Excerpt from Third Pot-Pourri

I must apologise to the public for the apparent poor ness of idea in again repeating my somewhat tiresome title. I heard Mr. Motley, the historian, once say, a title should be 'telling and selling.' A 'third pot-pourri will very likely turn out to be neither of these, but it seemed to me the most honest title I could think of towards those who were kind enough, not only to read, but to like, my former books. They may find the matter in this book better or worse, the manner is exactly the same as before, and it could hardly be otherwise at my age.
