In the preparation of this volume the publishers have met with nothing but courtesy and assistance from the public. The subscription list was smaller than the publishers hoped and expected to receive; andlalthough the margin of profit was thus cut down to the lowest limit, no curtailment or omission of matter was made from the origi nal extensive design of the work. No subject promised is omitted, and many not promised are given. The number of pages given ex ceeds the number promised by over 400 a volume alone. The extreme difficulty of securing the correct spelling of German proper names, must be the excuse of the publishers for the few mistakes of that character to be found in this volume. The publishers disclaim responsibility for the Substance of the matter contained in the Bio graphical Appendix, as the material was wholly furnished by the sub jects of the sketches.
