rrt LDSCXK 92X815 rr ya iEhiturial, -. N the year 1693, one Martin us Scriblerus, sometime an anti- quarian of broad renown. digging in the battle-stained plains of Platea, unearthed an ancient shield. This shieldt circular in shape, was incrusted with hardened earth and the rust of centuries. and held wrapped in its tongueless eloquence undiscovered treasures of knowledge . which might add to the world's enlargening appreciation of one of the finest gala days of its history. Much rejoicing and happy this Martinus heth himself with his priceless discovery to his home in a colder, less romantic clime. where an over-sedulous kitchen-maid fell upon the shield, ancient relic, and by dint of much scouring converted it into a common seventeenth century pot-lid. Oh, dear reader. play not the part of this foolish scouring-maid; but hethink you of the overflowing disappointment of poor Scriblerus. and strive not to destroy for yourself the brightness of a gilded ioHering. Here are faults, but we have sprinkled over them a few merits; here is a common thing - not a pot-lid, please, kind readert-hut a common thing, and we have endeavored to deck it out so you will not know it. We pray you, dear reader. as Abraham prayed of old : if there be ten righteous virtues in our book's favor, spare harsh criticism of it for their sake. During the making of this book we spent many dark hours. Bearing in our hands the mystic herb of gold, we visited the nether places, passed by the raging Furies. saw the three Fates in their mortal occupation. and met the three weird sisters working their hurlyburly of the deaths of kings. Going far- ther we found three sisters of whom the old myths have forgotten to tell us; they had each a powerful eye for shortcomings, and carried each a hammer to sorely knock what faults soever they saw in men. These we won to our un- dertaking; they sold themselves to us. or we ourselves to them : and if any of you, dear readers, be hurt by the unpleasing songs they utter, do you seek un- til you find the herb of gold, and then let your spleen boil over on the Sisters Three. Come not to us. for we shall not hearken unto ynu. Furthermore. the human race is a hard race, not always to the swift, not yet to the slow. This observation has been set to the tune of: uThe World Do Move, of which proof satisfactory may be found a hundredwheres, we hope. in this issue of THE HAMILTONIAN. ie X ha:
