se discouraged by difficulties or impediments, which to the true scholar, as to every true-hearted laborer in any vocation whatever, will rather prove an incentive than a check upon him. And what are difficulties to true Americans ? There was a time when one could speak of inaccessible rocks, of rapids and tor- rents, which the historian had to surmount and to cross, where he might run the risk of finding himself unexpectedly stopped in his advance, like the bold Emperor Maximilian in his adventurous hunt- ing, by an insurmountable Martinswand of daring and mysterious in- terest, and to use afterwards the reader's charitable faith as the grateful ropes and ladders upon which he climbs again to the safer highway of every-day possibility. The times, however, are gone by, when the monopoly of becoming known and admired was granted only to imperial and lordly adventurers ; and nstead of the said Maximilian, calling by the sounds of his hunting horn not only his companions to the rescue, and exciting the humble astonishment of his faithful subjects, the gallant American sailor, the undaunted back- woodsman, if equally puzzled, whistles Yankee Doodle, and knows how to help himself, unnoticed indeed, but certainly not less courageous. Democracy knows no lasting impediments ; her pro- gress is not stopped by precipices or breakers, but only moderated by a lusty undergrowth, so moderated, as never to become exclusive, and kept in such a spirit that even the advancing pioneer cannot leave behind him the common interest of humanity. To show and explain this movement, the incessant advancing of mankind, guided by its pioneers to a daily more intimate consonance with natural laws and natural truth, is the peaceful task of the historians of De- mocracy. In the deeper studies of the various sciences, bibliography, the knowledge of their respective literature, becomes more and more indis- pensable. " Nosse bonos libros magna pars esteruditionis," was the symbol of one of the Fathers of our modern literary history ; " livres nouveaulx, livres vieulx," is the motto of a well known French bibliophile ; and Goethe, with his usual happy tact, makes Mephisto- pheles, in his Faust, ask the question : " Wer kann was Durames, wer was Kluges denken, Das nicht die Vorwelt schon gedacht ?" XVI That is : who can bring forth any wise or silly thought that past ages had not had before him ? It is therefore not only desirable, but necessary, to be capable of judging the future literary productions by the already existing ones ; and in consequence of the rapid increase of these productions, true bibliographical knowledge is not only the safest insurance against lite- rary depredations and mystifications, and the surest test of originality, but also an actual savings bank for time and money in literary pursuits. Historical sciences especially, being founded on former records only, and depending principally upon a thorough and critical use and knowledge of existing sources, stand more in need than others of the aid of bibliography, as the topographical statistics of literature. The few bibliographical works existing concerning America are almost exclusively devoted to historical literature, in which of course foreigners had always a very great share ; but even those are gene- rally devoted to the historical literature of the whole American Con- tinent, or if, like the works of Mr. O. Rich, they pay particular at- tention to the history and description of the United States, yet they are too inconplete as to the single States of the Union. Still there is no lack of local histories, especially in New England, whose sons may justly be called a " documentary people" (see the able article in the North American Review, vol. xlvi, pp. 475 — 599). There is hardly a town of some extent in New England, the historical events of which have not been recorded in some work, particularly written for that purpose, or in centennial sermons, lectures or notices garnered up in the collections of their historical societies. Nor will it appear less surprising that no State of the Union, not even the youngest, is without some American literary production, partially or totally devoted to its geography or history. Little, however, is known abroad of this part of literature, and often not much more is known of it at home, a fact which may be easily accounted for. For, when we consider, that American activity has found full employment in developing and regulating the wealth of such extensive territories ; when we see how gloriously that mission has been fulfilled, and look at the flourishing towns and cities, and at the constant growth of agriculture, trade and commerce ; when we perceive, how regions, which twenty years ago were only trodden by some Indian trader, or some hardy pioneer of science, are now already encompassed within the limits of well regulated States ; when our admiration is awakened by all what has been done in so short a time for education, XV11 and for divine worship, for a speedy and easy intercourse between the different States by a vast set of canals and railroads ; when we see everywhere libraries and literary societies multiplying, and the never sleeping public press untired in bringing every kind of ready information to the humble cottage of the poorest laborer ; when we take all this together, we can only be astonished, that men, who did so much for their bodily and intellectual welfare, could find sufficient leisure for laying such an ample foundation of national literature, by far the smallest part of which the following repertory will exhibit. A protracted visit to the United States, made for the purpose of becom- ing personally acquainted with the social and political life of Ame- rica, a lively interest in the history and the institutions of this genu- ine home of liberty, fostered for many years, and heightened by gratitude, which every German must feel for the asylum thousands of his compatriots have found here, against oppression at home, joined to a predilection for literary and especially bibliographical studies, induced the writer of the present pages to make a collection of notices of American literature, a part of which digested is pub- lished in the following catalogue. This catalogue, a literary reposi- tory of American local history and geography, is an " exclusively American" one ; being confined to books either published by Ameri- cans at home or abroad, or reprinted in the United States, in which case foreign publications also will find a supplementary notice, but will be marked by asterisks as reprints. The American writings on religious, educational and literary institutions, and on natural history, the State papers and laws of the different States, as well as the bio- graphical works, proved so very numerous, that it was necessary to exclude them for the present, lest this catalogue should increase to too great a size. They will be suitable for special bibliographies, a digest of which, undertaken by men of more profound professional knowledge, will prove as interesting as useful, showing how much American literature has already to offer in those branches. For the literature containing the history and the antiquities of the various Indian tribes, though for the most part less important than abundant, and collected with equal industry and predilection, we also could not find a place in this repository, since it requires an analytical cata- logue, which no one could presume to prepare without having studied the subject more thoroughly, or without extensive travels, which would have been indispensable, in order to become personally acquainted with the most prominent of the Indian tribes. 