Francesco Berlinghieri, a Florentine, contrihuted greatly to the study of (jeo;;raphy by this popular work in Italian verse. It bears no date, but must have been published about the same time as the Roman Ptolemy of 1478, as the Duke of Urbino, to whom it is dedicated, died in 1482. Indeed it is more than probable that the work of Berlinghieri is entitled to claim prece- dence before the Ptolemy (as the first collection of Maps printed from copper- plates), since the two sets of engravings are very much alike, but the Roman book exhibits a very superior technical finish which evinces the improvement of a later hand. In some respects the Berlinghieri approximates nearer to geographical correctness. The added leaf of Register is mounted to the size of the book in the first of these two copies. 28114 1478 Ptolemy.

The letter in which it occurs is dated 12 August. 1507 ; consequently, there existed at that date a printed map showing the discoveries of Vespucci in the New World, as far as 10 degrees south latitude. As it is quite certain that Ruysch's map was not printed till late in 1507 or the beginning of 1508, at Rome; as the 2766 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. S. Die map, although designed in 1507, was not finished till 1513; and as, moreover, neither of them corresponds to the mention of the 10 degi'ees south latitude, we must conclude that a map at present unknown was printed before 1507, exhibiting the new discoveries in the west. 1507 Cosmographise Introductio — see under Vespucci in section Narratives of Voyagers. 28123 1508 PTOLEMyEI Geographia, latine reddita, correcta a Marco Beneventano et Joanne Costa, folio, the Maps only, that of Livonia wanting, water-stained, old calf, £15.

Among the additional ones is the celebrated map of Johan Euysch. entitled " Universalior Cogniti Orbis Tabula ex recentibus confecta observationibus." This is the first engraved map i>n which an v part of THE TKCE America was shown. Greenland (hereattached to the North-East of A.«ia) is in this map drawn for the first time separated from Europe. A little below Greenland there is a peninsula marked "Terra Nova," which repre- sents perhaps the results of Cabot's voyages. Below this appear Cuba (only half of which is drawn), Spagnola and the other islands. Beneath these again is drawn the nonh-east corner of South America, entitled "Terra sancte crucis sive Mundus novus." The present is the issue with the '-Plisacus Sinus " marked upon the east coast of Asia. 28124 1511 CLAUDIl PTHOLEMAEI Alexandrini Liber Geo- grapliise cum tabulis et universal! figura et cum additions locorum quae a recentioribus reperta sunt, diligenti cura [Bernardi SrLVAKi Eboliensis] emendatus et impressus, roy. folio, title printed in red, 92 leaves, of which the last 30 contain 28 large ivoodcut -maps, with the names printed in red and black upon them, hf. hd. £8. 8s Venetiis, J.

It is three years later than the Roman edition with Ruysch's map which contained the first published delineation of America (South America, Cuba and the islands). The map of the world, which is in the above volume, represents the New World in an extremely curious way. Brazil, a large tract, is called Terra Santse Crucis, and the cartographer evinces acquaintance with the results of Columbus' third voyage, and Vespucci's second and third voyages. The contmuiiy is broken by the margin in conse- quence of the peculiar plan of the map, so that Cuba and Hispaniola appear next above near their proper places ; and far beyond them, at the same deyree of latitude as Ireland, an unfinished shore bearing the words "Regalis Domus," indicates the northern continent, while Labrador (Terra Laboratorus) is represented as an island off the coast. This is the first graphic kecord of the discoveries (in 16U0) of Corte Real. Greenland (Engronelat) is drawn as a peninsula of north-west Europe. Coming nearer home, it is remarkable that in this book, Scotland is properly drawn for the first time as forming a northern extension of England. It is also remarkable for the manner in which the names are printed on the maps, this having been done by types after the woodcut had been worked off. This is the first instance in which such a method of operation was ever adopted. 28127 1513 PTOLEMEI (Claudii) . . .

Argentine, Joannes Schott, 1513 The most remarkable of the early Ptolemies in its geographical importance. It contains two maps which were here j)rinted for the first time, and which GEOGRAPHY: MODERN MAPS. 2757 may undoubtedly be held to represent the cartographical labours of Amerigo Vespucci. One of them is the Bydrographia (or " Hyiirographie Portugaise" as it is often called), which forms the first of the supplementary maps ; the other is ihe Tabula Terre nove, which is the second of that series, and which might be thought to contain the New-World portion of the Hydrographia engraved on a larger scale and more detailed, but it is really quite a different map. Only one map is alluded to in ihe address Ad Lectorein which precedes those supplementary maps, and it is said to have been presented to the editors more than six years earlier, by Rene Dnke of Lorraine, when they had commenced to work on the publication of Ptolemy. The histoiy of the edition is prnbaMy to be explained thus. On the publication of Vespucci's four voyages early in 1.505. a copy with the dedication altered so as to suit the recipient, was sent to King Rene, along with two manuscript maps prepared apparently by Vespucci's hand. He delivered the book and the maps to the St. Di4 College, and thev produced the Cosmographia of 1507 as a translaiion of the Italian text. The maps were reserved to be used for an edition of Ptolemy then projected, and the work of engraving was probably begun at once, but difficulties arose with regard to the text when they began to edit the Latin translation of Htolemy. Finding it necessary to collate it with a Greek text, Philesius was sent to Italy. Pico di Mirandola furnished him with a Greek MS. for the use of the editors, and sent a highly complimentary letter, which is printed at the beginning of the volume, bearing date 1508. The labour must have proved enormous and discouraged the editors, for they say in the Ad Lectorem that it had gone to sleep six years before in the rocks of the Vosges, and was now at last roused inio public ition in Strassburg. The words concerning the procurement and the authorship of the map are as follows : — " Charta aufem marina quam Hydrographiam vocant per Adniiralcm quondam serenissi. Portugalie regis Kerdinandi ceteros denique lustratores verissimis peragrationibus lustrata, ministerio Renati, diim vixit, nunc ])ie mortui, Ducis illustriss. Lotharingie liberalius prelographati )ni tradita est." The blunder either in the name of the king or that of the country has led to various interpretations, and the Admiral referred to is generally supposed to mean Columbus, but it is more probable that the phrase refers to Vesiaicci, wl.o, in 1504, was a sea-captain m the Portuguese service. It is a trifling matter, but one of some .'ignificance for the deterniinaiion of this disputed point, that in the delineation of Spain, there is no town or port marked except Lisbon. The first map or Hydrographia is a general view of the world from Cathay on tlie right hand to the New World on the left. The American portiim con^ists of the coa^t of South America from the Gulf of Venezuela to the port of Cananea (12 degrees North to 25 degrees South latitude — it is marked 15 N.L. to 35 S.L). with the islands of Cuba and S. Domingo. There are only a few inscriptions, seven in all ; and there is nothing further, except the outlines of a small portion of derached coast lying opposite Ireland, in the mid-sea, between 50 and 62 degrees N.L. This is evidently intended to represent the discoveries of Corte Real. — The second map is the Tabula Terre Nove above mentioned. It omits entirely the Corte-real coast which appears in the Hydrographia, but extends in S. America to the same degree of S.L. as that map. It is lull of names along the sea coast from Cabo del Mar Usiano on the north, to about 25 (marked 35) degrees of south latitude, where it ends with Rio Cananor (Cananea Bay), and seems to corre- spond exactly with the extent claimed by Vespucci as having been explored in his four voyages (including also an evidence that Cabral's discovery was included). There can be little doubt, notwithstanding the absence ot the peninsula of Yucatan (which proves that during the coasting voyaue described by Vespucci as his first, the usual hydrographic observations were frequently preteriiiiited) that we have in the northern portion a delineation of the Gulf of Mexico, the coast and point of FloriHa, and the coast of the Eastern United States as far as Cape Hatteras. As for the degrees of latitude they are of course monstrously exaggerated. The equator is placed about 5 degrees north of its true level both in America and in Africa ; and as the design extends northward, the error diminishes on the eastern side of the Atlantic bnt increases on the western. Cuba is placed 10 degrees north of it« true 2758 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. . liititude, and the Cabo del Mar Usiano (Cape Hattex-as) is some 19 degrees above its proper place. This map— prepared for the engraver by Martinus Waldseemiiller (Hyla- comylusi — bears the inscription " Hue terra cum adiacentibus insnlis inventa est per Columbum .Jaiuiensem ex mandato Regis Castelle," which appeared here for the first time, and was frequently repeated on later maps. Not only may the Ptolemy of 1.513 be said to cfmtain the Editio Princeps of the Admiral's map, but it would even be correct to describe it as (excluding its I'eissue in Schott's second edition of 1.520) the only edition of that map, since all the later reproduction.s, except of course modern facsimiles, follow the Ptolemy of 1522. Humboldt has put forward an opinion that Waldseemiiller executed these maps, and also those which appeared in the Ptolemy of 1522 and 1525. A faithful comparison will preclude all supposi- tion that the same hand could have been employed in both ; for : Ithough the maps of 1522 and 1525, published by Laurentius Frisius, are ostensibly close reproductions of those of 1513, yet the difference between them is scientifi- cally and critically very great. It can at once be seen that the original maps are valuable and authentic documents, while the latter ones are careless and inexact imitations, not only without any attempt to improve upon the earlier labour, but even omitting some of the names because they were too numerous or not sufficiently clear ; blurring, rouu ling, and distorting the coast-outlines. On the fly-leaf is pasted an inscription in Latin (dated Sept. 1, 1540), to the effect that this book was given by John Faber, Bishop of Vienna, to the students of the College of St. Nicholas. 28128 1513 Major (R.

