 vol-
umes,iw-hich were suppressed in the 1842 edition as well as alterations and
variat ons.

"-He had already given proof of the poetic faculty he shared with so
many of his family by joint authorship with his brother Alfred of the Poems
by two Brothers, published by them anonymously in 1827. Alfred Tenyson
reckoned some among the ﬁnest in the language, and the judgment of the
best critics will coincide.”—Canon Ainger.

covers bound in. London, Chapman and Hall, 1830. $150.00.
'This is a very early copy, as will appear, by the insertion of an interest-
ing signed autograph letter, addressed to Mr. Hicks, evidently the reader in
the ofﬁce of Bradbury & Evans, who printed the Ibook for the publishers.
The address ﬁy-leaf bears the Postoﬁlce stamped date “Ja. 23, 1838."
“My dear Mr. Hicks.
On looking hastily over the proof. I see no mistake except at page
123, where at line 1'7 the word ‘sister' should be substituted for ‘visitor,’ etc.
. I have looked over several copies of the First Edition, and in all but
this one, the correction is made.
The letter is addressed from ‘Twickenham Park.’ "
12 DICKENS (Charles) EXCEEDINGLY INTERESTING ITEM ;
being the Printer’s Proof of 2% sheets (Signatures M, N, and
O) of the “Charles Dickens Edition” of his “CHRISTMAS BOOKS,”
pp. 161-208 (i. e. 48 -pp.). These include pp. 16I-2oo (or the
matter which occupies over 140 pp. of the 175 which make the
l
833 MARSHALL FIELD BLDG., CHICAGO 3

Original Edition) of “The Battle of Life.” The remaining por-
tion (or pp. 201-208) being the commencement of “The Haunted
Man.” $250.00.
When the “Christmas Books" were printed for “The Charles Dickens
Edition," the running head-line of the left-hand page was the title 01' the
respective books, but a new head-line had to be adopted for the right-hand
page. This, it will be seen, from its brevity yet descriptive sufﬁciency would
render it necessary for Mr. Dickens to read over again, after the lapse o!
more than twenty years, each printed page, so as to secure the most appro-
priate head-line for the .text of every page.
In this portion of proof, there are twenty-two pages which are so headed.
in the autograph of Dickens, and in the familiar blue ink.
Thus: P. 161 is headed, “Inﬁdelity and Faith;" p. 163, “The Release;"
p. 165. “Marion is entrusted to Grace," and so on, throughout.
tl‘he person from whom this portion was bought was the son of the
printer's reader, who said that the whole of the rest was DESTROYED, and
merely this bit preserved “as a tad of the old gentleman’s.” Would that the
old gentleman’s tad had been more comprehensive.
This most valuable item is placed loosely inside a watered silk cover.
and enclosed within an 8vo crushed levant morocco drop-case, fashioned like
a. book, extra ﬁnish, specially made for it.
13 DICKENSIANA (a) Proof Portrait of Dickens, on
India Pater. An exceedingly Interesting 'Item, underwritten on
extreme left bottom margin: “First Proof.” A Proof pre-
sented by Dickens .to John Payne Collier, the famed Shakespear-
ian authority. Engraved =by Fi-nden, after the original painting
by Maclise.
We are very familiar with the engraving in its published
form, as the frontispiece to “Nicholas Nickleby;” but this is
Four Times the Size; is on India Paper, and on comparing it
with the book frontispiece, I ﬁnd that the latter is Re-engraved,
or very considerably Re-touched. It .is of the full size 0f 17 by
12 inches, with all the margin.
(b) Autograph Signed Letter, relating to the very por-
trait abo've catalogued:
“Dougherty Street,
Saturday, October 9th.
My Dear Collier,
I send you the best ‘proof’ I have—bad is the best I fear,
but I have the consolation of believing that bad as it is, you could
not buy so good a one from a most excellent and most mangled
picture. Always believe me,
Very truly yours,
' Charles Dickens.
John Payne Collier, Esquire.”
(c) The actual paper in which Mr. Dickens sent the above
portrait, on the front of which he has written with his own hand:
“With a Note—John Payne Collier, Esquire, 24, Brompton
Square; Charles Dickens.” $125.00

faced by the well known lines 'by Mr. Dobson, beginning, ‘Apollo made one
April day.’ Mr. Dobson's choice in this case was not approved by another
friend of the Rowfant poet, and the result of the latter's protest was the
private issue in 1882 of a supplementary selection, called for the ﬁrst and
only time, London Rhymes.”

Moore his price for an article for “The Yellow Book." This letter has the
Postoflice stamped envelope.
(b) Another A. L. S. in which he says that Yvette Guilbert is very

with him’! as she writes.”

(R. L.) ADMIRAL GUINEA. A Melodrama in Four Acts. First
Edition. Crown 8vo, in the printed cover, UNCUT. Edinburgh,
for private circulation only, 1884. $60.00.
Most excessively rare; and greatly enhanced in both interest and value
by the insertion of an autograph letter, to Mr. Hutchinson from 'Mr. Henley,
signed with initials, and dated 2-9-97. The writer ﬁnds that he has not got
a copy of “Macaire left so I send you Admiral Guinea instead. It is vastly
better reading and there is more of it; so in one sense you’re no loser." The
writer then proceeds to pay a tribute of gratitude to the Schoolmaster of
his boyhood, in a passage which seems to convey that his correspondent had
been at the same school. The wrapper is also inscribed in Henley’s auto-
graph: “W. E. H. to T. H. -2-9-97.”
To emphasize the privately circulated character of the brochure, the
wrapper bears the printed direction, “To be returned to W. E. Henley” and
iris; tigdfess. A copy of Admiral Guinea sold at Sotheby's April 27, 1899, for

“He had already given proof of the poetic faculty he shared with so
many of his family by joint authorship with his brother Alfred of the Poems
by two Brothers, published by them anonymously in 1827. Alfred Tennyson
reckoned some among the ﬁnest in the language, and the judgment of the
best critics will coincide.”—C'anon Ainger.

44 TENNYSON (Lord) BECKET and other Plays; crown
8vo, portrait, original cloth, from Sir Henry Irving’s Library,
with his bookplate and addpted by him for stage production. Lon-
don, 1892. $80.00.
The copy used by Sir Henry Irving in arranging this tragedy for the
stage, and throughout scored, altered, deleted, and added to in his autograph.
t is a matter of common knowledge that the success of Tennyson’s
Dramas are to a large extent due to the great manager-actor, whose unpar-
alleled genius for dramatic effect was never more highly exercised than when
shaping, pruning and arranging for the stage, the dramas of his Old friend.
In this case so drastic was his treatment that the word ‘pruning’ hardly ex-
presses the process,—nearly a half of the play was literally 10de away,—
the scenes were re-aranged, and new sentences added in places. The dra-
matic finish to the play itself is due to his pruning pencil, as in the original
version the poet drifted past the death of Becket with ﬁve more short
speeches,—the last being ‘The deed’s done—Away!’—to something of an
anti-climax.
Although it was ﬁrst offered him in 18.79, it was not produced until 1893,
when it was received with overwhelming applause, there being no less than
ﬁve "recalls" at the end of each act. It was ﬁrst produced on his birthday,
and it was the last play in which he acted.

6I ARABIAN NIGHTS (The) A TRANSLATION FROM THE
ARABIC, with .copious notes by E. W. Lane; illustrated with sev-
eral hundreds of excellent engravings on wood by W. Harvey.
3 vols., royal 8vo, new half morocco gilt, gilt tops, UNCUT, fine
copy. London, 1847. $22.50.
This was the ﬁrst translation made direct from the Arabic into English;
all previous translations had been made through the French, and are conse-
quently much garbled and incomplete. It is still the best translation for gen-
eral reading, being quite close enough to the original in passages of a delicate
nature, without being so violently free as the most recent translations. The
notes of Mr. Lane are very valuable and interesting, and “Throw more light
upplréhthe mystery of Arab life than perhaps all other works in the language.”

one of these was the copy I had when a schoolboy—how snatched betimes
from the wreck, and washed across my way, I know not; but I remember
well enough, how then, as now the song of Callicles clove to my ear and
memory; early as this was, it was not my ﬁrst knowledge of the poet.”—

90' BARCLAY (John) His AROENIS, translated out of
Latine into English; the Prose upon his Majesties Command, by
Sir Robert Le Grys, KL, and the Verses by Thomas May, Esq.,
with a Clauis annexed to it for the satisfaction of the reader, and
helping him to understand what persons were by the author
intended, under the fained names imposed by him upon them.
1629. Small quarto, bright red morocco, border of inlaid blue
pointille tulips at intervals, separated by geometral compartments
inlaid in lemon yellow, and entirely covered with delicate scroll
tooling; centre panel, lettering in centre, with inlaid blue pointille
tulips and gilt branched leaves at top andl bottom; a gorgeous
piece of colouring, suggested by an old binding of Charles II.
period, bound by Riviere & Son. $100.00.
John Barclay was born in 1582, at Pont a Moumn, d. 1621. He came to
England in 1605, but his latter years were spent in Rome, amidst his books
and ﬂowers, displaying more wisdom in his Bibliomania than in the Tulip-
mania, of which last disease he is supposed to have been one of its ﬁrst
victims. His principal work “Argents” was translated by Sir :Robert Le
Grys, as it is said at the request of Charles I. It is a political allegory, a
romance, and a system of politics. The characters all represent various dis-
tinguished personages in history and real life. Richelieu was very fond of
perusing this work, and it is thought from thence he drew many of his
political maxims. Cowper says “It is interesting in a high degree; richer in
incident than can be imagined, full of surprises, which the reader never fore-
stalls, and yet free of all entanglements and confusion. The style too appears
to me to be such as would not dishonor Tacitus himself.” As both Cowper
and Coleridge gave it as their opinion that this is the most amusing romance
ever written, there must be some reason for the judgment; we must admit
having failed to ﬁnd it.

“Many a time has the Caxton ‘Morte D’Arthur' been reprinted, but surely
never since its beginning has it had a more admirable setting than is now
given it. It is a pleasure to merely handle the handsome quarto. with its
cover of drab and gold, its quaint decorations and illustrations, its rough
wide-margined paper and its clear bold typography. He who reads Malory
for the ﬁrst time is always enviable; but he is thrice lucky if he so reads
him in such an edition as this."—St. James Gazette. Only a limited edition

manner. $65.00
An interesting little volume, containing commendatory verses by Ben
Jonson, Francis Beaumont, Thos. Nevill, Michael Drayton, etc. The author

his brother Francis, together with William Browne, author of “Britannla’s
Pastorals”:
“Then the two Beaumonts and my Browne arose,
My dear companions, whom I freely chose
My lbosom friends; and in their several ways
Rightly born poets."

known couplet:
i‘The stage how loosely does Astrwa tread,
Who fairly puts her characters to bed.’ "—Allibone.
But Dryden, Langbaine, Cotton, Baker. and others, praise her for her
wit, imagination and smoothness of versiﬁcation.
"‘Mrs. Behn was a woman of so celebrated a fame while she lived, and
so esteemed, that to give a perfect draught of her, one must write like her."—-

dered with heavy gilt dots, in the ﬁnest piece of “Tulip” binding
(this ﬂower was a very favounite form of decoration in the I 7th
Century), somewhat in the manner of Le Monnier or Padeloup,
one of the handsomest pieces of binding which Riviere & Son
have ever put out from their workshop. $100.00.
This is the genuine second edition; there was another issued in 1670 also
called the second edition. It is very scarce in this fine state
The volume much resembles Herbert's Temple, and the friend of the au-
thor, in his warm and enthusiastic “Preface to the Reader,” says: “Here's
Herbert’s second, but equall, who had retrieved poetry of late, and returned
it up to its primitive use; let it ‘bound back to heaven gates. whence it came.”
Richard Crashaw was born in London, and was educated at Charter-
house and Pembroke Hall, Cambridge. He entered the Church, but was
ejected in 1644 for refusing to take the Covenant. He now removed to
France, and became a convert to the Roman Catholic religion. He died of
fever in 1650. His poetry consists principally of religious invocations and
translations of uncommon merit from the Latin and Italian. His luxuriance
of imagiation and exquisite facility in the expression of his poetical visions
have seldom been surpassed. \
\Crashaw, however, neglected in later days, was the companion of Selden,
and the idol of Cowley. Pope has borrowed not only expressions but entire
lines from this poet, which indeed he confesses, and highly extols his talents
in Letter 26 to Mr. Cromwell.
I 74 CRUIKSHANK: Blackmantlé (Bernard, i. e., C.
M. W estmacott, the infamous Editor of “The A ge,” etc.). THE

cuts, by Robent Cruikshank. First Edition. 2 vols., 8vo, full
crushed levant morocco, UNCUT, top edges gilt, very scarce. Lon-
don, Sherwood, 1825-26. $200.00.
This is, if not the very rarest, certainly one of the very few rarest fast-
life pictures of earlier nineteenth century life. The text, although scandalous,
as might be expected with such a name attached, is as amusing as the illus-
trations are excellent. Robert Cruikshank, in this 'book, did some of his best
work.

As Grimm’s German stories are the ﬁnest of all Cruikshank’s uncolored
etchings so The Tumourist takes highest rank as the rarest and choicest of
his colored work. Uncut copies are of exceptional rarity, and a copy such
as the above, ﬁrst issues throughout and with all the covers and backs intact
is almost unique.

include colored theatrical portraits (including 3 of Kean); political and
Napoleonic caricatures; a series of 8 colored engravings from Collier's Punch
and Judy; a portrait of Robert Cruikshank, drawn by Geo. Cruikshank. and
engraved and ﬁnely colored by hand by Pailthorpe (this is the only existing
portrait of Robert Cruikshank); etc., etc. Among the other plates may be
mentioned some private engravings made by Cruikshank for Sir William
Fraser; a complete series of 8 etchings for the “Poems by the Knight of
Morar" (privately printed in 1870. and very rare) ; etchings illustrating Dick-
ens and Ainsworth; etc., etc. In cases where the plates are undated or

“There are two issues of the ﬁrst edition, the earliest in pink cloth, and
the later one in dark brown cloth. The peculiarity of the later issue is that
the ﬁnal plate, entitled ‘The Last Son ,’ has round it a pictoral border never

Collectors of the works of Chas. Dickens should not hesitate in procuring
any of the foregoing items in the original parts, with all the interesting ad-
vertisements. wrappers, etc., as they are becoming more and more difficult
each year to pick up in this state. The above I think is a complete set as
issued in parts, and many of them sold at auction in London this year for
considerably more than these prices.

250 DRYDEN (John) (1631-1700). Born at Aldwinkle
Northampton-shire. He had his “ﬁrst learning” at Trichmarsh,
went to Westminster School and matriculated at Trinity College,
Cambridge. On leaving Cambridge Dryden seems to have found
employment in London. He subsequently worked and lodged
with Herningman the bookseller, who published his books, and he
steadily made way both in poetical and dramatic writings. He
suceeded Sir William Davenant as Poet Laureate in 1668. To
Dryden’s credit must be added the honour of having replaced
upon the highest pedestal the reputation of Shakespeare. It may
be noted he had written a ﬁne encomium upon Shakespeare in his
“Essay of Dramatic Poetry,” and he set .to_ adapt Shakespeare’s
plays to the taste of the time, and did more than any contem-
porary to raise the appreciation for their author, whom, con-
trary .to the prevalent opinion, he preferred to Ben Jonson.
“I admire him” (Jonson), “but I love Shakespeare.” Dry-
den died from the effects of gout at his house in Gerrard Street
in 1700.
A Poem Upon the Death of His Late Highness, Oliver, Lord
Protector of England, Scotland, and Ireland, written’ by Mr.

252 DRYDEN (John) THE HIND AND THE PANTHER, a
Poem, in three parts. London, Printed for Jacob Tonson, at the
Judge’s Head in Chancery Lane, near Fleet-Street, 1687. First
Edition, 'sm. 4to, a ﬁne copy in green morocco extra, panelled
sides, gilt edges, by Riviere & Son. $125.00.
Fine copy of the earliest issue of the ﬁrst edition, with ‘Licensed’ leaf fac~
ing title, and three-line Errata at the end. The poem is Dryden’s longest,
and being a justiﬁcation of his religious beliefs, it is written in his best man-
ner, many of the lnes standing amongst the most musical in the English
language. It defends the Roman Catholic religion, and its publication was
deliberately timed to aid the King (James II.) in his scheme of a Catholic
reaction. At the same time, as Professor Morley points out, “there was no
bribe, direct or indirect, and Dryden was the reverse of a time-server in
staying by King James when nearly all his friends were leaving him.” A
ﬁne spirit of charity pervades the Poem throughout, and the high place it
has won in our literature is due to the grand way in which it expresses the
views of the foremost poet of his time on a question of acute concern to the
future of English history.

copies are known. It is rare and rivals in importance, scarcity and value
the ﬁrst edition of Omar Khayyam. A copy recently priced in a New York
catalogue in cloth at $180.00. Fitz Gerald in a letter to H. Schotz Wilson
(1882) says of the Salaman . . . It was the ﬁrst Persian poem I heard,
with my friend Edward Coweli, near on forty years ago; and I was so well
pleased with it then (and now think it almost the ‘best of the Persian poems
I have read or heard about), that I published my version of it in 1856 (I
think) with Parker of the Strand.
262 FITZGERALD (Edward) SIX DRAMAS OF CALDERON,
freely translated. Small 8vo, original cloth, UNCUT. London,
Pickering, 1853. EXCESSIVELY RARE. $60.00.
First Edition.
“This volume, as we learn from Fitzgerald’s letter, was unfavorably no-
ticed in the Leader, and in the Athenaeum, on its ﬁrst appearance. . . . This
determined spite of the Athenaeum, however, disconcerted him and he called
in all the unsold copies, with the result that the book is now excessively rare."
—Prideau:r’s Bibliography of Edward Fitz Gerald. ~
“The six Dramas of Calderon freely translated by Edward Fitz Gerald,
1853, are by far the most important and worthy contribution to the knowl-
edge of the Spanish poet which we have yet received."—Archbi'shop Trench.
Probably not more than 250 copies were issued, and these were presently
withdrawn and suppressed, because of the unfavorable reviews.
263 FITZGERALD (Edward) EUPHRANOR, a dialogue of
Youth. First Edition. 12mo, original cloth, UNCUT. London,
Pickering, 1851. EXCEEDINGLY RARE. $27.50.
Very rare. The author’s ﬁrst publication, of which only a very small
number of copies were printed.
This little book, the ﬁrst fruits of his genius, seems to have had a.
special attraction for Fitzgerald. Though not published till 1851, Euphranor
had occupied Fitzgerald‘s thoughts several years previously. The book seems
to have had a good sale, as in May, 1868, in writing to Mr. Coweli, Fitzgerald
says he does not know where to lay hands on a copy of the ﬁrst edition. It
contains some ﬁne pasages, one of which elicited the approbation of Tenny-
son.--Prideaux Bibliograbhy of E. Fitzgerald. Tennyson said that the des-
cription of the boat race in Euphranor was the most beautiful example of
English prose that he knew.
263a FITZGERALD (Edward) EUPHRANOR, a dialogue of

This edition of "Euphranor" is much altered and enlarged, and con-
tains for the ﬁrst time an interesting reference to Tennyson on p. 72, and
the racing ballad of “Our Yorkshire Jen," etc.

the living, Carlyle and Newman, the whole graced by a charming and char-
acteristic preface by Fitz Gerald himself.”—Fortnightly Review, July, 1889.

This edition bears a dedication which reads as follows: “To the Ameri-

“The ﬁrst edition of Gay’s Fables in 4to, 1727, is one of the scarcest
books in the English language, there having been no more than 25 copies
printed, a dozen of which were for ye Royal Library. There were but 50
copies in 4to of the second volume. N. B.—The cuts for the quarto size were
all of ye very best impressions." (This note was written in a contemporary
hand in a copy I saw in London). These justly celebrated “Fables” were
written at the command of the Princess of Wales, as she engaged him to write
for the beneﬁt of the Duke of Cumberland, then an infant. “some tables in
verse.” This was the origin of the “Fables” which, with the “Beggar’s
Opera,” are the best known of Gay’s productions to the present generation.

The original issue of the ﬁrst series of this valuable work is excessively
rare, and contains many “piquant bits of scandal" suppressed from the later
editions. As clerk Of the Privy Council, the author enjoyed peculiar facili-
ties for studying Court life from within—an advantage which his shrewd
intelligence and cultured versatility turned to the best account; few English
Memoirs have been so copious, so exact, so well informed, or so incisive as his.

348 JOHNSON (Dr. Samuel) THE VANITY OF HUMAN
WISHES, the Tenth Satire Of Juvenal Imitated. First Edition.
4to, full polished calf extra, gilt edges by Riviere, ﬁne copy. Lon-
don, R. DOdsley, 1749. $45.00.
A beautiful copy of the ﬁrst edition of this immortal work. It was
much altered in after editions.
First edition of this excellent poem, which Lord Byron pronounces “sub-
lime.” It exposes, in a very solemn spirit, vain hopes, wishes, and efforts
of humanity at large. The portraits of Wolsey, Bacon, and Charles the
Twelfth are admirable in their execution. and in their adaptation to the argu-
ment of the piece; and the last paragraph for truth and masculine energy
is unsurpassed, we believe, in the whole compass of ethical poetry.
Lord Byron says: “Read Johnson's Vanity of Human Wishes, ’tis a
grand poem——and so true i—true as the 10th of Juvenal himself. The lapse
of ages changes all things—time—language—the earth—the bounds of the
sea—-the stars of the sky—and everything about, around, and underneath
man, except man himself. who has always been, and always will be an un-
lucky fellow. The inﬁnite variety of lives conduct but to death, and the
inﬁnity of wishes lead but to disappointment.”
And Sir Walter Scott observes: “The Vanity of Human Wishes has
often extracted tears from those whose eyes wander dry over pages professed-
ly sentimental.” Mr. Lockhart mentions in his Life of Sir Walter Scott,
that the great novelist frequently remarked that he derived more pleasure
from reading the Vanity of Human Wishes and London, than from any other
poetical compositions he could mention. “And I think” (continues that ines-
timable biographer) “ I never saw his countenance more indicative of high
admiration than while reciting aloud from those masterly productions."

plates designed by William Blake. London, printed for Thomas
H odgkins, at the Juvenile Library, Hanaway Street; and to be

The ﬁrst edition. Very rare.
“Mary . . says you saw her writings about the other day, and she
wishes you should know what they are. She is doing for Godwin’s bookseller
twenty of Shakespeare's plays, to be made into children’s tales. Six are all
ready done ‘by her, to-wit, the ‘Tempest,’ the 'Winter's Tale,’ ‘Midsummer
Night’s Dream,’ ‘Much ado About Nothing,’ ‘The Two Gentlemen of Verona,’
and ‘Cymbeiine.’ ‘The Merchant of Venice’ is in forwardness. I have done
'Othello’ and ‘Macbeth,’ and mean to do all the tragedies. I think it will be
popular among the little people, besides money. It’s to bring sixty guineas.
Mary has done them capitally, I think you’d think.”--Lamb to Manning.
“Mary is just stuck fast in ‘All’s Well that Ends Well.’ She complains
of having to set forth so many female characters in boy's clothes. She be-
gins to think Shakespeare must have wanted—imagination! I. to encourage
her (for she often falnts in the prosecution of her great work), ﬂatter her
with telling her how well such a play is done. But she is stuck fast, and I
have been obliged to promise to assist her."—Lamb to Wordsworth.
“Those ‘Tales from Shakespeare‘ are near coming out and Mary has
lbegun a new work.”—Larnb to Manning. ‘

Volumes. 2 vols., crown 8vo, very handsomely bound in full dark
green levant, elaborate gold tooling on back and sides of stems,
flowers, etc., gilt edges, by ware. 1823-33. $200.00.
First editions of both series. The ﬁrst series is the desirable earliest
issue, before the addition of the extra line “and 13 Waterloo Place,” to the
publisher's address on title, and without the half title, the second issue
having a half title, and the ﬁrst no half title. This was only known to col-
lectors a few years ago and created some dismay at the time of its discovery
among owners of the second issue. A very beautiful specimen of Riviere’s
binding both with leather wrappers and in boxes.

\
An excessively rare volume, containing twenty pieces. The titles of
Lamb’s pieces are as follows :—“The Old Familiar Faces," “To Charles
Lloyd," “Written on the day of Aunt’s Funeral," “Written a year after
Events,” “Written soon after the preceding Poem,” "Written on Christmas
Day 1797," and “Composed at Midnight.” Very few letters of this period
seem to have been preserved. Although it was published the same year
as “Rosamund Gray” it was probably issued before that work as in a list
of writings which Lamb wrote out in 1834 he gives “Blank Verse” (with
C. Lloyd) as the ﬁrst of his books.

First Edition. 2 vols., crown 8vo, half roan, UNCUT edges, pre-
served in a double compartment levant morocco drop-case, ﬁnely
fashioned like a book, rare. Bristol, 1798. $125.00.
A ﬁction with a moral, relating to the state of concubinage, and probably
occasioned by Godwin’s writings. Dedicated to Charles Lamb, who was at,
the date, only 23 years old. This romance is supposed to be a revelation of
the circumstances of the ill-starred union between Coleridge and Miss Fricker
and to give a picture of their early married life.

Shade of Elliston" (pp. 554-9); “Lines suggested by a sight of Waltham
Cross" (p. 59); and two papers, "Peter's Net" (pp. 25-9 and 137-42); Ten~

two other poetical pamphlets, of minor interest, one of which con-
tains a 'very beautifle nipple portrait. In 1 vol., 8vo, contemp.
tree calf. Carli-sle, 1795. $30.00.
Allibone gives date of ﬁrst edition as London, 1796. It was about this
time that the friendship between Lloyd, Lamb, Coleridge, and Southey com-
menced. On pp. 36-38 is printed a song, entitled “Rosamund Gray.” Lamb's
story (in prose) with the same title was not published until 1798. Several
of the poems relate to the Lake country. A song on pp. 39-41, with the re-
frain, “Well-a-day," is curious as striking the same chord of simple folk-
speech as Wordsworth. Much additional interest is attached to this volume
from the inscriptions upon the title-page, in Lloyd’s autograph: “Charles
Lloyd to M. W. Clare. F. S.”

436 LEVER (Charles) Complete Works. The Splendid
Library Edition, edited by his Daughter, beautifully printed with
large type, upon good paper, and illustrated with excellent im-
pressions of all the famous old Plates by “Phiz,” Leech, and
Cruikshank; the Edit-ion de Luxe, further illustrated with a per-
trait of Chas. Lever, and 68 interesting plates of the scenery and
places mentioned in the works; also 104 of the old plates by
“Phiz” specially hand-painted; also inserted in the ﬁrst vol. is an
Autograph Letter of the author, signed in full. 37 vols., 8vo, full
bound in light brown Polished calf, gilt backs tooled with sham-
rocks, gold lines on sides with corner flenrons of shamrocks, gilt
edges, by Zaehns-dorf, a very ﬁne set. London, 1897-99. $200.00.
For this handsome edition de luxe special titles were printed and illum-
inated by hand, and the issue was strictly conﬁned to 100 copies, each num-
bered, this set being No. 2. It is in every way the best library edition of
Lever's works ever published, containing everything he ever wrote, whilst
the paper, print, plates, size, weight, and binding are entirely satisfactory.
The extra plates were expressly made for these 100 copies only, and as they
consist of actual views of the scenery and places described, they are doubly
interesting, because the old plates by ‘Phiz,’ etc., depict only the striking inci-
dents and various characters. The autograph letter is written on a quarto
sheet, and is signed in full. Altogether this issue is most handsome, suitable
for any library, however ﬁne, and as only 100 sets exist it is obvious that the
opportunity to secure one can only ocur very occasionally.

trait Of the Queen of Navarre, the whole of the 73 full-page en-
gravings designed by S. Freudenberg (all on Japanese vellum)
and I 50 charming Head and Tail pieces by Dunker. 5 vols., 8vo,
prettin bound in new half dark blue morocco gilt, gilt tops, UN—
CUT, very nice set. London, Privately printed for the Society
of English Bibliophilists. London, 1894. $27.50.
The only genuine unexpurgated translation on the market. In so large
a number of stories, with so great a variety of subjects, it cannot but be the
case that there is a considerable diversity of tone, but the company of the
Heptameron are the latest representatives, at ﬁrst hand, and with no delib-
erate purpose of presentment of the mediaevai conception of gentlemen and
ladies who ﬁeeced the time goldenly. The engravings by Freudenberg which
-accompany this edition are exquisitely beautiful.

