In a very good condition. ~ Extracted from the original issue. Book review and extended essay. ~[Librarium of The Hague offers the largest and finest collection of Egyptological offprint monographs in the rare book market. With the acquisition in recent years of multiple Egyptological libraries (those of Prof. Herman te Velde; Prof. Mathieu Heerma van Voss, Prof. Baudouin van de Walle; Prof. Michel Malaise; Prof. Herman De Meulenaere; Egyptologist Jacobus Visser, and former Trustee of the Egypt Exploration Society, Stewart Dale White), we now hold several thousands of rare offprint monographs which were collected over many years by these scholars. Very limited in number when originally issued and fragile by nature, most are by now practically extinct and the scarce survivors are much sought after. We took upon ourselves to collate, catalogue, and identify each item in accordance with Beinlich-Seeber or Annual Egyptological Bibliography, in the hope that this collection will prove useful for scholars and collectors alike.

Smith, Banff, you mention that he wrote "The Ethics of Phrenology" an article in the Edinburgh Review. As this article was generally ascribed to Sir William Hamilton, I should be obliged by your mentioning whether you have full reliance on your authority in ascribing it to Mr. Smith? My only reason for asking the question is to do justice to Sir William Hamilton, if he is not the author.'.

3pp., 4to. Bifolium. In fair condition, on lightly-aged paper. Addressed on reverse of second leaf, with return address, to 'Mr John Jeffrey | Post Office | Deal | Kent'. At the time of writing John Jeffrey was a New York merchant, and would not return to Britain permanently until 1810; it would appear from the letter that he was returning to America following a visit to England. See Cockburn's 'Life of Lord Jeffrey', which contains transcripts of other letters from Francis to John (though none from 1795). The letter begins: 'My dear John | I never had less to say to you than I have at present but never so irresistible an inclination to write to you - and that must be my apology - I have thought so much of you since we parted that I think it will help to divert my attention if I address myself to you directly - It may be of some satisfaction for you to learn that we accomplished our voyage just about the time when we supposed you would be beginning yours and that we are safely returned to our lodgings which do not seem the more comfortable that we feel ourselves more at large in them'. He comments on the pleasure with which he 'observed during your stay here so great a coincidence in our sentiments and habit of thinking as must help us in unity I think during all the rest of our lives - I scarcely know anybody to whom I can make myself so easily understood and nobody with whom I have so generally concurred in my notions of disputable points'. After breaking off the letter he continues the following day: 'the wind is still from the East so that you cannot yet be got very far tho' you are indeed completely separated from us as you will be when you have put the Atlantic between us - My Father [he also uses this phrase in a published letter to his brother] has continued to feel a little of his gout ever since you saw him and expects to be detained here by it some days longer than he expected'. He concludes by urging him to be 'as punctual as possible in your writing and to remember with equal affection those first friends who will always love you better than any other'.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. At the time of writing, a year and a half before his death, Horner was Member of Parliament for St. Mawes in Cornwall. 1p, 4to. Eighteen lines, neatly written. Addressed to My dear Harrison and signed Fra Horner. In good condition, lightly aged, with negligible remnants of windowpane mount adhering at edges of blank reverse. Folded for postage. He has received both of Harrison s letters, and is particularly obliged to him for sending the copy of Stephen s communication. The omission is much to be expected, to which the escape of the convicted [slave?]-dealers is owing; but it is very important that we should be [?], if possible by an official communication of the opinion of the Attorney General, to state to the Subscribers the real grounds of the pardon granted against these men. When it is properly explained, the matter throws new disgrace upon Thorpe. He has not seen the third edition of Thorpe s book, nor the notice with which he has there honored me , and he begins to feel very anxious about the report to be made to the General Assembly . He ends with details of his return to London. Note: He is referring presumably to the trials of the Slave Traders, Samuel Samo, Joseph Peters, and William Tufft (slave traders) and "A letter to William Wilberforce, Esq. M.P., vice president of the African Institution : containing remarks on the reports of the Sierra Leone Company, and African Institution" [pubd 1815][Slave Trade].

