_Burnomania._--I should be glad if any of your correspondents could
favour me with the name of the author of this work: it is entitled
_Burnomania, or the Celebrity of Robert Burns considered_, Edinburgh,
1811, 12mo., pp. 103. In his advertisement to the reader, the author
says:
"Who is the author? Is he a poor man? Is he employed by the
booksellers? Is he a young student? Does he write for fame? For
gain? Does he wish to irritate, to offend, to indulge in a
sarcastic humour? To all these questions, the answer is 'No.'"
