Reseña del editor
Preface to Vol. 1. I am indobtwl to M. UuRUY for many valuable corrections and nots supplied specially for this edition; also to the kindness of Mrs. Kkoax Paul for permitting the use of three of herS icilian sketches for the illustrations (pp. 498 9, and 503) in the first volume. They are now all the more A aluahle as her sketch-book has since been destroyed by fire. M. DiK tY wishes me to add that the inscription of A heuobarbus on p. 488 of this volume is spurious, the pretended discovery being a fraud exjwsed since the page was printed. J. P. MAHAFFY. Trin. Coll., Dublin, Mauch,
