DEDICATION.

I sense, and been vindicated by Recantation in its purest spirit, you re-! main in your dignified station under the best of all pretensions, thatof doing well.
This, Sir, is the unaltered language, and these are the uninvited sen-timents of a plain individual, whose emoluments from the service havealways been little, and whose rank is less ; who is not bribed to flatteryou, orally other distinguished personage, either by a sense of past, or ahope of future, favour ; and who thus adds his slender testimony tothat of the army at large, in acknowledging, that from the GeneralOfficer down to the widow and orphan child inclusive, the happyeffects of your interference continue' to be felt.

Mens agitat molem, et magno se corpore miscet.—Vmon,

Your Royal Highness’s
Very obedient, humble Servant,
CHARLES JAMES.