Noriberg.. 1515 The Luculentissima Descriptio is the second geographical work in which the name of America was used to designate the N'5w World. (The first was the Cosmographia, which see post in the section " Narratives of Voyagers " Vespdcci.) In some respects the early ideas of Schoner were superior to the later. In 1515 he held that "America sive Amerigen novus niundus" was the " quarta orbis pars" and an " insula niiriB magniiudinis." He goes on to say that " Parias insula " is not a portion of the preceding island, but a special great portion of the ^1e^y fourth part of the world. This implies the recognition of a new and distinct continent, which he rejects in the late Opusculum. We know that by Parias is not meant the gulf and coast of Paria, in South America, which Columbus visited in 1499, but the Lariab of Vespucci (mis- written or misprinted Pariasin the Cosniographioe Introductio oi 1507), which was probably in Guatemala ; and therefore, having regard to the article "Brasilife regio," a little further on, we may conclude that Schoner's idea was that of a new continent, consisting of three great islands, lying fx'om north- west to south-east, Lariab or Parias being the noribernmost, and correspond- ing to North America; America sive Amerigen lying in the middle and corresponding to Yucatan, Central America, Nicaragua; Brasilia lying south-east, and corresponding to South America. In his description of the minor islands of the New World, we find Spagnolla. Isabella, etc., and the Madeiras. He sums up his chapter by saying. Thus the world is known as being of four parts ; the first three parts are continents, that is, terra firma, and the fourth an iiland, since on every side it is observed to be surrounded by the sea. The word insula, an island, may be taken to mean insular in a general sense, but the statement that the insularity was proven, in conjunction with the assertion that " modica est distantia ah hac BrasiliaB regione ad Mallaquam ubi S. Thomas apostolus martyrio coronatus," is a singular circumstance in a book which preceded Magellan's voyage by some years. GEOGRAPHY: MODERN MAPS. 27o9 28130 1520 SOLIXUS. Joannis Camertis in C.

Apianus was the designer of the map which appeared in the celebrated work of Gamers upon Solinus in 1520, and was consequently the first promoter of the name America in the long series of maps issued with geographical treatises. The Cosmographicus Liber has two small maps, on pages 2 and 63, bearing the delineation and title of America, and the fourth chapter of the second part is an article devoted entirely to America and Vespucci, ignoiiug the name of Columbus. In the seventeenth chapter, " America " is mentioned as an island along with Sicilv, Java, and Rhodes. 28135 1525 CLAUDII PTOLEMAEI Geographicse Enarrationis libri octo Bilibaldo Pirckeymhero interprete, (ace.) annotationes J. de Regio Monte in errores commissos a Jacobo Angelo in translatione sua, folio, curious initials ivith borders, 50 large woodcut maps, original calf, slightly stained and wormed, £6. 10s Argentoragi (sic) J.

The last sheet is the famous map s^i^ned by L. F. (Laurentius Frisius) dated 1.5'22, and entitled '' Orbis ttpus universalis," which bears the name *' America." This map is not a new one, but simply a reproduction of one in the Ptolemy of lol3, with the name America added. The discovery of Columbus is described on the sheet numbered 28, and the two inner pages of that sheet contain a Map of America, or rather of the Western Ocean and Terra Nova, with the Islands. Again, the last map but one. which represents Gronlandia et Russia, is really a map of the Eastern Hemisphere, but also contains por- tions of the American coasts.

It also exhibits the '' Ocean Occidental " with the Azores, the Madeiras, and the Canary Islands. The date of the MS. is fixed by the cross which appears on both the if- lands of Rhodes and Malta, by which it must be c< ncluded that the Knights had but lately removed to the latter island ; and by the cross also marked on the isle of Scio, which shows that its surrender by the Venetians to the Turks, in 1540, had not yet taken place. The double-headed eagle which surmounts the crown over the Spanish arms shows that Charles V. was still on the Imperial throne. Special prominence is given to the French royal escutcheon, and this with the one French inscription, ''L'Ocean Occidental," makes it appear that the author was a subject of Francis I., although the written part of the maps is almost entirely Italian, 28142 APIANI (Petri) Universalior cogniti Orbis Tabula, a large Map, 21| inches by 15^, mounted on linen, unique, £40. (Ingolstadii) 1530 This large chart was produced by Apianus at his private-press in Ingolstadt. It exhibits the peculiariiy of a heart-shaped map of the world before the appearance ot the well-known map of Oronce Fine, hitherto supposed to have been the first of the kind. The French caitographer, though only one year later than Apiani, was able to fill his map with a number of GEOGRAPHY: MODERN MAPS. 2761 useful names from the reports of recent discoverr, but his theory of the identity between China and the lands lying north-west of Florida vitiated all his work ; while Apianns had evidently learned from Vespucci to abandon the old hallucinaticjn of Columbus. This lar^e and elaborate world-map was prepared by Apianus as an improvement on that which appeared in the Solinus of 1520. It is largely based on the discovery of Vespucci, and in the upper margin, there are two smaller world-maps exhibiting comparatively the extent of the globe according to the " t (bservatio Ptolem." and the " Observatio Vespu." In the large map itself, the coasts of Greenland coalesce with those of Labrador, and the Gulf of St. Lawrence is plainly indicated. South of the gulf, the northern limit ot the contmental shore reaches to about 38 degrees N.L. (marked 40), indicating the north-westwardly recession of the coast from the point of C. Hatteras towards Chesapeake Bay. The line of land is continued below along the shores of Carolina, Georgia, Florida, round Cape Sable, with the entire coast of the Mexican Gulf, Mexico, Yucatan, Homiuras, Central America, Venezuela, Guiana, Brazil, till it fades into an indistinct and unfinished outlme at about 45 dejirees S L. The island of Cuba is marked Isabella, while the land of Central America bears the name of " Terra de Cuba." From the Gulf of Maracaibo to that of Paria, the coast is marked with the words, " lUi 8ut sub Carolo Rom. Jmperatore." From the mouth of the Amazon, that is from about 5 degrees S.L., the coast line proceeds southwardly with but nncertam resemblance to the reality. We find the words " Terra Nova " and ''Hie reperiuntur P*ittaci rubri," and "Bri>ilici sive Paragalli," this last inscription appearing opposite tUe embouchure of a river which is plainly meant for Kio Janeiro, and falls into the ocean at 2.3 degrees S.L. At 30 degrees S.L. the line is broken by a very broad strait, gulf, or river-month, which evidently represents the mouth of La Plata. Below it the omline runs a considerable distance further to the south, but without any distinctness, broken off aitosrether at 46 S.L. The map is rledica'ed to Leonardus ab Fck and bears his arms. 28143 1533 SCHONERI ( loannis ) Carolostadii Opvscvlvm Geo- graphicrra ex diversorvm libris ac cartis . . . collectnm, small 4to. woodcuts of globes, velhim, £7. lOs {Norih. 1533) An opuscule of no slight interest to the American collector. It is the first expression in print of an idea that has led to long and bitter contro- versy- nan^ely, that Vespucci himself bestowed the name of America upon the New World. Otherwise it is more curious than valuable, as for instance, when he discusses the idea of the revolution of the earth round the sun, and dismisses it as erroneous. His ideas concerning the New World had under- gone some change from the time when he wrote ihs Lucule-ntissima Descriptio. He describes the land found by Vespucci as the continent of Upper India, citing the voyage of Magellan as a proof ; and then proceeds to mention the Bachalaos, Florida, Mexico, Darien, Uraba, and Canibalia as portion of it. The islands of_ the Moluccas lay on the further side of it, the islands of Yucatan, Jamaica, Hispaniola, and Cuba on the hither side ; while he chides Columbus and Vespucci for having considered the mainland they discovered to be an island. His last chapter is on Brasilia.

