PREFACE.

The Editor feels grateful for the public approbation so universally bestowed on the Souvenir for 1833, and it has stimulated him to make the present volume still more worthy of the same, by presenting articles generally of a more elevated cast, both in a literary and religious view. As he did in the last, so he can in the present volume declare, that not one word will be found which does not directly or impliedly honour or advance religion. As a present, therefore, for a Christian to give, it is conscientiously declared unexceptionable.
