Books with title Chambers's Edinburgh Journal

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Excerpt from Chambers's Edinburgh Journal, Vol. 9: January-June, 1848On that stern image, stern, yet sweet withal Stooping decrepitude, old age's dower, Hath fled, and left the impress of high power But what or whence no mortal tongue may say, Save 'tis the seal of Heaven, though set in clay.Bring the rude coffin, while the country poor Stand in mute grief about the hostel door.True mourners they and Kitty, faithful soul, Gives each, for Molly's sake, a funeral dole; And, sighing at her heart, tends pigs and fowls, And bird and beast - and when the screeching owls Raise their wild night-cries, she, with shuddering speed, Binds bolt and bar, and sits her down to read, Lonely and sad, beside the hostel fire, Still anxious that the flames should kindle higher For every shadow wears a ghostly gloom.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Chambers's Edinburgh Journal, Vol. 7: January-June, 1847What do you mean to do, then, to increase the sum? Do you mean to make another bet with yourself?' No, no; that is well enough in its way when there is nothing else to be done; but I have now got a capital to begin the day with. There are worse dodges than picking up stones but it is not respectable. I will turn these browns, master, into a white shilling before long, if I once make up my mind what lay to go upon.'About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
