 Folio, bl.ifh letter, 10/. 10.?, 
 
 Very tine copy, extremely rare, and apparently the (irst book printed in 
 •Spanish, relating to America; — unknown to Robertson. 
 
 Enciso having gained a considerable sum iu St. Domingo by practising 
 law, was induei'd by Ojeda to join him in an expedition of discovery 
 and conquest to the continent of America. After suffering great hard- 
 ships and hair-breadth escajies, which are relnted by Ilcrrera, he re- 
 turned to Sjjain, and jniblishcd tiiis work for the instruction of Clmrles 
 V. The account of America is ])rincipally from his own observations, 
 and his account of his intimation to the Indians of Cenu to surrender 
 to the King of Spain, one of the most singular relations that ever 
 escaped the scrutiny of the Spanish Incpiisition. In his Account of 
 Africa, he speaks of a Nation in the Interior, skilled in the making of 
 all sorts of Arms of iron and steel.

 These are the laws issued hy Charles V., for the regulation of the govern- 
 ment of the Contjuests of the Spaniards in the New World, and for the 
 better treatment of tlie Indians, and limiting the partitions of lands 
 among the Conquerors, whieh oeeasioned the insurreetion in Peru, 
 headed by Gonzalo Pizarro, who, in consequenee, finally ended his life 
 upon a scaffold. 
 
 This Jirst eolleetion of ])rinted laws relating to the new world, is of the 
 greatest rarity. No author speaks of their having been printed, and 
 as they were soon after revoked, it is highly probable hat tlu; 
 edition was supjjressed. 
 
 Tlie articles relating to the better usage of the Indians were the fruit of 
 the unremitting exertions of the benevolent Las Casas.

 copy of its elder brother the Meiil: Dntifitiin, of which not even a frag- 
 ment, a ci ijit, remains to bless the eyes, and empty the pockets of the 
 curious and keen collector. I (lec])ly regret my utter inability to oiler 
 any satisfaction on this point. Literary research is at i)resent at a 
 very high jioint of activity, and if such a volume be by any accident 
 discovered, let us hope tliat this country (England) may find for it a 
 safe and permanent home"

 its pomp, pride and circumstance, amidst the tunudtiious acclamati..ns 
 of the i)o|iidace, the array of functionaries, civil and military, aiul the 
 deafeniuu; bursts of martial music, he describes himself as almost 
 lifted out of self-command by the excitement of t'le scene, aiul at the 
 crisis N.hcn the royal pair actually passed lu'ar him, he was re.uly to 
 break out into some wild s dly of enthusiasm. Restrained hiipjiily 
 from this piece of indiscretion, he resolved to set about some work 
 which he mii^bt, in due s,n-;on, exhibit as the otfspriim- of hi.s t-eemini^ 
 loyalty, and liumbly crave for it the royid blessing;. The woi-k is r.'n- 
 dered more precious by information scattered through it, derived from 
 thi' i^rcat seamen of that day, with wluun the author's turn of mind 
 ivd him to associate. in one chajiter he speaks of " the voyages of 
 that woortliy owlde man Sebastian Cabote, yet livynge in Englande." —

 borne at Angleria, in tlie Duchy of Milaiie, then President of the 
 Spanish Kinj^es C'ounscll for the West Indies, gathered into one 
 vohinie, and leavini^ asich' all snperfliiou^ narrations, made thereof, as 
 it were, one hricfe and coi.tiMuall iiistorie. This vnlmne divided he 
 into eyght Decades, ai'ter the (iretke worde, so calling the sundry 
 parcels thereof, for that each one ecnteynetli in it ten jiartieular 
 bookes or chapters. 11. Eden, our coinitrevnum, did into English, 
 when K. I'hilijjpe was in Engiande, the three first Decades, and the 
 fourth also, though under a wrong title, according to the Dutch 
 printer's edition, wherein the fifte, sixte, seventh, and eighth Decades 
 were left out. lie translated, moreover, Gonzales Ferdinandu.s 
 Oviedus hreviary of the West Indies, and gathered together out 
 of many myghty and huge workes, some other prety pamflettes con- 
 cernyng the Spanyarde's and I'liitugalles voiages into the late dis- 
 covered lands, adding thereto cerlaine discourses of the north partes. 
 These his aforesayde doinges, as fewe niennes works, at the first come 
 exactly aljrode, this jtaynefull translatour niynded, if not to amende, at 
 the least to augment, hy puttyng thereunto in English, Lewis Varto- 
 mannus Navigation into Egypt, Arahia, Siria, Persia, and India, with 
 our Merehantes, Muscovian and Persian travelles : but death jirevented 
 his purpose, not sutfryng him to accomi)lif<h his desire. — Christian rlia- 
 ritie, therefore, unto the party departed, caused me to heljje his workes 
 forwarde. Nature moved me to take some jjaynes in placing orderly 
 that whiehe he had confusedly given out, the better to direct and the 
 more to profit the reader : My profession enforced me to cut of some 
 superfluous translations, and to till up the rest of his doinges with P. 
 Martyr's other writinges, and linally to furnish his wants with my own 
 store." — London, the 4th day of July, \'i77. 
 