This paragraph is alluded to by Ebert, Hrunet, Harrisse, and others, but all of them make the same mistake with regard to its position in the book. It appears on the map of Palestine in the second series, and the fault lay in accusing the " Biblici libri"' of " injuria aut jactantia pura ;" but, of course, Servetus was not the author of the passage, having merely repiinted it from the editions of 152^; and 1.52.'). Indeed the labours of Servetus were not very heavy ; he did but reprint those editions, with a few additions, a few omi-isions, and a total substitution of text only in the desciiptions of France, Spain, (iermany, and Italy. Here, Servetus expresses freely his (»wn opinions and prejudices, which differ extremely from those of his prededessor. With regard to Germany, he quotes " producit Hungaria boves, Bavaria sues, Franconia cepas rapas et glycerhisiam, Suevia mereirices, Boemia hereticos, Bavaria iterum fures, Helvetia carnifices bubsequas, Westialia fallaces, tota denique Germania ac totus septemirio gulones et potatores." To the identical account of Columbus which appeared in the editions of 1522 and 152.5, Servetus has appended a few remarkable words concerning the absurdity of putting the claims of Americus in precedence to those of the real discoverer.

Miinster, the famous cosmographer, edited it, re-designing the maps, according to the lights of fresh discovery, and thenceforward each new edition has followed or improved upon his work. In the first Map — Typus Universalis — the continent of America is divided into three parts: Francisca (Canada); Terra Florida, with Temistitan (Mexico) which is broken off from Florida by the circimi- ference line of the circle, and consequently appears on the extreme right in the Asiatic half of the globe ; and America seu insula Brasilii {South America.) Maps 2-28 contain the series of Ptolemy's ancient maps, as designed by Miinster. Then follow the twenty maps of the modern world, of which the seventeenth contains the Novus Orbis, that is, North and South America, extending from Labrador to Tierra del Fuego. Naturally great portion of the outline is conjectural, and there are no details. The general representation of the New World is one of the earliest printfd maps in which the entire continent appears, with the western outlines of the Pacific coast of S. America in fairly accurate design. 28156 PiOLEMiEi Geograpbia, maps, Basil. 1540 — SOLINI Polybistor, Rerum toto Orbe Memorabilium Thesaurus locupletissimus, huic Pomponii Melee de Situ Orbis libros tres adjunximus, maps, Basil. 1538 ; together 2 vols, in 1, sm. folio, old calf, £10. 1538-40 The Solinus contains besides a small woodcut map of Italy in the text, two large maps, viz : Typus Greece; and another, representing Asia, with the North-East of Africa.

It is interesting as showing the mouth of the Spirito Santo (the Mi^sissippi) and the lands aronnd the River and Gulf of St. Laurence. In the latter case Newfoundland has not yet become an island, the straits of Belle-isle being still unknown, and only a deep inlet divides it from Labrador. The River Saguenay is shown at its entry into the Sr. Laui'ence, which is a remarkable feature in so early a map. 28159 1545 ATLAS, or PORTOLANO, of the whole world as known about the year 1545-48 (perhaps by BATTISTA AGNESE), sm. folio, Manuscript on Vellum, consistijig of 2^ leaves of Maps executed in colours, heightened loith gold, every page surrounded hy an arabesque harder in gold, red morocco extra, gilt edges, hy Petit, £50. (? Venice ahout 1550) This is a Hydrographic Atlas of the World, of extreme importance to American students, as it is perhaps the only set of maps (besides the celebrated Eibero MS. chart of 1527), showing, by what is absolute proof, that the explorations of Estevam Gomez are depicted from original designs. On the second last map we find two inscriptions which are decisive on the point. On one of the Mauritius islands there are the words " i. discubrio Esteua Comes," and on the American continent, in the region which afterwards became Pennsylvania, there is a similar record, " tera che discobrio Stevan Comes." (This second inscription is repeated in the same locality on the last map.) Now, there is very little known about Estevtin Gomes beyond the facts that he stai'ted with Magellan as pilot, joined the Spanish mutineers against his leader, and returned to Spain in the ship San Antonio which deserted the Victoria, just as it was about to enter the famous strait ; and that afterwards in 1525 he was sent to explore the coasts north of Florida. In the two inscriptions above quoted, one referring to a place ofE the east of Africa, and the year 1505 or 1506, the other relating to the region of the United States and the year 1525 or 1526, we find the discoveries of Gomes recorded on a single map, which is pi'obably unique in this respect. We may therefore draw^ the safe conclusion that Gomes's own charts were in the hands of GEOGRAPHY: MODERN MAPS. 2765 the chartographer. The date of the lattei''s work is evident from the nature of the maps ; Japan is still the old island of Marco Polo, Yucatan is still an island, and the -svestern coast line of South America is a blank from about the region of Lima to the vicinity of Magellan's Straits. We can have no doubt therefore that the Atlas was compiled about 1545, or between 1545 and 1550. California is delineated as a peninsula with the " Mare Vermiglio " between it and the mainland. BotTi the American coasts are thickly studded with names, and the eastern outline of North America is given with tolei'able accuracy, all the way from Mexico to Labrador, marking the Rio del Spirito Santo (Mississippi) and the Gulf of St. Laurence (v. hich is without a name). "Terra di Bacalaos " is marked, not on Newfoundland, but on Labrador. One of the islands in that gulf is marked " I. de la Fortuna." The names on the coast between the point of Florida and " Tera de Bertoni " are " Aguarda ; Tera di Licenciados ; Aillon ; Bio di S. Zuan ; C. di S.Maria; vila di Christoval ; vila di S.Antoni; n. verde ; rio di hona mad^e ; S. Ziiane Batista ; Montanas ; C di mucesilas (?); tera che discohrio Stevan Comes ; C. diloverta (?)."

The plans of Venice and Genoa, which are both given in small pictures, surmounted by the flags of the two republics, in their places on the map of Italy, lead us to infer that a man connected with both cities was ■ the chartographer.

Even his errors have significance, and deserve investigation. The map of South America is the first which contains anything like a correct drawing of the whole coast of that continent, and which gives the names of the cities of Cuzco and Quito, with the full length of the Amazon from its mouth to its sources south of Quito. It is true that the relative positions of the towns are incorrect, and that Quito and the Amazon sources lie one at 26 and the other at 35 degrees S. L., but the fact that they are included with many names of places that had not been given before, give this work a marked position in the Ptolemy series. 28162 Gemma Phrysius de Principiis Astronomiae at Cosmographise : deque nsu Globi, de Orbis divisione, et insnlis, rebusque rniper inventis, etc. Paris. 1549 — Robertus, Episcopus Abrincatensis, Antidotum ad postulata de [interim:], Lugd. 1548 — Erasmi Roterdami (Des.)

The map is similar in projection to that used by Vadianus, but there are differences in detail. It is not exactly as it was drawn by Vopelius ; at least, in a printed notice at ilie bottom of the map Girava states that he had used Vopelius's work as the basis of his own. 28175 1561 Yarrerii (Gasp.)

The map of China is dated 1584, and the text on the back of it contains two Chinese words in the Chinese character; 80 that this Atlas is really the first European book in which Chinese Chakacters APPEAREn, being one year earlier than the work on China pub- lished by Gonzalez de Mendoza, at Rome, in 1585, to which the priority has hitherto been attributed. In the text to the map of Valentia, there is a singular statement made, which is wholly altered in the later editions. It is ihis : " Ager hnjus urbis (Valentice) ubique a Mauris colitur . . . Avorumqne prosa- piam lingua Arabica et religione Mahumetana palam et vulgo profitentur in hunc usque diem ; conniventibus Rege et Inquisitione."

Of the original Map I can only trace the existence of four copies, one of which is to be seen in the Grenville copy of Hakluyt, 3 vols. It is by far the finest Chartographical labour which appeared from the epoch of the discovery of America down to the time of D'Anville — that is for more than two hundred years. Hakluyt intended to insert this map (which must have been already undertaken by Mollineux) in the work published in 1589, but it was not of course ready, and some copies were sent out with a substituted engraving, which is called in the preface " one of the best generall mappes of the world." The latter map was simply a re-engraving from the latest mappemonde of Ortelius (1588); and identical with the one which was regu- larly published in the English edition of Linschoten's Travels; having therefore no original value or interest. The engraver of the great Map, or — as Hakluyt calls it — Terrestrial Globe, was "Mr. Emmeric Mollineux of Lambeth, a rare gentleman in his profession, heing therein for divers years greatly supported by the purse and liberality of the worshipful merchant, Mr. William Sanderson." Every geographical discovery down to the year 1598 appears recorded in his map, which, after ten years' labour, was perhaps not quite ready even for insertion in most of the copies of the 1598 edition. 28196 1603 [JOHNSON (Robert)] Historicall Description of the most famous kingdomes and Commonweales in the Worlde, translated into English, with an Addition of the Relation of Saxony, Geneua, Hungary and Spaine, small 4to. title mended, brown morocco extra, £2. 2s ; or, fine copy in old hf. russia, £S. 3s John Jaggard, 1603 28197 1605 Ptolem^i Geographise Libri VIII Grseco-Latini, Latine primum recogniti et emendati, cum tabulis geographicis ad mentem auctoris restitutis per Gerardum Mercatorem : jam vero ad Grseca et Latina exemplaria a Peti-o Montano recogniti, folio, 28 maps, coloured, small hole in title, fine clean copy, calf neat, £4, Amsterodami, J.

If the engraving could have been done in time, the sheet would have taken its place with the rest, impressed opposite the text to Virginia, and a rarity would have been lost to the American collector. However, the publishers filled up the blank with a duplicate of the New iSpain Map, this being mentioned in the Errata with a statement that a correct map of New England was then being prepared in America, which would be published on its arrival in England. A change of owners took place two years afterwards, and the frontispiece was re-engraved, having Sparke's name alone, with 'Second Edytion' added, and the date changed. In some of these copies the new Map was inserted. The stock thus treated was however very small, as the existence of this valuable piece of Map-making is not mentioned in any of the books of reference where one might expect to find it. 28211 1638 ROBERTS (L.)

Fiorenza, 1661 Tlie Arcano comprises Portolani and Charts by English and other pilots, which were never published elsewhere ; and to American collectors it should ])rove of the highest interest. The maps which depict Virginia, New Netherlands, anil New England, are amongst tlic most important of these : they are fuller and upon a larger scale than, while at the same time they are totally dislinci from, those of Laet, Janssou, Mercator, Visscher, the lieschry- GEOGKAPHY : MODERN WORKS. 2778 ving of 1651, Van Looii, tmd Douckers. It is very strange, upon this account, that the Arcano is omitted by Asher in his Bibliogra'phical Essay, and that the attention of so painstaking a student should not have been drawn to Dudley's work. The above second edition was prepared from the author's corrected copy of the ttrst (1646) ; and as he died in 1639, his maps of those parts of America must be considered to take precedence of all those mentioned by Asher, except the 1630 edition of Laet. In fact, it is uncertain whether they might not claim priority even over Laet ; for the enyraver Lncini mentions that he himself had been kept secluded in an obscure village of Tuscany for twelve years, working incessantly at the plates. Asher's Essay, so elaborate in its description of the various early maps and charts, their variations, and their mutual dependence or independence, becomes very defective through its omission of the Arcano. Again the large scale of the maps of California and Mew Albion, and the number of names which crowd the coast-line below and above Cape Mendocino, with the marginal observations upon the errors of latitude made by previous writers, show conclusively the scientific character and importance of Dudley's work. A similar remark will apply to the delineations of the newly-discovered lands of Australia, and the northern coasts of New Holland (which he mistakenly calls Mew Guinea, while leaving to that island its other name Papua). One of the i'ortolans is by Abraham Kendal, the master of Dudley's flag-ship, when the latter (just before Kaleigh made his similar attempt) fitted out an expedition in 1594-95 to explore the land of Eldorado ; during which he visited Trinidad and some other islands, Guyana, the issues of the Orinoco, etc. He took some useful notes, made lists of native words, thrashed some Spanish ships, and escaped some great dangers in this expedition, a daring one for a young man of 21 — but returned without booty. The numerous Vocabularies of savage languages which the Arcano contains are of consider- able interest. Abraham Kendal, whose name is unknown to the book-makers, died at Portobello, in Central America, in 1597, in Drake's service, leaving behind him the plans and papers of which Dudley made good use. 28213 1642 MARIS CARNEIRO ( Antonio de ) Regimento de PiLOTOS e Roteiro das Navegacoens da India Oriental agora novamente emendado y acresentado c6 o roteiro da costa de Sofala ate Moba^a & com os Portos, & Barras do Cabo de Pinisterra ate o estreito de Gibaltar (sic) com suas derrotas, sondas, & demoiistra9oens, sm. 4to. fourth edition, 11 folding charts, a few leaves cropped, vellum, vert RARE,/rom the SundeV' la7id library, £5.

Amst. 1661 A very valuable work, unmentioned by Asher in his excellent Biblio- graphy of the Atlases and Maps relating to the New Netherlands, although its North American charts are different from the Atlases and Charts examined by him. It is unquestionably the best Atlas representing the coasts of the now United States, published up to that time, and proves that the Brothers Van Loon were accurate and painstaking geographers. Some of the maps are of course reproductions from the great Atlases of Blaeu, Laet, and Jansson, and the name of the latter appears occasionally, but the differences which make the book important are to be found in the delineations of regions which were daily becoming better known, such as the European colonies in North America. This Atlas seems to be the original, or earliest existing form of a series of Dutch maps mentioned by Asher, to which belongs even the Chartbook of Pieter Goos. His statement that Goos's maps were different from and superior to all anterior works of the kind, sufiices to fix the value of the Atlas of Van Loon. 28220 1663 LINSCHOOTEN (Jan Huygen van) Beschryvinge van verscheyde Landen, gelegen onder Africa en America ....

He was also the companion of Captain Sharp, in his voyage for the discoveiy of a New Passage into the South Sea (1679-81), and the draughts in the above volume are partly the results of his personal observation. Tlie ingenious Kingrose was killed February, 1686, by the Spaniards whilst the Buccaneers, commanded by Captain Swan, were carelessly removing their booty from Santa Fecaque, a Spanish-American town on the Pacific Coast which they had taken. 28228 Happelii groste Denkwiirdigkeiten der Welt oder so genannte Relationes Curiosfe, 5 vols, stout sm. 4to. with some hundreds of curious plates, hf. morocco, 25s Hamburg, 1683-91 A very curious and entertaining set of books, containing a rich collection of information concerning all partsofthe world.illustrated with plates and portraits. 28229 MALLET (A.

Hill, whose autograph letter dated 3rd Dec. 1711, respecting the work, is prefixed. In that letter the book is thus described : " There is a large laborious ornamentall guilt booke of mine with, a redd cover in your OflBce att Broadstreete, called the South Sea Waggoner, full of curious Mapps and Platts of ye South Seas, being ye long expei'ience of ye FAMOUS BucKANERE Capt. Barth. Sharpe and of an antient French Captain that hee tooke with his Booke, Mapps and Papers, who used those seas 70 yeares, being all in the said Booke composed and depicted by one Captain William Hack deceased, of whom I about 18 years ago purchased the said booke and paid him £70 for ye same &c." Captain Hack seems to have been outwitb Captain Sharpe; and interesting facts concerning the cruises of Sharpe and others are written here and there on the margins of the charts, by which the work known as the History of the Buccaneers may be valuably illustrated and supplemented. Hack published in 1699 a collection of Voyages, which was incorporated in the later editions of the History of the Buccaneers, but the maps in the above volume were never published. 28235 Gordon (Pat.)

