NOTE.
Some of the chapters of this book in a condensed form were published a few years ago in the Illustrated London News , and my acknowledgments are due to the proprietors of that journal for permission to reprint such of the woodcuts as accompanied the text in that form. I have also to thank them for their courtesy in allowing me to use several other engravings from the Illustrated London News , including some from the early numbers, which must now be reckoned among the curiosities of the Pictorial Press.