454 MILTON (J .) PARADISE REGAIN’D, a Poem in IV Books;
to which is added Sam-son Agonistes; the Extremely Rare First
Edition, and in the most perfect state of preservation. Small 8vo,
newly and very handsomely full bound in the best dark blue levant
morocco, crushed and polished, tooling on sides and back of a
very pretty and antique pattern, gold edges, by Riviere. Fine
state. London, printed by J. M. Starkey at Mitre in Fleetstreet,
near Temple-Bar, 1671. $175.00.
Such a ﬁne copy as this seldom occurs for sale, and the lapse of every
year is making the occasion rarer. It is quite perfect, containing the rare
leaf bearing the Ofﬁcial licence for printing the book; the equally rare leaf
of errata in 'both poems; and the separate title-page to “Samson Agonistes,"
BOme or all of which leaves are missing from most of the copies now extant.
In importance the work is ,second only to “Paradise Lost,” and it has been
said that Milton preferred it to that work. The leaf bearing the official
licence is, in this case. more interesting than usual, for'it is a record of a
statutory obligation which roused Milton's indignation, and which inspired
him to write that wonderful masterpiece Of prose, “Areopagitica,” which is
an appeal .to Parliament to abandon its intention to appoint an ofﬁcial censor,
and thus destroy the perfect freedom of the Press.

484 PASTON LETTERS, A. D. 1422-1509, edited by J. Gaird-
ner, new complete library edition, in which the whole of the let-
ter-s are now for the ﬁrst time chronologically arranged, with
Index to the whole and the Introduction thoroughly revised, 6
vols., square 8vo, bound in art linen, to}? edges gilt, handsomely
printed on pure rag paper. London, 1904. $18.00.
The period Of the letters is the close of the Middle Ages, the time Of the
revival of learning, the discovery Of America, the invention Of printing; still
(though ﬁfty years later) we are moving in the glittering scenery of
Chaucer’s “Canterbury Tales" we are still in the days of chivalry and
feudalism. From the comprehensive nature of the correspondence
we are able to form a true Judgment of the social state of Eng-
land at the time. In the wide demense of history and literature there are
many noble pastimes, but there are none with the peculiar interest of that
which Mr. Gairdner has done so much to open up to the enjoyment and en-
lightenment Of the public. “The Paston Letters,” the re-publication of which
in a library edition is now commenced. have no parallel in any literature.
Their discovery and illumination have the interest that attaches to the dis-
covery of Chaldean cylinders or memorials Of the third dynasty. It is the
revelation of an Old-forgotten century whose formal history is a mere con-
fused record Of Red and White Rose Kings who waded through slaughter to
the throne—a century when the nation seemed to have sunk back into bar-
'barism, and the new day which Chaucer and Wycliff had announced vanished
back into the night. It is the human interest which constitutes the charm
of these memorials—the historical which constitutes their chief value.

Author. 2 vols., large 8vo, newa bound by Riviere in full pol-
ished calf extra, gilt tops, UNCUT. William Miller, 1804. $27.50.
This author must have been a man of talent. At one time he was a gen~
tleman of independent means. His fortune was somehow lost, and he took
to landscape gardening as a profession. It is a long cry from gardening to
the writing of essays, poems, and comedies, but it is one he appears to have
easily accomplished, and passed therefrom to the designing of pictures for
his books. In his “Observations on the Drama" he tells us that one of his
comedies was “read with pleasure by Mr. Burke, and commended by Sir
Joshua Reynolds.”

A PROOF COPY.
505 ROGERS (Samuel) ITALY, a poem, illustrated with 55
exquisite plates, by Stothard and Turner, engraved on steel by
F inden, Goodall, Wallis, and other eminent engravers. First Edi-
tion,“and one of the very early issues in which the plates are bril—
liant proof impressions of the vignettes before any letters. 8vo,
full dark blue morocco, elaborate gold tooling on back and side,
gilt edges. London, 1830. $30.00.
This lovely volume is universally recognized as the choicest specimen
of English line engraving, and as it is extremely improbable that this beau-
tiful art, now entirely lost, will ever be revived, this volume will always
be of the greatest interest. This particular copy is of especial importance,
as it will be noticed it is one Of the much coveted “Proof” issue, with the
misplaced plate at page 88. Moreover, the plates are in clean, unspotted
state, and the difference in beauty between the plates Of unspotted and spot-
ted copies is so great that it cannot be exaggerated.

first verses and the ﬁrst prose published by Rossetti, including the First Edi-

Sleep,’ ‘From the Cliffs-Noon’ (afterwards called ‘Sea Limits’), ‘The Casiion,’
‘Pax Vobis’ and ‘Hand and Soul,’ besides six sonnets; also contributions from

for Private Circulation, 1857. $80.00.
The very rare first edition; only few copies printed. Sir Hugh the Heron
was printed in 1843 for the young D. G. rRossetti by his grandfather. The
famous but short-lived periodical “The Germ” contained contributions by
him, as did some other periodicals. This “Sister Helen," however, seems to
'be his second book. The person for whom it was printed was the Rev. Wil-
iilam Fulford, who had been the editor of the defunct “Oxford and Cambridge
agazine."

rocco, elaborately gilt with a border in the Derome style, gilt
back, gilt edges. London, Moxon, 1857. $16.00.
First edition of the Pre-Raphael-ite Tennyson, now scarce. Tennyson
and Moxon projected this edition, and it is believed to have been at the poet's
suggestion that the artists were chosen. The illustrations include the Lady
of Shalott, by Hunt and Rossetti; The Palace of Art (2), by Rossetti;
Mariana in the South, and Sir Galahad. by the same; Holman Hunt contri-
buted Oriana (2), Lady Godiva, The Beggar Maid. and two others; Millais
drew the pictures for Mariana, Dream of Fair Women (2), Dora (2), St.
Agnes Eve, Locksley Hall, and several others.
Rossetti's designs are fewer than the others by the Brotherhood owing
to his procrastination and the many corrections and alterations he made dur-
ing the engraving of the blocks, absolutely refusing to approve anything that
did not express exactly the idea conveyed by his drawing. As Rossetti’s
ant was distinguished by its independence of rules and conventionalities,
so may these illustrations of his the found not strictly adhering to the letter
of the text, but have to be considered as examples of the spirituality and
intensity of feeling which were the aim of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood
at their best period. Holman Hunt’s Lady of Shalott, Rossetti's -St. Cecilia,
and Sir Galahad, the sweetness and simplicity of Millais’ St. Agnes and Ed-
ward Gray stand forth prominently among the illustrations.
Other artists were Stantield, Mulready, Horsley, etc. Thomas Woolner
contributed the portrait of Tennyson.

full polished calf, gilt tops, UNCUT, a ﬁne copy with brilliant im-
pressions of the plates. London, Ackerman, 1823. $35.00.
This is the pretty minature edition, for which the plates were especially
re-engraved one-third of the original size and coloured by hand from Row-
landson’s larger designs. It was issued by the same publisher (Ackerman)
as the larger edition, and was so popular with all classes and ages of the
public that clean and perfect copies of the ﬁrst issue are now most diﬂicult
to obtain. It was reprinted several times, and the plates suffered the inevi-
table deterioration; so a collector should be careful to obtain the original.
The set here offered is the original issue, complete and well bound.

print on Verso of title and last leaf]. London, Spottiswoodes and

stamped on side, gilt edges. $450.00.
The exceedingly rare First Edition.
This little volume was not published but merely printed in an edition
of ﬁfty copies for private circulation, and has now become the rara acts of
Ruskin literature. All the poems contained in the volume were written be-
tween the age of 14 and 26, and at the head of each poem is given the
author's age.
This copy is of particular interest as it bears the inscription in the auto-
graph of the author’s father, “To Lady Colquhoun, with the Author’s Father’s
very Kind Regards,” which justify the belief that the volume was printed at
the expense of Ruskin’s father, and for private circulation. The Harold
Pierce copy sold for $600.00.
This copy is in beautiful condition, with the original gilt cloth and
its side stamp of a gilt lyre as bright as on the day of issue.

$100.00.
The Harold Pierce set sold for $200.00 at auction.
A beautiful clean copy of the rare first edition of the finest of all
Ruskin's books, and one which, if only for the artistic merits of its engrav-
ings, must always command a high price. The ﬁrst two volumes do not
contain any plates, and were revised, extended, and improved by the author.
In this set, vol. 1 is the 6th, and vol. 2, the 4th of this revised and im-
proved edition. The other volumes containing the plates, which can never
be improved, are all first editions.

Fine Copy, royal 8vo. 1849. $25.00.
The Harold Pierce copy sold for $55.00.
Very rare in this condition, and should be secured. Of this edition Pro-
fessor Ruskin says, “The quite First Edition will always, I venture to say,
bear a. high price in the market; for its Etchings were not only, every line
of them, by my own hand. but bitten also by myself, with savage careless-
ness, out of which disdain some of the plates came into effects both right
and good for their purpose, and will, I say, be always hereafter valuable.”
531 RUSKIN (J.) THE KING or THE GOLDEN RIVER, or
the Black Brothers, A Legend of Stiria. Iliustrated by‘Richard
Doy-le. First Edition, sq. post 8vo, newly bound in full polished
calf extra, gilt edges, by Riviere, with the original ornamental

First edition. Very rare. The French copy sold for $80.00 and the
Harold Pierce copy for $85.00. The King of the Golden River was written
to amuse a. little girl. and being a fairly good imitation of Grimm and Dick-
ens, mixed with a little true Alpine feeling of my own, has been rightly
pleasing to nice children—The Author.

Waverley Novels ever issued, and is a reprint Of the magnum opus of 1829-—
1832, with the addition of Mr. Lang’s valuable introductions and notes which
are discreetly separated from those of the author, and which are not notes

THE AUTHOR’S FAVOURITE EDITION.
546 SCOTT (Sir Walter) WAVERLEY NOVELS; a complete

best engravers of the day, from specially painted pictures by T ur-
ner, Lan-dseer, Wilkie, Mulready, Leslie, Inskipp, S-mirke, Cooper,

Stanﬁeld, Bonning-ton, and other famous painters; 48 very handy
and well-printed volumes, 12mo, newly and uniformly half bound
in nice half wine-colored calf, gilt backs and gilt tops, UNCUT, con-
tents lettered. VERY FINE AND PRETTY SET, WITH ALL THE
PLATES BRILLIANT IMPRESSIONS AND UNSPOTTED. Edinburgh,
Cadell, 1829-33. $100.00. ‘
This is the handiest edition ever published, and has always been the
“favourite” with the public. as well as with the author. The size of each
volume is small, measuring only 6% in. by 4 in., and yet the type is good;
and the best testimony to the beauty of the engravings is the fact that copies
of them appear in many of the editions published at the present time. The
impressions are, however, very much inferior to those of the original issue
as seen in a set like the one now Offered for sale, all of which are the earliest
impressions procura'ble. This edition appeared in monthly volumes, and for
it Scott thoroughly revised and polished the text, adding such notes as time
and further knowledge suggested. He died [1832] a few months before the
last volume of the Novels was printed, and consequently this edition re-
mains the ﬁrst complete and perfect edition, and the Standard text from
which all authorised editions have been and will be printed.

PEARE. Edited by William Aldi-s Wright, 40 vols., imperial 8vo,

handsomely bound in full dark green levant extra, elaborate gold
tooling on sides and back, gilt edges, by Riviere, in cardboard
case. London, C. and J. Ollier, 1820. $100.00.
This volume is decidedly one of the most important of the First Editions
of Shelley, not alone for the reason that it leads off with the “Prometheus
Unbound," but also because it issues to the light for the ﬁrst time other
poems, any one of which would have suﬁiced to render its author famous.
These are “The Sensitive Plant," “Ode to the West Wind," “To a Skylark,"
“Ode to Liberty,” “The Cloud,” etc.

564 SHELLEY AND BROWNING. Letters of Percy Bysshe
Shelley, with an Introductory Essay by Robert Browning. Small
8vo, in the original cloth, UNCUT. Fine clean copy. London,
.Moxon, 1852. $40.00.
Fine copy of the ﬁrst and only edition. The publication of these “let-
ters” disclosed one of the most ingenious literary forgeries of modern times.
Not only in the handwriting, but in other details, they were so carefully
executed that they deceived eminent experts. and Browning was induced
to write a lengthy introductory essay on the life and genius of Shelley. The
genuineness of the letters was ﬁrst called in question by Mr. F. T. Palgrave,
who saw the book at Tennyson’s house. and accidentally opened it at a
passage which he recognized as taken from an article contributed by his
father to the Quarterly Review. Little by little the network of fraud was
unravelled. The book was rigidly suppressed and the remaining copies were
destroyed, and, as only a few copies had got into circulation, it is now very
rare.

The result is a book of ﬁne literary ﬂavour, and a series of portraits of
admirable ﬁdelity and interest."—-Notcs and Queries.

First and only separate edition of Sheridan’s first work, published at
the age of twenty. Allibone says: 'In conjunction with his friend
H. Halhed he made translations of Theocritus (never- printed) and
of these they soon afterward added English versions (in verse) of the Love
Epistles of Aristenaetus. The latter have been recently published in the same
volume with (recent translations of) the Elegies of Proper-tins, the Satyricon
0f Petronius Arbiter, and the Kisses of Johannes Secundus. . . . The ﬁrm
also produced a play. . None of these, however, were given to the world,
save the Love Epistles, which were published in August, 1771. (See Nich-
ols’ Lit. Anec. VIII, 365)—published, but not sold, and great was the dis—
appointment of the youthful authors.’

12mo, original wrappers. London, 1866. $75.00.
Rare. The poem has been entirely dropped by its author and is not
included in any of his collected volumes. Neither is there any reason to
anticipate that it ever will be.
614 SWINBURNE (A. C.) ’THE QUESTION. A Poem.
(MDC'CCLXXXVII). First Edition. 12mo, pale green paper
wrappers. London, 1887. $65.00.
Twenty-ﬁve copies only are said to have been printed. The Question
has been dropped by its author and is not included in any of Mr. Swinburne’s
collected volumes and considering the controversial nature of the subject
treated, it is in the highest degree improbable that it will ever be revived.
It contains some bitter verses addressed to Mr. Gladstone.
615 SWINBURNE (Algernon Charles) DEAD LovE. First
Edition. Crown 8vo, brick red coloured paper wrappers, with the
title page reproduced upon the front. London, 1864. $60.00.

original cloth, UNCUT, with the eight pp. of advertisements. Lon-
don, E. M 0.ron, 1866. $60.00.
The exceedingly scarce ﬁrst edition, with the suppressed title-page.
Very ﬁne copy. “When the 'Poems and Ballads’ appeared they were met
by such a whirlwind of abuse from critics, whose professional morality
was supposed to have been shame-stricken, that the publishers explained
that they were unaware of the nature of the poems they had laid before
the public, and suppressed the edition before it got into circulation. As
a consequence, the few copies that had been sold were eagerly sought after."

“It is in every way worthy of Mr. Swinburne’s high fame. In no prose
work can be found passages of keener poetry or more ﬁnished grace or more
impressive harmony. Strong, vigorous and musical, the style sweeps on
like a river.

Bells. First Edition. 8vo, cloth, UNCUT. London, 1880. $17.50.
This work which is now difﬁcult to procure, was published anonymously by
Swinburne. We believe the authorship has been acknowledged recently by
the poet in a letter -to a well known collector.
Swinburne’s parody of his own peculiarities of style (VII Nephelidia)
is exceedingly ﬁne. A copy sold at auction for £5.10.0.

“This is one of two copies—n0 more were printed—which were pub-
lished in May, 1889, to secure Lord Tennyson's copyright in “The Throstle."
"The present copy is the one which pased through the poet's hands, and
the corrections were made at Aldworth by the Hon. Hallam Tennyson. In
September, 1889, the poem was given to the public by the Associated Lit-
erary Press. A photograph of Lord Tennyson’s holograph is added. Ed-
mund Gosse."
“Nov. 1, 1889.”
653 TENNYSON (Lord) THE PROMISE 01? MAY. 12mo,
original light brown paper cover, UNCUT. London, printed for
the Author. 1882. $350.00.
The excessively rare privately printed ﬁrst edition, but 11 copies known.
The last of the privately printed plays and after “Becket” the rarest. It
was acted for a few weeks in 1882, but was not regularly published until it
was included in the volume “Locksley Hall Sixty Years After,” in 1887. Ex-
tremely scarce. Priced by a New York bookseller at $550.00.
654 TENNYSON (Alfred Lord) THE CUP. 8vo, original
wrappers, UNCUT. London, printed for the Author.‘ 1&8}. $300.00.
The excessively rare privately printed ﬁrst edition. The work was not
issued for general publication till 1884, when it was included in “The Falcon
and the Cup." Speaking of it in his Bibliography of Tennyson, Richard
Herne Shepherd says: “ ‘The Cup’--a Classical Drama—was produced at
the Lyceum, in 1881. Neither of these plays (The Falcon and the Cup)
had .been published at the time; and it therefore seems probable that a small
edition of both was privately printed. for the use of the actors, etc. I merely
hazard this as a conjecture, but do not possess special information on the
subject; still less did I ever see or hear of a copy of either." Extremely rare,
being one of a very few copies which were privately printed for the author’s
use. Priced by a New York bookseller at $650.00.
655 TENNYSON (Lord) THE FALCON. First Edition.
12mo, original blank buff paper covers, UNCUT. London, print-
ed for the Author, 1879. $300.00.
This play was acted by the Kendals for sixty-seven nights in December,
1879, and in the early part of 1880. It was not published until 1884. This
is one of a very small private issue printed for copyright, or for the use of
the actors. Shepherd surmised that there might have been a private edition
for this purpose but he says that he never saw or heard of a copy. In this
private issue the names of the actors are not inserted in the Dramatis
Personae. Priced by a New York bookseller at $500.00.
656 TENNYSON (Alfred, Lord) POEMS. The exceeding-
ly scarce First Edition. 2 vols., 12mo, in the original boards, UN-
CUT, with paper labels, remarkably ﬁne clean coPy, very rare in
this condition. Lon-don, Moxon, 1842. $125.00
Beautiful copy of the ﬁrst collected edition. Tennyson's muse was silent
for nine years, when suddenly these two volumes appeared. with such ex-
quisite lyrics as “Claribel,” “The Lady of Shalott,” “Lady Clara Vere de
Vere," “The May Queen," “A Dream of Fair Women," and others, to de-
light the public. It is interesting to note how much that was best of the
Poet’s writings appeared ﬁrst in these two volumes.

657 TENNYSON (Lord) CARMEN SAECULARE. An Ode.
First Edition. London, printed for private distributi0n_,'1887.
12mo, original printed stiff paper covers, gilt edges. $165.00.
This was a “Jubilee Ode” written in honor of Queen Victoria. It was
published in Macmillan’s Magazine for April, 1887. under the title “Carman
Saeculare An Ode,” in honor of the Jubilee of Queen Victoria. The magazine
issue was apparently an earlier text as there are several points of differ-
ence. This separate reprint was unknown to Shepherd. Mr. Wise states
that only twenty copies were printed. When included in the "Demeter"
volume in 1889 the title of the poem was again altered to “On the Jubilee
of Queen Victoria.” Priced by a New York bookseller at $400.00.
658 TENNYSON (Lord) POEMS. Illustrated by Edward
Lear, wt-h Lord Tennyson's autograph. 4to, half morocco, gilt
top, UNCUT. London. I880. $45.00.
Only 100 copies printed, all on Japanese paper. Certiﬁed and signed by
Lord Tennyson in autograph. Very scarce. The Poems are “To Edward
Lear on his travels in Greece." The Place of Art. The Daisy, with an Intro-
duction by Franklin Lushington. The illustrations are twenty-two Land—
scapes by Lear, portrait of Tennyson by G. F. Watts, R. A., and portrait of
Lear, twenty-four in all, reproduced in Goupilgravure by Boussod, Valadon &
Co., by whom both plates and text were printed at Asnieres, near Paris.
Through many years Lear set apart a selected series of designs, which
he labeled Landscape illustrations of Tennyson of which these here published
are a sample. They are Lear’s Sermons on texts taken from Tennyson’s-
Introduction. This is got up with a view of carrying out to some extent a
long cherished dream of Lear‘s never realized of associating in a larger
publication his name with that of the Poet‘s.
659 TENNYSON (Alfred, Lord) POEMS, by Alfred T enny-
son. First Edition. Interleaved copy, commending itself to the
Tennyson Collector and Student as one of striking importance.
having upon the interleaving over 600 lines consisting of new ad-
ditions, entirely re-written passages, emendations, transposed
lines, etc., with a large number of notes of suppressed poems, pas-
sages and lines, verbal and literal corrections, etc., not counted
in the above. The whole very beautifully 'written in the auto-
graph of the late Mr. Herne Shepherd, the enthusiastic and most
accurate bibliographer of Tennyson, Dickens, Thackeray, Swin-
burne, Ruskin, etc. Crown 8vo. superbly bound in full crushed
levant morocco, with elaborate doublures in inlaid coloured mo-
rocco, richly tooled “en petits fers,” by Samblancx-Weckesser,
edges gilt. London, Moxon, 1833. $75.00.
An exceedingly interesting volume; and as useful to the student as it is-
beautiful in condition.
660 TENNYSON (Lord) THE PASSING 0F ARTHUR. I6mo,
original printed Paper cover. London, 1884. $25.00.
Separately printed for some unknown purpose and very scarce. It was
ﬁrst published in the second volume of poems in 1842.
661 TENNYSON (Lord) IN MEMORIAM. First Edition..
12mo, original brown cloth, UNCUT, very ﬁne copy, scarce. Lon-
don, 1850. $30.00.
The writing of “In Memoriam" had been begun as far back as 1833,
immediately after the death of young Arthur Henry Hallam, to whom the
poem is a most noble tribute.

.A remarkably ﬁne copy Of the Fir-st Edition, Earliest Issue, with
the short title “Vanity Fair” on p. I, in “Rustic” type, the Steyne
woodcut at p. 336. 8vo, in the 20 original parts, uncut (issued

closed in a full levant morocco drop case, made like a book.

Exceedingly rare in the orig. parts, and especially with the wrappers
all original and in ﬁne state as in this set. This. Thackeray’s ﬁrst novel
issued in parts, is extremely scarce in original state, with all the parts gen-
uine ﬁrst issue. Only a few copies of the earlier numbers were printed,
so that, as the demand increased while the late numbers were appearing,
it was necessary to reprint some numbers. The advertising matter on the
covers of these reprinted numbers. as well as the inserted leaves of adver—
tisements, differ from those of the genuine ﬁrst issues. To ﬁll up imperfect
sets, the publishers seem to have printed covers having the space of the num-
ber blank, to be ﬁlled in with a pen.

8vo, ﬁne clean copy in original cloth. the gilt lettering in ovals,
UNCUT. London, H. Cunningham, 1841. $100.00.
Fine copy. Of great rarity in this state. “This book, like most of
Thackeray's early works, did not sell well at ﬁrst, but after he had made
his name as the author of ‘Vanity Fair,’ the stock was looked up, and a
new title page printed, which refers to the writer as the author of ‘Vanity
Fair,’ etc., and bears no date. Care must therefore be taken that the title
corresponds exactly with that set out above. It is now one of the rarest
and most sought after of Thackeray's works.”—C. Plumptre Johnson.

1840. $75.00.
The very rare ﬁrst edition, with all the full-page illustrations. Thack-
eray’s ﬁrst book, and very interesting for this reason» also for its being so
entirely his work. having been not only written, but illustrated by him. It
is curious, like chkens' ﬁrst books. "Sketches by Boz." Thackeray’s ﬁrst
book was published by the same printer, John Macrone, 1840.

1852. $35.00.
One of the most difﬁcult of the Original Issues of Thackeray in original
cloth, uncut, and especially in such ﬁne state as above copy. This copy
contains the half-titles, which read “Esmond, a Story of Queen Anne's
Reign, by W. M. Thackeray, Author of ‘Vanity Fair,’ '.Pendennis,’ etc.,"

THE FIRST TRANSLATION OF THIS CLASSIC IN ENGLISH VERSE.
In his translation of Virgil, Douglas is on quite untrodden ground. He
nas the merit of being the ﬁrst classical translator in the language, and
he seems to have set his own example by working at passages of Ovid, of
which no specimens exist. He. must have done the whole work, prologues and
all, together with a translation of the supplementary book by Maphmus
Vegius, within the short space of eighteen months. He writes in heroic
couplets, and his movement is conﬁdent. steadfast, and regular. In several
of the prologues he reaches his highest level as a poet. He shows a strong
and true love for external nature, at a time when such a devotion was not
specially fashionable; he displays an easy candour in reference to the opin-
ions Of those likely to criticise him: he proves that he can at will (as in
the prologue to Book VIII.) change his style for the sake of effect; and in
accordance with .his theme he can be impassioned, reflective, or devout.

THE LETTER—IN FULL.
“Mount Vernon, Dec. 12, ,1788.
“Dear Sir,
“If you desire a more formal pedigree than the enclosed, return the
one ent and another shall be framed by the time you send for Magnolia.
When a bill of sale shall also be forwarded. And, as you have it not in
116 WALTER M. HILL

your power (for want of the papers) to pass a deed of conveyance to me
for the 5000 Acres of Land in Kentucky—agreeably to your Memorandum—
I should be glad to receive some instrument ( in Case of accidents) by which
I may establish my claim to it.
“Your intention to decline offering vourself for the Westmoreland dis-
trict since you have received advice of Mr. Page’s doing it, is an unequivocal
proof, if proof was wanting of your friendly disposition, towards the New
Government; but whether it is the most effectual way of serving it is another
question. Whether Mr. Page’s interest or yours, is best in that district I
am not sufﬁciently informed to decide— But one thing I am sure of and
that is that these matters (to stand upon equal ground with those who
are opposing the Constitution) ought to be the result of previous consulta-
tion and arrangement
With sincere and affectionate reg.
I am ever
Yours
GE. WASHINGTON”
Addressed also in Washington’s autograph, to :—
“Col H. Lee
Alexandria
Favored by
Doctr. La Mayeur”
The following particulars respecting Colonel H. Lee (to whom Wash-
ington's letter is addressed) are copied from Allibone:
“LEE, HENRY. (1756-1818). Lieutenant-Colonel Commandant of the Par-
tisan Legion during the American War, a native of Virginia, graduated at
Princeton College in 1773: was elected a member of Congress in 1786, and
again in 1799, and in 1792 was made Governor of Virginia. He gained hon-
ourable distinction in every post to which he was called."
Allibone goes on to enumerate the works from Col. Lee’s pen, the ﬁrst
one being an “Oration on General George Washington" [1800].
“THE 5000 ACRES or LAND IN KENTUCKY. mentioned in Washington’s
letter, appear in the Schedule, of property appended to the Will, which
schedule as well as the will was in the autograph of Gen. Washington. It
includes several considerable landed estates in various states: Kentucky
showing only these 5000 acres, which the proprietor valued at 10,000 dollars.
Washington also schedules some property in Alexandria (Va.), where
Col. Lee was located at the time this most interesting letter was written.

