Side Note: Preface: In offering to the public, a second edition of this work, the Author cannot but testify his gratitude for the liberal patronage bestowed upon the first edition—notwithstanding the many disadvantages under which it appeared. The present edition is greatly improved; as well in the printing, as in the arrangement of the work, and the style in which it is written, The first edition, was
hurried through the press, in consequence of which, many inaccuracies occur.
