Excerpt from Contributions to "Punch" Not Previously Reprinted The contributions to Punch which occupied the. Latter part of the last volume were all - even J eames which is the most loosely connected of them - more or less integers, though they might be printed in instalments: and they were therefore classed together. Side by side with them, but running farther, is another series of groups which are now to be given in their chronological order, while a selected crowd of purely individual and occasional articles will follow. The Book of Snobs, from its magnitude, is reserved for the next volume. It will be understood-that these three volumes - VI, VII, and VIII - run to a certain extent side by side, and present mainly the work of 1844-9.
