Editor's Note.

the volume now presented to the American reader contains, without abridgment, the seventh volume of the French Edition, and so much of the eighth volume as was contained in the manuscript which the distinguished Author carried with him when he was banished from France. Previous to the promulgation of the decree of banishment a speedy completion of the work was hoped for, but political responsibilities, and an enforced absence from the collection of books and manuscripts at Chateau d'eu relating to the Civil War of 1861-65, have not justified this hope.

John P. Nicholson. Philadelphia, April, 1888.
