It seems that the gentlemen in Canada, carry this indecent exposure of the person to an extent, which it would be mincing matters to call merely barefaced. We are indebted to Captain Hall for the following anecdote. (Vol. i. p. 246.) "At this critical stage of our progress, when, I suspect, we only wanted a' good excuse for turning back, but were deterred from saying soby the mere fact of its being hazardous to advance, we observed a portly-looking horseman approaching us from the marsh. In reply to our interrogatories, as to the stale of the roads further on, he shook his head, and assured us, they were much worse than any we had yet seen. 'The truth is, ' added he, chuckling at his own prowess 'I had myself some considerable distance to ride, through a place where it was so deep that the water came far above my knees, ' On hearing this assertion, our eyes naturally glanced, incredulously, to his nether garments, which were perfectly sleek, .clean, and dry. 'Oh!' cried he, guessing our thoughts, and smacking his thigh with his hand, ' I was obliged to take off these articles (naming them), and by hanging them over my shoulders I did very well, as you perceive." Captain Hall seems to have struck up an intimacy at once with this gentleman, whom he familiarly designates afterwards, (p. 247, ) as "our fat friend," the well known phrase of Brummcl.

They are of a no miscellaneous character, dealing with almost every conceivable topic bearing upon life at sea, arranged with little idea of order. As it was impossible to reprint the whole of the work in this series, it was decided to select what appeared to be most entertaining portion, the authors experiences in India, Ceylon and Borneo. The present work, therefore, comprises chapters i, vi, and vii of Volume n of the Second Series, and Volume n of the Third Series of the Fragments. CONTENTS: INTRODUCTION CHAPTER I BOMBAY II SIR SAMUEL HOOD AND THE ALLIGATOR HUNT III PICNIC PARTY IN THE CAVE OF ELEPHANTA IV EXCURSION TO CANDELAY LAKE IN CEYLON V GRIFFINS IN INDIASINBADS VALLEY OF DIAMONDS A MOSQUITO HUNT .
