practised by the 〃new American School。〃 

       〃Of   making   many   books;〃   'twais   said;   〃There   is   no   end;〃   and   who

                                       THE LIBRARY94 



                                         Footnotes: 

     {1}    This is the technical name for people who 〃illustrate〃 books with 

engravings      from    other   works。     The     practice    became     popular    when 

Granger published his 〃Biographical History of England。〃 

     {2}    Mr。 William Blades; in his 〃Enemies of Books〃 (Trubner; 1880); 

decries glass…doors; 〃the absence of ventilation will assist the formation 

of mould。〃      But M。 Rouveyre bids us open the doors on sunny days; that 

the air may be renewed; and; close them in the evening hours; lest moths 

should     enter   and  lay   their  eggs   among     the  treasures。    And;     with   all 

deference   to   Mr。   Blades;   glass…doors   do   seem   to   be   useful   in   excluding 

dust。 

     {3}     〃Send     him   back   carefully;   for  you   can   if  you   like;  that  all 

unharmed he may return to his own place。〃 

     {4}    No   wonder   the   books   are   scarce;   if   they   are   being   hacked   to 

pieces by Grangerites。 

     {5}    These lines appeared in 〃Notes and Queries;〃 Jan。 8; 1881。 

     {6}    In   the   Golden   Ass   of   Apuleius;   which   Polia   should   not   have 

read。 

     {7}    M。 Arsene Houssaye seems to think he has found them; marked 

on the fly…leaves with an impression; in wax; of a seal engraved with the 

head of Epicurus。 

     {8}    This chapter was written by Austin Dobson。DP 

     {9}     The     recent    Winter    Exhibition     of  the   Old   Masters     (1881) 

contained a fine display of Flaxman's drawings; a large number of which 

belonged to Mr。 F。 T。 Palgrave。 

     {10}     By Mr。 Cosmo Monkhouse。 

     {11}      These     words    were    written    before   the   〃Art   Journal〃     had 

published its programme for 1881。             From this it appears that the present 

editor   fully   recognises   the   necessity   for   calling   in   the   assistance   of   the 

needle。 

     {12}     The example; here copied on the wood by M。 Lacour; is a very 

successful reproduction of Clennell's style。 

     {13}     He   also   illustrated   the   〃Memoirs   of   Joseph   Grimaldi。〃      But 

this was simply 〃edited〃 by 〃Boz。〃

     {14}      The   reader   will   observe   that   this   volume   is   indebted   to   Mr。 

Crane for its beautiful frontispiece。 

     {15}      Since this   paragraph   was   first   written   an interesting   paper   on 

the   illustrations   in   〃Scribner;〃   from  the   pen   of   Mr。   J。   Comyns   Carr;   has 

appeared in 〃L'Art。〃
