Beschreibung:
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Few persons of matter-of-fact temperament know how difficult it is for the imaginative, how ever truthful in intention, to adhere rigidly to bald literality of narration. Any impartial and dispassionate observer, who has ever seen the experiment of Russian scandal, and witnessed the ludicrous discrepancies of statement which occur between twelve people of unimpeachable veracity, who could have no possible induce ment to exaggerate, will admit that there is nothing so little to be relied on as verbal accuracy in the case of a tale which has passed through many mouths. I fancy I can illustrate, if I cannot explain, these mysterious results by analogy.
