Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems, Essays and Opinions, Vol. 1 of 2: Being Selections From Writings in the "Mirror of the Time," From August 7th, 1850, to the End of February, 1851 I must own myself rather a follower of the impulse of truth than the satisfied owner of a suppressed or stagnant conviction.

But with this do I console myself, that to make no public enemies would be but a conviction of the imbecility of a writer. In conclusion, I would merely observe, that the con tents of these pages are very slightly altered in any respect, since their original appearance in the Mirror of the Time. Of the hurry in which they were necessarily written, the dates, which include all the contributions, af ford a sufficient evidence.
