Excerpt from The Spectator; Selected Essays: With an Introd, and Notes

It has been the aim of the Editor of this Volume to select from the papers of the Spectator all such as may be considered the more representative of its Essays. To this plan of selection the Spectator peculiarly lends itself. Each of its articles is complete and self-contained, yet throughout the whole of the series there is, though a diversity of matter, a continuity of interest. The Editor has therefore divided his subject into two special groups; the sketches which relate to the character of individuals, and those essays which touch upon the current topics of the hour. In the first category will be found the papers dealing with the position and prejudices of the members of the famous Club; whilst in the second part a selection is made from those various miscellaneous essays which were read with such delight by the public to whom they were more particularly addressed. Where there has been so much to choose from, and the difficulty of rejection is encountered at every step, the Editor has had to be guided by very plain and well defined rules. He has endeavoured to reproduce every paper which made the "Spectator" what it then was - the centre and force of contemporary opinion.
