COBDEN BIBLIOGRAPHY.

The basis of this list of the writings of Richard Cobden and the literature to which they have given rise is the Catalogue of the British Museum; but there are many titles included here which are not in the National Library. The British Museum list was reprinted by Mr. T. Fisher Unwin as an appendix to the edition of Cobden's 'Political Writings' published by him. As a matter of convenience the pressmarks at the British Museum have been added to the entries. The letters M.F.L. indicate that the work is not in the British Museum, but may be consulted in the Manchester Reference Library. Articles in biographical dictionaries and encyclopædias have not been included, but reference should be made to R. H. Inglis Palgrave's 'Dictionary of Political Economy' (London, 1894-9, 3 vols.) and Conrad, Elster, Lewis, and Loening's 'Handwörterbuch der Staatswissenschaften' (Jena, 1891-7, 7 vols.). Many magazine articles have appeared relating to Cobden, but a clue to these will be found in Poole's 'Index to Periodical Literature' and its continuation and in Stead's 'Index to Periodicals.' The foreign Cobden literature may be traced by the elaborate general indexes to the Journal des Économistes. The best collection of Cobdeniana known to me is that in the Manchester Free Library.

It would be difficult, and probably impossible, to catalogue or collect Cobden's contributions to periodical literature. Mr. Archibald Prentice, the editor of the Manchester Times, mentions letters that he wrote in that paper; he almost certainly contributed to the Anti-Bread Tax Circular, the League, Tait's Magazine, the Manchester Examiner, and the Morning Star. The North of England Magazine began in February, 1842, and ended September, 1843, when it was incorporated in Bradshaw's Manchester Journal. The editor in the preface to each of the three volumes includes Cobden in his list of contributors, but his articles are not signed. The failure of this magazine was commemorated by the establishment of a club composed of its founders, who, under the name and style of "The Victims," celebrated their own losses. An account of the club appears in the 'Papers of the Manchester Literary Club,' vol. ii. p. 28.