It was executed at the expense of the British Government for the use of the British Navy, and no expense appears to have been spared in the execution, in order to render it a monument worthy of the nation." The work is divided as follows : Vol. I, Sea coast of Nova Scotia ; Vol. II, pt. 1, Charts of the coast and haibours in the gulf and river of St. Lawrence ; pt. 2, Charts of the c">ast and harbours of New England ; pt. 3, Charts of several harbours and divers parts of the coast of North America, from New York south-westwards to the Gulf of Mexico. Vol. I is, according to the list of contents, perfect : Vol. II. contains no list of contents, and so cannot be warranted complete.

Another similar edition, in 4 vols, folio, with portraits, was brought out at Antwerp, in 1728, one year previously, in haste to forestall the work which Barcia had in hand, but of course it is an inferior production, disfigured ■with faults, and omitting the fourteen maps which are unavoidably necessaiy for the understanding of the descripcion. It contains also so-called portraits of the Incas of Peru, which are merely copies of De Bry's fictitious engrav- ings, while Barcia's edition gives the genuine designs which Herrera himself had used after the native pictures. 28320 Novus Orbis, metaphraste C.

The fact is, that Barcia makes nowhere any remark prejudicial to the above publication of 1622, which certainly contains a faithful translation of the descripcion of Herrera, and an equally faithful reproduction of the fourteen authentic maps. Barcia's remark had reference only to the Amsterdam edition of 1721. The volume is highly valuable as containing the first edition of the genuine Voyage of Le Maire (also issued in Latin and Dutch in the HISTORY OF NAVIGATION AND DISCOVERY. 2785 same year) as distinguished from that which had been, through the Dutch India Company's jealousy of Le Maii-e, published by Blaeu under the name of Cornelius Schouten, who had commanded one of Le Maire's vessels. It concludes with the Spanish and English voyages to Magellan's Straits and the descriptions of America given by Ordonez de Cevallos and Bertius. The portrait of Le Maire is not mentioned by Brunet, Graesse, Leclerc, or in the " Nuggets," and I find no record of any copy containing it. The last four pages of the first Part contain a Vocabulary of the language of the Solomon Isles. 28323 Herrera.

It is a great histoi'ical work, indispensable to tlie student of Spanish affairs in America after the conquest, notwith- standing the charges made by Bernal Diaz against Gomara of occasional inaccuracy. The dedication to Charles V begins with these remarkable words : " The greatest event which has happened since the creation of the world (leaving aside the incarnation and death of Him who created it) is the discovery of the Indies." Gomara prefixes a curious address to intending translators, warning them to be accurate and to measure the full significance of the pregnant Spanish phrases, also to pay special attention to proper names. He further declares that he is writing the book in Latin, so that the translators may take no trouble in that language. His Latin version has never appeared. The two woodcut leaves preceding the text, containing maps, one of the western and the other op the eastern Hemisphere, seem to have survived only in these two COPIES, yet the book is imperfect without them ; and the author in his address "a los Impresores," by whom he meant future reprinters of his work, begged them to omit nothing which he had taken care to insert in this original edition, maiormente las tahlas de la tierra. It was this warning which induced Bellero in Antwerp to issue a small Traga dela Tierra with his edition of 1554, but that is also a rare map now. The difference between Bellero's map and Gomara's proves that the Spanish Govern- ment had effectually suppressed the latter, and that the Antwerp publisher was obliged to have a new design prepared, which is in some respects decidedly inferior to the original in geographical accuracy. The Chronica del Peru {First Edition) of Cie^a de Leon is also extremely rare. During the last thirty years I have only met with one other copy, and that an imperfect one. The translator of this work for the Hakluyt Society says in his preface, that of this edition Lord Stewart de Rothsay's copy was the only one known to him.

Bustamante when he had in his hands the MS. from which he printed the book, supposed it to be an original work by Chimalpain, but afterwards discovered that this Mexican, who flourished at the beginning of tlie seventeenth century, had only based his history (in Mexican) on Gomara, whicii accounted for the resemblance between it and the transcript of the Spanish original which had fallen into Bustamante's hands.

Henry Bynneman (1578) The name of Lopez de Gomara is nowhere mentioned by the worthy Mr. Nicholas, whose own name is signed in full at the end of the Epistle Dedicatory. This first edition is very rare, most American collectors having to be satisfied with the second edition of 1596, which is the one described by Collier in his " Bibliographical Account." The latter writer en-s in stating that the two leaves containing the " Address to the Header '' and Stephen Gosson's verses were first added in the 1596 volume : they are here in the original edition. Collier is also mistaken in asserting that the " auncient gentleman" of the Epistle Dedicatory, with whom Nicholas had an interesting conversation, was identical with Agustin de Zarate, the historian of Peru.

Although two copies are here described, no other has appeared in the public sales for the last twenty years, the reprint of 1729 being apjiarently the only form of the work which was attainable by most of the collectors of Americana. Garcia's opinion, as opposed to the special theories of other writers, was that the American Indians drew their origin from various races of the old world, including Chinese and Tatars. But all his learning on this subject is of less value than the positive facts concerning the native tribes, which he drew partly from his own experiences in the New World, and partly from a MS. work by Juan de Vetanzos (one of the com- panions of I'izarro, and a man specially skilled in the native languages), which was in the possession of Garcia, and which has never been published. — The libro ultimo of Garcia's work contains the native Indian accounts of their origin, and is divided into sections which treat separately the various distinct tribes of Mexico and Peru. 28356 Lang (J.

The Antiquitates Americance in which Rafn has since re-asserted and confirmed the statements of Torfseus, established the fact that Norsemen, about the end of the tenth century, discovered and for about three centuries colonized a portion of the New England States. The colony perished at length for want of unmigration, and the occurrences fell into oblivion ; for although they are referred to in the Chronicle of Adam of Bremen (1072), which was first published in 1579, neither the old Chronicler nor his sixteenth- century readers knew to what part of the world the events had reference. 28362 T0RF.SI (Thormodi) Gronlandia antiqva, seu veteris Gronlandise descriptio . . . 12mo. 5 folding engraved maps, morocco extra, gilt edges, rare, £4. 4s Havnice, 1715 This work is the source of everything in modem literature concerning the annals of Greenland during the Middle Ages, — thus involving, likewise, the history of Norse navigation and that of the Norse colonies in America.

It was written in 1463, and records the conquest of Ceuta by the Portuguese in 1415 — the first step in that series of expeditions which led to the Voyage round the Cape and the discovery of America. The capture and annexation of Ceuta are events that belong to the biography of " Prince Henry the Navigator." The Chronicle was printed for the first time in 1792, by Correa da Serra. The present MS. was transcribed about 1620 from a copy made in 1470, in the house of the Archpriest of Lisbon, by Joam Gonzalez, scribe and hiscuit-Vaker. 28386 Chronica do Descobrimento e Conquista de GUINE, escrita sob a direc9ao do Infante D.

Oglin et Jeo. Nadler, 1508 On the reverse of the first leaf, in a letter to Jacobus Philomusus [Locher] dated 20 May, 1506, we find the words of which the following is a translation — "I make however no mention of the discovered islands, but you may examine the two little tracts (which I send you herewith) of Cristofer Colom, the discoverer of the same, and of Albericus Vespucius concerning the new discovered world (to both of whom our age is most largely indebted)." This means that the Epistola of Columbus (1493) and the Epistola of Vespucci (1503), accompanied Stamler's letter ; and its chief significance lies in the apparent assignment of equal eminence to the two Italians whose names are imperishably associated with the New World. 28390 FULGOSI (Bapt.) deDictisfactisquememorabilibus (illisexceptis quse Max.

Mediolani, Jac. Ferrarius, 1509 On thereverse of sig. llii. in lib. vii, the discovery by Christopher Columbus of a way to the Indies, shorter than any known before, is recorded (although with the mistake that the voyage had been accomplished in thirty-one days). Fulgosus states that this new way was much easier, shorter, and better than the long and dangerous voyage roimd the Cape and through the Indian Ocean, by which Vasco da Gama had sought the same regions. In spite of its errors, this constitutes an interesting and very early notice of the two most important voyages in the long annals of Geographical Discovery. The Invention of Typography by " Contembergns Argentinensis " is also related, with an insinuation that the inventor had been directly inspired by God. By this wonderful art, he says that the great writers of ancient days may be said to have begun their existence in 1440. 28391 ANGHIERA(PietroMartired'). P.MARTYRIS . . .