 " This greate and large volume eonsisteth principally of foure partes, 
 agreeable unto those foure corners o*' the worlde, vvhereunto the 
 skilfuU seamen and merchauntes adventurers of late yeeres have chiefly 
 travelled, and yet specially are wont to resorte. The first part eon- 
 teyneth four Decades written by P. Martyr. The fourth Decade, for 
 so was it named in the Spanyards edition of P. Martyr, his workes 
 set forth at Alcala, A. D. L")3(l, though the Basile and Cullen printers 
 have entitled it, De iii.\vlis nnpcr iarenlis, t'.iat is, of Islandes lately 
 found out, to wit, after Colombiis voyages, &c. Hereunto have we 
 added, Gmiznlun Fordinandvs Oriedus historic ("onteining in 18 
 severall chapters, a briefe declaration of the West Indysh navigation, 
 &e. To tliis we have added certaine speciall reports of New Spaine or 
 Medico, of Peru, of Rio dc In Plata, and the countrey lying thereunto, 
 of the lands Lalirador and Jiuciiiaon, with the discoveryng of Florida. 
 
 " The Seconde part of this work appeareth what it is, by the title thereof, 
 to wyt, a discHiurse to prove that there is a passage to the Moluccaes,

 lord or baron of Hcrhestein, with the lountreys, as well north and 
 north east, beyond Moscoria, namely, Pctzora, Jitfira, and other ])ro- 
 vinces of the Tartars : as also the voyages made through Moscoria, by 
 the Merehantes of London into Persia, eonteinyng many speeiall 
 thynges woorth the knowledge, both of the eountrey itself, the commo- 
 dities thereof, the manners of the people, and the priviledges granted 
 unto our Merehauntes by the Sophie, or Shaiif/h, the Persian Kyny. 
 
 " Finally, in the fourth i)art, aresetdowne our merehauntes voyages into 
 Guinea, and the other Pareelles of Affrike lying towards the south east, 
 Lewis Vertomannus Navigations into Egypte, Ethiopia, Arabia, 
 Syria, Persia and East India, even to the fruitefuU Molucraes, with 
 the jirices of drugges and other wa "^s brought from thenee. Whereto 
 for a conelusion, have we added partly out of Maximilian Transil- 
 vanns letter, wrytten unto the C'ardinall of Salsbnryhe, and partly 
 out of P. Martyr's other workes, that famous navigation made round 
 about the whole world : the contention betwixte the Portugales and 
 Spanyardes for the Moluccaes, and the deeydyng thereof, by Pope 
 Alexander the Syxt : and last of all, the abridgement of P. Martyr's 
 foure last Decades, wherein especially that noble and glorious conquest 
 of Mexico is written. Generally this much of the foure parts of this

 Tlie Sieur de Fuinee tells the " rpader" that the first edition of his work 
 (in ir)r8) was so hastily and badly executed, tliat he thought it wouhi 
 have fallen still born from the jiress ; but having learnt, to his surprise, 
 that it had reached a fourth edition, he took pity ujjon it, and cor- 
 rected it as far as in his power. Tiic following specimen, which is tiie 
 same in all tiie editions, is not favourable either to the translator, or 
 to his corrections. Gomara, in chap. 3."), speaking of the quantity of 
 sugar produced, says there are in Ilisi)aniola " al pie de treinta inge- 
 nios y trapiches ricos," which M. Fumee translates, " il y a jdus de 
 trente engins & la trajivque en est fortriehe." A few lines afterwards 
 he translates "Trapiches" (sugar mills) ])y "une charge de cheval" —

 countries, called by the Frenchmen La Cadie, lying to the 
 S. W. of Cape Breton ; together witli an excellent severall 
 Treatie of all the commodities of the said countries, and man- 
 ners of the naturall inhabitants of the same. Translated out 
 
 of French into pjnglish, by P. E London. 
 
