Excerpt from Historical Sketches of Statesmen Who Flourished in the Time of George III, Vol. 1 of 2: Second Series The misstatements which were circulated respect ing the First Series of these Sketches make it necessary to mention that nothing can be more nu true than representing the work as a republication. By far the greater part of the articles which had ever appeared before were materially altered or en larged, some of them almost written over again; while a great many were entirely new in every part as those of Lords Mansfield, Thurlow, Loughbo rough, and North, Chief Justice Gibbs, Sir W. Grant, Franklin, Gustavus III., Joseph ii., ca therine II., Queen Elizabeth - The same observa tion is applicable in at least the same extent to the Second Series. Much of George IV., the Empe ror Napoleon, Lord Eldon, Sir W. Scott, is new; and Mirabeau's public character, with the whole of Sir P. Francis, Mr. Horne Tooke, Lord King, Mr. Ricardo, Charles Carrol, N ecker, Carnot, La fayette, and Madame de Stael, are new.
