PREFACE.

THE Miscellanies in prose and verse here put together are for the most part unconnected in subject or in period; but all of them appear to me worthy of per

manent record.

As their Editor, my wish has been to reduce my own share in them to the narrowest possible limits, and to insert only such letters or parts of letters from myself as might seem necessary for the elucidation of

the rest.

January, 1863.