 Small 4to, 21. 2s. 
 The dedication is signed P. Erondelle, who, in an address to the reader, 
 says, " that the whole volume of the navigation of the French nation 
 into die West Indies, (comprised in three books,) was brought to him 
 to be translated, by Mr. Richard Hakluyt, by whom this part was se- 
 lected and chosen from the whole work, for the particular use of this 
 nation, to the end, that comparing the goodness of the lands of the 
 northerly parts herein mentioned, with that of Virginia, which must be 
 far better, by reason it stands more southerly, neerer to the sun, 
 greater encouragement may be given to prosecute that generous and 
 godly action, in planting and peopling that country, to the better pro- 
 pagation of the gospel of Christ, the salvation of innumerable souls, 
 and general benefit of this land, too much pestered with over mariy 
 people.'^ No mention is made of Lescarbot in this book, which h, in 
 fact, a translation of the latter half of the preceding work of that author, 
 from the thirty-first chapter of the second book to the end of the third 
 and last.

 As the author was born in Peru, a descendant from the Incas, and ac-

 has been considered of high authority. Robertson denies this, but 
 allows that it contains " some curious facts taken from authors whose 
 works were never published, and are now lost." It was reprinted in 
 1723. An English translation, by Sir Paul Rycault, was published in 
 1688. The second part was first printed in \<il7.

 had undertaken to plant a circuit in the Newfoundland, and had in two 
 several years sent thither divers men and women, and was willing to 
 entertain such as would be adventurers with him upon fit conditions. 
 This is no doubt the author of the present work, as reference is made 
 in it to the Carolea Carnhrensis, as being by the same author, and that 
 work was published in Ki'io, as the production of William Vaughan, 
 A.M. 
 
 Vaughan, it seems, was desirous of putting forth a book, to recommend 
 his Cambrioll Colchos, and to induce settlers to proceed th "re ; but 
 learning at his bookseller's that most serious works were sold as 
 waste paper, " even for two-pence a quire," he began to rouse up his 
 thoughts, and thoroughly to ruminate on some plot, "which might in- 
 vite our worldlings for their present and future good to embrace those 
 fortunes, which, with open armes, this sister-land offers unto us." 
 For the accomi)lishment of which, under a poetical style, he resolved 
 to use the name of the great Apollo, after the manner of Boccalini, 
 whose work, he says, he had lately communicated to English readers. 
 Altogether the work is one of the most curious and singular of the 
 time, a com])ound of truth and fiction, of quaint prose and still 
 quainter verse ; and although it does not add much to our information 
 respecting the early settlement of Newfoundland, is well deserving of 
 n place in an .\merican Library. Tlie map by Captain John Mason, 
 who spent seven years in the country, is very rarely found with the 
 book.

 This tract has the above title on the second leaf. It commences with an 
 address " to the reader," signed M. S. which states that it was written 
 by a Rev'- Divine* now there living, " who onely sent it to some 
 friends here which were desirous of his relations ; which isan ejiitomy 
 of their proceedings in the jilantation." The date may be nearly 
 ascertained by the following paragra})!! on the last i)age. 
 
 " There are in all of us both old and new jdanters, about three hundred ; 
 whereof two hundred of them are settled at Nehum-kek, now called 
 Salem : and the rest have planted themselves at Mamthulets Bay, be- 
 ginning to build a towne there, which we doe call Cherton or Charles 
 Towne." This occurred in 1(;28.

 There are at least two editions of this work in folio, with the same date, 
 but one of them apjiarently ])rinted about ITOO. One of them has an 
 additional chapter, with the following note : — 
 
 " This Chapter, which is the last in the original, was not printed on ac- 
 count of its appearing useless, and is nov added by desire of a loiter 
 of the integrity of the v-ork." An edition in four volumes octavo was 
 printed in 17!)") ; and an English translation in 1800. 
 
