TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE Italic text is denoted by _underscores_. A missing name or word is denoted by [ ], as in the original. A superscript is denoted by ^x or ^{xx}; for example, y^e and w^{th}. The format of some dates in the original text showed a year digit over another digit, similar to 167½ for example. These have been changed to the form 1671/2. The TABLE OF CONTENTS section has been created by the Transcriber. Obvious punctuation errors have been corrected after careful comparison with other occurrences within the text and consultation of external sources. The use of quotation marks in letters and other quotations is not consistent in the book; some adjustments have been made to have consistency within a particular letter or quotation. More detail can be found at the end of the book.

LONDON: JOHN RUSSELL SMITH, 36, SOHO SQUARE. 1872. _The object of this work, which at present it is believed is sufficiently indicated by the title, will be more fully explained in the preface, which cannot as yet conveniently be printed. It is not possible to estimate the exact extent of the work, but it will be included in one moderately sized volume, published in parts of similar size and price to that now issued._ _W. H.
