HILL 831 and 833 Marshall Field Building 31 Washington Street, Chicago 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.

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.

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. \NALLACF.

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.” 42 WALTER M. HILL 234 235 236 237 LAMB (Charles).

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.

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.

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.

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. SW'I'N'BURNE (A. C.). Grace Darling.

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.

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. \ WAL TER III.

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. 8311MARSHALL F1ELD_BLDG., CHICA 00 85 472 473 474 475 476 477 478 VA‘N‘BRUGH (Sir J.).

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.

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.

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 nat- urally rebelled at the idea of their ever meeting any eye but her lover’s—- 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. 78 BROWNING POEMS 0F ELIZABETH BARRETT BARRETT. Afterwards Mrs. Browning. First Edition. 2 vols., 12mo, ori- ginal cloth, uncut.

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. _rwfiut 833 MARSHALL FIELD BLDG., CHICAGO 33 183 DOVES PRESS Cobden-Sanderson (T.

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 that the description of the boat race in Euphranor was the most beautiful example of English prose that he knew. 200 FORD (John) DRAMATIC WORKS, with Notes, Critical and Explanatory, by W.

I 777. $35.00. 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.

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.

This book contains 119 beautifully colored plates, 12x " 15 in., representing over 800 birds, drawn and colored from life by Dr. Theodore Jasper. The shades of color, the fall of the plumage, the characteristic attitude. and the botanical surround- ings are wonderfully exact. The text, which Dr. Elliott Coues pronounced “perfectly reliable” covers 182 pages. and is based ~ on the field observations of the most eminent ornithologists. The " whole is prefaced by a systematic table and index to page, plate and figure, arranged according to the classification which was I prepared by Frank M. Chapman, and adopted by the American Ornithologists Union.

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. $200ON)E OF A LARGE PAPER SET, strictly limited to Fifty copies (published at .00 . 105.

Entitledz—“How to be Pretty.” This is an, amusing paper, with that mingling 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. 241.

It s eaks of the “Authors' Society;” of the frequency with which authors are pestere with appeals for monetary aid; of the question of signed or unsigned Reviews; of a suggested Court of Appeal for the adjustment of the differences between reviewed and reviewer; and is, altogether, a happily humorous paper on literary growling. 242.

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 might as well judge Roman ladies of the past by those who celebrated the Bacchic mysteries, as judge French women on the testimony of a few Parisian romances, written by the Boulevardier for the Boulevardier." 243.

Thick 8vo, cloth, neat, top edge gilt. London, Macmillan, 1896. $5.00. 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. 258.

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. 264.

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. 271.

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. 331.

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. 334. SEYMOUR. Hervey (F. K.)

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. _ 340.

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.

HILL 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. 387.

HILL CHICAGO (Ml/H) 17.07 .HSS‘ Vio. l4. 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. _ AUTOGRAPH LETTERS AND MSS. EXPLANATIONS A. L.

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. 30 BYRON (LORD,—Poet).

Byron.” Note :—The date approximately given above is derived from the water-mark, I819; 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. 31 CAL-DECOTT (RANDOLPH, Artist). A. L. S.

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.” 12 WALTER M.

Very long and important letter. $75.00 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. . . .

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? 831-837 MARSHALL FIELD BUILDING, CHICAGO. 13 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.

Symons, Hereford, with the envelope. $100.00 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,” c., c. 38 CARLYLE (THOMAS).

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.

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 t’other to get to the end of my Letter, and God knows if I shall be able to do it tO-night.

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. 63 DICKENSIANA.

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.

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. ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT 0F LADY WINDERMERE’S FAN. 171 WILDE (OSCAR).

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!” Catalogue of Choice and Rare Books 2. A’BECKETT (G. A.). The Comic History of England, 2 vols., Punch Office, 1847-48; The Comic History of Rome, Bradburys, n. d. [1850].

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.

UNIQUE COPY, having inserted the original Manuscript 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. 51. BROWNING (ROBERT). Men and Women. The RARE FIRST EDITION. 2 vols., original cloth, uncut.. .Unusually fine copy.

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. 61. BROWNING (ROBERT). Asolando: Fancies and Facts. FIRST EDITION. 12mo, original cloth, uncut.

A Selection from the Correspondence and Diaries of the late Thomas Creevey, M.

THE RARE FIRST EDITION. 2 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. 108.

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. 8 31-8 35 Marshall Field Bldg., Chicago 37 I43.

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 AUTHOR’S CORRECTED REVISE PROOF I44. DARWIN (CHARLES).

