As the Common Crow is made up of a small lump of carrion and two or three handfuls of feathers, so was this Volume originally composed of Political History, buoyed up by a few light sketches, solely written to make a dull subject fly. As these sketches-I believe faithfully-delineate the interior of one of the noblest possessions of the British Crown, they are offered to the public in their present form, divested of those observations of a personal nature to which it would now be useless to refer. |
