The ‘ Episodes of Insect Life,’ published in three series some years since, and 
so favourably received, will pleasantly recall to the mind of every one acquainted 
with that Work the power of graphic description, the playful fancy, the fertile 
imagination, and the humorous and artistic pencil of its gifted Author. The 
talent and genius therein displayed won, unsolicited, from the late Prince Con- 
sort, a graceful acknowledgment in the presentation to the Author of a copy of a 
hook, ‘ The Natural History of Deeside,’ privately printed by command of Her 
Majesty the Q,ueen. The above Work comprises a series of Thirty-flve highly 
imaginative and humorous Sketches, suggested by burning Coals and Wood, ac- 
companied by Essays, descriptive and discursive, on : — The Imagery of Accident
