tant Ballads," published, by Ridgeway, will be mentioned hereafter. 6. "Ten Letters on the Female Martyrs of the Reformation," published by the Protestant Mission. 7 and 8. "Hactenus" and "A Thousand Lines," most whereof are in my "Cithara" and Miscellaneous Poems. 9. A pamphlet about Canada, and its closer union to us by dint of imperialism and honours, dated several years before these have come to pass. 10. Sundry shorter pamphlets on Rhyme, Model Colonisation, Druidism, Household Servants, My Newspaper, Easter Island, False Schooling, &c. &c. Not to mention some serial letters long ago in the _Times_ about the Coronation, Ireland, and divers other topics. Every author writes to the _Times_. 11. As a matter of course I have written both with my name and without it (according to editorial rule) in many magazines and reviews, from the _Quarterly_ of Lockhart's time to the _Rock_ of this, not to count numerous reviews of books _passim_, besides innumerable fly-leaves, essayettes, sermonettes, &c. &c., in the _Rock_ and elsewhere. 12. I was editor for about two years of an extinct three-monthly, the _Anglo-Saxon_: in one of which I wrote nine articles, as the contributions received were inappropriate.

Some printed letters of mine on Grammar, issued in small pamphlet form at the _Practical Teacher_ office; and sundry others unpublished, called "Talks about Science," still in MS. 14. "America Revisited," a lecture, in three numbers, of _Golden Hours_. 15. Separate bundles of ballads in pamphlet form about Australia, New Zealand, Church Abuses, The War, &c. &c. Besides possibly some other like booklets forgotten. CHAPTER XX. PATERFAMILIAS, GUERNSEY, MONA. When I returned in the autumn of 1855 from my principal continental tour, wherein for three months I had conducted my whole family of eleven (servants inclusive) all through the usual route of French and Swiss travel,--I committed my journal to Hatchard, who forthwith published it; but not to any signal success,--for it was anonymous, which was a mistake: however, I did not care to make public by name all the daily details of my homeflock pilgrimage. The pretty little book with its fine print of the Pass of Gondo as a frontispiece, nevertheless made its way,
