Book excerpt: Excerpt from Swallow Barn, or a Sojourn in the Old Dominion Painters, I profess to make a strong likeness, even if it should be thought to be hard, -and what better workmen might call a daub, -as to which I must leave my reader to judge for himself when he has read this book. The outward public award on this point was kind, and bestowed quite as much praise as I could have desired - much more than I expected - when the former edition appeared. But the progress has brought out many competitors since that day, and has, perhaps, rendered the public taste more scrupulous. A book then was not so perilous an Offering as it is now in the great swarm of authorships. We run more risk, just now, of being let alone, - unread, - untalked Of - though not, happily, unpuffed by a few newspapers, who are favorites with the publisher, and owe him some courtesies.
