" With pious care and great skill in selection, Mr. Francis Darwin has fur- 

 nished a fitting portrait of his father. Rising from them and setting at once to 

 express one's feelings, it is difficult to find the means which will adequately 

 represent to others the kind of emotions which the threefold picture ha? aroused. 

 Mr. Darwin himself makes use of an expression of admiration which will beet, 

 perhaps, serve our present purpose; he wrote from Rio de Janeiro to Professor 

 Henslow: "I formerly admired Humboldt, I now almost adore him."— The 

 Athenaeum.

"The preparation of these sketches is due to the circumstance that it is my 

 fortune to have had the acquaintance of the persons to whom the sketches relate. 

 These pa^es may show the marks of friendship rather than the skill of the 

 biographer or the research of the historiin. I have written in obedience to the 

 rule or maxim that we vaiua a man bv the measure of his strength, at the place 

 where he is strongest."— From tae Introduction.

"It is likely that when Mr. Gladstone and Lord Salisbury have ceased to 

 interest any but the learned, when the chief who commanded at the battle of the 

 Alma and the chief who raised the siege of Lucknow are hoverins dimly on the 

 verge of forgetfulness, Graham of Claverhouse will ypf be fresh and living: for the 

 school-boy and the general reader in Texas and Tasmania. There is some 

 advantage, then, in having in a succinct form all the facts t h ;• t can be discovered 

 concerning a remarkable man whose life has been so powerfully and so variously 

 depicted. "— Full Mall Gazette.
