ADVERTISEMENT TO THE SECOND EDITION OF PART THE SECOND. IN 66 N this edition a few corrections have been made; and the Additional Notes," which were before placed at the end of the volume, have been incorporated with the body of the work. A valuable communication from Mr. Walpole, upon the events which caused a revolution in the Turkish Government, and led to the deposition and death of Sultan Selim, after the author's departure from Turkey, came too late for insertion in the former edition, but is now introduced into the Appendix '. The appearance of the First Section only of PART THE SECOND, gave occasion to a remark, that the author had extended his proposed plan. This however has not been the case: it will be evident, upon referring to the First Part of these Travels, that his design was " to complete the whole in THREE separate PARTS, each Part consisting of one or more volumes." To his first plan he has strictly adhered: and the very favourable reception his work has received, gives him encouragement to hope that he shall be able to accomplish his original undertaking.
