gained a certain currency, and no lefs than feven reprints have 

 been ifTued by different publifhers, at the feveral dates given 

 in the margin. As they were all identical with the firft, the 

 duty of revifion and improvement never feeming to have pre- 

 fented itfelf to the profeflbrial mind, we fhall not deem it 

 necefTary to refer to them again. 



In 1835, Major ifTued his third edition, but morn of its 

 ancient glories, the plates of all kinds being much worn and 

 deteriorated. A portrait of Dr. Wharton, the " good man 

 that dares do anything rather than tell an untruth," was its 

 only new feature. 



A reprint of Major, by Lewis, appeared in 1839 ( cr - 8vo.), 

 and another, by Wafhbourne, in 1842. 



In thefe the * Introductory EfTay' was replaced by the old 

 biographies of Walton and Cotton, by Hawkins.