The extremely rare earliest issue of the First Edition of this celebrated
book. This issue preceded Whistler’s own edition (usually called the “ﬁrst
edition") by several months, and is of special interest, on account of the mat-
ter it contains which was omitted in Whistler's edition, while its extreme
rarity is due to the whole edition, with the exception of a few copies, being
destroyed. It sold for $30 at auction last year.

716 WILDE (Oscar) THE HARLOT HOUSE, a Poem, un-
doubtedly Oscar Wilde’s ﬁnest and most imaginative poem; ac-
companied by ﬁne weirdly powerful and beautiful drawings, the
work of Althea Gyles', who has completely entered into and ﬁnely
interpreted the spirit Of the author, and whose designs met with
his unqualiﬁed approval when they were shewn to him shortly

The exceedingly rare First Edition, in absolutely ﬂawless condition.
The edition usually sold as the ﬁrst is, like this one, printed by T. & T.

book are accompanied with a single sheet reading: “Only 100 copies issued
for Private Circulation. Subscription price, £1, Is. The Priest and the
Acolyte, by Oscar Wilde. Privately printed, London, 1894.” The truth of
this statement, however, has always seemed improbable. Wilde denied any
connection with the story, and Mr. Robert Ross has recently stated that it
was written by the editor of “The Chameleon” (in which magazine it ori-
ginally appeared). Rare.

NEW PUBLICATIONS
MADELINE, by Roswell Field. printed from Caslon type,
hand-set, and limited to 250 numbered copies on Van Gelder
hand-made paper, and the type distributed. The title page, in
red and black, engraved by Ralph Fletcher Seymour. 8vo, boards,
with paper label. Chicago, 1906. $3.50.
Most of the edition has already been subscribed for and orders
should be sent in immediately.
“Madeline” treats of the notable friendship and conﬁdential
discourses of two book-lovers, Sir Dives and Master Pauper, and
relates with due appreciation and sympathy the manner in which
Master Pauper rescued Sir Dives from the gods of commerce,
and how the two friends labored together for their own impulse
Of bookishness and for the happiness of others less fortunately
situated. The love Imotive is supplied by the passion of Master
Pauper and Madeline, the Poor Relation, and to this trio of inter-
esting characters the narrative is almost wholly conﬁned. That
same delightful atmosphere of bibliophilism which made “The
Bondage of Ballinger” a source of exquisite enjoyment to collec-
tors and appreciative readers is characteristically maintained in
Mr. Field’s story.

THE NATIONAL EDITION
OF THE WORKS OF
CHARLES DICKENS
Including upwards of One Hundred and Thirty Articles
NOW COLLECTED FOR THE FIRST TIME
HIS LETTERS, SPEECHES, PLAYS AND POEMS,
TOGETHER WITH
FORSTER’S LIFE OF THE AUTHOR
The pictures, numbering upwards of 850, comprise all the Original Illustra-
tions, with a complete series of Portraits, Addittonal Illustrations, Facsimiles
and Reproductions of Handwritings, many of which have NOT 8mm INCLUDED
in any COLLECTED EDITION of the novelist’s works; the whole printed
upon INDIA PAPER, and mounted on Plate Paper.
STRICTLY LIMITED TO 750 SET! FOR ENGLIID IND AMERICA
Complete in Forty Volumes. Royal 8120.
Price $3.50 net per Volume
THE National Edition of the Works of Charles Dickens is designed to rank
as the ﬁnal and deﬁnitive editon of his works, and to serve as a. worthy
memorial to the connection which has subsisted for over seventy years be-
tween the ﬁrm of Chapman & Hail and the immortal memory of Charles Dick-
ens. It is by far the most handsome edi-tion of Dickens ever placed upon the
market, and being strictly limited in number is likely to take its place in a
very short time among those treasures ot the booklover which change hands
at highly enhanced prices. The edition is being printed .by Messrs. T. & A.
Constable, of Edinburgh, His Majesty’s Printers, in a type newly cast for the
purpose, upon pure rag paper of the highest quality.
THE TEXT.—-The text used is that which was corrected by Charles Dick- ‘
ens himself in the last two years of his life, and therefore contains all the
copyright emendations which he made when the volumes passed for the last
time through his hands. The edition contains all the collected papers from
whatever source that seemed worthy of permanent association with the name
of their author—from “The Examiner," “Daily News," “Household Words,”
“All the Year Round,” over 130 in all—the most notable of these being all
Dickens's contributions -to “Household Words," some ninety in number, which
have been identiﬁed for the ﬁrst time by indisputable evidence.
THE ILLUSTRATIONS—As regards the choice of illustrations, the Pub—
lishers' plan has been to include only those pictures which were drawn for
their editions during the life of the author, and which may therefore be held
to have received his personal approbation. Under this arrangement they are
able to reproduce for the ﬁrst time in a Collected Editon a, number of illus-
trations not usually associated with the novels, and the utmost care has been
taken to do justice to the artists’ workmanship. The original illusraitions are
printed from a duplicate set of the steel. plates, on the best India paper and
mouned on plate paper—a process which gives a greatly reﬁned value to the

“Sir Joshua Reynolds was on very many accounts one of the most mem-

praise of the elegant arts to the other glories of his country. . . . To
be such a painter he was a profound and penetrating philosopher. . . The
loss of no man of his time can be felt with more sincere, genuine, and
unmixed sorrow. . . . He is always the same man: the same philosophi—
cal. the same artist-like critic, the same sagacious observer, with the
same minuteness without the smallest degree of triﬂing.”—Edmund Burke.

This is the valuable “Tudor Translation Series" edition, and it has been
out of print almost since publication, and is now rapidly becoming very
scarce. It was first published in 1566, and is of great literary interest on

the first English translation of the New Testament, by William Tyndale.
This book ﬁrst appeared from the press of Peter Schoeifer, at Worms, in
1526(1’) and was reprinted at least 15 times in the next 10 years. Not-
withstanding the fact that it was introduced into England in the face of
steady persecution which ﬁnally hunted down the translator and burnt
him at the stake in 153-6, the sale of Testaments and Bibles increased to
an extent wholly unknown in any other country.

“Many a time has the Caxton 'Morte D’Arthur' been reprinted, but surely
never since its beginning has it had a more admirable setting than is
now given it. It is a pleasure to merely handle the handsome quarto,
with its cover of drab and gold. its quaint decorations and illustrations,
its rough wide-margined paper and its clear .bold typography. He who
reads Malory for the first time is always enviable; but he is thrice lucky
if he so reads him in such an edition as this.”—St. James Gazette. Only

gilt top, UNCUT. $10.00. 7
An account of Chicago (then Fort Dearborn) and the Middle West, a
half century ago, by a member of the Kinzie family which was so
inﬂuential in the early history of that section. Mrs. Kinzie's narrative

1833. giving an account of the Indian troubles in her own time and also
much information about the early history of the country. Although
written in an easy, conversational style, and with some inaccuracies, it
is one of the best authorities for a history of that period.

don, 1797. 25.00.
This volume is of very special interest to collectors of first editions of
Charles Lamb’s or Coleridge's works. It is the ﬁrst work that bears
Charles Lamb's name on the title page, and it is, therefore. the volume
which introduced him to the world as an author. Some of the poems
appeared in the ﬁrst edition (1796), but only Coleridge’s name appeared
on the title page of that edition. For this second edition many new
poems by the three authors were written. and a new preface by Coler-
idge announces, inter alia. “He (Charles Lamb) has now communicated
to me a complete collection of his poems, and. my friend Charles Lloyd
has contributed every poem of his.” The long dedication (blank verse)
to Rev. George Coleridge also appears in this edition for the ﬁrst time.

A volume of Pieces in Prose and Verse, which contains thirty-nine con-
tributions by Landor (one on the death of Charles Lamb and another
addressed to Mary Lamb), four by Leigh Hunt, and one by Augustus
Hare. The List of Contents has the name or initials of the writer of
nearly every contribution written against it. and there are a few MS.
notes and corrections in the same handwriting. The volume is dedi-
cated by Jos. Ablett to Mrs. A-blett. Llanbedr Hall, Denbighshire, who
states that “Many in this selection have appeared already in the ephem-
eral publications of the day," but also that there are “some never print-
ed before." Many of the poems are dated, and a. few have references
to the locality of Llanbedr, where apparently Landor was an honored
and familiar guest. In all probability this volume alone contains several
of Landor’s poems and the written notes are all that remain to show
which of the unpublished pieces are his.

notices, and the many rude and artless ballads of forgotten .bards, famil-
iar to Burns in his earliest years, and which subsequently served him
as models for some of his best lyrical pieces. Copies so well bound,
and in such ﬁne state as this one, are very scarce.

“'hiie an exuberance of elegant and expensive ornaments derived from
fancy has from time to time been published to illustrate the works of
Shakspeare, it may appear rather extraordinary that so little attention
has hitherto been paid to the countenances of his real character and the
scenery of the different places in which their chief exploits were per-
formed. This work is an assemblage of portraits and views appropriat-
ed to the whole series of the authors—Historical Dramas.

31. $1.25.
Probably the ﬁnest piece of work of its kind ever attempted Written
while Wilde was a prisoner. Though the author’s code of morality was
a long way from being ideal, he left food for reﬂection for all of us

Bloom well in prison air,

That wastes and withers there."

“Never was such a close scrupulous ﬁdelity of rendering associated with such

the most ﬁnished manner by Finden, after drawings by I.
M. W. Turner, Clarkson, Stanﬁeld and others. \ First edie
tion, with brilliant impressions of the plates, all of which
are entirely unspotted, 17 vols., 12mo, in the original cloth,
gilt, UNCUT, a very beautiful set. London, Murray, 1832-33.
$30.00.
The prettiest edition ever issued, and the plates in this, the original, issue are
gems of the engraver’s art, and vastly superior to those of the many reprints cf
.it. The difﬁculty of procuring a set of this issue, with the plates uns tted,
and the binding in such remarkably clean and fresh condition is only nown
to those who have tried to get one, and no one particular on those points should
miss the opportunity here presented. “The handsomest, pleasantest, and alto—
gether the most distinguished edition of Byron the world has yet seen . . . the
decorative and illustrative value of the frontispieces and vignette titles engraved
after Turner, Stanﬁeld and others, at a time when English line engravmg was
at its best, are in absolute keeping with the modesty, sobriety and self-restraint
of the editorial work." ‘
BYRON (Lord) The Poetical Works of. MURRAY’s
LARGE-TYPE LIBRARY EDITION, with Portrait. 6 vols., 8vo,
cloth, UNCUT. London, 1879. $9.00.
“If the ﬁnest poetry be that which leaves the deepest impression on the minds
of its readers, " ord Byron, we think, must be allowed to take precedence of all
his distinguished contemporaries: In force of diction and unextinguishable
energy of sentiment he clearly surpasses them all. “Words that breathe, and
thoughts that burn,’ are not merely the ornaments, but the common staple of
his poetry; and he is not inspired or impressive only in some happy passages,
but through the whole body and tissue of his composition.”--Lord Jeﬁrey, m
Edinburgh Review.

hand-colored frontispieces, illuminated title-pages, and nu-
merous full-page photogravure plates and etchings after
Le Roux and others, all on Japanese vellum. EDITION DE
LUXE, elegantly printed on superﬁne paper. 17 vols., 8vo,
half leather, (pub. at $60.00). Printed for Subscribers
Only, New York, 1903. $30.00. ' '
The only edition in English. The Tales and Short-Stories of De Maupassant
are without exception the very best things of their kind in existence,—the most
perfect and highly-ﬁnished specimens of what Lowell calls “that corPs-de-ballet
literature in which the most animal of the passions is made more temptingly
naked by a veil of French gauze.” His men are nineteenth-century disciples of
Casanova and the Vicomte ue Valmond, and his females (peasants and peeresses
alike) are all characteristic French women—sisters of Sapho and daughters of
the “Lady of the Camelias.” At the same time, in his treatment of therein-
tions of the sexes, De Maupassant is above all things truthful; his veracity is
- inexorable because of the rigorously impassive attitude which Flaubert taught
him to assume, and for those who like that sort of thing he has furnished an
unequalled series or psychic studies from the nude, set forth by “the best of
story-tellers since Boccaccio wrote down the tales he heard from women’s lips.”

“Sparkling with wit, teeming with lively anecdote and delectable gossip, and
full of sound anu discreet views of persons and things.” “Madame D’Arblay
lived to be a classic. All those whom we have been accustomed to revere as
intellectual patriarchs seemed children when compared with her, for Burke had
sat up all night to read her writings, and Johnson had pronounced her superior
to Fielding, when Rogers was still a schoolboy, and Southey still in petticoats.
Her Diary is written in her earliest and best manner, in true woman’s English,
clear, natural and lively. It ought to be consulted by every person who wishes
to be well acquainted with the history of our literature and of our manners.”

Perhaps no name of modern times is productive of so many pleasant associa-
tions as that of “Horace Walpole,” and certainly no name was ever more inti-
mately connected with so many different subjects of importance in connection
with Literature, Art, Fashion, and Politics. The position of various members
of his family connecting Horace \Valpole with the Cabinet, the Court and the
Legislature—his own intercourse with those characters who became remarkable
for brilliant social and intellectual qualities—and his reputation as a Wit, a
Scholar, and a Virtuoso, cannot fail, it is hoped, to render his Memoirs equally
amusing and instructive.

A time set, and most rare. The plates in this work are very important, because
they are examples of Cruikshank’s serious style in which he worked little. They
consist of portraits of Napoleon, his wives, family, and generals. Views of his
battles, triumphal entries, a Facsimile of his Abdication, &c. he plates are
much larger than the book, and therefore have to be folded, with the almost
inevitable consequence that they are torn by accident, or so much worn at the
folds as to be rendered undesirable for the collector. In this copy all the plates
are mounted on ﬁne linen and are quite perfect, and the binding is sound and
handsome. Such a nice set only occurs for sale at distant intervals. Sets have
sold for £40 in London.

A MASQUE OF LOVE
BY
CHARLES ERSKINE SCOTT WOOD
NOW FIRST ISSUED
A POEM
In blank verse, in three parts, beautifully printed by hand on
paper made specially for the edition in Italy. Only 500 copies
have been printed at the Elston Press. 8vo, half buckram,
paper label, UNCUT, of which only 450 are offered for sale. $6.00.
In part one Hubert and Eve awake to the yearning of physical
love, Nature’s great passion, which has eternally and irresistibly
drawn the man and the woman together. While physical love—-
passionate love, it is the ideal of that greatest force in Nature,
standing naked, but not ashamed. To the bridal comes the
Earth in the persons of the South Wind, the Oak and the other
trees personiﬁed. It is Greek in its unconsciousness that there
is any shame in love. There is no thought of that impure purity
with which Christian monasticism and puritanism have cursed
our thought.
The second part portrays the tragedy of woman’s love forced
from her own control by the legal bond of marriage.
The third part is idyllic-Ma pastoral, through which runs Na-
ture’s peacewthe twitter of birds, the calm of skies, the hum of
bees, and is ﬁlled with that perfect love which is the mating of
minds as well as bodies—a blending of love and friendship
between the man and the woman.
A MASQUE OF LOVE is in no sense a tract—is not an essay.
In all respects it is a poem of singular beauty and force and
most sensitive feeling for nature—one which cannot fail to ﬁnd
a permanent place in the higher literature of this period.

Audubon’s matchless series of Bird Pictures was pronounced by Cuvier “the
most magniﬁcent monument that art ever raised to Ornithology.” This still re-
mains true, despite the numerous works since issued. The observation of Bird Life
was a passion with Audubon, even from his childhood. and after spending some
years as a student under the celebrated painter, David, in Paris, he returned home
and commenced a series of solitary excursions through the vast primeval forests,
where he spent the greater portion of many years. It was then he made these superb
drawings from life, comprising the whole range of American birds, from the tiniest
humming bird to the gigantic turkey; likewise the plants, trees and insects wherewith
he so appropriately accompanied them.

pronounced “perfectly reliable” covers 182 pages. and is based ~
on the ﬁeld observations of the most eminent ornithologists. The "

and ﬁgure, arranged according to the classiﬁcation which was
I prepared by Frank M. Chapman, and adopted by the American

vols., beautifully printed on ﬁne antique paper, bound in full
parchment gilt. Privately printed. London, 1894. $135.00.
A series of adventures wilder and more fantastic than the wildest of romances,‘
written down with the exactitude of a business diary; a view of men and cities from
Naples to Berlin, from Madrid and London to Constantinople and St. Petersburg:
the vie intime of the eighteenth century depicted by a man who today sat with
cardinals and saluted crowned heads, and tomorrow lurked in dens of proﬂigacy and
crime; a book of confessions enned without reticence and without penitence; a
record of forty years of “occult’ charlatanism, a collection of tales of successful im-
posture and of bonnes fortunes, of marvelous escapes, of transcendent audacit , told:
with the humor of Smollett and the delicate wit of Voltaire. Venice gives p cc to
the assembly rooms of Mrs. Cornley and the fast taverns of the London of 1760; we
pass from Versailles to the Winter Palace of St. Pctersburgh in the days of Cath-
erine, from the policy of the Great Frederick to the lewd mirth of strolling players,
and the presence chamber of the Vatican is succeeded by an intrigue in'a garret. It '
is, indeed, a new experience to read this history of a man who, refraining from-
nothing, has concealed nothing; of one who stood in the courts of Louis the Mag-
niﬁcent, before Madame de Pompadour and the nobles of the Ancient Regime, and
had an affair with an adventuress of Denmark Street, Soho, who was bound over to
keep the peace by Fielding, and knew Cagliostro. The friend of po 5 and kings
and noblemen, and of all the male and female rufﬁans and vagabon s of Europe;
abbe, soldier, charlatan, gamester, ﬁnancier, diplomatist, viveur, philosopher, virtuoso,
"chemist, ﬁddler, and butioon,” each of these and all of these was Giacomo Casanova,
Chevalier de Seingalt, Knight of the Golden Spur.

boards, with paper label. Chicago, 1906. $3.50.
“Madeline” treats of the notable friendship and conﬁdential discourses of two
book-lovers, Sir Dives and Master Pauper, and relates with due appreciation and
sympathy the manner in which Master Pauper rescued Sir Dives from the gods of
commerce, and how the two friends labored together for their own im ulse of
bookishness and for the happiness of others less fortunatel situated. he love
motive is supplied by the passion of Master Pauper and Ma eline, the Poor Rela~
tion, and to this trio of interesting characters the narrative is almost wholly
conﬁned. That same delightful atmosphere of bibliophilsim which made “The
Bondage of Ballinger” a source of exquisite enjoyment to collectors and appre-
ciative readers is characteristically maintained in Mr. Field’s story.

of philosophy, which is so usual with Mr. Lang, however light and gay other por-
tions of his article may be. He suggests that America should send a commissioner
around the world to judge as to the respective measure of beauty belonging to
each nation. Iiavc we not recently seen some modiﬁcation of this idea put into
practice? As to the home-article Mr. Lang thinks that it is to be found divided
between our young workwomen and shop-girls, and "the highest circles;" the
educated lrofessional middle class comparatively poorly endowed.

happily humorous paper on literary growling.

This is entitled “French Women in Fiction.” It claims for French womanhood
as great a degree of respectability of conduct and urity of morals, as English
women can boast of; and warns the reader against ju ging their character from the
extreme views of the French novelist. Speaks of Zola, Daudet, de Maupassant,
Bourget, &c.; and concludes thus:-“It takes all sorts to make a world, but the
biggest sort of women are the best, in France, as in England, or Kamschatka. We
881-887 MARSHALL FIELD BLDG., CHICAGO 39

mysteries, as judge French women on the testimony of a few Parisian romances,

Some folk, (doubtless very superior persons) gird at Sir Walter Besant; but
both his novels and his more serious books are eminently pleasant and readable.
He has always something to say, and he knows how to say it, which is more
than many exceedingly superior persons have, or can do.

It is a surprising thing that this most fascinating subject had never been at—
tempted before, exception brief, and locally, by the historians of various parishes
and districts. The arrangement of this volume is in Six Groups, according to their
topographical situation; and at the end of the historical notices, which are very
interesting and amusing, are references, not only to literary sources of information,
but also to Books and Collections, where Drawings and Prints may be found.
Gardens are a subject in its way, as worthy every way, of being taken up by
the Collector, as is Dramatic History, with the advantage of being less extensive
in scope, more variegated in character, and very much less open to disappointments
caused by Rival Collectors snapping up the things one is after one’s self.

lished. London, 1899. $6.00.
Limited edition of 500 copies printed on Japanese Vellum. In oﬁering this
English translation of a story universally recognized as the ﬁnest and most
artistic short story ever written, the publisher has to 'ustify his action so far as
concerns the existing prejudice in England against subjects such as those chosen
and treated by De Maupassant. He wishes therefore to sa that he appeals only
to that section of the public interested in a work of art or the sake of its art
regardless of so called morality or ethics. This book is not intended to be placed
indiscriminately in the hands of those unlikely to judge of and appreciate its
beauty of workmanship quite independently of its subject or of those who distrust
the realism of the author.

Alyn Williams, and others still living. 2 vols., thick impl. 4to,
white buckram gilt, top edges gilt, others uncut. London,
Bell and Sons, 1904. $50.00.
The number of 686 miniatures, large as it is, does not include the reverses
of the lockets, &c., of the smaller ones, which are occasionally ﬁgured; and it should
44 WALTER M. HILL

be noted that many of the paintings contain portraits of two or three persons,
family groups, &c.
The edition consists of 520 copies only, and n‘ was. not an nsnm'rso. It is so
sumptuoust produced, and it is such an exhaustive collection, (insofar as excellent
and historic work is concerned) that it would be absurd to expect it to be attain-
able after the lapse ot a very brief period.
. B. “The Copyright of every illustration in this vork is strictly reserved
on behalf of the owner of the original miniature.”
The Text accompanying the Miniatures and its Index, Appendix, &c., occupy
about 400 pp.; and it is only due to the author’s knowledge of his subject, and
inﬁnite labour in' tracing the pictures; in obtaining the permission of ro al, aristo-
cratic, and other wealthy owners; oeside- that of curators of Municipal ollections;
to say that no such important work upon this charming class of art-works previously
existed, or is likely to equal it in time to come.

It was a very happy thought indeed to add the profusion of beautiful wood-
engravings to the favorite “forty-eight" Scott. '
The original “Abbotsford Waverley” is a glorious book for the shelves, or for
table-reading, but its bulk and weight totally unﬁt it to be the English tourist's
companion among the scenes and antique remains of “auid Scotia."
Here, however, is the very thing to slip into his knapsack, to read on hi8
railway journey from shrine to shrine; and to guide his footsteps aright, while
wandering where Edie Ochiltree, and “Old Mortality" went before him:--where
Rob Roy now trod upon heather, and now upon city pavements.

HORACE WALPOLE :—FANNY BURNEY.
333. SEELEY (L. B.) His Twin-Books:—(a) Horace
Walpole and his World; Select Passages from his Letters. Por-

tra/its. 1895.—(b) Fanny Burney and Her Friends; Select
Passages from her Diary and other Writings. Portrait. 1895.
Together 2 vols., crown 8vo, cloth neat, uniform, uncut. Lon-
don, 1895. Each, $1.00.
Walpole’s dates of birth and death were 1717-1797; those of Miss Burney
(Madame D’Arblay) 1752-1840. We may take it that the two writers, between
them, present the most living and interesting picture of the last sixty years of the
Eighteenth, and the ﬁrst twenty years of the Nineteenth Centuries to be found in
any two volumes throughout the whole range of English memoirs.
For about twenty of these eighty years, the elderly Walpole and the youth-
ful Miss Burney, were meeting the same men and women distinguished in the circles
of literature, art, wit and fashion.
There was scarcely a man or woman of worth or of distinction of any descrip-
tion, with whom one or the other, or both of them had not more or less intimate
acquaintance.
The hastiest flutter over the leaves of the two books flash before the eyes,
such names as those of Chatterton, Garrick, Boswell, Johnson, the Thrales, Mrs.
Delany, Burke. Sheridan, \Varren Hastings, Gray, Pitt, Fox, Madame Du Deﬁand,
George 111., Queen Charlotte, and hosts of other notabilities.

speare, and of the Verses facing same, from the Second Folio;
also of the Comedy of “As Y on Like it,” from the same. Small
folio, half roan. Privately printed for Mr. Daly, 1890. $8.00.
Upon the title page is the autograph presentation inscription—“With the Com-

(One of 100 copies only). 1899. $30.00.
A most interesting and extensive collection, comprising 922 items, each of which
is annotated. Mr. Sidney Lee, in the Prefatory Essay, saysz—“I believe this col-
lection of Shakespeareana to be, within its limits, the most interesting and valu-
able in existence. A sustained eﬁ'ort has been made, on the one hand, to assemble
as many volumes as possible in English or foreign literature of the sixteenth and
early seventeenth centuries, which critics have shown grounds for believing were
studied by Shakespeare himself. On the other hand, there have been brought
together numerous seventeenth-century books of both English and foreign origin,
in which the authors have either made speciﬁc reference to Shakespeare or have
evinced knowledge of his work by way of imitation or plagarism.” He also expresses
his opinion that the collection is, on the whole. of‘greater interest than those of
Edward Capell, Edmund Malone, or Halliwell-Phillips. _

A the volumes are from the pens of the very best living practical author-

The First Series of “Poems and Ballads” was greeted by a portion of the
press with a howl of real or simulated indignation. The timid Moscow, obeying
perhaps the scrupulousness of the circulating libraries, yielded the whole remainder
of his stock to Hotten, who continued its issue without deleting a line or a word
of the original. The text of “Notes on Poems and Reviews” is to be found in
half a line addressed to its adverse reviewers:——“.\la corruption rougirait de leur
pudeurl”
A large number of the Second Edition was sent into the world without any
indication of its being a second.

presented, has been obliterated, probably by himself; but it is asserted inside the i

old “Mac” was a welcome visitor at the palaces of great prelates, who delighted in

Marvy was a French artist, whom Thackeray had known in Paris, but who was,

Thackeray seems to have induced Bogue to issue the engravings, but without
some descriptive text. “the publisher would not hear of Mr. Marvy’s appearance
before the English Public.”

Much of the comment is in a very diﬁ'erent vein from that of the ordinary
art critic. Instance the following:
“Mr. Cook, we believe, is as skilled with the graver as with the pencil; and
this is one of the many river scenes, which have earned the artist’s reputation.
The showman who has engaged himself to describe his friend’s exhibition in
truth ﬁnds the task to be one of uncommon difﬁculty; and, as the in enuoue
reader has perhaps remarked, is often compelled to speak about anything at the
subject in hand, while the scene is passing before the public eyes. We are not
here to bawl out that this is the wonderful wonder of wonders—that our giant is
biggest, our dwarf the smallest, or our pictures the most beautiful in the world,” etc.

An idea of these scandalous notes may be _obtained from the following:—
“A Lady’s Face is all you see undress’d.
For none but Lady M shows the rest.”
To this quotation Walpole has added the name “Mary,” i. e., Lady Mary
Wertley Montagu, the quarrel between whom and the little giant being well known.