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.

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- 831-835 Marshall Field Bldg., Chicago 53 tains a Portrait.—A Playbill of the Amateur Performance at the “Haymarket” of “Every Man In His Humour.”—The Series of 6 full-length Portraits of Dickens, Forster, Jerrold, Lemon, Leech, and H.

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. 214. DICKENSIANA: Dickens (C.) Personal Relics of our Author. Of the very greatest interest. (a) Drab Wide- Awake Hat (Maker, Hithouse, II New Bond Street, London).

E. and Hill Side, Strood, Kent. “My Dean Mr. Hughes: _ “As promised I have sent the hat and collar formerly belongmg to the late Charles Dickens.

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. 219.

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.

[1851]. $250.00 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. 482.

The 2 vols., IN REMARKABLY FINE ORIGINAL CONDI- 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.

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. 522.

Taylor at the Ship in Paternoster Row, T. Os- born in Gray’s-Inn, near the Walks, and J. Graves in St. James’s Street, I7II. FIRST EDITION.

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.” AUTOGRAPH INSCRIBED 548.

London, Bentley, 1864. $75.00 " “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. AUTOGRAPH INSCRIBED 550. READE (CHARLES). Hard Cash. A Matter-of- Fact Romance.

Hill 554. ROSSETTI (DANTE GABRIEL). The Germ. Thoughts towards Nature in Poetry, Literature, and Art. 4 etch- ings by Holman Hunt, Ford Madox Brown, James Collinson and W. H. Deverell. Complete set of the four numbers—all pub- 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.

Illustrated by Millais, Rossetti, Hunt and others. 8vo, fine copy, full polish- ed calf, gilt edges by Riviere. London, Moxon, 1857. $25.00 " 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. ' PRIVATELY PRINTED 556. ROSSETTI (DANTE GABRIEL). Sister Helen: a Ballad, by Dante G.

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, Moxon, 1852. $40.00 *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. 612. SHELLEY: Middleton (Chas. S.).

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. 709. SYMONDS (JOHN ADDINGTON). The Escorial.

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. 752.

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.

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. 831-835 Marshall Field Bldg., Chicago 143 AUTOGRAPH INSCRIBED. 753a.

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.

CHlCAGO I909 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. AUTOGRAPH LETTERS AND MSS. EXPLAN A TIONS A. L. S.—-A utograph Letter Signed. A.

Mr. Kent was a long-time friend of Dickens also. 10 BRYANT (WILLIAM CULLEN). Autograph Letter Signed. one page, 8vo, dated, New York, April 11th, 1866. $7.50 11 BURROUGHS (JOHN). One page MSS.

Original Autograph Manuscript. 2 sides of a small 4to sheet, 37 lines. The leaf is one 8 WALTER M. HILL probably extracted by himself, or some one else, from his Commonplace Book. $250.00 On the first page of the MS. are 8 lines headed “Ist Verse” com- 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.

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. 15 CABINET OFFICERS. Official Letters Signed: Bibb, Geo.

Aug. 27, 1863, to Attorney Gen. referring him to Gen. Green Clay Smith concerning a pardon to one William Drake. $25.00 Envelope also bears Lincoln inscription. 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.” 53 LINCOLNIANA. Envelope addressed by H. Sherman to President Lincoln bearing an inscription by Lincoln on the end (signed and dated). $25.00 The envelope contains an A. L. S. of B. B. French, to C. E.

On the back of one of these letters is an inscription by Lincoln (signed and dated). 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. 58 LOUIS XIII (King of France). D. S. 4to. 20 Novembre, 1664. $5.00 59 LOUIS XIV (King of France). D. S. (n. d.) D. S.

He is said to have ob- 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: Ce git 1e fameux Chamillard De son Roi le protonotaire; Qui fut un Heros au Billiard Un Zero dans le Ministers.

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 Earl of Malton on payment of five shillings, being the first payment on a Copy of THE EVANGELICAL HISTORY AND HARMONY which he promises to deliver in sheets “with all convenient speed.” Receipt signed by John Pine, August 16, 1734: ‘ ‘Rec’d of Mr Nourse nine Guineas on the act of Mr Will!!!

John Pine was King’s Engraver of the signets, seals and stamps; 831-837 MARSHALL FIELD BUILDING, CHICAGO. 19 author of “Tapestry Hangings of the House of Lords,” and a trans- lator of Virgil and Horace.

