Excerpt from Lusitanian Sketches of the Pen and Pencil, Vol. 1 of 2 The second volume may be found more interesting than the first, as it contains a description of a wider district, and of a greater variety of scenery. In' it I have given an account of the wine-country, the production of port wine, the method of preserving and treating it, and advice to wine-merchants and private gentlemen as to the best way of selecting it. I have touched also on the Oporto Wine Company, and on the subject of the lately projected rail-roads. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Lusitanian Sketches of the Pen and Pencil, Vol. 1 of 2 The following Sketches were written at different periods during a residence of nearly two years in the north of Portugal. They consist partly of tours made through the northern provinces from the Minho to the Mondego. The work is intended therefore to serve as a guide-book to travellers visiting the country, which object, though increasing the value to that portion of my readers, may give a degree of heaviness to some of the early pages, which I trust will not be found to be their general characteristic. My chief aim has been by them to illustrate the present political, social, and religious state of the Portuguese; and I hope I may have conveyed to my English readers a better knowledge of the country than the greater number now possess. I can assure my Portuguese friends, that if I have at times spoken of their faults or failings, I have done so without the least approach to ill-feeling; and I trust that nothing I have said will interrupt the harmony in which I have for many years lived among them. The second volume may be found more interesting than the first, as it contains a description of a wider district, and of a greater variety of scenery. In it I have given an account of the wine-country, the production of port wine, the method of preserving and treating it, and advice to wine-merchants and private gentlemen as to the best way of selecting it.

Belief in a species of Metempsychosis. Wizards. License of St. John's Eve. Superstitious Observances. I Must apologise to that very ingenious authoress, Miss Pardoe, for putting at the head of this Sketch the title she selected for her amusing and clever work on Portugal, the first she published of the many with which she has delighted the world. She would scarcely know Portugal again, so many things have changed; all, or nearly all, yet changing. I believe if we were to wander throughput the country we should find few Sebastianites remaining. Theirs is a curious creed--an odd tradition to be believed is it, that the young and gallant king Don Sebastian had escaped from the fatal field of Alcacer Quiver, where fell the bravest and last of Portugal's chivalry, and that, confined by some fell magic in an enchanted island among the unbelieving Moors, he will one day break his bonds, and return to restore his beloved country to the state of prosperity she once enjoyed. Looking deeply into the matter this creed is not a senseless one--it is one not to be despised and ridiculed, as%might be supposed on first hearing of it. BELIEF OF THE SEBASTIANITE9. 321 In truth, this belief arose from a reality--from a-necessity. The people...
