WILLIAM ANDREWS, who gives
an exhaustive account of ancient punishments, copiously illustrated,
and so graphically described, that he makes us congratulate ourselves
in not having flourished in the olden times, or we might have become
practical illustrations of the discipline of our forefathers. How are
you getting along with GEORGE MEREDITH's _One of Our Conquerors_?
Yours,
HEAD CLERK IN THE BOOKING-OFFICE.
_Reply from Baron de B.-W._--Mislaid "The GEO. M.'s" first volume of
_One of Our Conquerors_ just when I had reached the middle of it, and
the story was beginning. Most unfortunate. Must advertise for it.
