Excerpt from The Literary Life and Correspondence of the Countess of Blessington, Vol. 1 of 3 The correspondence and other papers of Lady Blessington that have been made use of in these volumes, are connected by a slender thread of biographical illustration, which may serve to give some idea of the characters and position, and prominent traits or peculiarities of those who are addressed, or referred to in this correspondence, or by whom letters were written which are noticed in it. In doing this, I trust it will be found I am not unmindful of the obligations I am under to truth and charity, as well as to friendship, obligations to the living as well as to the dead but, on the contrary, that I am very sensible, that literature is never more profaned, than when such claims being forgotten or unfelt, statements or sentiments expressed in confidence to pri vate persons that are calculated to hurt the feelings, to injure the character, or prejudice the interests of individuals, in any rank of life, are wantonly, malevolently, or inconsiderately disclosed.
