Excerpt from The Keepsake for 1829 IN presenting another volume of the Keepsake to the public, it may, perhaps, be deemed necessary to make a few. General observations. The universal approbation which the embellish ments of the previous number excited, and its un precedented sale, have determined the Proprietor to make the most strenuous exertions to render the present, as perfect as possible, both in literary matter, and in pictorial illustration. In prosecution of this design, and on the various departments of the Keepsake, the enormous sum of eleven thousand guineas has been expended.

Excerpt from The Juvenile Keepsake, 1829 But the Editor must not, for a moment, trust his short preface with a topic that would necessa rily lead him into a very long one. He is too well aware, that in the performance of the charities and duties of life, as in acts of courtesy, kindness, and goodness - a grateful silence is ever most pleasing to his excellent and accomplished countrywomem England's cherished wives and daughters, whose attractions are surpassed only by their virtues.
