Odds and Ends : From an Old Drawer (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Odds and Ends: From an Old Drawer

The Publishers have done the Author the honour to collect the "Odds and Ends from an Old Drawer," for which he is very much obliged to them, as he never dreamt that any literary dishes of his preparation would ever be thought worthy of being warmed up afresh.

At the same time he must not forget to thank the Editors of the "Quarterly Review," "Frasers," "Hood's," the "New Monthly," and "Ainsworth's" Magazines, for kindly permitting him to re-publish the papers, which have appeared in their respective journals.
