Hardly, we are constrained to admit, for the present volume certainly does not surpass the efforts of previous editors, and we note some rather prominent inaccuracies. One is apt to get rather an unfortunate first impression from the cover. Have you ever, in riding along some solitary country road, been confronted by two gaunt posts bearing a signboard with the ominous legend "Look...
