Excerpt from Passages From the Diary of General Patrick Gordon of Auchleuchries: A. D. 1635-A. D. 1699 Ellesmere, and it was published in the avowed hope that it might induce one of the Scotch clubs, or two or three of them in friendly alliance, to undertake an edition of selections from the original text.' The spalding club was specially referred to, and it lost no time in taking measures for accomplishing an object so desirable in itself, and so much in accordance with the purposes of the As sociation. Its President, the Earl Of Aberdeen, then First Lord of the Treasury, made application to the Court of St. Petersburg for a transcript of all the passages of General Gordon's Diary which related to his native country. The request was granted with a prompt and liberal courtesy for which the warmest acknowledgements are due; and the selections which fill most of the following sheets were placed at the disposal of the Club in a careful copy made from the original, in the Imperial Archives of Russia, by the hand of all others best qualified for the task, that of the excellent editor of the German translation Dr. Posselt accompanied his transcript by a note explaining that while he. Had been at pains to preserve Gordon's orthography, he had not thought it necessary to retain the many abbreviations which obscure or perplex the original. He adds that it is so faulty in the names of persons and places, especially in Russia, that not a few of them are disguised beyond his power of recognition. The passages transcribed by Dr. Posselt, and now printed from his mm, are six in number. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