2pp, 12mo. On grey paper. In good condition, lightly aged, in neatly-trimmed remains of windowpane mount. Headed Private , addressed to My dear M. D [M. P?] , and signed H. Brougham . Thirty-four lines of text, in a somewhat challenging hand, resulting in the following tentative reading. (In his 1995 biography of Brougham s later life, Trowbridge H. Ford describes him dashing off so many letters as the new session approached, with his bad handwriting getting worse with every stroke, that only the greatest patience can lead to deciphering them .) As it is very possible that the letter he sent to [illegible location] may not have reached the recipient, he writes to insist on your ot going on but coming up here where my mother expects you & will shew you our [Lions?] . He finds it very vexatious that my letter some days [before?] never reached you in which I mentioned that I must set out early [Wedy?] for Liverppol where I shall be kept till Saturday at our Social Science Congress . He asks to be written to at Richmond Hill, Liverpool and concludes: The carriage will be at the station for you at each time a train arrives, to brig you up whether you come today or tomorrow .

He begins by complaining that he has 'only this day got rid of the end of the session - and of the review - and here - for the first time since my return - a morning to myself - and my friends'. He is happy to find himself 'at home again [.] Mrs J. suffered a great deal during the voyage', but has recovered. It will give them both great pleasure 'to see you here'. He does not have 'many marvels to tell you of America but it may serve us for an afternoons chat when we get a day of leisure together'. He has returned 'to a strange crisis of Europe' and does not 'yet know exactly where I am - I feel like one of the seven sleepers just rubbing his eyes after a nap of the centuries'. He ends by expressing pleasure at the news that Mrs Hunter's health has improved, and in a postscript assures him that their accounts 'will be very easily settled'.

4pp, 12mo. Bifolium with mourning border. In good condition, lightly aged and worn, folded twice, with traces of glue from mount adhering to blank reverse of second leaf. Signed 'Macvey Napier' and addressed to 'Robert Macfarlane Esq'. After thanking him for sending a copy of his work on the 'Practice of the Jury Court', he explains that, although the subject 'is of great importance', it 'lies out of that department of the Law' to which Macvey finds it necessary, 'under the pressure of other avocations', to limit his studies. He continues: 'The interest however which I always have taken in your professional progress, from the distinguished figure you made when a student in my class, will induce me to peruse it, as soon as my health, which is being indifferent, and other necessary circumstances'. He ends in the expectation that with his publication MacFarlane will confer 'a valuable present upon [his] professional brethren'.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. The recipient ( Dear Sir ) is not named, but is presumably Alexander Macmillan (see Oxford DNB), the publisher of the two books referred to in the letter, which he seems to have sent for review. The letter is signed H Reeve . Folded for postage. He begins by thanking him for sending copies of Lady Duff Gordon s Letters [from Egypt] and Ecce Homo [ a survey of the life and work of Jesus Christ by J. R. Seeley], which he has already read with great interest . He takes a very different view of it from Lord Shaftesbury &c , and intends to take the first opportunity of saying [so] in the Edinburgh Review , although he will not be able to publish the articles before the next October. He concludes: Mr. Baker is wonderfully amusing & the man is a real Hero in his way. .

4pp., 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condition, on aged paper, with closed tears unobtrusively repaired with archival tape. Addressed to 'John Hunter Esqre | Auditor of Court of Sn.' Written three months before Jeffrey's death, the letter begins: 'My dear Hunter - I hope you do not think that I have been forgetful of you - or indifferent to your fortunes - or ungrateful for your very kind expressions - and I firmly believe feelings - towards me - because I may appear to have been slow in offering you my congratulations on your late appointment [as Auditor of the Court of Sessions]'. Taking up the new appointment will involve Hunter 'relinquishing the situation of [Jeffrey's] private agent and adviser', and this has been a source of 'some anxiety': 'at my age, and with my habits [it is] a great misfortune and embarrassment'. The letter continues with a discussion of the matter. 'I can easily see that your engagements in your new office, may make this matter difficult to arrange - but I wish much that it shld be arranged, if possible, before the courts meet on 13 Novr'. In a postscript he assures him that he believes that he owes his appointment 'entirely to your own merits - and the general good opinion which these merits have won for you'. For more on John Hunter, friend of Leigh Hunt and the Carlyles, whose sister Elizabeth Helen Hunter (1798-1824) married Francis Jeffrey's brother John (1775-1848), and who took over the tenancy of Craigcrook Castle after Jeffrey's death, see Helen Watt, 'John Hunter, the Forgotten Tenant of Craigcrook' (Edinburgh, 1977).
