ands, and a second visit to Iceland. He was a
friend of Sir Walter Scott, Lockhart, Dugald Stewart, Mme. de Stael,
Byron, Moore, Campbell, Rogers, Crabbe, Wordsworth, Coleridge,
Talleyrand, Sydney Smith, Macaulay, Hallam, Mackintosh, Malthus,
Erskine, Humboldt, Schlegel, Canova, Sir Humphry Davy, Joanna Baillie,
Lord and Lady Holland, and many other distinguished persons whose names
would occupy a column. In this country he has known, among other
celebrated men, Edward Everett, Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, Abraham
Lincoln, Seward, etc. He was born the same year in which the United
States Constitution was ratified. A life extending over such a period,
and passed in the most active manner, in the midst of the best society
which the world has to offer, must necessarily be full of singular
interest; and Sir Henry Holland has fortunately not waited until his
memory lost its freshness before recalling some of the incidents in it."
