Cll Zoo Oal, PEEFACB. A FEW words from the Editor will suffice to explain to tlie public the origin of the present work, and sere as an introduction between its writers and its readers. Everyone who has pondered at all on the subject must, we think, have felt how wide a field of history and antiquity is open locally, as well as generally, to those whose tastes and opportunities may induce and enable them to wander within it. Not only every county, but ahnost every village of any size, has connected with its bye-gone days numerous interesting circumstances, and to investigate and collect them is at once a labour of usefulness and a work of pleasure.