Thus it falsifies the statement made in the heading of the fourth Decade (in the edition of 15.30, Ahala") " nunc primum Data et cxcusa," a phrase which signifies now first published and printed, not (as Eden rendered it) " now first set forth and examined." We must assume that it was jirinted without the knowledge and consent of Peter Martyr, — a conjecture strengthened by the fact that the text is addressed to the F<>pe, while the dedication (hy the printer) is made to Joannes CateujEus, the physician of' Margaret of Austria, and the title-page absurdly states that it was to tlie princess herself. 28395 DE ORBO NOUO DECADES . . . sm. folio, some leaves dis- coloured, border of title slightly cut into, vellmn, from the Ramirez library, £62.

It was republished in 1847 by Ribadeneyra, who then added the second and third parts, which had never before been printed. It is a versified history of the discovery of America and of the deeds of heroism performed by Spanish leaders during the sixty years that followed the event. The metrical form employed is that of Tasso's Gerusalemmc, but the spirit of poetry has token refuge elsewhere. Castellanos had been himself one of the conquistador es, and spent, as he says, the best part of his life in the New World. Conse:htened and truthful.

Rey do Manuel . . . folio, first edition, ruled througliout with red ink, fine copy, bound in calf by an English binder, with gilt ornaments of Lyonese styles on the sides and on the back, gilt edges, £80. Lixboa, loam de Barreyra, 1557 The binding was executed in London towards the end of the sixteenth centnry. Excessively rare — so rare indeed that there is no copy in the British Museum, and the Hakluyt Society editor of Alboquerque's com- mentaries was obliged to make his translation from the reprint of 1574 (in the Grenville library). The Royal Library at Dresden contains a copy of the first edition of 1557, and there was one in the bookseller Thorpe's possession about fifty years ago, which has now disappeared. No others seem to be known. The Salva library, like our great national collection, can only exhibit the 1574 reprint — also a very scarce book, but of a totally different degree of rarity and intrinsic value. After having completed his well-known Navigations, Hakluyt turned to the Portuguese sources which he had not previously had access to, and printed in 1601 a translation from Galvao's Descobrimentos — an exceedingly rare book printed at Lisbon in 1563. From the age and origin of the binding of this volume, we may conjecture that it belonged to him. It is highly probable that when he obtained the original Galvao, he also procured the Alboquerque — a book which he had evidently known by report only, to judge from the manner in which, in his Navigations, he mentions the name of the great Portuguese captain. 28436 Alboquerque.

The prel. 11. have some " Tercetos " of Lns de Camoexs, which are not included in the poet's works published under his own name. The work of Magalhaes, which is the first history of the Portuguese discovery and settlements in Brazil, is so excessively rare that it is questionable whether three copies now exist. Forty years ago, two copies were known : that in the national library of Rio de Janeiro, and the one which had belonged to Ternaux. At present, it is said that the Rio copy has dis- appeared ; and. we do not know what has become of Ternaux's. There is no copy in Portugal, for when a new edition was printed at Lisbon in 1858, the impression was made from an old MS. copy of the printed book of 1576. The work is absolutely necessary to the American student as being the earliest printed account of the first fifty years of Portuguese rule in Brazil. The natural history and the customs of the Indians are treated in succession to the political narrative; so that this may be called, with regard to South America, a Portuguese counterpart of Oviedo's work on the Spanish Indies. 28482 CoRDEiRO (L.) de la Part prise par les Portugais dans la Decouverte de I'Amerique, 8vo. sd. 2s Qd Lisbonne, 1876 Lafitau — see ante, No. 28335.

From that map and from another, also drawn by a Seville pilot, the editor of the Lihro Secondo caused three new ones to be compiled and engraved (one general and two special), which were issued, or intended to be issued, with this Libro Secondo, but only one copy is known which contains them. 28504 Libro primo de la Conqnista del Peru, sm. 4to. want- ing title and prelimifiary leaves (^together 11 II.), old blue morocco gilt, £2. 10s Stephana da Sabio, 1535 Vert fare.

The statement clearly made on the second title concerning the translator and the original work disposes of the confusion of Bruuet with regard to the authorship, and of Harrisse on the subject of the translator, concerning whose birthplace he quotes hesitatingly the conflicting statements of Ternaux and Alcedo. It proves the book to be a version of the Spanish one printed at Seville by Perez (in 1534), and that the translator was a native of Tudela in Navarre. 28505 CIEQA de LEON, parte primera de la Chronica del Peru, que tracta la demarcacion de sus provincias, la descripciones dellas, las fundaciones de las nuevas ciudades, los ritos y costumbres de los Indios, y otras cosas dignas de ser sabidas, folio Sevilla, 1553 Original edition. — see ante No. 28326, for a copy bound up with the first edition of hoPEZ de Gomara. 28506 parte primera de la Chronica del Peru que tracta la demarcacion de sus provincias .... ritos y costumbres de los Indios, etc. 12mo. ivith Bellero's map of the New World and other icoodcuts, bds.

The original publishei-'s second edition of the first published narrative con- cerning the first circumnavigation of the globe. Mr. Harrisse has erroneously given the first place to the Cologne reprint of Januar)' 1523(-24) and the second to Calvus' original edition of November, 152-3, taking the ambiguous date as his criterion. We learn from the printer's dedication on the Rome edition, that Maximilian (who wrote his narrative in Valladol;d on the 24th of October, 1522, taking it down from Pigafetta's relation to the Emperor then holding bis court there) addressed and sent his letter to Mattha;iis Lang, Cardinal Archbishop of Salzburg (and also Bishop ol Cariagena), whom it reached in November, while the Cardinal was in Niirnherg attending the Reichstag, to which the Pope had sent, as his orator, Francesco Chericati, the Bishop of Abnizzo. The latter prelate having been the former protector of I'igafctia (whom he had taken with him to Spain in 1510) naturally took more interest HISTORY OF DISCOVERT: MAGELLAN'S VOYAGE. 2811 1519 Discovert of the Straits of Magellax — contitmed. in the account of the voyage than did the Cardinal, and begged the latter for a copy, which he sent to Kome to Miuitius Calvus for publication. Calvus does not say when he received it, but we may presume that the busiiness of the Keichstag would occupy the attention of both the ecclesiastics for some time. It is certain that he did not print the Epistola till November, 1523, one year ("abhinc annum ") after the Cardinal had handed the transcript to the Bishop, and he then had the license granted which threatened penalties against any one else who, uspiam gentium, should within ten years attempt to produce it. Notwithstanding this prohibition, the work proved so interesting that Hirzhorn reprinted it at Cologne in the following January, 1524, and Calvus brought out his above second edition in February of that year. Hirzhorn, or Cervicornus, dated his coloiihon with 1523, as was the more customary practice, the month being January, and the new year (1524) not supposed lo begin till March ; but few persons will believe that his edition preceded by ten months the quasi-official publication at Rome which was printed twice during three months. Maximilian married into the family of Christoval de Haro who had promoted Magellan's expedition. 28523 PIGAPETTA (Antonio) prime Viaggio intorno al Globe Terracqueo, os.sia ragguaglio della navigazione fatta sulla sqaadra del Capit.

