I MUST PREFACE these pages by a few words of explanation. The decay of my eye-sight has within the last year incapacitated me from reading or writing. Cut off by this affliction from my usual mental employments, I have found relief and occupation to my thoughts in dictating these essays to a short-hand riter. This mode of writing will excuse any inaccuracies or mistakes which I may have committed.
