INTRODUCTION.

WHERE IS IT? This question when addressed to ourselves, frequently obliged us to confess our ignorance, and we determined to avoid, if possible, the recurrence of this disagreeable acknowledgment.

With the kind assistance of friends, to whom we are largely indebted for researches we could not have made ourselves-we now venture to offer it to the

public, with the hope that it may be

useful in answering accurately and con

cisely the often perplexing questionWHERE IS IT?

And hates that excellence it cannot reach.

Seasons-Spring. THOMPSON.

And like another Helen, fired another Troy.

Alexander's Feast. DRYDEN.

A fellow feeling makes one wondrous kind.
