THE Essays contained in the following pages, upon subjects connected with History, Arts, and general Literature, were selected from a considerable number of highly meritorious productions, and rewarded by the Publisher with suitable Prizes. Original poetry also, abounding in feeling and classic elegance, will be found interspersed ;-and Tales, both fictitious and from real life, are introduced to vary and enliven the more severe compositions. Each species of literature, however, being written with a view of directing popular taste into a purer channel than it hitherto appeared to have taken, this volume, in its present complete form, may be employed, with every expectation of proving instructive and entertaining, as an " English Family Reader."