1* XV 111 Even in the repository which is presented here to the courteous reader, it seemed more becoming to abstain from criticisms, however easy these might appear to be to Europeans who are acquainted with the requisites and better models of historical art. The difference between the history of a democracy and that of other States, as exhibited above in the able speech of Mr. Hale, is so great, that only a residence of several years in this thoroughly practical country, could enable a European traveller, who has generally nearly as much to forget as to learn in the United States, to give an impartial judgment on this matter. The writer has therefore thought it preferable, and upon the whole more useful, to refer the reader to the notices and criticisms of a great part of the productions of American literature, given in the well known and excellent North American Review. Although this repository, like all other bibliographical compilations, past and present, cannot lay claim to an entire completeness, still it is hoped that no standard work, which lies within the plan the writer had proposed to himself, will be found wanting. If, however, such an omission should be detected, the fault can certainly not be said to arise from any want of conscientiousness, and is entitled to greater indul- gence than it would be in similar cases in Europe. For in Europe the gathering of accurate bibliographical notices is an easy and pleasant task, when compared with the trouble and difficulties to be encountered in the same pursuit in this country where the sources of bibliographical instruction, as far as they exist, are scattered here and there ; where the collector, as previously remarked, must be con- stantly on his guard, and can rely only on himself for every accu- rate notice which he may want ; and where, besides, the attempt to supply these notices has but very little of the " spiritual pleasure of a trip from page to page, from book to book," but requires an actual and fatiguing tour in search of literature. It requires indeed a true ; ' bibliophile voyageur." The differences which exist between several parts of the Union, and which have been described so often, and lately so well by Che- valier, give also a different and local tint to their literature, and the individual independence of democracy imparts throughout to the lite- rary productions an individuality, a local independence, and a seclu- sion, which is greatly enhanced by the want of convenient and trust- worthy organs for the forthcoming literature, and by the compara- tively exorbitant expenses connected with the conveyance of single books from the more distant parts of the interior of the country. XIX The same local coloring is to be met with in the libraries and in the antiquarian book-trade, which makes it a mere matter of chance whether one is likely in the Eastern States to be able to obtain some Southern or Western publication or not. Public libraries, when not restricted to particular sciences, can no- where be expected to be very complete in the historical part. Still, a highly commendable tendency to pay particular attention to the historical literature of the Union, has in several of the larger libra- ries led to the happiest results. The libraries of the existing Histori- cal Societies, and especially the rich collections of those at Worcester, Mass., at Boston, and at New York, were more confined to Ameri- can history. With regard to private libraries exclusively devoted to this branch of literature, particular mention is due to the very exten- sive collection of the gentleman in Washington City, to whom this repertory has been gratefully dedicated, and to whose kind and libe- ral promotion of all historical or literary researches more praise is due than words could well express. It is more than probable that an accurate comparison would lead to the result, that from the time of the origin of this republic, more money has been spent in the United States for the formation and supply of libraries, than in any other country in the world ; a branch of American activity and generous patriotism but little known abroad perhaps because even native Americans will, in looking at these li- braries in the spirit of impatient emulation, take as a scale the more voluminous but also far older libraries of Europe. If the ever ac- tive American liberality has not yet been directed to that really pa- triotic design of forming as complete a library as possible of writings concerning the history of the whole American continent, it may be hoped that the daily increasing and widely spreading feeling of the high importance of this object may soon lead to the conception of such a plan. The American Continent, certainly not destined to foster the pre- judices and the torpidity which generally press down, or paralyze any further elevation of the nations of the old world, has in the history of the abortive endeavors of Europe to impart to it her political and social miseries, the most effective preservative against enslaving compliance and degrading want of self-respect. The colonial history of the settlements in America must appear to Americans like the early reminiscences of an independent, self-made man, who, having once been an unloved step-child, was in his youth thrown back on his own resources, by the contempt and the priva- XX tions he experienced, and finds now, upon a retrospect of his past struggles, the best encouragement for the maintenance of his indepen- dence, and the surest guarantee against backslidings. The history of their own country, which was the first to throw off the yoke of Europe, must fill Americans with a just pride and a high sense of the real vocation of the western hemisphere ; a vocation which only can be fulfilled by following strictly the policy so clearly pointed out by the best and greatest of the Sons of America, both by precept and example, — the policy of keeping entirely independent of European politics, neither interfering with their affairs, nor allowing them to interfere in any way with those of the United States. The United States, being the first of the republics of America, must have an incontestible interest in the fate of a continent, over which they are to spread the blessings of liberty ; and to them it would prove, therefore, a highly creditable and patriotic undertaking, to collect in a particular library all the notices and facts recorded in the histori- cal literature of this continent. They should not allow foreigners to anticipate them in such an undertaking, which will prove in future times of still higher importance as well as interest, than at present. The old objections, that there was no taste for literary pursuits of that kind in the United States, that hands would prove a better sup- port of true democracy than papers, and that facts are wanted, not books, are now antiquated, and can no longer be taken as the true principle of a nation which has done already so much for its intel- lectual interests. The spirit of genuine national and political economy, assisted by the blessings of a free constitution, has long shown to the citizens of the United States what position is due to material as well as to in- tellectual productions and interests ; and a nation, which soon became convinced that it is given to intellectual poweraloneto reconcile the differences which in Europe have become so threatening under a state of pauperism, and which can no longer be peaceably endured by the side of the monopolies of the higher classes, will certainly be dis- posed to extend protection to every scientific undertaking which tends to throw a greater light upon the history of their happy country, and to renew the memory of the noble deeds of their forefathers. May the following repertory, as far as possible, facilitate the foundation of such an American Historical Library ; and may it prove useful to further researches into the history of a country, which every one must love, who knows how to understand it !