NOTE.
Mr. Walter Hill takes pleasure in submitting the present
catalogue of autograph signed letters, original manu-
scripts, etc., to the judgment of his customers. Owing to
the great demand for choice specimens of the autographs
of certain persons of note, many of this kind are exceed-
ingly difficult to obtain, and among the pages of the cata-
logue will be found a fine list.
By haunting the markets of England this season many
rare and interesting items have been procured, and the
selection made with the view of presenting something of
uncommon interest for the collector.
Particular attention is directed to an original manuscript
of Burns, several fine early letters of Carlyle, a playful
letter of Coleridge, two manuscript poems of Cowper, sev-
eral Cruikshank letters, a number of exceedingly note-
worthy Dickens’ specimens, three good letters of Disraeli,
and a fine letter of Dryden.
There are several good letters of Lord Lytton, a number
of choice Lamb letters, a manuscript of Moore, a naval
order of Nelson and a very interesting naval order signed
by both Admirals Penn and Samuel Pepys. Sala is repre-
sented by four good letters and Sir Walter Scott by three
letters and a unique relic. There is a fine letter of Sterne
and a few by Thackeray, one of which is especially good. 0f
unusual interest is the original typewritten copy of Oscar
Wilde’s “Lady Windemere’s Fan,” with corrections by the
author.
Correspondence is invited and autographs will be sent on
approval to any part of the United States on receipt of
introduction or reference. _

29 BURNS (ROBERT). ORIGINAL AUTOGRAPH MANUSCRIPT. A
rare and most covetable item, which was formerly in the
collection. of Mr. Constable, the eminent publisher, of
Edinburgh. This is stated in a pencil memorandum,
made and signed by T. Thorpe, one of the great old Lon-
don Booksellers, upon the sheet to which the MS. is at—
tached. Upon the two sides of a small 4t0 sheet are 37
(thirty-seven) lines entirely in the autograph of Burns.
$250.00
On the ﬁrst page of the MS. are 8 lines, headed—“1st Verse” com-
mencingz—“Here’s a bottle and an honest friend!”—These lines ap-
pear in the Eight Vol. Edition of Cunningham’s, 1834; in Vol. VIII.,
p. 215, but they are preceded in the MS. by two lines evidently in-
tended as a chorus to the above verse, and others intended, which are
not printed. These chorus lines are as follows:
“There’s nane that’s blest of human kind
But the cheerful and the gay man—Pal lal &c.”
Following the verse are 9 lines devoted to two jests, which have a
kind of kennel-humour, such as we ﬁnd in “The Merry Muses.”
On the reverse page are four 4-line verses of a song entitled :—
“Katharine Jaﬁ'ray.”
The ﬁrst verse is:—
“There liv’d a lass in yonder dale,
And down in yonder glen; 0
And Katharine Jaﬁray was her name
Well known to many men.
This I do not ﬁnd in Cunningham’s Edition; but believe from the
style of the piece that it is by Burns, and may probably be given in
some edition later than Cunningham’s.
10 WALTER M. HILL

At any rate the writing throughout, on both sides of the sheet is
the great bard’s own; and the leaf is probably one abstracted by him—
self, or by some one else, from his Commonplace Book.
To revert to the two Jests; one is of Tibbie Nairn, the Keeper of an
improper house, who had returned from hearing George Whiteﬁeld
preach; and the other of a Beggar Woman and a Herd-boy of the
Merse district.
Their being in the poet’s autograph should go a long way towards
establishing the fact that he also composed some Of the pieces in the
“Merry Muses.”
Be that as it may, they certainly have a value as an illustration of
his many-sided character.

“You must accept a copy of this Book, and read it in vacant hours
to make you forget the ‘wild beasts of Ephesus,’ over whom I am

tory. I am wedded here. and might be the happiest man in these
parts, would that thrice-cursed ventriculus but let me. Frequently I
swear that I shall never in the world get well, and that I do not care
three farthings whether I do or not!
I would give twenty pounds to see you for half a day. Why will
you not _write to met I feel as if I could promulgate more of my
secret mind to you than to any other living man almost; and yet of
all my friends you are the one that have said fewest kind things to
me. How is it? It is those clear blue friendly eyes of yours, and that
ever helpful hand; the spirit always ready with act and counsel in the
hour of need!
May God bless you, my dear Badams! Tho’ I never see you more,
I would not part with you for money or money’s worth.
But will you never come to Edian—Never come and see my wife, who
loves you almost as much as I do? At least you might write; tho’ it
were but: ‘Dear Sir, I am still alive, and remain, &c.’—even this were
worth something.
Good sooty Brummagem! Honest old Warwickshire! I shall love
them all the days of my life.”
Carlyle then speaks, still in the same warm-hearted manner of Taffy
(a horse), and Tom (a pigeon), whom he had become acquainted with
in Birmingham, and concludes with the signature:
“My dear Badams,
Most affectionately yours,
Thomas Carlyle.”

It is very long since I undertook a letter to you, on my sole strength;
but in the present crisis we are glad to have recourse to any expedient;
and the truth is, Jane will give me no rest till I write. She is quite
melancholy, or at least fast becoming so, that she cannot hear from you,
because she feels herself to have begun the wrong, and so must want
even the poor soJace of complaint. . . . Another whim, though but
for moments, I have had to controvert in my little theorizing wife:
she thinks you are offended! I know you much better. . . . This
is one of my vacation-days; for ever after a spell of writing, which is
apt to exasperate me too much, I take perhaps half a week of entire
idleness, read all manner of shallow letter-press, delve in our little
patch of a garden, plunge into the Babel of ‘living conversation,’ or re-
create myself otherwise as I please, till the bilious ﬁt has subsided, and
I am again a reasonable member of society. . .
What is become of your ill-guided wanderer? Is he still with Bad-
ams, or otherwise permanently settled? Pity that singing-birds were
not as easy to nurse and train as common chicken. . . . This poor
boy has a spirit in him which strives beyond the common; and alas out
of the old stupid highways there is no safe travelling. I wish Charles
were ﬁve-and-twenty, safe and ﬁxed, and the man he was made to be.”'
Offers to superintend the young fellow’s studies, if she will send him
to Edinburgh, and will be glad, if so, that he should visit their “little
cottage,” where he will ﬁnd “some emblem of a home ;” and continues—
“Of your own health I am afraid to inquire. Doctors may manip-
ulate with all gravity, and talk in as clear language as they conveniently
can; but in all cases of obdurate affliction, they are little better than a
broken reed. . . . Blessed Nature! She is a kind, tho' a strict
Mother: none of her children, whose heart is wise, will she leave alto-
gether comfortless. I, myself, can hope only at mere intervals that
ever I shall see another healthy day; and yet I know not that I was
ever much happier, not surely, at least, when I felt as if I had a frame
of iron, and a heart heaving and smouldering with a thousand dis-
contents. My good wife also conducts herself like a wife, and consents
to be happy beside even a sick man whom she loves. . . . The world’s
business is the sea we sail on; and its prizes are like very pretty glit-
tering bubbles that ﬁit hither and thither among the waves. But should
a true sailor steer after these; or only thro’ them, and towards some
loadstar that is ﬁxed in the eternal sky?

You must again and again thank Mr. Procter for the kind and truly
delightful acquaintance he has given us here in Mr. Jeffrey. He has
but one fault, but that one is a thumper! O, that law had never been
invented, or that Francis Jeffrey had never been a lawyer. . . .
I am an acquaintance, almost a friend, Of—The Opium—Eater’s! Poor
Dequincey! He is essentially a gentle and genial little soul; only that
the liver is diseased, and the ‘I-ety’ is strong; and both together some-
times overset his balance. Poor Soul! One of the most perfect gentle-
men I have ever seen; and yet here he is living in lodgings, with two
of his little children (writing for bread in the paltriest of all news-
papers)f’
This is a right noble letter, and shows what a warm heart beat be-
neath that cynical outside. I have not by any means exhausted this
veritable gold-mine, in my extracts.

“The work you mention would have been very acceptable, had it
been of a sort I could do. But tho’ translating out of German without
scruple, I cannot translate into it; into French as little, or perhaps less.
If your friend be well advised, he will engage nobody who is not a native
of France for the French part; nobody who has not lived in Germany
at least, for the German. Pity my Brother is at Rome; not to return
for two months! He knows the tongue of the Germans perfectly,
having lived years among them; and is a faithful man.
DO you never come down Chelsea-wards? It would be very pleasant

A letter of great importance, and evidently preserved by Carlyle, on
account of its contents being so identiﬁed with his views on the en-
grossing subject of “Pauperism.” It is endorsed by Carlyle himself in
a very touching postscript :—
“Alas, my poor friend died, next morning, this 29th
Nov. 1848! Letter written yesterday; not sent, nor
ever to be so.”
The letter itself commences :—
_ “I am glad you intend setting forth you ideas on the frightful sub-
Ject of Pauperism, a subject which naturally engages the thoughts of all
14. WALTER M. HILL

thinking men in these times; and certainly if I had any statistic or other
information that promised to further you, I would. with pleasure send
it. But that is not the case;” . . .
After a few lines on his observations of the Irish peasantry coming
over to Scotland, their poverty tragic, and reduced within 30 years from
a condition of happiness; he goes on :—
“Beggary, vice, and every species of human degradation steadily in-
creasing in the lower orders, and in the higher every species of human
idleness, levity and contemptibility, along with the more increase of
rent, and what is called ‘improvement’ by Customhouse Philosophers
(and is so to a certain degree, in a certain small sense); all this was
of a nature to give rise to reﬁexions! Inﬂux of scandalous hordes of
ragged Irishmen,—as indeed not only there, but now everywhere, and
'on the stones of London itself, may be observed—has been the palpable
proximate cause of most of that misery; but, alas, I can perceive withal
it is ‘proximate’ only, and indeed is not so much itself a ‘cause,’ as the
symptom and general outcome of many sad causes. Causes innumer-
able, deep—seated, wide-spread, engrained into the very blood of us;
most diﬁicult to be cast out (‘impossible’ is the word),—and which
must be cast out, or social death itself, in the shape of ‘red republic’
and bottomless ruin and delirium, seems not to be far off!
My own private conclusion, which as yet I can get very few to agree
in, is that the Government (even that distracted Talking Phantasm pre-
sided over by the like of Lord John Russell, which we at present call
Government), ought to close its sublime Scriptures of Political Econ-
omy, with all their unutterable Talmuds, and looking at the bare fact,—
which is plain enough without hand-lanterns, and will soon grow to an
explosive Vesuvius effectually superseding lanterns,-—say to itself, I
must either ﬁnd employment for these hungry masses, or they and I
must perish. I am no Government otherwise, but a noisy insane Coil
of red tape and Palaver, disowned Of God and men !” . . .
I have the ﬁrmest conviction that it is possible for even an actual
Government (with one brave man in the heart of it), to begin enlisting
mad perishing mobs of unemployed Paupers into ‘Industrial regiments,’
and under strict military drill, just as Rhadamanthus, and wise, and
stem as he, to ﬁnd employment for them, in Colonies, in Bogs of Allen,
in hundreds of square miles Of waste improveable land (now ﬁrst be-
come important by railways) which I myself have travelled over; and
on the whole to get sufﬁcient work out of them for their own sub—
gsteigzce; and so set the whole world on the right track in this matter,”

"WHAT A LIE 15.”
“Nature admits no lie; most men profess to be aware of the fact,
but few in any measure lay it to heart. Except in the department of
mere material manipulation, it seems to be taken practically as if this
grand truth were merely a polite flourish of rhetoric. What is a lie?
Thedquestion is worth asking once and away by the practical English
min .”
And so on, with his answer to the question; answered we may be
sure with the stern insisting power with which Carlyle ever urged upon
his readers and hearers, that which his understanding and conscience
told him was true; with the hatred of a perfectly true man, for the
poison of a lie, of what kind soever.

“‘I could be well content, allow’d the use
Of past Experience, and the Wisdom glean’d
From worn-out follies, now acknowledg’ such,
To recommence Life’s Trial, in the hope
Of fewer Errours on a second proof.’
“Thus, while grey 'Evening lull’d the Wind, & call’d
Fresh odours from the Shrubb’ry at my side,
Taking my lonely winding walk I mus’d,
And held accustom’d Conf’rence with my Heart;
When from within it, thus a voice replied.
Could’st thou in Truth? and art thou taught at length
This Wisdom, & but this from all-the past? &c., &c.

Allegiance to your God!

RARE AUTOGRAPH LETTER OF VERY EARLY PERIOD.
48a COWPER (WILLIAM). AUTOGRAPH LETTER, closely writ-
ten, 2 pp., 4to, Circa, 1749. $30.00
An extremely interesting youthful epistle, evidently to an intimate
friend. It may be assigned to the date 1749-50, so with every probabil-
ity, as Cowper left Westminster School at the age of 18 and (between
then and his entering upon his service of three years under articles to
Mr. Chapman, the Solicitor)—spent three months at home. During his
eight years schooling at Westminster he had become proﬁcient in writ-
ing good Latin verse.
“Dear Toby—
“I am in such a hurry I hardly know how to set one Leg before

and Pathos

Jerrold’s life. 4 pp., 8vo, clearly written. “Household
Words” Oﬁ‘ioe, June 10, 1857. $135.00
The following long letter was written to Sir W. H. Russell, the
famous “Times” War Correspondent. Ample extracts follow, but it
must be understood that the letter throughout is of sustained interest;
and that these are only extracts.
“Dear Russell. Although I can quite understand that a generous
nature 15 quick to give itself the pain you describe, I am perfectly sure
22 WALTER M. H ILL

that you have nothing whatever to reproach yourself with in associ-
ations with the poor dear fellow. I do not doubt that he would have
died in the same day, though he had not dined with us; and that he was
happy that day and recalled the air of our ride, on his bed but a day or
two before he passed away. I know from Lemon, to whom he spoke
of it with great cheerfulness and pleasure. He was taken very ill on
the next day—the Monday. He tried to get up as usual, rolled over on
his bed, and fell into great pain.
On the Wednesday and Thursday they were very much alarmed; but
on the Friday he rallied again, and was free from pain, though exceed-
ingly weak. It was then that Lemon saw him for the last time. He
had begun to be conﬁdent of getting better, and he told Lemon about
our riding over Blackheath, and about the air having been so fresh and
pleasant to him.
On the Saturday he turned worse; on the Sunday, he was in terrible
pain, and suffered severely; on the Monday morning, the pain left him,
but he was greatly exhausted, and knew himself to be dying.
He said that if he had spoken at all hardly of any one or to any one,
he had not meant it, and that he died at perfect peace. His son Wil-
liam was holding him in his arms. He went on to mention friends to
whom he desired to be remembered, when he became indistinct, and in
a few moments died. .
I was coming up by the railway yesterday morning, with my wife,
and his sister (of whom he had always been fond), when a gentleman
in the carriage looking over his newspaper told another ‘Douglas Jer-
rold was dead’ You may imagine how shocked we were. I went up
there as soon as we reached town, and then went to Whitefriars to
urge the immediate necessity of exertion in behalf of the widow and
daughter.
I found that Brooks had already acted with a kindness and judi-
ciousness that I can never forget in him, and I suggested a plan for
certain beneﬁt nights which I hope to be able to mature this afternoon.
. Arthur Smith, invaluable where promptitude and Sagacity
are wanting, wrote to me this morning, like a good sbund fellow, say-
ing his aid is ready. I hope and believe that if nothing arises to pre-
vent our turning to, in earnest, we may easily—and not beggingly"
raise £I,500 at least. I would have the Actors (and old T. P. Cooke)
play the Rent-day and Black eyed Susan one night. On another night
I would have Thackeray lecture. On another night, I would read or
do anything. On another night I hope you could lecture to a good,
large, liberal, comprehensive public audience. All this series I would
announce as a tribute of his friends to his memory—or in some such
way—so that it should not be a pitiful appeal. You shall hear more,
as soon as I know more.
Dickens then tells Russell of what took place on the Sunday night
after Russell had left their company; and recalls to mind the death
of a’Beckett, and sending to Lemon a notice of his death for Punch,
writing upon the Jerrold’s envelope—“My dear Mark, Who among
831-837 MARsHALL FIELD BUILDING, CHICAGO. 23

us will be the next, and who will write a word or two of him.” He
then in a few lines, relates a remarkable dream about Jerrold, on the
very night of his death.

77 GARDINER (S. R., Historian). A. L. S. (“S011th
View, May 15, 1887”). 4 pp., 8vo. To Dr. Jerropp,
Essayist and Historian. $3.00
“Our usual tricycle tour is not coming off this summer. . . . I
have lectures still going on till the end of July after I get back from
Oxford & then we have to go in a humble parental manner to con-
glue;3 the boy to the Sea-side, & the particular sea-side will probably
e ude.
If I give a day on the way, it has got to be devoted to the Battle
of Langeport. . . . Fancy your just discovering that the great Sea-
Captain at Oxford is not a ‘great historian.’ He is however as Free-
man says, ‘a good soul’ for all that.
I am now looking over Clarendon from the examination point of view.
There is something very distressing in reading a book, not to discover
what you can learn from it, but to ﬁnd out how to puzzle some one
else by means of it. I have nearly got my Glamorgan article ready
for the Hist. Review, & am rather proud of it.” &c. &c.
78 GASKELL (MRS. E. C., Bioyrapher of Charlotte Bronté,

Manuscript. 1 folio page of 27 lines of her novel, en-
titled “Sylvia’s Lovers,” corrected ready for press,
with compositor’s name to whom it was given in the
printing oﬁice. $12.50
Together with the above are Autograph signed letters from two of
Mrs. Gaskell’s daughters, one of which enclosed the MS.; which is
sent because the writer “could hardly bear to part with one of her
letters, and I have no more Notes.”
80 GODWIN (WILLIAM, Novelist, etc., and husband of Mary
Wollstonecraft). A. L. S. (Somers Town, Jany. 6,
1800). 2 pp., small 4to, with 2 pp., 8vo, added, the lat-
ter apparently portions of a critical examination of an
Essay on population sent to him for judgment. $12.00
A long and interesting letter, in which he criticises Malthus’s Essay
on Population. He says :-— _
“I agree with the author in his main principle, the comparative ratios
of population & subsistanco (sic), & admire the clearness and skill
30 WALTER M. HILL

with which he has applied that principle to the Science of Political
economy. (2) that I do not think his doctrine in any sort of funda-
mental hostility to the system of Political Justice, & conceive his argu-
ments in direct application to me so frivolous & inﬁrm that every man
of sense may be trusted to answer them for himself. But the reasons,
though they may have determined my conduct, have by no means
proved satisfactory to every one to whom I have stated them.” [Mal-
thus] “sent me a copy of his book soon after its publication, though
we had no previous acquaintance; & we had in consequence two or
three friendly conferences on the contents of it.” &c.
81 GODWIN (WILLIAM). A. L. S. (44 Gower Place, May

book—“History of the Commonwealth,” (pubd I824~28); as he goes
on to say :—“I have looked into all Prynne’s tracts on the subject, for
the impertinent speech of Lord Arundel. There is no such thing in
them” &c.
82 GRAY (ASA, Distinguished American Botanist). A. L. S.
\(Kew, 12 April, 1851). To Mr. Foule, while Prof. Gray
was in. England. 2 pp., 8vo. $2.00
“Our pleasant experience of your introduction already would make
us accept your Oerrs for Italy with the Greatest pleasure. But alas!
the amount of botanical work I have yet to do, with some other con-
siderations, have led us to abandon the Italian journey altogether—-
that is for this year. We comfort ourselves with anticipating such a
tour at some future time, Deo favente. One compensating advantage
is that we shall see more of England in summer dress.” &c.
83 GRAY (THOMAS, Author of “THE ELEoY”). Original

cepting both the MSS. . . . as in the autograph of Gray. The
larger MS. is in the very careful . . . hand . . . used in mak-
ing annotations; the other in his ordinary hand. There are specimens
in this department akin to both. . . .This must not be used as an
ofﬁcial guarantee . . . which we are not allowed to give
but as an opinion '. . . for your own guidance.”

A kindly letter of advice to a would-be poet Of nineteen. He
tells him that he has :-—“Yet so much to learn in the study of poetry,
that I cannot—must not, in Conscience—~—encourage you to publish
what you write. Your imagery is not new, and your style very con-

up. I am sorry to be obliged to speak thus plainly . . . but it is
best.” Offers to give him future advice.

when you do go away, pray come back soon.”
831-837 MARSHALL FIELD BUILDING, CHICAGO. 33

Sir Henry wrote a hand worse than Dean Stanley’s, if worse could
be. But, besides the eminence and kindliness of the man, l'llS letters
are curiosities.

“Dear Lad, I send a book for friend Howard, and shall have one for
thee, when I shall receive a certiﬁcate from the Curé of your parish that
you have in your possession my two other volumes. Keepsakes are
good for nothing but as they are kept. Books lent ought also to be re-
turned, which was not the case with a No. of the London you ab-
stracted last visit. But rest you merry, I do not send so far to chide.”
. . (Mentions Colebrook Cottage, and describes its garden, as “a
genuine pot-herb garden, so much better than ﬂowers & such triﬁes”)—
“I do think it the most exactly ﬁtted to my notion of a HOUSE, of any
in rEurope. The New River ﬁoweth majestically in front, yielding a
sweet & wholesome water, being left a little to stand. I am lord of
(Ist time in my life) a dunghill.” . . . Vines I have, I assure you,
and little grapes . . . I am as rich as Alcock, if you do not know
who he was, he was a great Market Gardner and had a stand in Stocks

dress on p. 4. TO Miss Louisa Holcroft, daughter of

Eureka! The momentary mystery is solved in a twinkling, the
manuscript fragment of ‘Chillingham’ is intact and quite safe; in proof
of which I herewith return [it] to you . . . Apart from the
familiar handwriting it is in many ways thoroughly Bulwerian in its

3 pp., 8vo, Nov. 15, 1892. $25.00
I have been told of the ‘Leaflet,’ but have not seen it. Of
course it is piratical; whether issued by a lunatic or a profoundly spec-
ulative Yankee, I cannot decide. ‘Printed for friends Only’ is very
amusing. The reason why a poem Of a writer whose verse is not pop-
ular should havé' been selected for fraudulent publication is not clearly
seen. I trust all is right concerning it,” etc.

Dear Sir
The sad story Of the poet was not unknown to me & I had read some
excellent sonnets Of his. I thank you for the Collections. It is in the

UNPUBLISHED ORIGINAL AUTOGRAPH MANUSCRIPT.
169 TROLLOPE (ANTHONY). The Noble Jilt—a Comedy.‘
In Five Acts. 131 pp., entirely in the author’s auto-
graph, with numerous corrections, as submitted to Mr.
Bartley, formerly stage-manager at Covent Garden, for
his opinion as to its suitability for the stage. Sm. 4to, half
russia, with title lettered on back. C. 1851. $150.00
At the end of the volume, preserved inside an envelope is an Auto-
graph Signed letter of 4 pp. from Mr. Bartley to Mr. Trollope, in
which the writer gives, on the strength of a long experience, his care—
fully formed opinion that it is not suitable; and explains the grounds
upon which his judgment is based.
He had read it with care, and a desire, while avoiding favouritism,
to give all encouragement possible to the author, and to be candid and.
just. He says :—“I have too much regard and respect for your excel-
lent & highly gifted mother, and all her family, not to give them”—-(his
opinions)—“candidly as they are, and am most truly sorry they are not
more favourable.” This letter is dated 1851; after at least three of
Trollope’s novels had been published.
It is a pleasant characteristic of the author, that he has not only prc-
served the MS., but the criticism, and written upon the envelope con-
taining the latter :-—“Mr. Bartley’s criticism on the play. Mr. Bartley
was Stage Manager at Covent Garden, & an excellent judge of what
a play should be.”
No whimpering. or calling on the gods to witness how prejudice
smothers genius; but like a sane brave English gentleman, he simply
lays aside play-writing altogether; and gains the reward of his com-
mon-sense and right feeling by becoming one of our most popular and
most industrious novelists. Doubtless he often handled this volume, as
it came before him, with a whimsical smile, a little regret, but a great
deal of gratitude, for an honest verdict. Inside the cover is the Trol-
lope book-plate.

ists in audience. After lecture glad to visit Theatre. Heard so much
of Miss Dene’s genius and beauty; anxious to see her.
Enclosed are also two letters from Miss Dene, both signed.

