I think I shall gratify a rational curiosity of my readers however much they may condemn my vanity if I give his reply in full: 'Mr Dear Sir "Though I have a great disinclination in general to be the object of literary oblations and compliments yet in the present instance I have enjoyed your writings with such peculiar relish & been so drawn toward the author by the qualities of head and heart evinced in them that I confess I feel gratified by a dedication over flattering as I may deem it which may serve :it's an outward sign that we are cordially linked together in sympathies & friendship.Ever my dear Sir Yours very truly Washington Irving.'Nov1851. I had been personally presented to Mr. Irving for the first time only a year before under the introduction of my good friend Mr. Clark the veteran Editor of the old Knickerbocker in its palmy days. Thereafter I had met him from time to time and had paid a charming visit to his delightful home of Sunnyside. But it was after the date of the publication of this book & during the summer of 1852 that I saw Mr. Irving more familiarly & came to appreciate more fully that charming bonhomie and geniality in his character which we all recognize so constantly in his writings & if I set down here a few recollections of that pleasant intercourse they will I am sure more than make good the place of the old letter of Dedication & will serve to keep alive the association 1 wish to cherish between my little book & the name of the distinguished author who so kindly showed me his favor. I saw Mr. Irving afterward repeatedly in New York & passed two delightful days at Sunnyside. I can never forget a drive with him upon a crisp autumn morning through Sleepy Hollow and all the notable localities of his neighborhood in the course of which he kindly called my attention in the most unaffected & incidental way to those which had been specially illustrated by his pen & with a rare humor recounted to me some of his boyish adventures among the old Dutch farmers of this region. Most of all it is impossible for me to forget the rare kindliness of his manner his friendly suggestions and the beaming expression of his eye. I met it last at the little stile from which I strolled away to the station at Deamian; and when I saw the kind face again it was in the coffin at the little church where he attended service." ; a near FINE copy with a very few marks slight foxing scarce important 19th century American popular fiction.

Now here I bring back these Gleanings from beyond the Waters:-I have plucked a grain-head here and a grain-head there; but only since I have come home and only at your request have I bound a few together in a Sheaf. Here it is homely and rude as our pastures upon the hills: but it has a fragrance for me-dare I hope it can have as much for you In the binding up it has made scenes come back and stir my soul as I thought it could not be stirred twice. Yet is it useless-altogether useless-the effort to make words paint the passions that blaze in a man's heart as he wanders for the first time over the glorious old highways of Europe! This sheaf Mary is a sheaf of tares. You might pardon it: but there is that sly-faced step-dame-the Public-whom as yet I do not know at all-whom as yet I tremble to face; and I fear greatly that she will look with a colder eye than yours over these Gleanings thrown together with the same free and careless hand with which I used to tie up the last sheaves before a shower. But it is too late now to waver: and if I have not one kind look save yours I hope I may have the courage to say in the submissive spirit of Medea:- Eatur-nihil recuso-merui."--Preface ; "Your gleanings are a better gift than most of the heavy-legged reapers who have had the field to themselves have been able to make up from the first cuttings. They have been usually such a dash-a-head bungling set that half the best grain has been left on the ground. Besides they have altogether neglected many little nooks & hollows. Nor are your gatherings any the less charming or gift-worthy that you have tied them up quietly in a corner of the fence-and left too some odd flowers among the heavy grain-heads. Only give the public the thrashing of your sheaf & wait the result. Speaking critically it is as pleasant a book as one could desire for summer reading-as pleasant as he will easily get if he be unreasonable enough to desire a better. It comes to us too in a guise of quaint elegance; a something half way between the finical rudeness of the old style & the hard monotonous brilliance of modern typography-an appearance which happily accords with the matter & manner of the writing a mixture as it is of fastidious simplicity and quaintness an intense love for nature in art a quiet liking for the unique an occasional conceit and some touches of to affectation 'e like the old-looking title-page;- there is as much difference in title-pages as in the tying of different persons' cravats-we like the apt motto from Herodotus-we like the little vignette a simple sheaf of grain not too bulky tied with a wisp of its own straw-an unaffected emblem of the author's modest "gleanings" which he has gathered wanderingly at random & bound them up under the shadow of a tree with an air of indolent nicety. We like too the dividing of his briefly-noticed topics by neither chapter or figure but plain captions & a large plain initial-a style of the last century unassuming & beautiful enough to be brought back again for books of a certain kind.He has therefore in his jottings a little more of what he has seen than of what he has found out-he is more observant than inquiring-the reverse of most American travellers." ---A.
