[Read at the Meeting of the Society on the 8th September, 1841.]

[This reprint is a pamphlet of eight pages.  The text was again reprinted verbatim as Chapter 14 of vol. 2 of the Rambles and Recollections in the original edition, corresponding to Chapter 7 of the edition of 1893, and Chapter 62 of this (1915) edition.  No contributions by the author of later date than the above to any periodical have been traced.  In a letter dated Lucknow, 12th January, 1853 (Journey, vol. 2, p. 390) the author says-’I was asked by Dr. Duff, the editor of the Calcutta Review, before he went home, to write some articles for that journal to expose the fallacies, and to counteract the influences of this [scil. annexationist] school; but I have for many years ceased to contribute to the periodical papers, and have felt bound by my position not to write for them.’]
