Transcriber’s note:

Original spelling and grammar have been generally retained, with some exceptions noted below.

Page xi. The phrase ‹Weath of Nations› was changed to ‹Wealth of Nations›.

Page xiii. The phrase ‹‘I am much pleased with› was changed to ‹“I am much pleased with›.

Page xxiii. The phrase ‹int his room while› was changed to ‹into his room while›.

Page 144. The phrases ‹Xerxes’s army› and ‹Xerxes’ army› are both retained.

Page 157n. The phrase ‹much rom their business› was changed to ‹much from their business›.

Pages 162–163. The phrases ‹“that in the year› (p. 162) and ‹north exposition.”› (p. 163) contain unbalanced quotation marks in the original. Two new double quotation marks have been inserted to balance these, at ‹“‘Hybernum fracta› and ‹“He speaks of that river’s›.

Page 254. The phrase ‹SAMILLUS, MARCUS FURIUS› was changed to ‹CAMILLUS, MARCUS FURIUS›.

Page 258. This (originally unnumbered) page begins sixteen pages of advertisements from The Walter Scott Publishing Co. A new heading ‹ADVERTISEMENTS› was inserted. This new heading contains also the footer text that was originally printed on each page of the ads section. The ads were printed in several different styles with considerable variation. The styling has been herein greatly simplified. Several large curly brackets ‹}› that graphically indicate combination of information on two or more lines of text have been eliminated, by restructuring the text. Ditto marks ‹Do.› were also removed.
