Excerpt from Thackerayana: Notes Anecdotes A collection of books of this character is doubly inter esting. On the one hand were found the remnants of earlier humourists, the quaint old literary standards which became, in the hands of their owner, materials from which were derived the local colouring of the times concerning which it was his delightful fancy to construct romances, to philosophise, or to record seriously.

Excerpt from Danville, Montour County, Pennsylvania: A Collection of Historical and Biographical Sketches In the list of secular studies history is among the most interesting and the most important. Indeed, there seems to be an almost universal desire to lift the misty veil of the past, and to note the changing scenes that mark the progress of Adams family through all the centuries past and gone. Not alone to satisfy the cravings of a curiosity that is commendable, but because the richest lessons of wisdom are drawn from the experience of the past. Still more interesting and important is the general, and, especially, the biographical history of our own locality. Here, with emotions of strange delight we trace the stern, heroic lives of the pioneers, and with ever-increasing interest watch the growing fields succeed the forest, pleasant homes supplant the rude log cabin, and the development of society as it joins the onward march to a higher civilization. On the other hand, there is a desire no less universal to be remembered by those who come after us. Thus prompted, men have sought out the most enduring material by which to transmit their names and achievements down the ages. They have reared monuments of granite, carved their deeds on the solid marble, and written their names on the everlasting rocks. But all those have yielded to the corroding power of Time, and their moldering remnants become the subjects of uncertain speculation to the antiquarian. Written history is the great conservator of the past and the most enduring memorial for the ages to come. The wondrous tower on the plains of Shinar is leveled with the dust from which it rose, and the glory of Babylon is shrouded in darkness.

Excerpt from The Parochial History of Ackworth, Yorks: With Archaeological, Antiquarian, and Biographical Notes Records Rev. Charles A. Wells, Organising Secretary of the Church Defence Institution. At the recent Church Congress at' Wakefield, the question of the best means of instructing the classes, as well as the masses, in the origin, history, revenues, and work Of the Church was proposed, but does not seem to have received any very definite reply. You will perhaps, therefore, allow me to make one or two practical suggestions, as to the best way of attaining the Object in hand: 1. A his tory of the Parish Church, its architecture, registers, and en dowments, written by one of the clergy, or some other well qualified person; should be' circulated in pamphlet form throughout every parish. This is the first step towards arousing interest in Church history and Church work. 2. A list of rectors or Vicars, from the foundation of the Church and formation of the parish, should be placed within or without every Church; and, where possible, the names of patrons, curates, and churchwardens should be added. If the parochial chest will not furnish requisite information, a Visit to the diocesan registry generally will. 3. Local biographies are also most interesting, of which each parish might easily furnish one or more. 4. Interest should also be secured in the local press, mis-statements should be at once corrected, and sound informa tion given; short articles and notes on Church questions, with local sketches, should be offered to the different editors. 5. Historical and instructive leaflets should be widely circulated, and lectures on Church history, illustrated by the magic lantern, should be arranged for in every parish during the winter months. Both illustrated lectures and leaflets can be obtained on application to the offices of the Church Defence Institution.' It is, therefore, most desirable that the clergy should be encouraged to do what they can towards writing a history of their own parishes. The Rev. J. L. Saywell, who has written the History of Northallerton, and who was formerly curate of Ackworth, is well qualified to write the Parochial History Of Ackworth, and it is hoped that the.

Excerpt from Sketches of Hull Authors In presenting this little work, the editors recognise the fact that, although it may be said Hull Authors have already been well chronicled, no collection of local biography has hitherto been made. As the first attempt, therefore, in this direction, the editors hope that the present volume on the lives and works of those authors who have been natives of, or intimately connected with Hull, may prove a welcome and useful addition to local literature as a work of reference, besides being of equal interest to the general reader. The Sketches comprise most of those who may be ranked as Hull Authors, and are based on a series of articles which appeared originally in the Eastern Morning News for 1876, and they are now published with considerable additional matter and corrections from the author's notes. The Sketches also include some information which has not previously appeared. It was the intention of the author to have published the volume himself had he lived, and the editors have endeavoured to follow his wishes as nearly as possible.

Excerpt from Reliquiae Hearnianae, Vol. 1: The Remains of Thomas Hearne, M.A. Of Edmund Hall; Being Extracts From His Ms. Diaries, Collected With a Few Notes It may be questioned whether in these days of fast travelling' and cheap literature, two hundred pur chasers of such a work as the present will now be found; but it is hoped that the Collectors of Hearne's Works, (to which this may be deemed a fitting Sup plement, ) the lovers of biographical minutiae, of per sonal anecdote, of historical gossip, and, above all, of the local antiquities, habits and manners of the University, will here find somewhat of information and amusement, to make up for the smallness of the impression, and the consequent high price of the book. Certain it is, that under no circumstances can the Editor himself make a fortune by his speculation, and there is no prospect of his living to witness what Hearne records of one of his own publications, (namely, that having sold Leland's Itinerary for 2l 5s., it had risen even in his time to although he devoutly wishes a similar result to the purchasers of the Oxford antiquary's Remains.
