"an elderly gentleman, dressed in an old black coat and cocked hat, by the mune of Knickerbocker," had disappeared from his lodgings; amid "p ;mess of aewapepetl" were iptotmad that they would be aiding the cause of humanity if they should insert the notice. This was the preliminary tuneb W arouse public interest -vr what the print erw*cif near papers to -day would tall an vortising dodge which preceded the appearance of the history. On November II "A Traveller" wrote to the Pod that a per- son answering the description had bees seen resting by the road -side a little above Kingubride, on the Albany said; and un the 16th of November the Ima- ginary landlord 4 "the Independent Columbian Hotel, Mulberry Street," wrote that nothing had been heard of the old gentleman, but that a queer manuscript book had been found in his room, which the landlord said he would be obliged to dispose of to settle his ac- count. On the 28th 4 November, Inakeep and Bradford 128 Broadway, announced that they would shortly pub- lish the work found in Mr. Diedrich Knickerbocker a room, and called a His- tory of New York, in two volumes, duo- decimo, price three dollars; and on De- cember 6, 1809, it was, published. That this was the kind 4 bolder flight of American literary genius which Mr. Buckminster anticipated is improbable. But it is none the less a singular verifi- cation of his anticipation, fur it wag a distinctively American work, and of a quality which . has given it a permanent place in our literature. It was followed, ten years afterward; by Bryant's "Tha- natopeis," which seemed to Mr. R. H. Dana, to whom it was offered for the North American Rer'ie•o'—then more pro- perly a magrzine-to be so different from any strain 4 the American '!fuse that it could not have been written in this country. Those who remember Irving as he appeared in New Yorit'in his later days must often have recalled this prelimi- nary notice of Diedrich Knickerbocker. Poet.