Vicentia, cu la impensa de Mgro Henrico Vicentino : & diligente cura & industria de Zamaria suo fiol nel Mcccccvii (1507) First issue of the first edition, and excessively rare. 2820 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. 1507 ViCENZA, Fracanzano — continued. This work was truly the first Collection of Voyages ever compiled. [The Portuguese book, dated 1502, and containing the travels of Marco Polo, Hieronymo di S. Stephano, and Nicolo Conti together, translated by Valentino Fernandez Aleman, is hardly entitled to such a distinction, and it certainly does not belong to the Italian abridgment of Peter Martyr's first Decade (Libretto de tutta la Navigation) printed at Venice in 1504, and here reprinted in the Paesi.] That it is absolutely of the first issue, appears from the number of chapters, and from the full colophon which ends with " Cum gratia & priuilegio p. ani. x. como nella sua Bolla appare : che p. soa del Dominio Veneto no ardisca iprimerlo." In some copies, this colophon ends with the word "priuilegio," from which we may conclude that they belong to a reissue made when the ten years' privilege was nearly run out (after the date of the Itinerarium Portugall. 1508). The compiler of the work was Fracanzio di Montalboddo or " Montalboddo Fracan " as it appears at the heading of the dedicatory epistle ; and the contents of the work are as follows : — Voyages of Cadamosto and Pedro de Cintra, in Portuguese service, 1454, 1463, their first publication (Capp. i-l). Vasco da Gama's Voyage round the Cape, 1497-1500, its first publication (li-lxii). Cabral's Voyage, 1500, first publication of the narrative concerning the discovery of Brazil (lxiii-lxxxiii). Abridgment of Peter Martyr's yet unpublished first Decade, containing voyages of Columbus, Alonso Nino, Pinzon, 1492- 1500, already printed at Venice in 1504 (lxxxiv-CXIIi). Vespucci's Letter to Lorenzo di Pier Fr. de Medici, retranslated from the printed Latin of 1503 (cxiv-cxxiv). Letters of Venetian ambassadors and merchants, dated 1501-1502, concerning the Portuguese voyages to India, and Corte Real's voyage to America — first publication (cxxv-cxxviii). Account of India, by loseph of Cranganor (the Indian Christian whom Cabral brought from India in 1501), given in 1502, first publication (cxxix-cxLii). As will appear from the preceding detail, the chapters are l-CXLii in this first issue of the Paesi. In the second issue, which presents the truncated colophon referred to above, another chapter (cxLiii) was added giving a translation of King Manoel's letter to Pope Julius II concerning his conquest in India (Emanuelis Obedientia, etc. printed at Rome in 1505). — Mr. Harrisse says that the Cabral Voyage (capp. 63-83 above) was translated from King Emanuel's Letter to the King of Castile, printed in Italian at Rome and Milan in 1505 ; but this is simply a blunder. The American portion was printed for the first time in the Paesi, and was evidently derived from the Portuguese report sent home from Brazil by Cabral before he proceeded on his eastern course — the original report itself being entirely lost. COLLECTIONS OF VOYAGES : PAESL 2821 1507 ViCENZA, Fracanzano — continued. 28578 ITINERARIU PORTUGALLESIU e lusitania IN India & inde in occidentem & demum ad AQUiLONEM, sm. folio, cicri'ous woodcut map on title- page^ with the two leaves of Index, which are usually wanting, fine copy Mediolani, 1508 Excessively rare. The Beckford copy fetched £78. This work is a translation into Latin by Archangelus Madrignanus, a Cistercian monk, of the famous first edition ( Vicenza, 1507) of the " Paesi novamente retrovati, et Novo Mondo da Alberico Yespntio Florentino intitulato," and ends like the first issue of its original with chap. 142. The value of the leaves of Index in the Itinerarium Portugallensium, and the necessity of possessing them, must be estimated from the fact that they give an analysis of the contents together with the names of the discoverers, while the text of the book runs on from chapter to chapter without distinction. The eighth and last preliminary leaf (not including the two leaves of Index) ends with a metrical eulogium upon Madrignano by Quintianus Stoa. These verses close with a semicolon at the bottom of the reverse page, so that many persons have been led to think there ought to be some further preliminary matter in continuation of the iambics. But the semicolon is simply intended for a mark of interrogation, set at the end of a question in which the verses are brought to a conclusion and a climax thus: An credis ergo dignior mortalibus Sit qui labores superet et vivens deum ? Fernandez de Oviedo y Valdes (Gonqalo) Libro XX DE LA SEGUNDA PaRTE DE LA GENERAL HiSTORIA DE LAS InDIAS QUE TRATA DEL ESTRECHO DE MaGAL- LANS, coat of arms on title Valladolid, 1557 the above two volumes in one, folio, veau fauve, with arms and mo7iogram of J. A. Thuanus and Gas- parde de La Chastre, in gold on sides and hack, £48. Excessively rare. This twentieth book is all that was originally published of the second part of Oviedo, on account of the author's death. It was of especial interest as containing an account of the great voyage of Magellan, and of later expeditions to the Moluccas. There is a woodcut in Oviedo of a coin used in the Moluccas, bearing a Chinese inscription — which was the first appearance of that language in European works. 28579 LE NOUUEAU MONDE et nauigations faictes p.

Paris, Galliot Du Pre (1516) FIRST EDITION of the French translation of the Paesi. Brunet and Harrisse have invented a strange theory concerning the chronological succession of the editions. The facts are plain. This was the original edition, produced by the legitimate publisher, and bearing the privilege, dated 1516, -which gave him the monopoly. While his privilege ran, no printed edition could be issued with a date. Hence the others which exist, five or six in number, bear no honestly recorded year of impres- sion and have no privilege. Another significant token is the fact that in the chapters of Vespucci's third voyage, there are three diagrams of stars, bold woodcuts, in Galliot Dupre's edition, which were omitted through carelessness by the reprinters, notwithstanding the catchwords in the text. 28580 Sensuyt le Nouueau mode & naiiigations : faictes p.

On fol. iv : On les vent a paris en la rue neufue nostre dame a leinseigne de lescu de Prance. On title: xix (? 1519) First edition, according to Brunet and Harrisse. — This second edition has not the woodcut of stars as mentioned in the note to Galliot Dupre's edition. The conclusion it seems just to draw from a comparison of the undated editions is this, that at least four Paris publishers, Jean Trepperel, Philippe Le Noir, Denis Jeannot, Jacques Jannot, reprinted the book at a time when it was uncertain whether Dupre's privilege had expired, or when the latter was seeking to renew it; and that ihej omitted the dates intentionally, — unless, indeed, the Gothic figures XIX which appear in the title-page above were intended to stand as a date intangible by the law. Brunet, in all such cases, of which many are found between 1510 and 1530, held that the two Gothic numerals merely indicated the number of sheets in the book, but that theory is frequently at fault, while there is inherent probability in nearly every instance in which a chronological value is given them.

The anonymous editor dedicates the Extraict, which is a French abridgment of Peter Martyr's first three Decades made before the publication of the entire eight in 1530, to Charles, Due d' Angouleme. The Narrations are dedicated, not to Margaret of Austria, but to Margaret of France. The first is an abridg- ment of the fourth Decade printed at Basil in 1521. The second and third are draTi-n from the second and third Cortes letters, printed in Latin at Niirnberg in 1524. Consequently the " Extraict " must be held to take precedence of Grynseus, as the Novus Orbis did not begin to embody Cortes' letters till 1555. The compiler was probably one of the distinguished scholars who surrounded the two pi'omising children of Francis I, men- tioned as receiving the dedications. The Due d'Angouleme was then only ten years of age, the Princess Marguerite (after- wards Duchess de Berri, and wife of Emanuel Philibert of Savoy) only nine, but they were already regarded as future patrons of literatui-e, and their education was carefully cultivated. — This rare work fetched at the Beekford-Hamilton sale £126. 1532-34 Franciscan Letters from Mexico: 28583 Martin of Valencia, Juan de Zumarraga, Peter of Ghent.

Simon Cocus, 1584 At the end of this Clironicle we find the letters lelerred to on the title. The first and second are the two (written in Mexico in 1531, by Martin of Valencia and Bi>hop Zumarraga) which had been printed by order of the Franciscan Chapter at Toulouse in \5-V2. But a third is added which is of still more im^jortance to the American student, and which had not previously been printed, although wiitten earlier than the other two. It is the Latin version of an Epistola from Friar Peter de Gante himself, dated 2Ist June, 1529, and addressed generally to all the Franciscans in Flande s, but originally written in b^panish because, he says, he had quite forgotten his native tongue. He gives an interesting account, in six pages, of the Mt-xic.-in country and people, aiid describes biniseif as i^etrus de Mura (? Moere), born in the city of Yguen in the province of Budarda, who \uth two others had left Ghent in Apiil, 1522, Uh- .-pain, and eadjaricnig un ist May, 1523, reached Villenque (in America) 2824 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. on the 30th August, whence they made their way to the city of Mexico. From Mexico he went to Tezcuco, where he remained three years and a half (his fellows had accompanied Cortes elsewhere and were dead). Thence returning to Mexico, he was settled permanently, and was labouring as an instructor of youth. His method of dealing with fifty boys of special excel- lence shows him to have been a useful labourer. He asks that some one will translate his letter into Flemish, that it may be read to his parents, and begs that a Bible shall be sent him. Then he finishes with a sentence in Mexican — a remarkable specimen, as being the first appearance of an American language in print. 1532 Grynseus : 28584 NOVUS ORBIS Regionum ac Insularum Veteribus incognita- rum, nna cum tabula cosmographica, & aliquot aliis consimilis argumenti libellis, sm. folio, First Edition, with large Map of the World, in the original boards, covered with stamped leather, with clasps, £7. 10s Basil., Jo.

