Excerpt from The Naval Chronicle, Vol. 4: From July to January, 1801 IT is said to have been remarked by a late cele brated critic and writer, Dr. Samuel Johnson, that if an Author took care to introduce his book by an elegant and entertaining Preface, it was not, nine teen times in twenty, of much consequence to him how the body of the work was executed - Although there may be some truth in this observation with re spect to literary works in general, yet the Editor of a periodical publication is totally precluded from this advantage. On the other hand, he claims one which is more useful to him perhaps, for he considers him self in general answerable only for a careful arrange ment, and the selection of such materials as he thinks may prove most interesting, for the merit of which he is principally indebted to the labours of his friends, and not his own.
