"This air relates to, and bears the name of, the editor's native district, at present, he regrets to say, divested by absence, death, and other casualties, of every friend, but those who have forfeited all title to the appellation, and of every circumstance that could tend to render his residence agreeable or comfortable, though once the scene of his highest enjoyments, and still of his dearest local attachments" [Fraser].