(b) Jan. 23, ’78: An order on the Treasury of the Theatre Royal Drury Lane to pay the sum of nine pounds to “Mr. Sheplgerd.” 10.00 No better proof of the genuineness of this item could be, than 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. 73 SLAVE DEED.

Highly important and interesting Autograph and Signed Letter to Mr. Watts- Dunton, the Critic. “Skerrymore Bournemouth Dear Mr Watts, The sight of the last Athemeum reminds me of you, and of my debt, 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 Robert Louis Stevenson. 76 SOUTHEY (ROBERT). A. L. S. Sunday Noon. 1 page, 16mo. $5.00 About dinner engagements for the week.

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. W. M. Thackeray.” 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. 82 THACKERAYANA. “Mansfield ’s Commercial Diary” for 1845, which belonged to Thackeray. Has in his auto- 22 WALTER M. HILL graph his name on fiy leaf, and on reverse side of that 5 lines of addresses, and under dates: April 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 28; May 1, 4, 5, 6, 22, 23, 28; June 6, 22, 23, 24, 25, 28, 29; Nov. 20; Dec. 1, 3, 4, 8, 9, 10, 18, 22, 26, notes in his hand of personal engage- ment to call, dine, take tea (“T”), etc., with Mrs. Brook- field, Mrs. Tennent, Mrs. Prinsep, Mrs. Sartoris, Procter Procter, Reeves, Talfourd, etc., and his entries (Dec. 8 & 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. 84 TOOMBS (ROBERT). A. L. S. (with envelope), Feby 17th, 1849, to Geo.

Unpublished Original Auto- graph Manuscript. The Noble J ilt—A Comedy in Five 831-837 MARSHALL FIELD BUILDING, CHICAGO. 23 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. 87 USHER (J. P.). A. L. S.

AN UNUSUALIX FINE 5121‘ of these most interesting works which were the first, and are still the best, and most popular books devoted to sacred art. All the 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 in such a clever and attractive manner that the reader absorbs the informa- tion with far more case and pleasure than from the works of any other writer on the subject. A complete set of these works, so clean, handsomely bound, and well preserved, is not often met with. ART: Wornum (R. N.). Analysis of Ornament. The Char- acteristics of Styles.

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 literature. speaks of Bayle’s Dictionary as a “Cornucopia of Bright and Boom- ing Flowers,” and this for many years has answered Catalogers as a suf- ficient note on Bayle. 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 change Of thought and releases his mind after a hard day’s legal fight, from the wearisome contemplation of the “Nice sharp Quillets of the law.” The last vol. contains a most exhaustive index, thus making Bayle accessible at a moment’s thought.

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.

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.

Reduced from $6.00 to $2.00 “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.

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.” 154..

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. 39 A CATALOGUE RELATING TO THE NORTHWEST AND CANADA ___=l APRIL, 191 1 CATALOGUE 35 WALTER M.

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- 8 WALTER M. HILL 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. 52.

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. 113. CHITTENDEN (HIRAM MARTIN).

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. 114. CHURCH (BENJ.).

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. 121.

IRVING (JOHN T., JR.). Indian Sketches taken during an ex- pedition to the Pawnee and Other Tribes of American Indians. 2 vols., cr. 8vo, cloth, paper labels, uncut. London, 1835. $4.50 ‘ 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. 296. IVES (BRAYTON).

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. . .

London, 1873. $12.00 " It is difficult to speak of this splendid work in such terms as its excellence deserves, without seeming to be extravagant in laudation. The author has brought the art of photography to aid for the first time, in illustrating a work principally treating of the aborigines of America. Much more than half of the plates, so beautifully executed as we find them in these volumes, are illustrative of phases in the common life of the Indians of. South America. of scenes in their warfare or barbarous rites; or_of physiognomical pecul- iarities of the difl‘erent tribes; exhibited by portraits of representative indi- viduals. Nothing efiected by engraving has been JJUbllShed, since the days of the brothers DeBry, so elaborate, so rich, an so perfect in drawing, scenery, customs, and anatomical correctness. 371.

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. 543.

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." 545.

CATALOGUE OF RARE AN D INTERESTING BOOKS OCTOBER 1911 NUMBER 37 WALTER M. HILL 831-S MARSHALL FIELD BUILDING 22 E. WASHINGTON STREET CHICAGO 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. =i< =l= =i= * Catalogue of Choice and Rare Books 1.

Hugh Cunningham, 1841. $35.00 " 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. 5.

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.

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. Thick 8vo, full dark green levant extra, gilt top. London, 1837 . $50.00 " 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.

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! 136.