APRIL, I909

NUMBER 27
WALTER M. HlLL
83l-5 MARSHALL-FIELD BUILDING
\ 3| WASHINGTON STREET
CHICAGO
HE ofﬁce and duties of a herald of old have always to this
deponent seemed pleasant, and soul-satisfying. He had
but to set his trumpet to his lips and announce the ap-
pearance of the great. They and their deeds spoke for themselves.
Such is the ofﬁce of an introduction to this catalogue—it can be
a moving ﬁnger only, to point and then move on.
No man who loves books but looks upon a catalogue with a
friendly eye, inexplainable to those who do not share his passion.
The readers of this catalogue will ﬁnd its contents an alphabet of
the best names in English literature. Books are here for all sorts
and conditions of men, and collectors, for those who come to buy
and for the delight of those who may not buy, too. Here are
books for the fortunate individual who is at liberty to sometimes
gratify his taste for single volumes and ﬁrst editions; here are
sets of the complete works of those who have written the master-
pieces of prose and ﬁction; here are other books and collections of
plates that no library can fail to desire; further, here are costly
bindings, and choice books which will ﬁll the collector with a
pleasant glow of anticipation.
The catalogue contains in all descriptions of between eight
and nine hundred items, not one of which is ordinary, some extra-
ordinary, and all desirable. It is rather different in a way from
any one hitherto sent out from the bookshop of Mr. Hill.
Pleasant to look at and to hold Emily Bronte’s own copy,
her name written in it, of the “Poems” of Currer, Ellis, and Acton
Bell, and to understand what must have been her keen girlish
triumph when she looked at it and knew she was “in print.” Side
by side with it is the ﬁrst edition, seldom procurable now, of
“Jane Eyre.” Here, too, is a little book written by Elizabeth Bar-
rett Browning, possessing not one inﬁnitesimal part of the value
or the beauty in itself of the least of her Portuguese Sonnets, and
yet since she wrote it when she was but seventeen years old, and it
was published anonymously, and is now difficult to secure, all the
Browning collectors prick up their ears, and maybe open their
pocket books. We would rather have and hold one or more of the
autographed inscribed volumes of Robert Browning, the “Joco-
seria,” for instance, or “Ferishtah’s Fancies,” or “Certain People
of Importance,” or—but this is doubtless for collectors only——
“Bells and Pomegranates” in its ﬁrst edition, with that too-often
missing Fifth Part (A Blot in the ‘Scutcheon) present. In fact
the whole Browning collection is an enviable one. Its chief fea-
ture to many will be the original manuscripts of the two poems
written by the Brownings and printed by Arabel Barrett in 18 54.
One pauses at Burton’s “Anatomy of Melancholy,” scans its
whimsical sub-titles, touches its beautiful Riviere binding, thinks
of the curious man who wrote it, of the famous men who read it
and praised it, of the many who tried to imitate it—and lays it
reluctantly down. It is a book that any man possessing might
be envied in possession. -
Now glance at the little read, but loved by those who do,
“Night Thoughts” of Edward Young. This copy is illustrated
by William Blake. It is the copy which contains the explanation
of the engravings, which, eccentric as they are, possess a noble
imaginative beauty that ﬁll one with awe as well as wonder.
Among the Coleridge items is a copy of “Poems on Various
Subjects,” with Charles Lamb’s four contributions, the ﬁrst pieces
of his ever printed, and-the poem of Sarah Fricker.
Here in a drop-case, lettered like a book, are the revise-sheets,
corrected by the author, of Darwin’s “Origin of Species.” Fancy
Darwin revising your origin and cageing it, or throwing cocoanuts
at it up a tree.
The Dickens books are perhaps the pride of the catalogue, and
its most notable feature. It is but fair to say that no such collec-
tion of Dickens has ever been made before in this country by any
- bookseller. The “Sketches by B02,” in the original parts; the
“Adventures of Oliver Twist,” and “Nicholas Nickleby,” both in
their original parts; “Master Humphrey’s Clock,” with the Sibson
plates, are a few of the choicest ones. The collection abounds in
original parts, presentation, and extra-illustrated copies; it will re—
main in the memories of lovers and hunters of Dickens books as a
remarkable one.
Among the Goldsmiths catalogued there is the “Vicar of
Wakeﬁeld,” printed at Salisbury in 1766, and bound as it should
be in the sober original calf. The book and its writer grow dearer
to each succeeding generation with a charm hard to analyze from
their very simplicity.
In mentioning the beautiful books of the catalogue, ﬁrst place
must be given to Gray’s exquisitely lovely Elegy. This copy is
the ﬁrst edition, having that distinction added to the inherent
beauty of its lines. It was printed in Paternoster Row, and sold
in 17 51 for a Sixpence. Many sixpences, now, will hardly avail.
There are a number of delightful books of coloured plates,
some valuable Cruikshanks, a handsome and scarce set of Crowe
and Cavalcaselle, books of Pierce Egan’s, and a group of Alken’s
Sporting Books, with coloured plates, that no moving ﬁnger can
pass by without a pause.
A beautiful example of Sixteenth Century Venetian Binding
is to be seen, in Italian manuscript on vellum, setting forth the
instructions of an ancient Doge of Venice. Fretwork and gilt,
dots and arabesques, the Lion of St. Mark, the armorial bearings
of the Ducal House to which the Doge belonged, translate you
by mere looking to the day when “Venice spent what Venice
earned.” There is a cord running through the back of the bind-
ing to which is attached the leaden seal of the Doge.
Bearing this magniﬁcence company is a “Book of Hours,”
HORAE BEATAE VIRGIN IS done in the French illuminated
Art of the Fifteenth Century, I54 leaves Of vellum, written in
Gothic Letter, with miniatures painted in colours and gold, with
capitals and text illuminated. Once it was held in the hands of a
wicked and sad French Princess in the city of Paris. Here it lies
in the bookshop of Walter Hill in the city of Chicago, a com-
panion for the Lion of St. Mark and the Seal of a Doge.
It’s a far cry from a Royal Mediaeval Demoiselle to awkward
old Dr. Johnson, rolling his ungainly weight down Fleet Street,
taking snuff untidily, spilling tea on his ruffles, writing diction-
aries, talking for Boswell’s beneﬁt, thundering off Lives of the
Poets, bellowing his pompous phrases, “making all his little ﬁshes
talk like whales," Mrs. Thrale said. His “Prince of Abyssinia”
and his “Idler” lie upon the Chicago bookshelf too, and care no
more for their near neighbors the Book Of Hours and the Ducale
Order than Johnson would have cared for the Princess and the
Doge’s selves.
If the group of Leigh Hunts are not mentioned at length it is
for lack of space and for no lack of their deserving, but Shelley’s
“Hellas,” his “Rosalind and Helen,” “St. Irvyne” and the “Cenci,”
ﬁrst editions all and in bindings to ﬁt their beauty, must be men-
tioned. And two sets of Shakespeare, the Halliwell-Phillips and
the Boydell Gallery. Then there is Swinburne’s “Atalanta” which
somehow seems to belong near Shelley and Keats. Of Keats there
are especially noteworthy his “Poems,” the one with the head of
Shakespeare on the title, printed in 1817—his “Endymion,” in the
original boards, the genuine ﬁrst issue—his “Lamia, Isabella, Eve
of St. Agnes and Other Poems.”
The Edmund Spenser must not be neglected, his “COin-_
plaints,” printed in I 591, the veritable book, with the different
title-pages, each surrounded by a border. To think of Milton
here seems ﬁtting, and here are his “Paradise Lost” and “Para-
dise Regained,” magniﬁcent copies both. The Paradise Lost, ﬁrst
edition, the ﬁrst title-page, the ﬁrst text, in the original sheep—
skin as it was published. The Paradise Regained in the Original
calf as it was published, and added to it is the Samson Agonistes.
The lovers of Matthew Arnold will be glad to see one of the
six known copies of the ﬁrst edition of “Alaric at Rome”--in its
pink paper covers just as it came from the printers, and also they
will like to get a sight of “Empedocles” which Swinburne says
clove to his memory even as a school boy.
The Thackeray collection contains the much hunted “Gowns-
man,” uncut copy in the separate numbers as issued; a Vanity
Fair, earliest issue, with the Steyne woodcut, in the twenty origi-
nal parts, with illustrations by Thackeray, and all the genuine pic-
torial wrappers. Besides, the “Christmas Books,” complete all
ﬁrst editions. Among the Thackeray treasures was included,
until recently sold, “King Glumpus” bound as his Majesty en-
joys no doubt in one of Riviere’s crimson covers. The entire
collection is almost as noteworthy a one as that of the Dickens.
There are rarities of Sheridan, and of Rossetti; there is a
book of Ruskin’s—that volume of “Poems” printed for private
circulation only, which has now become eagerly hunted. There
are Villon’s “Ballades,” printed for the Villon Society, for private
distribution, in 1878; and Voltaire’s “La Pucelle,” translated by
Lady Charleville, printed privately, of which only ﬁfty copies
were ever made.
Horace Walpole’s Works and a very superb edition of the
Complete Angler are tempting, and so tOO is a curious old Gilbert
White’s “Selborne,” the scarce ﬁrst issue. A gathering of Oscar
Wilde’s works, an unusual one, attracts attention. This collec—
tion embraces all that he ever wrote, some things that may never
be printed again.
NO mention has been made Of Scott, nor George Meredith,
Andrew Lang, nor Kipling, nor George Moore, nor Stevenson,
beloved more by all English speaking people than any man 0t
his day—but they are all here in the best possible editions, ﬁrst
. and library; especially good is the famous Edinburgh Edition of
Stevenson.
To look over the catalogue from end to end and to hark back
in mind to that small but important order who mostly scan the
pages of a new catalogue looking for good things, one feels dis-
posed tO spread open before them its pages to emulate the manner
of Mrs. Jarley of Wax-Work fame who advertised her “Only
Show on Earth” with the following well known lines:
“If I had a donkey and he wouldn’t go
To see Mrs. Jarley’s Wax-Work Show-—
DO you think I’d acknowledge him?
0 NO! NO!”
Driven by her muse and her convictions the verse gets changed tO
“If I had a collector and he wouldn’t go
To see the books that this catalogue show-—
You reckon I’d acknowledge him?
0 NO! NO!”

devoted, one plate each, to Poachers, Ferreting, Otter-Hunting,
Marten-Hunting, Prize-Fighting, Dog-Fighting, Cock-Fighting,
Bull-Fighting, and Bear-Baiting. The descriptions give some ﬁne
revelations of brutality, and Alken expresses himself very strongly
respecting the “execrable miscreants,” “horrible cruelty,” the “agon-
ized feelings of the poor victim bull” surrounded by “savage black-
guards,” properly stigmatising the AMUSEMENT as “infamy and
wickedness.” The plates exhibit each subject from actual witness;
with infallible demarcations between legitimate sport, and diaboli-
cal revelry. LARGE PAPER COPIES, LIKE THE ABOVE,
AND IN SUCH FINE CONDITION ARE VERY RARE.

*Mr. Arnold says that “the poem of ‘Empedocles on Etna’ was
withdrawn before ﬁfty copies of the ﬁrst edition were sold. I must
suppose that one of these was the copy I had when a schoolboy—
how snatched betimes from the wreck, and washed across my way,

ﬁne copies. Newcastle, 1791-1804. $75.00
* The ﬁgures of the creatures were never so faithfully portrayed
before; but it is when the great artist left the scientiﬁc department,
and let loose his wonderful powers of observation and fancy, in the
unapproachable tail-pieces, that we realize how great he was.
Some (many indeed) are full of pawky Northern humour; Others
are pathetic enough to furnish themes for the poet;—again there
are many illustrative incidents of sport, and country occupations
and amusements Whence socver Bewick drew his subjects, nature
guided his pencil in every line; and his position among British
draughtsmen is ﬁxed for all time—in the top group.

" “It is in every way worthy of Mr. Swinburne’s high fame. In
no prose work can be found passages of keener poetry or more

has its weighty signiﬁcance. 4to, half roan. London, 11. d. (circa
1880). $18.00

'This copy contains the explanation of the engravings, which is
usually wanting. “Many of the designs are surpassingly imagin-
ative and noble . . . familiarity does much to help the influence
of these, as of all Blake’s designs, to deepen the signiﬁcance of our
artist’s high spiritual commentary on the poet.”—Gilchrist. A re-
markable specimen of the artist’s eccentricity and genius.

of both poems, the one, "A PLEA FOR THE RAGGED
SCHOOL OF LONDON.” Entirely in the handwriting of
ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING occupying 4 8vo
pages. The other, “Twins” entirely in the autograph of Robert
Browning occupying I 8vo page. $750.00
A ﬁne copy of the First Edition, which in itself is rare.
Mr. Wise says that the history of this little brochure
certainly merits a place in the Romance of Bibliography.
It was printed by Arabel Barrett for a bazaar to beneﬁt
the “Refuge for Young Destitute Girls” and published
at six pence. Few copies found buyers and the pamphlet
became very rare. In 1887, thirty—three years after they
had been printed a parcel of them turned up in a London
Auction room and the bookseller into whose hands they
fell advertised them at two shillings. They rapidly dis-
appeared at this price, and now command a high ﬁgure.

placed in the volume by Browning himself. On the end-paper is
the poet’s autograph address to “Mr. Kingsland, 45 Thomhill

" Inscribed upon the half-title, in the poet’s autograph :—“William
G. Kingsland with the best regards of Robert Browning.” A
most interesting volume, with a curious error of the press, which
Mr. Browning has himself corrected in autograph. It is dedicated
in Latin to the memory of J. Milsand “obiit iv. Sept. MDLXXVI.”
That publishers of the standing of Smith, Elder, and printers like
Spottiswoode should pass such an error as to print a date 1587,
when 1887 was the correct one, is most curious. Mr. Browning,
with the pen supplied the omitted “CCC.” Very likely the mis-
take would be immediately pointed out by him to the printers, and
bv them corrected by the insertion of a cancel leaf. In that case,
the existence of the misprint will be the mark of a very early issue.

1"This trenchant review of several poets provoked Mr. Swin-

* This is a sound and perfect copy, even to the leaf of “Errata,”
which is often wanting. “The Anatomy of Melancholy has been
constantly pillaged, sometimes imitated, never equalled. That his
melancholy or his conceit as an astrologer induced him to shorten
his life is doubtless mere legend, but it is said from his calculation
he predicted that he would die on or about the above date, which
being exact, several of the students did not forbear to whisper
among themselves that, rather than there should be a mistake in
his calculation, he sent up his soul to heaven thro’ a slip about his
neck.”—.~It/1en. Oxon.

from the zest with which Sir John Tenniel illustrated these two
really GREAT books, he must have been a very near disciple.

vols., 8vo, newly and ﬁnely bound in half levant, gilt tops, uncut,
by Riviere. London, 1903. $12. 50
*This most interesting record of the political and social life in
England during the early portion of the 19th century, is one of the
most important contributions to the history of that most important
period. Creevey knew almost everybody in the political world, of
Great Britain, at that time, and his anecdotes concerning them, and
his account of their intentions, motives, ideas, quarrels, successes and
failures, as well as his testimony as to the manner in which many
political and social transactions were viewed by people of emin-
ence at the time, are full of interest for readers who are only ac-
quainted with the contradictory or suppository statements of latter-
day writers. The Diaries form a most useful accompaniment to
the ‘Greville Memoirs,’ and a copy of the First Edition is now
very diliicult to obtain. The work has already been reprinted seven
times, and the impressions of the portraits have suffered the usual
fate; but in the First Edition they are all sharp, bright, and pleas-
ing. “The raciest of commentators, the most indiscreet of chroni-
clers, the repository of all the scandal, all the gossip, and many of
the conﬁdences of his eminent contemporaries . . . . a quarry of
good things, which every reader will discover according to his
taste.”——-Westminster Gazette.

*The etchings inserted in these volumes are representative of
the artist’s versatile power from its earliest period to the second
(the ﬁnest) period, culminating in the celebrated etchings to
Grimm’s German Popular Stories, and to the later or third period,
as exhibited in his more elaborate and ﬁnished etchings for the
writings of Dickens and Ainsworth. They commence with the ﬁne
Coloured Etching—“Lady and Fishwoman”—published in the Jest
Book, 1810, and end with two powerful etchings of Workmen’s
Dwellings, drawn and etched in 1857, but never published. Space
precludes enumeration of the numerous books from which these
etchings have been taken, but we may mention a few, viz. :—The
Chap Book, 1812; the Dashing Song Book, 1813; the Meteor, 1814;
the Humorist, 1819; Illustrations of Time; Grimm’s German Pop-
ular Stories, 1823-6 (the etchings in which are considered by Rus-
kin to be the ﬁnest, next to Rembrandt’s, ever done, the number of
these alone being 18); the Omnibus; Comic Almanacks; Fairy
LIbrary; Miser’s Daughter; Tower of London, etc. As before
stated, every plate, coloured and plain, is a genuine impression,
in brilliant, unspotted state, and the cost of procuring the plates,
mounting them, and binding the volumes in their present hand-
some manner must have exceeded twice the amount of the price
now asked.

*I foresee for this book a rapidly coming rarity. Collectors of
Dickens and Ainsworth, and Cruikshank buyers generally, will
mercilessly break the book up, in order to extra illustrate the three
works, already possessing the etched plates. To such as prefer
keeping it as it is, it should be stated that there are lengthy ex-
tracts to each, from the respective works; and a most interesting
introductioii respecting Cruikshank’s claims to be the originator
of both “Oliver Twist” and “The Miser’s Daughter,” besides other
popular novels. The artist’s pamphlet advancing those claims is
also reprinted. here

ONE OF THE EARLIEST ISSUES
154. DICKENS (CHARLES). The Posthumous Papers of
the Pickwick Club. 43 etched plates by R. Seymour and Phiz; to
which are added the 2 suppressed plates done by Buss, immediately
after the death of Seymour. The Seymour plates are in their
ORIGINAL state, before any re-touching or re-etching had been done
by Phiz. Very uncommonly found in this virgin state, as only 400
impressions were so taken, a large number of which were sent out
for review; many of which would no doubt, so little was thought
of the earlier parts, be cast into the W. P. 3.; while a much larger
number have since perished by accident, book-binders’ slaughter,
and evil usage; so that it is no wonder that the original issue of the
PRE-WELLER parts has become EXCEEDINGLY RARE. Thick 8vo,
contemporary full" morocco, gilt leaves. London, I837. $60.00
*The sign-board in the original engraved title-page is “Vel-
ler,” afterwards corrected to “Weller”; and the following peculiar-
ities, with many others, which it is unnecessary to mention, indi-
cate a True First Edition. . . . It will be sufﬁcient to set forth
one or two of the more noticeable points of difference between
Seymour’s own plates, and those which Phiz dealt with of Sey-
mour’s. Thus: (plate facing p. 2) Pickwick standing upon his
chair, addressing the club;—Seymour represents the buttons on
Pickwick’s waistcoat correctly; but Phiz places them upon the
wrong side of that garment.—(plate facing p. 9) Jingle, with his
dog Ponto, carries a gun over his left shoulder, correctly depicted,
at half-cock;—Phiz deprives the weapon of any‘ appliance for the
discharge of the weapon.—(plate facing p. 17) Jingle in a bor-
rowed suit, naturally a mis-ﬁt, is jeering at the angry Dr. Slam-
mer; and the two are standing on a staircase landing of ten planks;
while Phiz makes the suit ﬁt Jingle as if it had been made for
him, and adds an eleventh board to the landing. These features
will be detected at once on comparison with later issues.
155. DICKENS (CHARLES). Oliver Twist; or, the Parish
Boy's Progress. 25 (not 24 as usual) ﬁne plates by G. Cruik-
shank. The Plate “Rose Maylie and Oliver” has the original
plate, generally known as “The Fireside,” which was rejected by
Dickens, and only appears in a few of the earliest copies; also the
substituted plate of Rose and Oliver standing in front of the me-
morial tablet to Oliver’s mother, which has been inserted. EARLY
ISSUE OF THE FIRST EDITION. 3 vols., crown 8vo, cloth, uncut.
London, Bentley, 1838. $40.00
*Another feature of the First Edition, (First Issue), is the use
of the words “or, the Parish Boy’s Progress,” which were omitted
In the second issue.
156. DICKENS (CHARLES). The Burlesque Proclama-
tion, announcing the forthcoming publication of “The Life and
Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby;” and warning the Public against
Piracies. Entirely written by Dickens, and commencing:—

4"Excessively rare in the Parts-Complete—and in anything like
good state. This is a copy such as years’ hunting has never yet
placed in the possession of several collectors, who are not ham-
pered by want of means, but who have not met with a satisfactory
copy so far. Now occurs the opportunity. Additional interest at-
taches to the pictorial covers by Cruikshank, from their having a
recognized portrait of Dickens (one of the earliest) among the
pictured ﬁgures upon it.

*There can no longer remain any doubt that Dickens was the
author of this amusing little “skit,” as the late Mr. Wright, of
Paris, had a portion of the manuscript, in Dickens’s unmistakable
autograph which sold for a very high price, when his books were
dispersed by auction. This copy has upon the half-title the very
interesting autograph inscription :—“W. Pulford Esqr. with the

* Equal in desirable condition to the “Pickwick,” preceding, with
which it is uniform. The Onwhyn extra plates are frequently sold
as 32 for a complete set, which is incorrect, as there were, shortly
after the ﬁrst 30 scenes and 2 character portraits were published,

forty.

* Earliest issue of the First Edition. A chapter was transferred
from the beginning of Vol. I to the second volume on the eve of
publication, and the earliest copies were issued without the change
in the pagination of Vol. I, thereby necessitated. Later copies of
the same edition have the necessary alteration. Fine, bright copy,
uncut and unopened. Rare in this choice state.

* First Issue, most uncommon, having the mistake upon the pic-
torial title, offering “100£” reward, corrected very promptly to
“£100,” but not before a very few copies had got out. These
should be narrowly looked out for, as they contain the very earliest
proofs of the plates.

pamphlet, sewed, pp. 102. London, Published by the dssociation,
1850. ' $20.00
*This is, I believe, quite unknown to collectors and is not in-
cluded in any bibliographical list that I know of. Mr. Dickens’s
Speech is upon pp. 24-26, and his name appears upon the Com-
mittee list. In it he alludes to “Jacob’s Island,” which he had
previously described in “Oliver Twist.”
I76. DICKENS (CHARLES). A Curious Dance Round a
Curious Tree. 12mo, original pink wrappers. [Lond, 1852]. $17.50
*First issue. It records his impressions of the usual Christmas
dance given to the insane patients of St. Luke’s Hospital, London,
and was printed for distribution to the patrons of the hospital. It
has now become almost unprocurable. Mr. Slater in his Early
Editions is in error in describing this item, as copies in the pink
wrappers and with the last paragraph on p. 19 printed in heavy
type are by Dickens authorities considered the ﬁrst issue. Fine
copy, with the original mailing stamped envelope and small printed
envelope, addressed to “Henry F. Shaw Lefevre, Esq., Treasurer,
St. Luke’s Hospital for Lunatics.”

179. DICKENS (CHARLES). To be Read at Dusk.
FIRST EDITION. 8vo, full polished calf extra. London, Privately
printed, 1852. $100.00
*I do not know whether it has ever been commented upon by any
one among the numerous writers upon Dickens and his works; but
I think I can trace in many of his books, a strong vein of super-
stition in his mind; notwithstanding his great common sense, and
the superlative gift of humour which he possessed. “To be Read
at Dusk” contains two very “creepy” stories, among many which
could be collected out of his works.

209. DICKENSIANA: A Collection of Portraits and Illus-
trative Matter relating to Charles Dickens; comprising about 70
portraits of him; many rare; some, indeed, suppressed, or unpub-
lished. Including portraits ranging from his‘ Early Boyhood,
through the period of his struggle after Fame, and his successes
until the end. Commencing with the modest order of a glass of
“Stingo,” by David Copperﬁeld (which was undoubtedly an epi-
sode in the life of Dickens himself), it brings in numerous portraits
at various periods; from the long-haired Dandy of the Pickwick
era, to the grizzled veteran, who began but was not spared to
ﬁnish “Edwin Drood.”
There are India proofs, artist proofs, ﬁne steel engravings,
woodcuts, etc., after Cruikshank, “Phiz,” Maclise, Frith, and
other well known artists; the reproductions of photographs; even
down to a few match-box wrappers.
All tending to show what a power this poor lad made himself
in half a century ; dying with perhaps a more universal lament than
any other literaryman of his own or any previous age.
The whole contents of the collection are in the ﬁnest condition;
very neatly inlaid, or mounted upon fair white drawing-paper, and
handsomely bound. Royal folio, half-levant morocco, top edges
gilt. $75.00
*T he above collection is a very interesting one. For instance
there are some plates from “Sketches by Boz,” where now Dickens,
and now his old friend George Cruikshank ﬁgure among the char—
acters. We have the ﬁne portrait by “Phiz” with the Punch and
Judy Show in the background, which was suppressed.
There is the extraordinary “Gazette” complete, which was is-
sued with No. 2 of “Bentley’s Miscellany,” its illustrations a
Portrait of “B02.” Also, the rare green woodcut cover to Part I
of “Jacob Parallel’s Hands to Humphrey’s Clock,” which also con-

213. DICKENSIANA: Account of the Ball given in Honor
of Charles Dickens, in New York, Feb. 14, 1842. Reprinted
from the Exceedingly Scarce Issue of the New York Aurora Extra.
Octavo, boards. $2.00
*The work is beautifully printed on special paper, with a por-
trait of Mr. and Mrs. Dickens, and a ball room scene, all repro-
duced from the original cuts which accompanied the account.
As the Englishman was the lion of the day, it is easy to believe
that this particular issue of the newspaper has become very scarce,
and it has therefore been reprinted in its entirety and made partic-
ularly interesting to the collector by the addition of a commentary
on the text by W. P. Beazell, and the inclusion of a letter from
Dickens to Forster relating to the subject.
To those familiar with the American Notes there will come to
mind Dickens’s scathing remarks on American newspapers. The
methods of yellow Journalism were quite as much in vogue a half
54. Walter M. Hill
century ago as now—the diﬂerence lies within ourselves inasmuch
as we did not recognize this feature then as we do today. Dickens
saw it, however, and an example of one of its worst forms was
shown in The New York Aurora, a sheet prominent in many ways
sixty odd years since.
In 1842, on the arrival of Dickens in New York, this paper made
the most of its opportunities. On February 14th of that year there
was tendered the distinguished visitor a ball of some magnitude,
by New York’s foremost society leaders, and on that occasion The
Aurora issued an extra wherein was given a full account of all
proceedings.
Limited to 206 copies.

*The above are authenticated by the following letter addressed
to Mr. Hughes of Birmingham, from whose collection these valu-
able personal relics of Mr. Dickens were purchased.
“15 Edward Street, York Road, Lambeth, S. E.

“My Dean Mr. Hughes: _

interesting to retain, please accept of them from yours truly.
“William Ball.”
The letter is not dated, but Mr. Hughes has written beneath Mr.
Ball’s signature:
“Received 20th August, 1880. W. Hughes.”

with the quotation—“God be with you! I have done.--Shake-
,9
speare. This number has the envelope also addressed to Mr.
Kent.)
N. B. The ﬁrst number quoted above, viz., for Aug. 6, 1864,
is entirely in manuscript excepting the title-heading, and was most
likely written by Mr. H. F. Dickens, an Editor.
12 Numbers and 2 Supplements, as described. Privately print-
ed, 1864-5, at Gad’s Hill. $300.00
*Mr. Forster does not mention this little item in his life of
Dickens, although as such an intimate friend, he must have been
well aware of its existence. It was one of the Social institutions
of the home, and a favorite amusement of the elder children. After
a time the present of a press and type from Mr. Wills enabled the
editor to “go with the times” and produce his engaging little ama-
teur magazine in print. It was devoted to a brief record of Gad’s
Hill doings, and family intelligence; recording games of cricket, a
visit to Kenilworth, notices of the arrival and departure of guests;
the illness and convalescence of “Linda,” one of the novelist’s
canine pets, and many other topics which, having interested that
happy household, should certainly also interest those who love and
revere the memory of its lamented founder. It mentions many
close friends, as well as near neighbors, and occasional visitors.
Thus, beside the names of members of the family, we ﬁnd those
of John Leech, Messrs. Chorley, C. A. Collins, Fechter, Russell,
Forster, Stone, Fitzgerald, Halliday, etc.
It gives an account of private theatricals in which Mr. Dickens
appeared in character, and other home amusements; of pleasant
drives; and a continued story of the Continental Travels of Mr.
H. F. Dickens.
In. No. 15, AUGUST 13TH, 1864, there is an entry in blue ink, IN
THE AUTOGRAPH or CHARLES DICKENS, Eso. SENR. recording the
visit of Mr. Charles Kent; to whom all the above numbers of the
Magazine were posted immediately upon their appearance.
'1 he Magazine is so scarce, that one of his customers having had
the rare good fortune to acquire a single number (that for the 5th
of August, 1865) he most generously allowed a London bookseller
(perhaps the one of the fraternity best acquainted with Dickens’s
writings and Dickensiana), to reprint 20 copies in exact fac-simile.
56 Walter M. Hill
That very fact is sufficient to prove that such a sequence as the
one now offered (which was purchased from the family of Mr.
Kent to whom the numbers were directly sent by their editor)
MUST BE 01“ EXCESSIVE RARITY.
Mr. Croal Thompson in his “Bibliography of Dickens,” says that
Dickens himself used to write amusing storyettes and burlesque.-
correspondence for the “Gazette.” That he was a frequent con-
tributor I can not believe; that he was an occasional one is ex-
tremely probable; as we have one indisputable evidence here in
his own handwriting.

works; without studying every page of this book, long and earnest-

as description can give, the tone, the gesture, the play of feature;
not one of which adjuncts but what is essential.