 Bernal Diaz del Castillo had been an adventurer in each of the expedi- 
 tions to New Spain, and was the companion of Cortes in all his battles 
 and perils. When he found that neither himself, nor many of his fel- 
 low soldiers were once mentioned by Gomara, but that the fame of all 
 their exploits was ascribed to Cortes, the gallant old veteran laid hold 
 of his pen with indignation, and composed his " True History." It 
 contains a prolix, minute, confused narrative of all Cortes' operations, 
 in such a rude vulgar style as might be expected from an illit»'rate

 A vohiine of ujiwurds of a thousand pages, containinj, a diffuse narrative 
 of occurrences in Canada, fr(nn If) 1 5 until the French were driven out 
 by Kirk (called by the French Kcrtk) and his associates, in l(!2i). 
 " The author resided several years among the Hurons, and relates with 
 great simplicity all that he saw and heard, but had not sufficient leisure 
 to yee mu- V, and still less to ascertain the truth of what was related to 
 him. His Huron Vocabulary (see HV.\2) proves that neither himself 
 nor those he consulted, understood that difficult language, consequently 
 the number of savages converted in his time could not have been great. 
 In other respects, he apj^ears to have been a person of judgment, and 
 very zealous, not only in the conversion of souls, but also in the pro- 
 gress of the Colony which he had seen commenced, and nearly destroyed 
 in its infancy, by the invasion of the English." This judgment of 
 Father C/iarlevoi.r, a Jesuit, bears strong marks of the " esprit du 
 corps." The Rpcnllects commenced tlieir missions into Canada ten 
 years before the Jesuits, but he would insinuate, tliat but little had 
 been done until the arrival of his own order.

 Tlie French Jesuits oommencetl the imblication of their Relations of Oc-

 lection of these Relations is not to be found even in the Royal Library

 Tliis little volume is highly prized by collectors of rare books, and has 
 sold as high as 1(1/. ; but, according ro Barcia, its rarity is not owing 
 to a rigid suppression of the work by order of Philip IV., as is stated 
 by most bibliographical writers, but from a very small number of copies 
 having been printed. It was probably not intended for sale, as it is 
 not furnished with the licences and privileges usually prefixed to books 
 published at that time. Acuna was accompanied by Artieda, a brother 
 Jesuit, and the object of their voyage was to ascertain whether the 
 treasures of Peru might not be brought to Euroj)e by the way of the 
 river Amazon, without going through the South Sea, at that time much 
 infested by pirates, and round Cajjc Horn.

 This book has nothing to Jo with Peruvian history ; it is called by the 
 French writers, an allegorical and historical romance. It relates to 
 the times of Louis XIII. from HilO to 164.'5, but more particularly to 
 Gaston de Orleans, and Marffaret of Lorraine, his second wife, who are 
 made the hero and heroine of the j)iece. All the names of persons and 
 places arc Peruvian, and one of my copies has the explanatory key, 
 which is said to be of great rarity. Both have the enigmatical key, and 
 the " Conclusio ct Iuteri)retati() totius opcris eodum authore. —

 blished in the same year. It appears from the dedication, that so 
 early as March 17, lfi47, the Committee of Foreign Plantations was 
 ordered to " prepare and bring in an ordinance for the encouragement 
 and advancement of learning and piety in New England," but which 
 from the " many and weighty occasions and businesses of the Iiouse" 
 had not before taken effect. The initials J. D. on the title, are pro- 
 bably those of Mr. John Dury, author of a long letter in Thorow- 
 good's " Jewes in America."

 and works refers those who wish for more particular information con- 
 cerning the plants of the Indies, and their medicinal uses." Leon 
 (Piiielo) in his Biblioteca, printed in 1G2(), says that it was already 
 printed in Germany, and that Pedro dc la Seyne, in his Homeri 
 Nrpcutlics, also (pioted it as printed. At Jiage 4(50, there is an address 
 to the reader, dated in Home, Hi'i"), which appears to have been 
 placed instead of an address to Cardinal Barberini, with the same 
 date, and in nearly the same words (both of which are in my copy.) 
 Which shows that part of the work was probably printed before 1044, 
 when Innocent X. was made Po])c, and expelled the Barberini, by 
 whose means he had hccn elected, from Rome. A dedication to the 
 same Cardinal, at page DO.J (also in mine) without date, is supplied ia 
 most copies by another to the Duke del lufantado, dated Rome, Ki;')!. 
 lusome co[iies, even the figure of the Dragon, at p. 8Hi, dedicated also 
 to Cardinal Barberini, is torn out. Some copies have a plant engraved 
 on cop))er, at p. 2i;i. and another at p. iUll, but which arc generally 
 wanting : many copies have only the engraved title page ; in some 
 d.idd Kl.'il, in otlu rs l(il!». It ai)pears probable, that the body of the 
 wcrk was ])rintcd in 1(J2.") ; when a few copies got abroail, and that it 
 nil!- comjilctcd. and some change.- made, in l(>l!/-ril .

