do not ail'ect the character or interest of ihe

sketch less perfect, without mati rlally injiinng
it—and the.se errors are generally corrected by
the translator in notes. It has lieen said that
the author w as very iViendly and liljcral tov. ards

disguise his political scntunents; yet he does
not hesitate to sa\, that the repubMean Instilu-
tionsof ihe United. States :ive the only ones
which would suit this couiitiy. The work was
translated by a gentleman of ikdtimore, and
