Reseña del editor
The First Edition of this work had a rapid sale, and within a few weeks after it was published the entire issue passed from the publishers shelves into the hands of the public. AS econd Edition, although urgently called for, was not immediately attempted. The First had been found incomplete and faulty in many respects, and the author determined to thoroughly revise and recast before again going to press. The present edition, therefore, will be found much more complete than the First; indeed, I may say that it has been entirely rewritten, and that, whereas the First contained but 3,000 words, this gives nearly 5,000, with a mass of fresh illustrations, and extended articles on the more important slang terms humbug, for instance. Tlie notices of a Lingua Franca element in the language of London vagabonds is peculiar to this edition. My best thanks are due to several correspondents for valuable hints and suggestions as to the probable etymologies of various colloquial expressions.
