_Note_ (1).--The t.i.tle-pages of Vols. XIII., XIV., XV., XVI., issued in 1833, do not specify the total number of volumes. The t.i.tle-pages of Vol. I. issued in 1835, Vol. II. in 1833, and Vol. IX. in 1834, print the words, "In Seventeen Volumes." There were probably other variations.
There is an ill.u.s.trated t.i.tle-page ornamented with a t.i.tle-vignette (_vide supra et ante_) to each volume.
_Note_ (2).--The editor of these volumes was John Wright (1770?-1844), the editor of Cobbett"s _Parliamentary History_, and the ninth and tenth volumes of Boswell"s _Life of Johnson_ (1836), and of Sir Henry Cavendish"s _Debates of the House of Commons during the Thirteenth Parliament of Great Britain, etc._, two vols. 1841-3.