This was Lamb’s ﬁrst attempt at play-writing, which_h¢ sent
to Charles Kemble in the hope of the actor’s presenting It to the
public, but Kemble promptly lost the MS., and in C095¢qu°ncc
Lamb had to write another version. In the ﬁrst letter which Lamb
wrote to Southey, alluding to it, he said, “My tragedy will be a
medley of laughter and tears—songs, wit, pathos, humor-1H "we"
send they dance not the dance of death.” It is particularly Interest-
ing as the ﬁrst evidence of Lamb’s study of the dramatic Poetry 0f
the Elizabethan age, in whose revival he bore so large a Paft'
Wm. Godwin, accidentally seeing the delicious rhymed Passage 1"
the “Forest Scene,” took it for a choice fragment from the Old
dramatists and went to Lamb to assist him in ﬁnding the author-
“The Fragments of Burton” was a mild attempt at {literary
forgery on the part of Lamb. The poem “To Helen” 15 Mary
Lamb’s ﬁrst appearance in print. Of this Lamb wrote to COICI'ldge,
Aug. 26, 1800, “How do you like this little epigram. It 11: "at my

“Mary . . . says you saw her writings about the other day,

children’s tales. Six are 5]] ready done by her, t0.wit, the ‘Tem-
831-835 Marshall Field Bldg., Chicago 89
pest,’ the ‘Winter’s Tale,’ ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream,’ ‘Much Ado
About Nothing,’ ‘The Two Gentlemen of Verona,’ and ‘Cymbeline.’
‘The Merchant of Venice’ is in forwardness. I have done ‘Othello’
and ‘Macbeth,’ and mean to do all the tragedies. I think it will
be popular among the little people, besides money. It’s to bring
sixty guineas. Mary has done them capitally, I think you’d think.”
-Lamb to Manning.
“Mary is just stuck fast in ‘All’s Well that Ends Well.’ She
complains of having to set forth so many female characters in
boy’s clothes. She begins to think Shakespeare must have wanted—
imagination! I, to encourage her (for she often faints in the
prosecution of her great work), ﬂatter her with telling her how
well such a play is done. But she is stuck fast, and I have been
obliged to promise to assist her.”—Lamb to Wordsworth.
“Those ‘Tales from Shakespeare’ are near coming out and Mary
has begun a new work.”—-Lamb to Manning.

i"Presentation Copy, inscribed by the author on title-page:—
“Mrs. Vr'illiam “Take—with the Author’s respects." There is no
doubt about this being one of the earliest copies printed; and I take
it that it is the very ﬁrst one, as it has never had the printed
“Errata” slip facing p. 160; but the corrections in this copy are
made in the autograph of the author, according to the “Errata”
slip which is in other copies, Where, through the binding pressure
its edges make two distinct marks upon the end-paper.
Further:—There are two corrections in Mr. Meredith’s autograph
upon p. 52, on line 13, which are not indicated on the slip. The
word “Peneus” is corrected to “Penéus,” with the accent; and “the
heights of” is altered to “lofty.”
It is only reasonable to conclude, that this is a copy at once for-
warded, straight from the press to the author for his inspection;
that it was carefully read over, by him, and the corrections noted,
for an Errata slip; the two very important corrections on p. 52
somehow escaping the printer’s eye, or even the author’s attention.

TION, OF THE UTMOST RARITY IN THIS
STATE. $2100.00
*Milton’s masterpiece in First Edition is, next to a ﬁrst Shake-
speare, the most important book in English literature; extremely
rare to ﬁnd with the ﬁrst title and the unaltered text combined.
The copy of “Paradise Lost” is the one with the Author’s name
printed in LARGE TYPE on the title page. While Professor
Masson classes the one with the Author’s name in smaller type as
the ﬁrst issue, the preponderance of opinion by collectors in this
country is that the one with the name in the large type is the ﬁrst
issue. Indeed, there seems to be no good reason why one of the
issues of 1667 Should be placed before the other in point of time,
and both are equally rare.
The book has been going up in price by leaps and bounds. A
copy of “Paradise Lost” was sold at Sotheby’s in 1904 for £355.00.
I think the above set one of the ﬁnest ever offered for sale.

*VValter Pater was born in 1839, and obtained his degree at
Oxford in 1862, after having passed some years of his boyhood and
early youth at the School for which this privately printed brochure
was produced.
The literary charm of its brief (all-too-brief) pages it is needless
to say anything about, except that it is not excelled by him in
better-known writings.
But of the haunting, ineﬁable, sweet sadness which pervades this
picture of a short, full, yet unfulﬁlled life, it is impossible to speak
adequately.
The vague beautiful dreams of the boy have remained with him;
gilded his life, disciplined his fancies, matured his mind; until,
the ﬁngers of the man have painted the master-piece.

Volume of “Pepysiana.” By far the nearest approach to a complete
“Pepys” which has yet appeared; and likely to remain so for a
long period. The author may be regarded as the Walpole of the
XVIIth Century.
While he has certainly not got the wit and polish of his successor,
it is as certain that his pleasant chatter is quite as informing as
\Valpole’s, while it possesses a naiveté and charm which Walpole
could never have attained.

This was Pope’s ﬁrst publication in book form, and was issued
anonymously, having been written before the author was twenty
years old. Of the poem Addison says in the Spectator, No. 253:
“It is a masterpiece of the kind;” and Dr. Johnson tells us in his
“Life of Pope :” “One of his greatest, though of his earliest, works
is the ‘Essay on Criticism,’ which, if he had written nothing else,
would have placed him among the ﬁrst critics and the ﬁrst poets,
as it exhibits every mode of excellence that can embellish or dignify
didactic composition, selection of matter, novelty of arrangement,
justness of precept, splendour of illustration, and propriety of
digression.”

" “Masks and Faces”:~—On 26 of the 71 pp. of the book are very
numerous passages altered, added to, or deleted, by Charles Reade’s
own hand; many of the corrections being of quite an important
character. It would appear from one or two passages in auto-
graph, that the play had been thoroughly gone through with the
view of ﬁtting it for translation and a production upon the French
stage. In the admirable scene where Mrs. Wofﬁngton plays the
831-835 Marshall Field Bldg., Chicago 109
part of her own painted portrait, which the wiseacre players (sit-
ting as a board of criticism) pronounce so untrue to nature, until
the fair original confounds them all, by stepping out of the frame;
Mr. Reade has written on the margin of this copy :—“If as I sus-
pect the repartees of Triplet are untranslateable substitute some-
thing but let him have his cut at each.”
In “Two Loves and a Life,” there are alterations of greater or
less signiﬁcance upon all the following pages: I to II, 13 to 27,
and 33; after which the task appears to have been relinquished.
Some there are, no doubt, who have never seen “Masks and
Faces” played; but there are few to whom the delightful “Peg
_ VVoﬁ-lngton” of Reade’s novel is unknown. It was one of the au-
thor’s own favourites; and is relished in the book, almost as thor-
oughly as upon the stage.

*This is an exceptionally ﬁne and clean set. “Richardson has
sent me his ‘History of Sir Charles Grandison,’ which amuses me.
It is too long, and there is too much mere talk in it. Whenever
he goes, ultra crepidum, into high life he grossly mistakes the
modes; but to do him justice, he never mistakes nature, and he has
surely great knowledge and skill both in painting and interesting
the heart.”—Lord Chesterﬁeld.

*These lovely volumes are the perfection of English bindings;
rich but immaculately chaste; and the preservation tells us how
jealously their custodian cared for them. On the fly-leaf of Vol.

doubt that they were bound according to his own directions.

554. ROSSETTI (DANTE GABRIEL). The Germ.
Thoughts towards Nature in Poetry, Literature, and Art. 4 etch-

lished—with all the wrappers, bound by Riviere, in one volume,
in dark green crushed levant morocco, richly gilt back, sides gilt
with a floral pattern with inlays of another color, gilt top. Lon-
don, 1850. $200.00
* First Edition. Fine and clean copy, with the slip on the ﬁrst
two numbers pasted over the original title of the Germ, and con-
taining the second title of “Art and Poetry.” The original wrap-
pers to the parts are of the greatest importance as containing the
contents and names of the contributors (they not appearing else-
where, nor was any other contents ever issued) and also as con-
taining the varying addresses to the public, and the errata. The
four parts include 50 poems and articles, written by Dante Gabriel
Rossetti, Christina Rossetti, W'. M. Rossetti, \V. Bell Scott, Thomas-
\Voolner, Ford Madox Brown, and Coventry Patmore. The most
famous of all the poems is Rossettl’s Blessed Damozel, which ap-
pears here in its ﬁrst form, the author later changing it somewhat.
The present copy was the property of the printer, G. F. Tapper,
who ﬁnanced the undertaking until its abrupt termination, and in-
serted is an interesting letter by him referring to it.
“In the early months of 1850 the members of~ the Preraphaelite-
Brotherhood, with the co-operation of some friends, brought out a
short lived magazine named ‘The Germ’ (afterwards ‘Art and
Poetry’). Here appeared the ﬁrst verses and the ﬁrst prose pub-
lished by Rossetti, including the First Edition of Rossetti, ‘Blessed
Damozel’ (subsequently much altered), ‘My Sister’s Sleep,’ ‘From
the Cliffs-Noon’ (afterwards called ‘Sea Limits’), ‘The Casilon,’
‘Pax Vobis’ and ‘Hand and Soul,’ besides six sonnets; also contri-
butions from W. M. Rossetti (The Editor), Christina Rossetti,
Coventry Patmore, Ford Madox Brown, etc.”
This little magazine, a set of which is a rare bibliographical
curiosity, has a signiﬁcance of a very marked kind. It is all fra-
grant of sincere and enthusiastic youth and artistic purpose. It
suggests a whole background of ardent and impulsive ﬁgures, im-
pressed by a generous emotion, and determined to see things with
their own eyes and to say them in their own way. Thus though
the little pages are gloriﬁed by the distinction which so many of
the group afterwards achieved, ‘The Germ’ has a real and intrinsic
value of its own. Benson’s Life of Rossetti.

" First Edition of the Pre-Raphaelite Tennyson, now scarce. Ten-
nyson and Moxon projected this edition, and it is believed to have
been at the poet’s suggestion that the artists were chosen. The
illustrations include the Lady of Shalott, by Hunt and Rossetti;
The Palace of Art (2), by Rossetti; Mariana in the South, and
Sir Galahad, by the same; Holman Hunt contributed Oriana (2),
Lady Godiva, The Beggar Maid, and two others; Millais drew
the pictures for Mariana, Dream of Fair Women (2), Dora (2),
St. Agnes Eve, Locksley Hall, and several others. Rossetti’s de-

831-835 Marshall Field Bldg., Chicago 111
signs are fewer than the others by the Brotherhood owing to his
procrastination and the many corrections and alterations he made
during the engravings of the blocks, absolutely refusing to ap-
prove anything that did not express exactly the idea conveyed by
his drawing. As Rossetti’s art was distinguished by its indepen-
dence of rules and conventionalities, so may these illustrations of his
be found not strictly adhering to the letter of the text, but have
to be considered as examples of the spirituality and intensity of
feeling which were the aim of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood at
their best period. Holman Hunt’s Lady of Shalott, Rossetti’s St.
Cecelia, and Sir Galahad, the sweetness and simplicity of Millais’
St. Agnes and Edward Gray stand forth prominently among the
illustrations. Other artists were Stanﬁeld, Mulready, Horseley, etc.
Thomas VVoolner contributed the portrait of Tennyson. '

*Fine copy of the ﬁrst and only edition. The publication of
these “letters” disclosed one of the most ingenious literary forgeries
of modern times. Not only in the hand-writing, but in other de-
tails, they were so carefully executed that they deceived eminent
experts, and Browning was induced to write a lengthy introduc-
tory essay on the life and genius of Shelley. The genuineness of
the letters was ﬁrst called in question by Mr. F. T. Palgrave, who
saw the book at Tennyson’s house, and accidentally opened it at a
passage which he recognized as taken from an article contributed
‘by his father to the Quarterly Review. Little by little the net-
work of fraud was unravelled. The book was rigidly suppressed
and the remaining copies were destroyed, and, as only a few
copies had got into circulation, it is now very rare. The forgery
is attributed to George Byron, said to be the natural son of Byron
and the Maid of Athens.

*That Medwin’s Life of the poet is full of errors, is one of the
earliest statements in the preface; which then alludes to a painful
circumstance relating to a publication (unnamed) on Shelley, based
upon documents committed to the author by the family; which
“astonished and shocked those who have the greatest right to form
an opinion on the character of Shelley.” Lady Shelley also speaks
of forged letters of the poet. This volume should carry greater
weight than most books concerning Shelley.

friend H. Halhed he made translations of Theocritus (never print—
ed) and of these they soon afterward added English versions
(in verse) of the Love Epistles of Aristhenaetus. The latter have
been recently published in the same volume with (recent transla-
tions of) the Elegies of Propertius, the Satyricon of Petronius Ar-
biter, and the Kisses of Johannes Secundus. . . . The ﬁrm also
produced a play. . . . None of these however were given to the
world, save the Love Epistles, which were published, but not sold,
and great was the disappointment of the youthful authors.”

“All these, and all that els the Comick Stage,
With seasoned wit and goodly pleasance graced;
By which man’s life is his likest image,
Was limned forth, are wholly now defaced;
And those sweet wits which wont the like to frame,
Are now despized and made a laughing game.
And he the man whom nature self had made
To mock herself, and truth to imitate
With kindly counter under mimick shade,
Our pleasant Willy, ah, is dead of late,
With whom all joy and jolly merriment
Is also dreaded and in dolour drent.”

the two stanzas of “Felise” on page 22, printed in a different type
from that used for the balance of the work. The cloth covers
contain the publishers’ cipher on the front. The original appear-
ance of “Poems and Ballads” was met by such a whirlwind of

public that they were unaware of the nature of the poems they had
laid before the public, and suppressed the edition before it got into

‘“The First Series of “Poems and Ballads” was greeted by a
portion of the press with a bowl of real or stimulated indignation.
The timid Moscow, obeying perhaps the scrupulousness of the cir-
culating libraries, yielded the whole remainder of his stock to
Hotten, who continued its issue without deleting a line or a word
of the original. The text of “Notes on Poems and Reviews” is to
be found in half a line addressed to its adverse. reviewersz—“Ma
corruption rougirait de leur pudeur!”

without any indication of its being a second.

4"This is one of the earliest and most outspoken of Mr. Swin-
burne’s Revolutionary and Republican utterances, and, although,
in later writings his views have been modiﬁed, it is supposed that
the laureateship would have been ﬁlled by him at the present time,
but for these earlier productions This Poem was included in the
First Edition of “Songs of Two Nations,” published in 1875.
The edition printed was a very limited one, and it has never been
reprinted in separate form.

" A word of explanation, as to the use above of the words: “First
Edition.” It seems that the work was written when Mr. Swinburne
was only twenty-four years of age; that it was published serially,
under the title, “A Year’s Letters,” and the author’s name hidden
under the pseudonym of “Mrs. Horace Manners;” also that an
American piracy was issued in or about 1890. The “Athenaeum”
of August 5, 1905, notices the present publication, in an article of
ﬁve columns, mainly of high eulogy. This is the First Edition,
published by the author, with his name on the title-page.

*Only 100 copies printed, all on Japanese paper. Certiﬁed and

are “To Edward Lear on his travels in Greece,” The Place of
Art, The Daisy, with an Introduction by Franklin Lushington.
The illustrations are twenty-two Landscapes by Lear, portrait of
Tennyson by G. F. Watts, R. A., and portrait of Lear, twenty-four
in all, reproduced in Goupilgravure by Boussod, Valadon 8: Co.,
by whom both plates and text were printed at Asnieres, near Paris.
Through many years Lear set apart a selected series of designs,
which he labeled Landscape illustrations of Tennyson of which
these here published are a sample. They are Lear’s Sermons on
texts taken from Tennyson’s Introduction. This is got up with a
view of carrying out to some extent a long cherished dream of
Lear’s never realized of associating in a larger publication his
name with that of the Poet’s.

Tennyson’s medical attendant and friend. Each volume contains
the ex-libris of Mr. Clement Scott; and a very interesting autograph
letter signed, accompanies the set from the doctor presenting it to
Mr. Scott. The substance of the letter I append.
“Dear Mr. Scott, I was much touched by your kind words in
todays D. T. . . . I wonder if as one literary man to another you
will mind my sending you a collection of Tennyson’s works of a
very handy size which he gave me. . . . No thanks are needed I
assure you—the Poet Laureate has been very good and kind to me
—and I should like to think the last gift Mr. Tennyson ever gave
me will while away for you now and again an idle hour.
“Yours sincerely,
“G. Doses.

THE CUP
The rare Privately Printed First Edition, small 8vo, original
wrappers, uncut. London, Printed for the Author, 1881. $200.00
*The excessively rare privately printed ﬁrst edition. The work
was not issued for general publication till 1884, when it was in-
cluded in “The Falcon and the Cup.” Speaking of it in his Bibli-
ography of Tennyson, Richard Herne Shepherd says: “The Cup”
—a Classical drama—was produced at the Lyceum, in 1881.
Neither of these plays (The Falcon and the Cup) had been pub-
lished at the time; and it therefore seems probable that a small
edition of both was privately printed, for the use of the actors,
etc. I merely hazard this as a conjecture, but do not possess
special information on the subject; still less did I ever see or
hear of a copy of either.” Extremely rare, being one of a very few
copies which were privately printed for the author’s use.

the Editor” (from Dorothea Ramsbottom in the same number, a
Parody upon Haynes Bauley’s “I’d be a Butterfly,” entitled “Mod-
ern Songs, N0. 5,” commencing “I’d be a tadpole born in a
puddle”). This is signed with his Greek theta. Mr. Johnson
says that they “are the only papers which can with certainty be
attributed to Thackeray;” but the reader acquainted with his
earlier effusions will pause long before the other papers and have
them still in doubt. '
The above is in a ﬁne state of preservation, and enclosed in a
full brown levant slip case.
The only other copy in the original parts that I think has ever
turned up for sale was one offered in New York City by a book-
seller, and which included The Snob and The Gownsman, was
priced $1750.00 and sold to a collector some four years ago.

*The very rare ﬁrst edition, with all the full-page illustrations.
Thackeray’s ﬁrst book, and very interesting for this reason, also
for its being so entirely his work, having been not only written,
but illustrated by him. It is curious, like Dickens’s ﬁrst books,
“Sketches by B02.” Thackeray’s ﬁrst book was published by the
same printer, John Macrone, I840.

*Of great rarity in the original cloth. “This book, like most
of Thackeray’s early works, did not sell well at ﬁrst, but after
he had made his name as the author of ‘Vanity Fair,’ the stock was
looked up, and a new title-page printed, which refers to the writer
as the author of ‘Vanity Fair,’ etc., and bears no date. Care must
therefore be taken that the title corresponds exactly with that set
out above. It is now one of the rarest and most sought after of
Thackeray’s works.”—C. Plumptre Johnson.

FOREWORD
An Autograph Catalogue whose muster begins with a
letter, somewhat troubled and a triﬂe fretful, of John Adams ’8,
ends with a very emphatic note of Artemus Ward’s, and in-
cludes letters of Stevenson, Southey, Carlyle, and Thomas
Campbell should at least possess variety of matter to tempt
the fastidious.
The collection of Letters and Signatures here oﬁered is a
rather heterogeneous one, but that is more a charm than
otherwise to the hunter of out of the way bits. Such a Cat-
alogue has the fascination of a peering and poking in a curio
shop instead of being conducted through a well-ordered regu-
lation establishment for bijouterie and objets d’art which are
each and all on their proper shelves . . . nothing early Eng-
lish out of place beside an Egyptian Scarab, nothing so ir-
regular as a wrought cup of the Renaissance permitted be-
side a pewter candlestick of the Colonial period in America.
Here it is quite otherwise. However, it is hoped that nothing
untoward shall happen to the immortals. Nor further is it
designed that anything but good shall befall them in that the
Catalogue is brief. The sooner may you decide upon the
letter or manuscript which pleases, and straightway seize
upon it.
Here are Burns and Byron and Bernadotte all represented.
Included is a charming letter of Coleridge containing a joke
and a congratulation upon twins happening to his friend . . .
and volunteering to sing diverse nursery lyrics to those babies
when he should see them. It makes a sweet, livable, lovable
man out of that dreamy metaphysician to read this letter and
realize that though he could sing of Christabel, of Kubhla
Khan, and of a damsel with a dulcimer, he could sing Simple
Simon and little Nancy Etticote in a white petticoat too.
It gives one what Pomona of Rudder Grange (long may her
memory keep green!) calls “prickles of feelings” to read a
letter of Robert Louis Stevenson ’s . . . and in a Catalogue to
4 WALTER M. HILL

see a letter of Garﬁeld’s come in between a document signed
by the ﬁrst Francis of France and a mandate of the fourth
George of England. Mighty royal ﬁne company for that quiet
gentleman, and all because he must be arranged alphabetically.
Alexander Hamilton side by side with Warren Hastings pre-
sents no such ineongruity, for each would have recognized in
the other enough to make him wondrous kind. Noting a
manuscript of James Hogg’s sets one to thinking of Noctes
Ambrosianae and the Ettrick Shepherd’s verses there. Many
lines of peculiar beauty are contained in them, hard to pro-
nounce in the Scotch dialect and prickly like a Scotch thistle,
but full ofthat same thistle ’s wild fragrance of the country
road.
Two Lincoln items (coming right before Louis XIV!) catch
the eye and the imagination. One is a letter from a Southern
renegade who had accepted, and subsequently deserted, a com-
mission in the Confederate Army from Kirby Smith; he writes
asking to be forgiven by Lincoln and pardoned for the one,
and commended for the other. The other letter to Lincoln
is in the French language begging mercy and pardon for hav-
ing engaged in a duel in the state of Louisiana and selecting
an “adversaire” who was inconsiderate enough to die.
Thackeray, Thoreau, Trollope, Wellington, and the great
John Wesley are all represented in these pages, appearing
strangely in their alphabetical places on the list. Each pre-
ceded and followed by distinguished personages in whose
neighborhood they would never have been of their own choice.
Thus at the knees of the Gods, on the banks of the Styx, and
in the pages of a Catalogue gathers alike a motley crowd.

Sir:
I had yesterday the pleasure of your letter of the 4th inst., by Cap-
tain Price, for which as well as a former kind letter I heartily thank you.
The Report you mention that Congress have resolved upon a free trade
is so far from being true that you must have seen by the public Papers
before now that they have resolved to stop all Trade untill next March.
What will be done then time will discover, etc., etc.
You are anxious for Arnold, so are we, and for Montgomery too, un-
till this day, when an express has brought us the repulsing news of the
Capitulation of St. Johns—for Arnold I am anxious still—God grant
him success. My compliments to Gen. Ward and his Family. I am
with Respect your very humble servant.
Signed. John Adams.

You seem to wish for Independence. Do the Resolves for Privateer-
ing and opening the Ports satisfy you, if not let me know what will!
Will nothing do, but a positive Declaration that we never will be
reconciled upon any Terms?
It requires Time to bring the Colonies all of one Mind but Time will
do it— I

“I really found it too hard to acknowledge your kind present of the
Books—on the surprise and sorrow that followed my becoming acquaint-
ed with the calamity which has befallen you, and of which I was in com-
plete ignorance: . . . . I ﬁnd myself still as incapable as ever of say-
ing more than the obvious and heart-felt ‘ God console you—for man must
not even endeavour in such a case!’
Why add that you have the deepest sympathy from yours, most truly,
Robert Browning.”
Note:-—The letter probably was written immediately upon hearing
of the death of Mrs. Kent. Mr. Kent was a long-time friend of Dickens
also.

mencing:—‘ ‘ Here ’s a bottle and an honest friend! ’ ’-—-These lines appear
in the Eight Vol. Edition of Cunningham’s, 1834; in Vol. VIII, p. 215,
but they are preceded in the MS. by two lines probably intended as a
chorus to the above verse. These two lines are:
“There’s nane that’s blest of human kind
But the cheerful and the gay man—Fal, la], &c.’ ’
There are nine lines devoted to two jests, both almost unprintable,
but plainly Burns in the vein that he often indulges, and as much
Burns as “To Mary in Heaven,” or “Bonnie Lesliex” are,. and an
irresistible Burns no matter how or where.
On the reverse page are four 4-line verses of a song entitled
“Katharine J affray’ ’ alive with the familiar Hit and swing of his merry
muse:
“There lived a lass in yonder dale,
And down in yonder glen; 0
And Katharine J aﬁray was her name
Well known to many men. 0”
This is not found in Cunningham’s Edition.
14 BYRON (Loam—Poet). A. L. S. 1 page, post 8vo, with
the address, (also in his autograph), cut from ﬁy-leaf of
the letter. Date—circa 1819-1821. $50.00
“My dear Sir,
I think Mr. Lambert is right. Some inconvenience might certainly
arise from any other mode than that now proposed by me; but there
can be none in making the expenses a joint concern; and to this I
cheerfully agree.” &c.
Signed :—‘ ‘ Most Sincerely Yours,
“J. Perry, Esq., Morning Chronicle Ofﬁce. N. Byron.”
Notez—The date approximately given above is derived from the
water-mark, 1819; coupled with the fact that Mr. Perry died in 1821.
The Mr. Lambert mentioned was, I believe, the printer of the “Morning
Chronicle,” of which Mr. Perry was Editor and proprietor.

“Very neat and desirable letter asking Pepys to assist a friend into
a place in the Navy Yard. UNPUBLISHED.
An engaging letter. He wants Mr. Dummer “ﬁx’d here,” giving
several reasons, winding up with “Thus you see how far my selfe in-
terest extends nor will you reprove it, if I rather wish that (by Mr.
Pepys) I might have the Neighbourhood of an ingenious man (whom
I could sometimes converse with) than of persouns I have so little rea~
son to Esteeme either for their Neighbourhoods or their morals: But
all this in perfect submission to those better reasons by which you all-
ways gouvern.”
Somebody it seemed had been talking scandal to Mr. Evelyn: Therefore
he desires him removed from his “Neighborhood, " and “an ingenious
man” with whom his tastes were congenial substituted. This from one
prince of scandal-mongers to another is delicious.

This letter of Lincoln’s has enclosed in the same envelope 9. letter of
the William Drake referred to written to Gen. Green Clay Smith:
“Dear Sir on September last while the Rebels were in Kentucky, I
in a state of excitement accepted a commission from Kirby Smith
etc.”
Drake “in a state of excitement” had taken an order of commission
from Gen. Kirby Smith, and afterwards like Eugene Fields’ dog was in
“a state of regret for the vittles he et” and backed out of being a
“rebel,” and wanted to be forgiven. Lincoln pardoned him, the record
that he did is shown by an inscription on the upper margin of Drake ’s
letter—but there is no record to show what he thought of the “loyal
citizen” and his “state of excitement.”

57 ———-—A. L. S. of Alexandre Valliaux. March 3, 1864.
San Andres, Mexico. $25.00
Alexandre Valliaux writes to the President asking that he may per-
mit him to return to the United States from whence he has been
absent since 1853 by reason of his killing a man in a duel at Attakapas
near Vermillionville, La.
The envelope containing this letter bears a Lincoln inscription.
The letter addressed to “Monsieur Le Presidente des Etats Unis”
relates in what manner Monsieur Valliaux’ “adversaire” met his death,
and how the honest gentleman who killed him ﬂed “deux jours apres
le combat, pour eviter de nouvelles disputes avec la famille” of the
injured, but not then dead, ‘adversaire,’—-as he says “je quittai
les Etats Unis.” He goes on to tell in very artless French
how in fact it was not his blow that slew his enemy but that foolish
one ’s exposure to “une subite vent de Nord.” The letter relates fur-
ther the subsequent exemplary life of the writer and winds up with a
really pathetic plea to be allowed to come back to close the eyes of an
old father and to gladden the breast of a poor young wife who awaits
him. He got his pardon. He should have. The letter was worth it.

Chamillart was at one time Comptroller of Finance for Louis le

tained these high situations from his skill at playing billiards, a game
of which His Majesty was particularly fond. Chamillart was not much
of a Cabinet Minister, his wit lay at the hitting-end of a cue. At his
death the following epitaph was written by a certain French gentle-
men who perhaps was neither good at Billiards or oﬂ'ices of state:

Interesting.
Amelia Pickering was the author of a poetical translation of the
“Sorrows of Werther” in a day when it was thought highly improper
for a “genteel female” to read so ungenteel a novel, that she dared
not only to read but to translate it affectineg was the means of giving
it and, incidentally, herself much popularity. This receipt is given for
the sum of one guinea in payment for two copies of The Sorrows of
Werther. .
Receipt signed by Matthew Pilkington, Feb. 22, 1749, given to the

well known ease with which Sheridan was always able to pass on to
somebody else the privilege of paying his debts. His nonchalance was
only exceeded by his inability in every case where mere money was
involved.

