WE left Tom Edwards mysteriously swallowed up, like a stage ghost down a trap-door. And do you know, reader, I am very near leaving him so for good and all, and suspending these sketches indefinitely — ^yea, even to the time of the Mississippi dividends, or any other period beyond the Greek Oalends that your imagination can conjure up. For the wise men — and the wise women, too — of Gotham are wroth with me, and one says that I am writing on purpose tO'^Mbel this man or puff that woman, and ano...ther charges me with sketching my own life in Praser for self-glorification, and a third holds up the last number of Pendennis at me and says, ' If you eould write like that^ there would be some excuse for you, but you won't as long as you live.* * Alas, no !* said I, and was just going to burn my unfinished papers, and vow that I would never again turn aside from my old craft of reviewing. But then came reflection in the shape of a bottle of true Dutch courage — genuine Knicker- bocker Madeira — and said * Why shoidd you be respon- sible for resemblances you never meant, if people will insist on finding them?