 Ilernnnile/ was I'liysirian to Plullip II., by whom he was scn^ 
 to Mexico, to examine and describe its natural productions, and ascer- 
 tain their medicinal properties. He wrote a coj)i()US history in Latin, 
 which was given to Nardo Antonio Recce, a Napolitan physician, foi 
 examination, who reduced it to a moderate compass. The original of 
 this abridgment, with tlie censorshii) and approbation of Dr. Valle, 
 by some singular chance, fell into the hands of the Dominican Friar, 
 Fr. Francisco Ximencz, in Mexico, by whom it waa translated into 
 Spanish, and printed in that city in 4to. in 1615. This work corres- 
 ponds almost exactly to the X books published in Rome, in ]648-.')l, 
 but both differ materially from the Plant. Nov. Hisp. &c. published by 
 Ortega, from Hernandez' manuscripts in 1790. Most of the original 
 MSS. of Hernandez were destroyed by the fire at the Eseurial in 
 \67l. There is extant a MS translation of Pliny by Hernandez. Very 
 little is known r '^ii 3 "^is life, although much more worthy of a 
 
 niche in the temph \ 7an ., chan many of his cotemporaries. Like 
 his early friend ana Tipan,"i Ambrosio de Morales, he probably 
 flourished during the greater pui ' of the Kith century. His native 
 place was Toledo.

 The running title; is " Wonder working Providence" of SionN Siiviour

 instead of the original, wliich is signed T. II. Thi; author, whoever 
 lie was, tiad a most intolerable itch for versifying, celebrating most of 
 the characters he speaks of, in some *' short nieeter, in the author's 
 ' rude verse, penned of purpose to kecpe in memory the names of such 
 
 worthies as Christ made strong for himselfe, in this unwonted worke 
 of his." The following are in lionor of Gov. Elndicott : 
 
 " Strong valiant John, wilt thou march on, and take up station first, 
 Christ call'd hath thee, his souldier l)e, and fail not of thy trust ; 
 Wilderness wants, Christ's grace supplants, then j)lant his churches 
 pure. 
 With tongues gifted, and graces led, help thou to his procure ; 
 Undaunted thou wilt not allow, malignant men to wast:', 
 
 Ciirist's vineyard heere, whose grace should cheer, his well beloved's 
 taste. 
 Then honoured be, tliy Christ hath thee, their generall promoted. 
 To sliew their love, in jilace above, his ])eop!e have thee voted. 
 Yet must thou fall to grave with all the nobles of the i-arth, 
 Thou rotting worme, to dust must turn, and worse but for new 
 birth."

 The author of this work was a priest, who, on his voyage from Lima to 
 Spain, by the way of Panama and I'ortobello, met with more disajsters 
 than perhaps ever fell to the lot of one man. In a shipwrecrk in the 
 gulf of Mexico, only forty-five souls out of (i.'iO were saved : but the 
 author seems to think his greatest misfortune was that of being cap- 
 tured by Euylish hcrelics, by whom he says his sacerdotal characiter 
 was less resi)ected than it was l)y the elements themselves. There are 
 few personal narratives so full of incident and adventure, having more 
 the air of a romance than a relation of facts.

 These four works were till jirinti'il M'pamtfly, yllw second ami third in 
 1().'(8,) but I Id'licvo nri' filw.iys iountl Idijcrlior. TliiTi' is an index (if 
 the cud, wliicli rct'crs to tlic tour jiiuls, but witliout any distinguisliinuj 
 mark, by which the reader may a.sccrtuiu in wliich book tlie artiidc 
 referred to is to be found. It is altogether a very singular jicrform- 
 anci-, containing a great deal of inijiortant information, rel.-itive to the 
 early history of New Engliind, aiul particularly of the district of 
 Maine, wliieh was granted originally to the author's grand father, by 
 whom the second work was writti'n. Not the least singular circum- 
 stance relating to this work, perhaps, is the manner in which Fcrdi- 
 nando Gorges, Esf|. has appropriated to himself tlie authorship of a 
 work written bj another, as ap)H'ars by the following extract from 
 Prince's New England. (See \7'M}.) 
 
