We learn from the preface of this valuable little book that it is the reprint of a paper written for the Congrès International d'Assistance, held in Paris in July and August, 1889.

"If, as seems most probable, the first edition was issued prior to John Newbury's death, in 1767, there is an interesting question as to who prepared the collection for the press. The rhymes are avowedly the favorites of the nursery, but the preface and the foot-notes are an evident burlesque upon more pretentious works. The first and most natural conclusion is that we may trace therein the hand of Goldsmith, an opinion held by Mr. Welsh. The probability, or even possibility, of this idea, would give an added interest to this collection. At all events, Goldsmith was a constant writer for Newberry from 1762-67, when the latter died; and some of this literary work was undoubtedly for the children's books."Preface. Mullholland, R.
