THE READER, _Jan._ 9, 1864.--"The author deserves honour for the persevering and indomitable energy with which he has faithfully chronicled all those material dilapidations and filth which are the inevitable concomitants of moral decadence, and we hope his book will fall into the thankful hands of every thinking man and escape the too frequent fate of books chronicling disagreeable truths which come unpleasantly, 'between the wind and our nobility.'"