 " When I went to England, I met with a great variety ot Books and 
 Panii)hlets relating to this country. Among others, in a history of 
 New En!,land, from Ui28 lo Kiul, printed in Ito. London. Hi,")!, I 
 found many particulars of tlie beginning of our several churches, towns 
 and colonies, which ajipear in no other writer. The running title of 
 the liook is, " Wonder workim; Providence," I'tc. and in the genuine 
 title page, no author is iiameil. Sonu- of the books were faced with a 
 false title page, vvherein the work is wi ongly assigned to Sir F. Georges : 
 but the true author was Mr. Johnson, of Wobiirn, in New En^l.md, 
 as the Lite judge Sewall assured me, as of a thing familiarly known 
 among the fathers of the Massachusett's Colony." The third of 
 these books being neither more nor less than the idcntic-d history of 
 New England, (see Ififi-l,) with merely a new title page and dedica- 
 tion. The first and second books arc spoken of in the North 
 American Review, vol. ii, p. 28!(, &e. ; but in ari inverted onhr. The 
 title of the tirst book, as given there, is the same as the title to the 
 third, in my copy Besides the map, there is a portrait of a young 
 Indian woman, with a Iniman leg in her hand ; a foldinir plate, in.-, liheil

 Lcderer was a German, who, it appears, was looked upon with f^reat 
 jealousy by the Virtfinians, and in eonse(|uencp was obliged to take re- 
 fuge in Maryland, where Sir William Talbot beeame aequainted with 
 him, "though then ill affected to the man by the stories that went 
 about of him : nevertheless, tiiidint!; him contrary to my expectation, a 
 modest ingenious person, and a ])retty scholar, 1 thought it common 
 justice to give him an occasion of vindicating himself from what I had 
 heard of him ; whieh truly he did with so convincing reason and cir- 
 cumstance, as (juite abolished those former impressions in me, and 
 made me desire this account of his travels, which here you have faith- 
 fully rendred out of Latine from liis own writings and discourse, witli

 Vol. 2 was first published in 1()99 ; part 1 of vol. A in l/0,'{, and part 2 
 in 1709. They were several times reprinted, the edition of l"2il, in 
 4 volumes, being esteemed the most complete. 
 
 Dampier'ri iirst voyages were made with the Buccaneers, but the account 
 he published in l(i!)7 gave such evidences of his abilities that ho was 
 appointed to the command of H. M. ship Roebuck, and sent on a 
 voyage of discovery to New Holland, dvc, an account of which is con- 
 tained in the third volume. Captain Uampier made another voyage 
 to the South Sea in 1703, of which his mate, William Funnell, return- 
 ing before him, puljlished an account in 1707, which usually forms the 
 fourth volume of Dampier's voyages. Soon after his return, Dam})ier 
 published a small memoir, under the title of 
 
 Captain Dampier's Vindication of his Voyage in the Ship St. George ; 
 with some small observations for the present on Mr. Funnel's chime- 
 rical relation. London, 1707. 
 
 Dampier's next voyage, and the last of which there is any account of his 
 having been engaged in, was with Woodcs Rogers, round the world, in 
 the humble capacity of pilot ! — " What afterwards became of him is 
 not known, but there is no reason to believe that he was secured from 
 indigence in his latter days. It is not easy to name another Voyager 
 or Traveller who has given more useful information to the world ; to

 ble manner. And this he has done in a style ])erfectly nnassuminpf, 
 ccjually free from affectation, and from the most distant aj)i)earanee of 
 invention. It is with jieeuliar justness of feeling that the author of 
 the Naviijation an,v Tcrrcs Ausf rales, speaking of him, demands, " mais

 lie at U'nL;th rtcired to Holland, not, as Charlevoix says, out of dis- 
 gust, at not being allowed to return to America, but by an order ob- 
 taiiu'd by his sujieriors, on account of his obstinacy in refusing to re- 
 turn to America as a Missionary, banishing him from France. In 
 Holland he dedicated the new account of his discoveries to \\'illiam 
 HI. soliciting him to conquer those vast regions, to send out colo- 
 nies, and to cause the Gos])el to be jireached to the infidels. This 
 proceeding, says Charlevoix, scandalized the Catliolica and made even 
 the Protestants laugh, to see a priest calling himself an apostolical no- 
 tary and missionary, exhorting a heretic jjrince to establish a ehui'ch 
 in the new world. Father llonnepin was not one of those who hide 
 vheir candle under a bushel, and provided he obtained his end, does 
 not ajipear to have been over scrupulous in the means. Charlevoix 
 says, that he thought himself entitled to make use of the traveller's 
 privilege, and that in Canada his work was thought very little of, 
 those who accompanied him having often declared, that there was 
 very little truth in his histories. But Father Charlevoix was of a 
 different parish. Father Hennepin himself declares before God, that 
 his relation is faithful and sincere, and that full faith may be given to 
 every thing rej)orted in it. 
 
 At the end of this volume is an account of the discoTcrics of M. 
 Joliet and Father Marquette, probably translated from the octavo 
 eolleetion of Theveiiot.
