Roger LEst,dnge, Knt. Revised edition by
Lucius y. Bierce, Am Clereland, o., 1856, .
We are indebted to Mr.. L. +. Barnard one of
the publishers of this truly valuable book for a
copy. 1t contains much important truth, senten-

reputation of "the most lively describer of public
vices and manners, and the smartest reprehender
IF Them" and as, unfort unately the vices Of
hat day are net unknown and Impractical by the
present generation. This sharp reprehensions yet
retain their force and value. The Book can be
lad of the publishers at Akron and of s.. Ward
Smith Cleveland.
