THE very flattering reception which the Illustrations of and  have experienced from the Public, encourages a hope that the same liberal patronage will be extended to the present undertaking; and though we are aware that it is a maxim generally received, that living authors are of comparatively small consideration, we are happy to know that the world have, in the instance of "The Farmer's Boy," conferred on its author that generous countenance and support which perhaps equal merit has in former times sighed for in vain.

To, Esq., of Troston Hall, we are much indebted for his useful communications. Mrs., of Levermere Magna; the Rev. , of Fakenham; and Mr. ; have equal claims upon our gratitude.