Dear Mr Watts,

now too long due.
20 WALTER M. HILL

I wish to thank you for your notice of Kidnapped; and that not be-
cause it was kind, though for that also I valued it; but in the same sense
as I have thanked you before now for a hundred articles on a hundred
different writers.
A critic like you is one who ﬁghts the good ﬁght, contending with
stupidity, and I would fain hope not all in vain. In my own case for
instance, surely not in vain.
What you say of the two parts in Kidnapped was felt by no one more
painfully than by myself.
I began it partly as a lark, partly as a pot-boiler; and suddenly it
moved, David and Alan stepped out from the canvas, and I found I was
in another world. But there was the cursed beginning and a cursed end
must be appended; and “our old friend Boyles the Butcher was plainly
audible tapping at the back door. So it had to go into the world, one
part (as it does seem to me) alive, one part merely galvanized; no work,
only an essay,
For a man of tentative method, and weak health and a scarcity of
private means, and not too much of that frugality which is the artists
proper virtue, the days of sinecures and patrons look very golden; the
days of professional literature very hard. Yet I do not so far deceive
myself as to think I should change my character by changing my epoch;
the sum of virtue in our books is in a relation of equality to the sum of
virtues in ourselves; and my Kidnapped was doomed, while still in the
womb and while I was yet in the cradle, to be the thing it is.
And now to the more genial business of defence. You attack my
ﬁght on board the Covenant. I think it literal. David and Alan had
every advantage on their side, position, arms, training, good conscience;
a handful of merchant sailors, not well led in the ﬁrst attack, not led
at all in the second, could only by an accident have taken the round-
house by attack; and since the defenders had ﬁre arms and food, it is
even doubtful if they could have been starved out.
The only doubtful point with me is whether the seamen could have
ever ventured on the second onslaught; I half believe they would not;
still the illusion of numbers and the authority of Hoseason would per-
haps stretch far enough to justify the extremity.
I am, dear Mr Watts,
Your very sincere admirer

81 THACKERAY (W. M.). Original Autograph Manu-
script. Two 5-line verses. Each one signed by Thack-
eray. They were ﬁrst written in an Album. Afterwards
Thackeray expanded the two verses into six, called them
“Love at Two Score,” and printed them in his inimitable
“Rebecca and Rowena.” $100.00
( 1) “Experto Credi.
The reddest lips that ever have kissed,
The brightest eyes that ever have shown,
May pray and whisper and we not list,
Or look away and never be missed,
Ere yet ever a month be gone.
W. M. Thackeray.”
(2) “Requiescant.
Gillian ’s dead. Heaven rest her bier!
How I loved her twenty years sync!
Marian ’s married, but I sit here
Alone and merry at forty year
Dipping my nose in the Gascon wine.

The two headings, “Experto Credi” and “Requiescant,” were not
used in the expanded version. Here are the verses exactly as he wrote
them the ﬁrst time.

& 10) dined with my wife & notes as to his writing for
Punch. $100.00
This was shortly before he began writing Vanity Fair. The entry
too “dined with my wife” has its pathos for those who know that at
that very time she had been taken to a place where her pitiful malady
might receive attention and the strictest care.
83 THOREAU (HENRY D.). A Book of Extracts mostly
poetic. Here and there a note of explanation or crit-
icism. Entirely in handwriting of Thoreau. 361
pages. $200.00
Thoreau seems to have liked, as many do, to keep a blank book
and in it write down favorite poems, or extracts from favorite authors.
It is very interesting as showing the trend of his reading and pointing
an index ﬁnger towards some hidden springs of feeling and sentiment
in the shy and quiet Thoreau. Fragments copied from Ben Jonson,
from Chaucer, from Aristotle, from Goethe, from Pythagoras, from
Herrick, from Spenser, from Bailey’s Festus, from Marlowe, from
Quarles; a mosaic of all literatures and all time.
The book is a small folio, bound in old sheepskin. An entire short
poem is sometimes on one page. Many of the pages could be taken out
and inserted or laid in a volume of Thoreau, lending it an added in-
terest and sentiment.

Acts. 131 pages. Sm. 4to, half russia, with title lettered
on back. C., 1851. $150.00
This Comedy was submitted to Mr. Bartley, formerly Stage-Manager
at Covent Garden. Mr. Bartley looked at it and pronounced it bad.
He says so in a letter dated 1851. This letter is preserved inside its
envelopes at the end of the volume. On the back of the envelope Trol-
lope himself states that his Comedy was a tragedy as far as suitability
was concerned in the opinion of Mr. Bartley, and adds with apparent
calm that that gentleman was “an excellent judge of what a play ought
to be. ’ ’
At this time he had written three novels, with all of which the public
had been pleased. He took his whipping simply, realized, it seems, that
his Play-Writing was a mistake, and showed his real genius by never
making the same mistake twice.

VERY SCARCE. Perhaps no book in any language was ever the parent of so
many imitations and the source of so many ctions as this history of the
Buccaneers of America. The importance of this book is plain to every one
who knows only one-tenth of the novels, imaginary voyages, books for ouths,
and for other peo 1c, comedies and tragedies which have been taken rom it
by almost every uropean nation. here is certain] no other book of that
time which experienced a popularity to that of the uccaneers of ,America.

One of the surprising things in modern literature, _considering the demand
for writing of the so-called Kipling style, is that this book has never been
reprinted in late years, and is almost unknown' to the present generation.

pretty legtnds that cluster round the lives of the saints and martyrs, and
which have formed the subject of so many works of art by the great masters
of Italy, the Netherlands, and Germany, are told in a most interesting manner
during a criticism and description of the pictures themselves. In the same
way the legends of the Madonna and the history of the life of Jesus as de-
picted in the ever memorable works of the great masters of art, are set forth

Audubon’s matchless series of bird pictures was pronounced by Cuvier “the
most magniﬁcent monument that art ever raised to Ornithology.” This still
remains true. despite the numerous works since issued. The observation of
Bird Life was a passion with Audubon, even from his childhood. and after
spending some years as a student under the celebrated painter, David, in Paris,
he returned home and commenced a series of solitary excursions through the
vast primeval forests, where he spent the greater portion of many years. It
was then he made these superb drawings from life, comprising the whole
range of American birds. from the tiniest humming bird to the gigantic
turkey; likewise the plants, trees and insects wherewith he so appropriately
accompanied them.

The elder Disraeli, who generally indulged in fools' talk, when he turned to

The writer has read Bayle from beginning to end, so he speaks what he
thinks, he will not give his views further than to say that the individual engaged
in the arduous pursuit of the law will ﬁnd the perusal Of Bayle promotes a

Born in 1752, and dying in 1840, eighty-eight years were. the generous
measure of life allowed to this gifted woman. Her novels, (the ﬁrst of which,
written almost by stealth, and meagerly rewarded with twenty pounds as its
price,) will always be collected; as also, but by a much wider public, her
monumental "Diary." In early life the petted friend of Johnson and his
circle; later—immured in the splendid prison of a regal Court, her experiences
were vast and varied. '
Her legacy of recollections is one of the most entertaining‘and enlightening
in our literature: and will be read as long as Walpole, Hervey, Miss Berry,
Madame de Sevigne, or any other famous diarist or letter-writer.
It is crowded with living ﬁgures, the ﬁgures of men and women whom it ws
a privilege to see at a distance.

newly and handsomely bound in half polished calf gilt, gilt tops,
uncut. London, Murray, 1832-33. . . _ _ _
The prettiest edition ever issued, and the plates in this—the original—issue
are gems of the engraver's art, and vastly superior to those of any of the
many reprints of it. The difﬁculty of procuring a set of this issue, With
the plates unspotted, is onl known to those who have tried to get one. and no
one particular on those points should miss the opportunity here presented.

Perhaps no name of modern times is productive of so many pleasant associa-
tions as that of “Horace Walpole,” and certainly no name was ever more
intimately connected with so many different subjects of importance in con-
nection with Literature, Art, Fashion, and Politics. The position of various
members of his family connecting Horace Walpole wth the Cabinet, the Court.
and the Legislature—his own intercourse with those characters who became
remarkable for brilliant social and intellectual qualitiesw-and his reputation
as a Wlit, a Scholar, and a Virtuoso, cannot fail, it is hoped, to render his
Memoirs equally amusing and instructive.

An exhaustive and sumptuous book, produced at a great cost, on the fascinat-
ing Empire of the East. Every aspect of life in Japan is minutely treated
and illustrated with several hundred photographs, each one accuratel and
carefully colored. A history of the rise and progress of painting and ecora-
tion from the 8th century to the present time, with biographical sketches
of the noted painters and a list of their marks and signs, forms a feature
of the work that is of the greatest importance and value.

The author was Envoy-Extraordinary from this country to Ja an, and his
book on the country is one of the best ever written. It deas very fully
with the scenery, town life, villages, manners and customs of the people,

This, also, is a very important work on Japan, and its author incurred some
severe criticism for championing Japanese views on international questions,
which most British people sympathise with now. 'But the chief value of the
work lies in its information concerning the history of the country, and the
manners, customs, occupations, social condition, and religious beliefs of the
people.

This work is full of scandal respecting the principal members of the aristoc-
racy of that period, and includes the names of some of the noblest in the,
land, not excepting Members of the Royal Family. 7
From the freedom with which the acts of these personages are discussed,
and the extremely slender nature of the disguises, it is highly probable that
most of the copies were destroyed by the parties interested in the suppression
of the scandalous rumours. The book is, therefore, excessively rare.

In his “Library Companion” Didbin justly describes this as the “VERY BEST

their paucity, nor overwhelm by the length of extraneous and merely curious
matter, but go directly to the point at issue and are full of satisfactory in-
telligence on all material points involved in a consideration of the more
obscure or important passages of the text." In conclusion, the celebrated
litte'rateur remarks, “To read Ben Jonson in any other edition is to stand
upon our head to look at a prospect.” The same criticism still applies, for
Giﬁ‘or ’s works has even been equalled by any subsequent editor, and no
printer has ever issued an edition of it comparable with this. the original one.

A handsome edition, printed on rough, wide-margined paper in clear-cut
type, and beautifully illustrated by Aubrey Beardsley in that hold. quaint
style which he made so peculiarly his own. It is the most original and pro-
fusely illustrated edition of the immortal romance, and it will always hold
a high place in the affections of both lovers of the beautiful Arthurian
legend, and of the admirers of Beardsley's art. The former esteem it be-
cause the pictorial embellishments are wonderful mystic interpretations.en-
tirely in accord with the spirit of the text; the latter value it because it_ia
the most important book Beardsley illustrated. and the one which gave him
a deﬁnite reputation. The drawings also exhibit his art in his ﬁrst and per-
haps happiest stage, before he_had become over-fond of the grotesque and
even the unsavoury. “He who reads Malory for the ﬁrst time is always en-
viable; but he is thrice lucky if he so reads him in such an edition as this."

that was more than a succes d' estime.” The ﬁrst edition is now much prized

it is only at very long intervals that copies occu. for sale.

SYMONS (Arthur). The'Romantic Movement in English
Poetry. Small 8vo. cloth, uncut. London, 1909. $4.C0.
In this volume Mr. Symons deals with our romantic poetry by poets mainly
born between the accession of George III. and the year 1800. The year
1800 is taken as a sort of centre. It also serves as a barrier, shutting out
every writer of verse born after that year. Within limits which the author
London,
.thus deemed best to limit arbitrarily, a touch-stone is applied to each individual
writer of verse in chronological order.
TENNYSON (Lord Alfred). A Memoir, by his Son. FIRs'r
EDITION, with several beautiful photOgrazrure portraits and other il-
lustrations, facsimiles of “Crossing the Bar,” from the original MS. ,
2 vols., 8vo, cloth, as new. London. 1897. .
If I may venture to speak of his special inﬂuence over the world, my con-
viction is that his main and enduring factors are: his power of expression,
the perfection of his workmanship, his strong common sense, and his helpful
sympathy. '
TENNYSON: The New Edition of Lord Tennyson’s Com-
plete Works, including the Large Biography by his Son, illustrated
with 8 ﬁne portraits of Lord Tennyson, 4 photogravure views of
Somersby Rectory, Farringford, and the Study Window, Aldworth,
and 5 facsimiles of Original MS. 12 vols., 8vo, original silk cloth,
gilt tops, UNCUT. London. 1898-99. 00
A very handsome set of this beautiful “Edition de Luxe” printed with good
type upon Antique Paper specially manufactured for this edition, and the
issue was strictly limited to 1050 copies.
It is an ideal edition—immeasureably superior to any edition of Tennyson’s
\Vorks ever published—and one that is never likely to he surpassed, either
for editorial correctness. or gracefulness of format. It is uniform with the
“fEdition de Luxe" of Lamb, 'Pater, Kipling, and Stevenson, and is now out
0 print.

This eriodical is ublished quarterly, each number containing not less than 96
pages. he design 0 the work is to gather up and place in a permanent form the
scattered and decaying records of the domestic, civil, literary reli 'ous and pol' al
life of the pe0ple of the United States and particularly of ew ngland; to r ue
from oblivion the illustrious deeds and virtues of our ancestors; to perpetuate their
honored names, and to trace out and preserve the enealogy and pedigree of their
families. To this end the Register contains Biofgrapbies of distinguished men; Gen-
ealogies of American families; Transcriptions 0 Church, Town, County and Court
Records; Historical Memoranda from interleaved Almanacs, family- Bibles, old Ac-
count Books, etc.; Ancient Private Journals and Letters; Centennial Celebrations,
Marriages and Deaths, Notes and Queries, etc.
"Almost every week I ﬁnd occasion to search the indexes for historical or geneal-
ogical material not to be found elsewhere, and which, but for the Register. would
not have been preserved. The promises of its projectors have been more than ful-
ﬁlled. Ever succeeding volume enhancees the value of the series as a work of
reference. 1):: students it is no longer merely a convenience; it has become a neces-
sity.”-—J. Hammond.
“When we wish to trace any given name Mr. Savage's Dictionary will be our
ﬁrst resource, and if wanting there, one other authority remains to be appealed to
(the New England Historical and Genealogical Register), after which all but the
most enthusiastic will rest assured that the family is of recent origin.”—-S. G. Drake.

“A MASQUE OF LOVE,” by Charles Erskine Scott Wood, is a blank verse
poem of unusual interest. It is in three parts. The ﬁrst has for its subject
instinctive love, such as was known in the twilight of the gods. The second con-
fesses to the perplexity which arises when these impulses of the free heart are
bound by laws, and the consequent crime and doom that follow. The third pre-
sents a climax in love reﬁned by other elements, leavened by friendship, chastened
by suﬁering, and made steadfast by reﬂection.
{The idea is one of those that admits of strong individual treatment, and the
power of it is to be measured by the method of its presentation. The greatest
of poets might not be ashamed to undertake this theme. And it can be truthfully
said that Mr. Wood has approached his subject with passionate intensity, with
ardent temperament, and facile eloquence.
The climax is a temperate one. It shows man submissive to nature and receiv-
ing instruction from her; shows him making himself amenable to his own laws,
and tempering all the cruel. revelations of life with his patience, his fortitude,
and his good will. He rises above the half god of the ﬁrst part and the arrogant ‘
overman of the second by his power of intellect, which, in the face of any adver-
sity would still keep him free. His joys have gone the round of experience,
included sorrow, taken cognizance of death, and reached again the goal of joy.
It is a pleasure to commend this poem to lovers of blank verse; for if it suffers
at the last from lack of dramatic unity it is, nevertheless, a document of rare
‘ fecundity of idea. It is hoped this book will go beyond its limited edition of 500,
experience some revision, and come to take its place among the present day
poems of true intellectuality.--Chicago Tribune.

This book is particularly interesting as being the production of two men equally famous, Blair and
Blake, the one for his solemn ideas and the other for his wierd illustrations for them, as the following
remarks will show: _ __ _
“The 18th century has produced few specimens of blank verse of so familiar and simple a character
as that of ‘The Grave.’ It is -a popular poem not only because it is religious but because its language
and imagery are free, natural and pictures ue.”—Campbell. . _ _ _ _ _
“Blake is a real name I assure you an a most extraordinar man he 18, if he still be living. He 18
the Blake whose wild designs accompany a splendid edition of lair's Grave. He paints in water-colors
marvellous strange pictures, visions of his brain, which he asserts he has seen: They have great merit.
I must look upon him as one of the most extraordinary persons of the sge.”—C harle: Lamb.

“Madeline treats of the notable friendship and
conﬁdential discourses of two book-lovers, Sir Dives
and Master Pauper, and relates with due apprecia-
tion and sympathy the manners in which Master
Pauper rescued Sir Dives from the gods of corn-
13
merce, and how the two friends labored together
for their own impulse of bookishneu and for the
happiness of other: In: fortunately situated“ The
low motive is supplied by the passion of Master
Pauper and Madeline, the Poor Relation, and to
this trio of interesting characters the narrative is
almost wholly conﬁned. That same delightful at-
mosphere of bibliophilism which made “The Bond-
age of Ballinger” a source of exquisite enjoyment to
collectors and appreciative reader: is characteris-
tically maintained in Mr. Field's story.

A VERY NOTABLE LITERARY ITEM OF HAWTHORNE
153. Love Letters of Nathaniel Hawthorne, 1839-
1841 and 1841-1863. Privately printed; The Society
of the Dofobs, Chicago, 1907. 2 vols, 8vo, pp. 248
and 285, gray boards, genuine vellum back-bone,
printed on toned Holland paper, from type, two in-
teresting facsimile letters inserted, photogravure
frontispiece of Hawthorne as a young man, printed
by the De Vinne Press ........................... 150.00
Only sixty-two copies were printed, and the con-
tents copyrighted, by a small Club of genuine book-
lovers in Chicago, the letters being loaned for this
purpose by William K. Bixby, of St. Louis. No copy
was aﬁered for sale by the Club, the entire edition
going to the Club members.
The above is a ﬁrst edition of much interest and
importance. It is absolutely necessary to every
Hawthorne collector. The letters reveal a charming
side of Hawthorne’s personality. As Roswell Field
says in the preface: “That any one can read these
letters without a warmer, closer feeling for the
‘shy, grave Hawthorne’ seems impossible. To one
who has perused them in manuscript, transcription
and proof sheets, there comes almost a conviction
that he wrote them not merely for the woman wait-
ing for the day when pledges should be sanctiﬁed,
but with the half wish that all sympathetic spirits
might see him and know him as he was. For gaily
he speaks of his own bashfulness and reserve; hope-
fully he passes beyond lhe drudgery and disappoint-
I7
ments of his position in life to the future which al-
lures him,“ bravely he ﬁghts anxiety and care; with
quaint humor and lightness of touch he pictures
the scenes around that amuse and interest him.And
when in loving remembrance he calls for the ‘Dove’
or with meek seriousness charges the ‘naughty Sophie
Hawthorne,’ a strong aﬁection is breathed in gen-
tleness, a manly tenderness delights in every line.”

“ . . .I wanted more particularly to talk over the
Jonathan Edwards manuscript we both heard about
and referred to in print. I am writing an article on
a somewhat allied subject and thought it possible
that I might ﬁnd it worth while to allude to the
stories about it and to the little book, whiCh has been
printed as being the manusscript referred to. Can
give me any hints with reference to the matter
which might be useful? . . ”

“.4 MASQUE OF LOVE," by Charles Erskine Scott Wood,
is a blank verse poem of unusual interest. It is in three parts.
The ﬁrst has for its subject instinctive love, such as was known
in the twilight of the gods. The second confesses to the per-.
plexity which arises when these impulses of the free heart are
bound by laws, and the consequent crime and doom that follow.
The third presents a climax in love reﬁned by other elements,
leavened by friendship, chastened by suﬂering, and made stead-
fast by reflection.
The idea is one of those that admits of strong individual
treatment, and the power of it is to be measured by the method
of its presentation. The greatest of poets might not be ashamed
to undertake this theme. And it can be truthfully said that
Mr. Wood has approached his subject with passionate in-
tensity, with ardent temperament, and facile eloquence.
The climax is a temperate one. It shows man submissive
to nature and receiving instruction from her; shows him making
himself amenable to his own laws, and tempering all the cruel
revelations of life with his patience, his fortitude, and his good
will. He rises above the half god of the ﬁrst part and the'
arrogant overman of the second by his power of intellect, which,
in the face of any adversity would still keep him free. His
joys have gone the round of experience, included sorrow, taken
cognizance of death, and reached again the goal of joy.
It is a plasure to commend this poem to lovers of blank-I
verse; for if it suﬁers at the last from lack of dramatic unity
it is, nevertheless, a document of rare fecundity of idea. It is
hoped this book will go beyond its limited edition of 500, exper—
ience some revision, and come to take its place among the pres-
ent day poems of true intellectuality.—Chicago Tribune.

This narrative, said to have been dictated to Mr. Bonner long after the
period of these marvelous adventures, bears the marks of that talent for ex-
aggeration for which the border men are so remarkable. Beckworth at this
time had retired from the hazardous chieftainships he had attained, of sev-

eral hostile tribes in succession, to a but where he was dispensing ﬁre water
to the emigrants, who thronged the trail near his gro gery.
Although he speaks in rather sounding terms of his evolutionary sire, he
neglects to state that his mother was a mulatto slave; and Mr- Bonner is
equally silent, upon the tokens he must have seen. of slight regard to truthful-
ness. Jim Beckworth was known for many years on the frontier as a daring
adventurer, and an unscrupulous savage, not less brutal and blood-thirsty
than his allies;'but no frontiersman ever made the mistake of believing all he
said.

ﬁgures to be distinct and life-like; and as no one was ever better ﬁtted by '
experience and facility of ower to secure upon the canvas all that would
interest us in aboriginal lie, these prints will remain, probably as long as
their fabric lasts, the best delineations of its scenes.

New York, 1%2. $10.
" Nearly as new. A work of the highest merit and greatest importance on
the early history of the great West. The author has embodied in it the
results of years of painstaking research, going into the whole subject with a
thoroughness and ability rarely met with in these days. ,Every known
printed authority has been consulted and digested, and in addition a mass
of ori 'nal manuscripts hitherto inaccessible has been laced at Capt. Chit-
tendens disposal. The result is that many important etails connected with
the discovery and development of the West are now ﬁrst brought to light.
This is a work that has at once taken its place in the very front rank in
the ﬁeld of American history. Such critics as Ripley Hitchcock and Cyrus
Townsend Brady give it the highest praise. Written by one who is in thor.
ough sympathy with his task, the entire subject is treated in the most happy
style, and there is not a dull page in it.

’ A valuable and interesting original work by the author of “The American
Fur Trade of the Far West.” Very few people now have an conception
of the part the steamboat navigation of the Missouri River played in the
upbuilding of the West. The business of the fur trade, the intercourse of
government agents with the Indians, the campaigns of the army throughout
the valley, and the wild rush of gold-seekers to the mountains, all depended,
in greater or less degree, upon the Missouri River as a line of transportation.
No other river in this country has a record to compare with it. From begin-
ning to end it abounds in thrilling incident, and the life which it fostered
was full of picturesque and even tragic details.

‘ The Onondagos were the central tribe of the Six Nations, the uardians
of the great council ﬁre, and the custodians of the important recor s of the
Confederacy. From their chiefs was selected the highest ofﬁcer, styled by
Europeans the King. Residing near them, as the author did for many years,
familiar with their Observances, and often present at the great councils of the
Confederacy when numerous representatives of the tribes assembled from
their colonies around the upper lakes, he could not but be imbued with the
desire to make his history of the county a record of the great tribes which
once inhabited it. Mr. Clark has evidently examined almost every source of
information regarding the Six Nations we possess in the English, French,
and Spanish languages, and accordingly the ﬁrst seventy-eight pages are
occupied with a resume of what he thus gleaned.

All the peculiarities of the aboriginal races of Labrador, which a stranger
would be permitted to observe, Mr. Hind has noted. We are enabled to see
how the territory, swept of its animal tenants to furnish the white man with
skins and furs, has become no longer capable of furnishin its savage inhabi-
tants with food; how the unhappy Indian has been pushe towards the frigid
zone until he has reached a point beyond which human constitutions are
unﬁt for enduring its rigors, and how thus, from the want of the wild food,
his wild habits and tastes demand, the aborigines have dwindled to a handful.

‘ The object of this expedition was of a higher humanitarian order, than
those which the government has usually organized for the Indian’s affairs.
Under its direction there had been settled on lands claimed by the ﬁerce tribes
of the Plains, those unfortunate victims of civilization, the remnants of the
Delawares and other eastern nations. The wild savages of the prairies resented
this forced intrusion, in their simple mistrust not reckoning that their red
brethren were exiles, driven from their homes by a power which would soon
press them from their own hunting grounds. Between the exiles and the
natives arose a ﬁerce warfare, and over the debatable ground was fought many
a bloody battle. It would have been in conformity with the greedy policy of
the white man, to permit the unsophisticated savages to mutually exterminate
each other, and thus leave the land free for the speculator. It was however
to induce peaceable relations between these warring tribes, that the govern-
ment sent out Mr. Elsworth as its commissioner. Mr. Irving accompanied
the expedition, and his work affords us many interesting incidents of savage
life. The work abounds in such fragments of the traditions, history, and
peculiarities of the Indian tribes of the Plains.

" A fine set. The Baron Lahontan went to Canada in 1683, when only
sixteen years old, and remained in that country nearly twenty years. He
was required by his patron to write him a detailed account of the affairs of
the colony in his letters as a recognition of the yearly assistance he received
from him. In his correspondence he did not ﬂatter the riests, and imputed
the evils which the colony suffered from the war with t e Iroquois to their
counsels. Learning that the Governor of Newfoundland was preparing to
make him a prisoner he ﬂed to Portugal and thence to England. He
asserts that the dialogue which has generally been viewed as ﬁction, is a true
and faithful relation of conversation held with a Huron Indian named The
Rat. . . Lahontan was in England while these volumes were being

' This periodical is published quarterly, each number containing not less

nent form the scattered and decaying records of the domestic, civil, litera ,
religious and political life of the pee 1e of the United States and particular y
of ew England; to rescue from o livion the illustrious deeds and virtues
of our ancestors; to perpetuate their honored. names,_and to trace out and
ﬁreserve the genealogy and pedigree of their families. To this end the
egister contains Biographies of distinguished men; Genealo 'es of American
families; Transcriptions of Church Town, County and Court eeords; Histori-
cal Memoranda from interleaved Almanacs, family Bibles, old Account Books.
etc.; Ancient Private Journals and Letters; Centennial Celebrations, Mar-
riages and Deaths, Notes and Queries, etc. _
‘ Almost every week I ﬁnd occasion to search the indexes_for historical or
enealogical material not to be found elsewhere, ‘and “@1911, but for the
egister, would not have been preserved. The promises of its rojeetors have
been more than fulﬁlled. Every succeeding volume enhances t e value of the
series as a work of reference. To students it is no longer merely a con-
venience; it has become a necessity.”—]. Hammond. _ _
“When we wish to trace any given name Mr. Savage’s Dictionary will be
our ﬁrst resource, and if wanting there, one other authority remains to be
appealed to (the New England Historical and Genealogical Register), after
which all but the most enthusiastic will rest assured that the family is of
recent origin..”—S. G. Drake.

‘ In October, 1841, one year after the termination of his ﬁrst explorations,
the author set out upon the one, the incidents of which are here narrated.
So far from exhausting the antiquities of the peninsula in his ﬁrst two vol.
umes, these add to our astonishment by portraying the gigantic ruins of still
more imposing structures, erected by the vanished race of peninsular aborigines.

