Preface
We venture once more before the Public, hoping to receive the same indulgence and support which has been hitherto bestowed on our Editorial efforts. Our success in former Magazines1 has been decided: each has been more admired than its predecessor, and the last, the Comet, has been so universally believed to be the ne plus ultra of magazines, that we believe the only thing which can put an end to the delusion will be the issue of the Umbrella. We now in full confidence enter on our present duties.
Editor.