It is difficult to believe that two individuals were capable of such an
astonishing amount of labor, as is evidenced in these volumes. The wonderful
structures of the race of Indians which once inhabited the peninsula of Central
America, are here described by pen and pencil with reat clearness and
minuteness. The temples, sculptures, idols, utensils, buil ings, and architect-
ure, of that active, intelligent, and almost mythical people, are illustrated by
more than seventy large engravings, from drawmgsby Mr. Catherwood. Mr,
Stephens did not neglect their modern representatives. as his book is ﬁlled

‘ Clean sound co y. _ _ _ _
The editor of this work obtained the material for its construction from the
lips of John Tanner, a captive white who had_ resided_among the Indians for
thirty years. Mr. James was a man of much information u 11 Indian alIairs,
and must have been able to discriminate between the pro able and the un-
certain ortions of Tanner's narrative. The renegade himself (for he had
during is long sojourn among the Indians become even more savage than
they) was a person of retentive me_mory_and fair intelligence. .His relation
of his life among the Northern Indians, is probably the most minute, if not
authentic detail of their habits, modes of living and social customs, ever
printed. The perils and privations in which they constant] exist the tribal
distinctions, and family associations, and quarrels, the hunter s painful struggle
to overmatch the cunning and instinct of the animals upon which he must
feed or starve, and the labors of the squaws, alternated Withdays and weeks
of gnawing famine, awaiting his return, are minutely and vividly related.

" Contains ﬁve folding maps and plans. Tarleton’s book is of great value
as containin material not to be found elsewhere, exec t with reat difﬁculty
and labor. It has been pointed out that the value of arletons narrative is
somewhat diminished by self-gloriﬁcation. On the other hand, it must be
admitted that, weighing all censiderations, Tarleton was the most successful
otfﬂany {if the English Commanders and he should be allowed a little pardon-
a 0 tin e.
Tarleton was never niggardly of his advice nor sparing in his criticism.
After reviewing the situation of England at home and, aware of the fact that
France and S ain had openly embraced the cause of the Colonies, he sug-
gests that the ollowing should have been the line of action. “An immediate
attention to the West Indies, and an early evacuation of New York, might
have produced such important consequences as would in all human probability
have given a different termination to the war; . . . and America woud
have again resorted to the protection of her parent state."

Prefatory Note
REFACES to book catalogues are not so frequent as they
P might be. To be sure, a host of catalogues are issued of
whose contents the less there is said the better. But when,
as in the present instance, so many items are really distinguished
and are in such immaculate condition, quite ready for the most
exacting collector’s shelves, a few words of introduction are surely
not amiss if they serve to call special attention to the more notable
pieces herein awaiting new owners, and the opening of new chap-
ters in their not uneventful lives.
A delight in the reading and possession of good books is one
of the most reﬁning sensations possible to civilized man. The
word “good” is not used here in its restricted bourgeois sense,
but in a more tolerant, more humane meaning. The best books
are those which survive the generation that gave them birth and
live on, decade after decade, century after century, delighting the
thousands, the hundreds, or the tens to whom their appeal and
attraction are irresistible. The “hundred best books” madness
is akin to the “squaring of the circle,” “perpetual motion,” and
“pliilosopher’s stone” forms of human aberration. The linear
limitation of “ﬁve feet,” or any other number of foot units, repre-
sents the nadir of wanton intellectual errancy. The hundred best
books for one man may very well be the hundred worst for his
neighbor or his bosom friend. A man should choose his books
for much the same reasons that he (presumably).chooses his
wife: because he desires those particular books beyond all others,
because he expects from them a life-time of noble companionship
and delight. His books should express some phase of his in-
dividuality, of his preferences, or his serious thoughts, or of his
lighter moods, provided always these be worthy and not ignoble
ones. Again, his books are an entirely intimate and personal
matter: their subject or subjects are no concern of any one but
himself. It is his right (and often his exquisite pleasure) to
disregard the counsels of academic Brahmins and self-constituted
High Priests of Taste, and to choose his books to suit himself,
just as he chooses the friends he invites to dinner (except those
he asks for business or professional reasons). He who collects
the sporting novels of Mr. Surtees is as worthy a member of the
great fraternity of collectors as the more sober minded gatherer
of all known editions of the Anatomy of Melancholy.
The present catalogue is mainly devoted to English Literature,
that noble product of sustained intellectual activity and love of
beauty whose equal is not to be found among either ancient or
4 Prefatory Note
modern nations. The items listed should appeal tO a wide range
of taste and inclination. They should both interest the Older col-
lector and stimulate to activity those who have hitherto only
“resolved” or “thought” of gathering great and beautiful books.
Fortunate is he whose collection is already so complete that no
, title here could enrich it. But he surely is as great a rarity as
some of the books themselves.
Early English literature is represented by such ﬁne pieces as
the black letter Chaucer Of 1561 ; by VVynkyn dc Worde’s edition
of Hylton’s Scala Perfectionis, 1533; and by the late Mr. Harrison
\Veir’s copy of Gerarde’s Herbal, 1597. It would be extremely
difﬁcult to ﬁnd a nobler copy Of Ben Jonson’s l-Vorkcs, 2 vols.,
1616-1640, than the one here Offered. This is the edition to read
if one wishes to get the full ﬂavor Of the great Elizabethan time.
Imagine “Rare Ben’s” wrath were he to see a modern variorum
edition Of his works, wherein his glorious lines are surrounded by
deadly marshes and swamps of learned notes, the boggy creation
Of the unimaginative German philologist and the American candi-
date for the doctorate in philosophy. It is worth while pointing
out that Jonson was the ﬁrst English dramatist to prepare a col-
lected edition of his works in his own lifetime. What a mass of
printed matter would have been saved had Shakespeare been his
own selector and editor.
Of the beautiful copy Of Parkinson’s Paradisi in Sole, 1656,
enough is said in the notes to indicate the necessity Of its inclusion
in any reputable collection of works on Botany, or Gardening.
Among the great writers Of the 18th century, few names rank
higher than those of Fielding, Smollett, Goldsmith, and Sheridan.
The sets of Fielding and Smollett, all ﬁrst editions uniformly
bound by Riviere, should certainly ﬁnd a home in one and the same
collection. The superb ﬁrst editions of the Vicar of Wakeﬁeld,
1766, and The Haunch of Venison, 1776, are treasures that a full
purse should not hesitate to acquire at once. Sheridan’s The
Rivals, the ﬁrst edition, 1775, contains the rare half-title, and its
binding is a work of art.
The literary monarchs of the 19th century are represented by
many ﬁrst editions and numerous items Of the utmost rarity. The
diligent collector of Blake, the Brownin s, Coleridge, Eliot, Keats,
Lamb, Rossetti, Shelley, Swinburne, Tennyson, and Thackeray,
will discover good things under each of these names; and the
beginner will ﬁnd more than a nucleus for the foundation of a
collection embracing one or all of them.
The complete set Of ﬁrst editions of the novels Of Thomas
Hardy is a notable and unusual item on this side of the ocean.
It should whet the appetite Of some discriminating admirer of
the more modern men in English letters. \Vith it should go,
too, the ﬁne series Of George Meredith’s individual books and man-
uscripts. “A Meredithian epigram is as much more brilliant than
]an ordinary bit of prose as a lightning ﬂash is brighter than 21
amp.”
Prefatory Note 5
Although Kipling is just now out of favor in certain high quar-
ters, his best work remains vital despite changing views regarding
the man. No Stevenson collection can be considered complete
without The Story of a Lie, 1882. Only a very few copies have
survived and opportunities to secure one are each year becoming
less. The titles by Oscar Wilde aﬁord an excellent chance to
begin the formation of a collection of this writer’s works, which
are rapidly becoming more scarce and high priced. His dramas
are “monuments of exhaustless ingenuity and resource,” and they
have won a high place in the esteem of serious European critics.
His De Profundis “is unique in English literature and perhaps in
all literature,” says the latest historian of the Victorian era.
Individual works of unique interest by reason of personal asso-
ciations, unusual conditions, or rich binding, etc., are numerous.
Keats’s Eve of St. Agnes, bound by Cobden-Sanderson in full
light blue morocco is, to use Keats’s own much quoted ﬁgure,
“a thing of beauty” and should be “a joy forever” to its possessor.
The Pickwick Papers, 1837, with the Seymour plates in their
original state, is not likely to be overlooked by the Dickensian
who still lacks it. Thackeray’s Essay on the Genius of George
Cruikshank, extended to four volumes by the addition of 477 of
Cruikshank’s illustrations, is a rich collection in itself. But one
of the most extraordinary numbers in the catalogue is the com-
plete set of the famous Sporting Magazine and its various com-
ponent parts from 1792 to 1870. It is scarcely possible to ex-
aggerate the rarity of so perfect a series of what must be the
corner stone for a library of modern sport. In 1909 a set sold
in a London auction room for £500 ; and in July, 1910, at Sothe-
by’s, Mr. Quaritch paid the record price of £920 for Colonel Har-
greave’s set. The present one is a bargain at the price here
offered.
Here the prefacer must bring his “few words” to a close, or
he will be suspected of enthusiasm or of a conspiracy with the
printer. For the printing of catalogues like this is an expensive
matter in these extravagant days, and the genial Mr. Hill may
have reason to repent having allowed one of the tribe of Dibdin
to discourse at such length concerning these precious volumes.

" This is, perhaps, Ainsworth's master-piece, and surely, never had novelist
a more striking subject than the two fearful calamities which fell so quickly
upon each other as the great plague and ﬁre of London. The story connect-
ing the two events is most enthralling, and the historical articulars are derived
from the authentic sources, but are related in a ar more picturesque
style than historians had learned before Macaulay led the way.

pencil. Facsimiles by W. Muir. ll vols. (1 vol. impl. 4to, 1
vol. royal 4to, and 9 in demy 4to) , in the original covers, uncut, as
issued to the Subscribers. London, 1884-8, etc. $300.00
“These splendid works were reproduced under the auspices of H. S. H.
Prince Victor of Hohenlohe-Langenburg, Count Gleichen, m the very limited
number of 50 numbered copies.
The very restricted number has been drawn on stone, and coloured by hand,
by Mr. Muir, and a very small staff of artists acting under his personal super-
vxsion. The lot consists of the following works:
Visions of the Dan hters of Albion, (1793); The Book_0f Thel, (1789);
Songs of Innocence, (1 89); Songs of Exberzence, (1794); Milton, (1804); Mar-
riage of Heaven and Hell, (1790); Jerusalem, the Emanation of the Giant Al-
bion (1804); The First Book of Urizen, (1794, no more ever done). There is
no atural Religion, (N. D.); The Gates of Paradise, (1793); Ammca, a
Prophecy, (1793). _
In size only, these depart from strict facsimile, for the sake of something
like uniformit , and for the purpose of binding together if desire . For in-
stance, the “ ates of Paradise” in the original is a very tiny volume, which
would be lost among the other large ones. To obtain the original issues
would require an outlay exceeding ﬁve ﬁgures. In the Robert Hoe sale, eight
Blake items brought a total of $16,485. The “Milton” and the “Marriage
of Heaven and Hell” fetched $12,500.

‘ The ﬁrst edition of this famous book. Very scarce. This little volume was
published privately at the suggestion of Mary Russell Mitford. All the world
knows these sonnets are among the most exquisite literature has produced.
Originally sent in MS. to Mr. Robert Browning, Miss Barrett naturally re-
belled at the idea of their ever meeting any eye but her lover’s—-but Miss
Mitford was insistent, and so they foun the Ii ht. So far the most diligent
search has only revealed about twelve copies. esides being one of the One
Hundred Books Famous in English Literature, exhibited by the Grolier club,
this must be one of the rarest volumes of any 19th century writer. Writing
to Mr. Gosse, many years after, Mr. Browning says. “I dared not reserve
to myself the ﬁnest sonnets written in any language since Shakespeare.”
The world is richer for his generasity.

' The best edition of Carlyle’s works ever published, and a set of the ﬁrst
issue dated is now most difﬁcult to obtain, es ially in good state. The
volumes were sold separately and reprinted accor ing to demand, consequently
it was only subscribers to the complete series who received the volumes Im-
mediately on publication, thus securing ﬁrst editions throughout. Numerous
undated stereotype reprints have been published, but none are equal 'to the
original issue in respect of printing, which was done direct from type Instead
of from the more expedient and economical stereotype.

" From the days when dear Goldy told the little Masters and Misses_of his
time such delightful Fairy Tales; down to the present moment, never dId pen-
man and publisher combine in such a happy partnership of pleasure-productipn.
“Lewis Carroll" loved children as much as children loved him; and Judging
from the zest with which Sir John Tenniel illustrated these two really camr
books, he must have been a very near disciple. . , _
The story is as follows: The ﬁrst issue of the ﬁrst edition was printed at
Oxford, and consisted of two thousand copies. As the pictures dld_not come
out successfully, the edition was condemned b both author and Illustrator.
and purchasers asked to return their copies. he author gave_ these away to
various0hospitals. Of this ﬁrst issue, only three or four copies are known.

parts of Persia, and the other half treats in an historical, political. commerecial,
archaological and geographical sense of Persian provinces or territorial divi-
sions, of the Army. Navy. Revenue, Resources. Manufactures, Means of Trav-
eling. etc. The whole forms the most authoritative work we have on Persia
as a Nation, and as a factor in the Politics of the East.

* I do not know whether it has ever been commented upon by any one among
the numerous writers upon Dickens and his works;~but I think I can trace
in many of his books, a strong vein of superstition in his mind; notwith-
standing his great common sense, and the superlative gift of humour which he
26 Walter M. Hill
possessed. “T o be Read at Dusk” contains two very “creepy” stories, among
many which could be collected out of his works.

132. DICKENS (Charles). The Posthumous Papers of the
Pickwick Club. 43 etched plates by R. Seymour and Phiz; to
which are added the 2 suppressed plates done by Buss, imme-
diately after the death of Seymour. The Seymour plates are in
their ORIGINAL state, before any re-touching or re-etching had bee-n
done by Phiz. Very uncommonly found in this virgin state, as
only 400 impressions were so taken, a large number of which were
sent out for review; many of which would no doubt, so little was
thought of the earlier parts, be cast into the W. P. 3.; while a
much larger number have since perished by accident, book-binders’
slaughter, and evil usage; so that it is no wonder that the original
issue of the PRE-WELLER parts has become EXCEEDINGLY RARE.

" The sign-board in the original engraved title-page is “Veller,” afterwards
corrected to “Weller;” and the following eculiarities, with many others, which
it is unnecessary to mention, indicate a rue First Edition. . . . It will be
sufficient to set forth one or two of the more noticeable points of diﬁerence
between Seymour’s own plates, and those which Phiz dealt with of Seymour's.
Thus: (plate facing p. 2) Pickwick standing upon his chair, addressing the
club;—Seymour represents the buttons on Pickwick’s waistcoat correctly; but
Phiz places them upon the wrong side of that garment—(plate facing p. 9)
Jingle, with his dog Ponto, carries a gun over his left shoulder, correctly
depicted, at half-cock;—-Phiz deprives the weapon of any appliance for the dis-
charge of the weapon.-—(plate facing p. 17) Jingle in a borrowed suit, naturally
a mis-ﬁt, is jeering at the an ry Dr. Slammer; and the two are standing on a
staircase landing of ten plan s; while Phiz makes the suit ﬁt Jingle as if it
had been made for‘ him, and adds an eleventh board to the landing. These
features will be detected at once on comparison with later issues.
133. DICKENS (Charles). Oliver Twist; or, the Parish
Boy’s Progress. 25 (not 24 as usual) ﬁne plates by G. Cruik-
shank. The Plate “Rose Maylie and Oliver” has the original
plate, generally known as “The Fireside,” which was rejected by
Dickens, and only appears in a few of the earliest copies; also the
substituted plate of Rose and Oliver standing in front of the
memorial tablet to Oliver’s mother, which has been inserted.
EARLY ISSUE OF THE FIRST EDITION. 3 vols., crown 8vo, cloth,

‘ I have no hesitation whatever in saying that there is no ﬁner copy on
earth, even if there be one nearly approaching the state of. this. .
If Dickens could nbw see it, having retained all its pristine beauty for Just
an half-a-century, it would, while gratifying him that such care should have
been taken of it, cause a slight pang of regret that even one Copy should re-
main in existence without showing the least evidence beyond its title-date, that
it was not published—vssrsnosv!

' A most interesting and extensive collection, comprising 922 items, each of
which is annotated. Mr. Sidney Lee, in the Prefatory Essay, says: “I be-
lieve this collection of Shakespeariana to be. within its limits, the most inter.
esting and valuable in existence. A sustained effort has been made on the
one hand, to assemble as many volumes as possible in English or Foreign liter-
ature of the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, which critics have
shown grounds for believing were studied by Shakespeare himself. On the
other hand, there have been brought together numerous seventeenth century
books of both English and Foreign origin, in which the authors have either
made speciﬁc reference to Shakespeare, or have evinced knowledge of his
work by way of imitation or plagiarism.” He also expresses his opinion that
the collection is, on the whole. of greater interest than those of Edward
Capell, Edmund Malone, or Halliwell-Phillips.

so pleasantly, like a man telling a story after supper. At the time they ap-

‘ “Between the ﬁrst appearance of Gerard’s Herbal and the second edition,
Parkinson had published his Paradisi in Sole Paradisus Tcrrestris, the most
popular gardening work of this period.
“The title of the book is a play upon his name: Park-in-Sun’s Earthly
Paradise, and the quaintness freshness and originality of the title is character-
istic of the whole book. Farkinson has the power of inspiring his readers
with a love of ﬂowers and a feeling of their beauty, and still after a lapse of
centuries, no gardener could fail to be refreshed and stimulated in his art by
a perusal of the Earthly Paradise.

But of the haunting, ineﬁ'able, sweet sadness which pervades this picture
of a short, full, yet unfulﬁlled life, it is impossible to speak adequately.

have painted the master-piece.

PRINTER OF THE TITLE-PAGE, and also his name in the imprint on the last page,
and with the dedication, “To Harriet.” In PERFECT conomon, the very few
copies that are in existence having in nearly every instance the name of the
author in these two laces cur our av SHELLEY HIMSELF, and some copies are
also without the de ication. It is said that the poet only printed 250 copies
of this edition, and it is not well understood why he defaced the copies by
cutting out his name, as even those he presented to his most intimate friends——
his future wife, Mary Godwin, for instance—were thus mutilated [though in
this particular case he left the dedication].

358. SHELLEY AND BROWNING: Letters of Percy
Bysshe Shelley, with an Introductory Essay by Robert Browning.
Small 8vo, in the original cloth, uncut. Fine clean copy. Lon-
don, M oxon, 1852.
" Fine copy of the ﬁrst and only edition. The publication of these “letters”
disclosed one of the most ingenious literary forgeries of modern times. Not only
in hand-writing, but in other details, they were so carefully executed that they
deceived eminent experts, and Browning was induced to write a lengthy intro-
ductory essay on the life and enius of Shelley. The. genuineness of the letters
was ﬁrst called in question y Mr. F. T. Palgrave, who saw the book at
Tennyson’s house, and accidentally o ened it at a passage which he recognized
as taken from an article contribute by his father to the Quarterl Review.
Little by little the network of fraud was unravelled. The book was rigidly sup-
ressed and the_remaining copies were destroyed, and, as only a few copies
ad got into circulation, it is now very rare. The forger is attributed to
George Byron, said to be the natural son of Byron and the aid of Athens.

“Dear Dr. Ruedi,
You can read one line in the Dedication, and remember,
Yours sincerely,
R. L. S."
Beneath this is the impressed stamp. Dr. C. Ruedi.
After travels in search of health among the Alpine Heights, Davos Platz,
amid.the pine-woods of Bournemouth, Stevenson pens a grateful dedication
of this volume to those members of the Medical Profession who have brou ht
him “.Comfort and Hel ,” mentioning no fewer than ten of them by name. he
one line which he in icates in his inseri tion runs thus:
To D_r. Karl Ruedi of Davos, the g genius of the English in his frosty
mountains.
Eyen If Dr. Ruedi be_ no longer among living men it seems to me that his
family should have cherished this volume among their precious possessions.
As they have not. done so, their neglect will enrich it more to Its appreciative
owner.

' “ ‘The Story of a Lie’ is one of the most uncommon of Stevenson's pieces.
The book was prepared for publication in 1882, but was withdrawn at the last
moment, and the entire impression destroyed. Very few sets of the sheets
were preserved.” The foregoing is the note a pended by Mr. Wise to his
entry of the book in the catalogue of his own library of bibliophilists’ rarities.
This copy has been sewed, and there are traces on the back of a cover which
has been stripped off. In that state it can scarcely be termed “in sheets;"
and must consequently be one of the copies “prepared for publication," which
escaped the destroyers’ hands.
EXTREMELY RARE. “The Story of a Lie” was presented for issue in 1882,
but, in consequence of a dispute which arose,with the proposed publishers
upon the uestion of Copyright, the project was abandoned, and the book
withdrawn fore publication. The work was never “made up,” and the few
copies that have survived are merely such sets of the sheets as chanced to have
lizeen pgeserved by the publishers and printers.”—Prideaux’s Bibliography of

“ A word of explanation, as to the use above of the words: “First Edition."
It seems that the work was written when Mr. Swinburne was only twenty-four
years of age; that it was published serially, under the title, “A Year’s Letters,"
and the author’s name hidden under the pseudonym of “Mrs. Horace Manners;"
also that an American piracy was issued in or about 1890. The “Athenaeum”
of August 5, 1905, notices the present publication, in an article of ﬁve columns,
main] of high eulogy. This is the First Edition, published by the author,
with his name on the title-page.

Fund, inscribing it with his name, in order to render it a more attractive

” Of great rarity in the original cloth. “This book, like most of Trackeray’s

” This was Thackeray's fourth book, but the ﬁrst to which be attached his
name. The title-page does not bear his name but only his pseudonym, by which
alone he was then known to the public; but his proper name is appended to
the dedication to Charles Lever. It was illustrated. as well as written, by
him, and as he was not yet a “popular author," only a small number were
printed; consequently the First Edition is now one of the rarest of Thack-

Mr. Thompson, of B. F. Stevens & Brown, London, after a careful investi-

1860). $50.00
A VERY RARE Thackeray item, and perhaps one of the last works on which
he exercised his artistic talent. The four etchings represent the celebrated
prize ﬁ ht between Heenan and Sayers, at Farns orough, in 1860, evidently
mtende to satirize the brutality of the contest, and the violent methods used
to control the spectators. In the ﬁrst etching can be seen at the back of
the crowd the ﬁgures of Thackeray himself, Thomas Landseer and “Mr.
Punch.” The portrait of Landseeer doubtless shows that he had something
to do with the drawing. .
It is evident that the struggle of a little man like Tom Sayers (who had
an arm broken early in the ﬁght) against a big man like Heenan. which lasted
fully an hour and a half an the brutality exhibited, shocked Thackeray and
he voiced his impressions and protest in this pamphlet.

College de Navarre at Paris in 1456, and for theft from a church in 1461. It
was, for obvious reasons, privately printed, and a second edition, recently

Enemies. Edited by Sheridan Ford. 12mo, original covers, UN-
CUT. Paris, Delabrosse é'r Cie, 1890. $30.00
* The exceedingly rare sanuesr EDITION, and a very interesting volume, both
as regards the circumstances under which it was printed and the fact that it
differs very largely from Whistler‘s own edition (published several months
after this issue, at hitherto generally regarded as the ﬁrst and, indeed, up to
the time of its recent reprinting, as the only edition of the work).
The present volume is a 121110 of 256 p es, printed on very heavy glazed
paper, and was compiled with Whistler’s ull approval. This sanction was
withdrawn on the eve of publication, the artist writing to Mr. Ford that he
had ﬁnally decided on another of his friends as editor. An amusing and
interesting exchange of letters then took place (all of which are given in the
volume), after which Mr. Ford printed his edition in Belgium for shipment
to New York, Messrs. Stokes being named as the publishers. The bulk of
this edition was seized at Antwerp by Mr. Whistler’s legal representatives.
he book contains Whistler letters dating as far back as 1862, sixteen years
earlier than the date of the ﬁrst letter in Whistler’s edition; and includes,
amo the later letters, some which Whistler’s either revised or else omitted
entire y. Among the revised letters are those relating to Whistler’s celebrated
controvers with Mortimer Menpes, in which di ute Mr. Ford was the cham-
ion of histler’s cause. Among those omitted In Whistler’s edition is, need-
ess to say, the correspondence With Sheridan Ford.
Regarding the rarity of the volume, it may be noted that the London edition
of the Herald in March, 1890, stated that “the _entire edition” had been
seized; while he Tunes remarked thatf‘the untmng efforts of a persistent
adventurer at length results in furnishm Mr. Whistler with the ﬁrst and
only copy of this curious work.” The Pal Mall Gazette refers to the volume
as “a great literary curiosrty.”
Messrs. Stokes, writing In response to an inquiry respecting the volume,
explained that although their name ap ared as the publishers they never
handled the work. “Most of the copies, ’ they write, “were burned up in our
fire in 1890. We do not believe that a copy of this edition could be secured
on where. There were only about twenty-tive in existence."
0th the Paris and the New York editions are prior to Whistler’s own
London one. The two pirated and suppressed editions are evidently printed
from the same type or stereo plates.

Containing Six Early Poems by Oscar Wilde. 3 vols., thick 8vo,
buckram, top edge gilt, and the port-covers bound in. Dublin,
1869-1882. $35.00
' Besides the six poems written by Oscar Wilde, at the ages of nineteen to
twenty-one ears, there is a wealth of clever parodies, and renderings into
Latin and reek (with Hebrew occasionally), based upon poems by Tennyson,
Swinburne and other great poets.
Those by Wilde have a particular interest for the philanthropic enquired;
showing the luxurious bias of his mind, and his dainty affectation in choice of'
sub'ect and style.
'l’hese will be found at the following laces: Trinity term, 1876 (_pp. 268-
269); Michaelmas, 1876 (pp. 298-300); ilary, 1877 (Pp- 320-322, and 331);
1(Vlicl530661;n38, 1877 (p. 56); Hilary, 1879 (pp. 146-147); Michaelmas ,1879
p. .
In the earliest one occur the following lines in a poem of ﬁfteen 4-line verses:
“She is too fair for any man
To see and hold his heart’s delight;
Fairer than queen or courtezan,
Or moonlit water in the night.
Her little lips more made to kiss
Than to cry bitterly for pain,
Are tremulous as brook-water is,
Or roses after evening rain.
As a pomegranate cut in twain
Her open lips and amorous mouth,
Her cheeks are as the fading stain
When the peach reddens at the south.
Her breasts are as white melicote
Blushing for pleasure of the sun;
The throbbing of the linnet’s throat
Is not so fair to look upon."
We can trace in these, as in other passages, the inﬂuence of Rossetti and'
Swinburne; With an added note of effemmacy which Is wholly Wilde’s.

ARUNDEL SOCIETY CHROMO-LITHOGRAPHS
An exceptional collection of these large and beautiful repro—
ductions in gold and colors of the most celebrated paintings by
the early masters of the 15th and 16th centuries. The pictures
for the most part were painted on the walls and ceilings of the
beautiful Cathedrals, Churches and Monasteries in Europe, prin-
cipally in Italy; and from the fact that they are chiefly mural
paintings many of them have now, alas, disappeared, and others
are fast disappearing, so that soon these Chromo-lithographs will
remain the only source from which it is possible to study the
glorious works of those whose names are so prominent in the
Renaissance of Art.