The map by Oronce Fin^, one of the most curious and ingenious productions of early cartography, is alone worth more than any copy of the other editions of Grynseus, and is usually wanting. 28587 Novus Orbis, adjecta est huic postremae editioni Navigatio, etc. sm. folio, inap, vellum, £4. 4s Basil., J.

A large and important portion of the collec- tion was entirely new, taken from unpublished MSS. Its value to the student of American History and Geography cannot be over-estimated.

The contents of this volume are chiefly known through De Bry {Grands Voyages, part 2), a modern reprint produced at Paris, and a translation in French's Historical Collections of Louisiana. It was Kichard Hakluyt who furnished the MS. from which Basanier published the narrative, and the book is dedicated by the editor to Sir Walter Kaleigh, to whom also are addressed the preliminary pieces of verse, one of them by Hakluyt himself. The rarity of the book and the reason why it had not sooner been printed, are to be accounted for by the fact that all the persons connected with the transactions recorded in it, were Huguenots. The four parts of which the volume consists are — Ribaut's Voyage, 1562; Laudonniere'sin 1564; Ribaut's in 1565 ; and that of Goitrgues in 1567. The account here given of the Indian tribes of Florida is very extensive, and was almost the first upon the subject, having only been preceded by the notices contained in the Naufragit)s of Cabeza de Vaca. The word Florida, it must be remembered, had a more extensive signification formerly than at present, being applied to the whole continent lying between JSew Spain and Canada. see also De Bry, Grands Voyages, Part 2. 1589, 1598 Hakluyt's great collection : 28632 THE PRINCIPALL NAVIGATIONS, Voiages and Disco- teries of the English Nation, made by Sea or ouer land . . . •whereunto is added the last most renowmed English Nauigation round about the whole Globe of the earth.

In fact, the work itself was only known through its second edition ( — see below), which is described carefully both by Brunet and by Ternatix, but naturally without any indication of the real authorship. In the first edition, there is a dedication to Philippe de Mornay, signed by the Huguenot Minister, Louis de le Blachiere, in "which he reveals the author's name as above, stating that Bruneau had been Sergeant-major under Mornay's command at l^anmur. We know from his own text of the second " Voyage fait au Perou " in this volume, that he had commanded a company of foreign foot inside Rochelle during the siejre in 1572. In the second edition the dedication is suppressed, and a false authorship suggested by initials on the title. 28653 Histoire veritable deplvsievrs voyages Aduentdredx, & perilleux, faits sur la mer, en diuerses contrees . . . par I.

First Edition of the account of Giovanni del Plan Carpin concerning his embassy from the Pope to the successor of Chingiz Khan (a.d. 1246-47) ; full of curious and authentic information about the Mongolian Empire in its full extent, and the subjugated or tributary nations. Of the Chinese he says that " better artificers could not be found in the world, in whatever labour their skill be exercised. Their land is most rich in corn, wine, gold, silk, and other things." The work had already been extracted in the Speculum of Vincent de Beauvais, but this rare little volume (afterwards reprinted by Ramusio) was virtually the first complete publication of the narrative, and the best until the Sodeie de Geographie printed the original Latin text in 1839. In the series of mediasval historical travels fi'om Europe into and through Asia, in which Marco Polo and Mandeville are included, the expedition of Giovanni del Plan Carpin takes the first place. 28701 Du Plan de Carpin, Relation des Mongols ou Tartares, premiere edition complete, precedee d'une notice sur les anciens Voyages en Tartaric par D'Avezac, 4to. map, sd. 20s Paris, 1838 28702 the same, 4to. green morocco extra, gilt edges, 30s 1838 1253: RuBRUQUis (Guillanme de) Travels in the East — see Soci^T^ de Geographie, No. 28689. 1260-95 : 28703 MARCO POLO, Voyages de, publics (d'apres un MS. inedit du texte fran^ais original, par Roux), 4to. — see Societe de Geographie, No. 28G89.

The con tro- ver sy which has long raged with regard to the genuineness of the map (in which Greenland is better designed than in any map printed before 1558) is still unended, and Baron Nordenskjold has added his celebrated name to the number of the disputants. Mr. Major has pretty nearly settled the matter of the text, and assigned their proper local relation to the chief circumstances of tlie narrative, but the history of the enigmatical map has still to be traced. The Zeno who gave it to the world in 1558 states that he produced it from the old MS. chart left by his ancestor, and it is evident from the configuration of Greenland that he possessed better sources of knowledge than any of his contemporaries. The lands which appear on the left margin of the map (broken by the border of the engraving), lie south-west of Green- land, and are marked Estotiland (Labrador) and Drogeo (which is either the south-east corner of Labrador, or else Newfoundland). see also Haklutt Society. 1389: 28726 JOANNES DE HBSE.

Only two copies of the original work of Syllacias (or Scillace) have survived. It was printed in 1491-95, and had been written down directly from communications furnished by an Italian resident in Spain concerning Columbus' second voyage.

The substance of the narrative has only hitherto been known through the medium of the Latin paraphrase annexed to W aid seem tiller's Cosmographia in 1507, and the numerous reprints an# abridgments of that work ; and as they were disfigured by a great number of errors which have tended to discredit the Florentine navigator, it has been considered necessary and useful to reproduce the Italian original in a perfect facsimile and to bring out a literal version in English. The publisher's intention has been to facilitate the study of the work by American students, who are naturally extremely interested in the history of Vespucci's voyages — especially the first (1497 98), in which it is almost certain that he saw and landed on portions of the now United States at a date earlier than any othir European voyager since the reputed Norse discovery The claim of anteriority made on behalf of the Cabots is not considered valid, the expedition from Bristol in 1497 being now proved to have been confined to the coast of Labntdor. 2858 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. 1497 Vespucci — c(nitinu'?cl. 28744 COSMOGRAPHIAE INTRODVCTIO, | cym qvibvsdam | geometriae | ac | astrono | niiae principiis | ad earn rem necessariis j Iiisuper quatiior Americi Ye- | spucii nauigationes . . . sm. 4to. diagrams^ mclading the folding leaf with the large Glohe^ red morocco, hy Bedford, £150.

This is on folio a5, and consists of the following statement: " alia quarta pars \_inundQ per Americum Vesputium (ut in sequentibus audietur) inventa est quam non video cur quis jure vetet ab Americo inventore sagacis ingenii viro Amerigen quasi Americi terrain sive Americam dicendam." The world has adopted the suggestion of Waldseemiiller, although many consider that the fame of Columbus was injured by the appellation, and nothing can now avail to change it. This has also been supposed to contain the first publication of the account of Vespucci's Four Voyages, but it is now certain that the Italian text (so rare that only five copies have survived) was printed in 1505 or 1506. 28745 COSMOGRAPHIE INTRODUCTIO : cum quibusdam Geometrie ac Astronomic principiis ad . eam rem necessariis.

Joannes Griim'ger, apiid Argentoracos, 1509 With verses addressed to the Emperor by " Philesius Vogesigena," on the back of the title, and the substitution in the dedication of the name of " Martinus Ilacomilus " for that of " Gymnasium Vosagense," as it appeared in the first edition. Humboldt hastily misread a statement inserted by Hylacomylus in the Margarita Philosophica of 1513, and drew fi"om it an absurd conclusion which Mr. Harrisse bas followed liberally. In April, 1607, Hylacomylus published his work under the name of the Gymnasium Vosagense, that is the Academy of four or five scholars in which he took a leading place ; and in the dedication to Maximilian he naturally used that name in the heading, and the words nos and nubis in the text, as in the following reference to his labours: "nobis (qui librariara officinam apud Lotharingie Vosagum in oppido cui vocabulu est NARRATIVES OF VOYAGERS. 2869 1497 Vespucci — continued. Sancto Deodato, nuper ereximus) Ptholomei libros . . . recognos- cetibus . . ." Thus his Cosmographia "was anonymous, and in the passage quoted by Humboldt (written some years later in in another book, and mentioning his autumn excursion from. Lorraine into Germany) he refers parenthetically to the fact that other persons passim had taken the credit of the authorship. This was of course not in any way an allusion to any member or members of the Gymnasium of St. Die, but to persons elsewhere in the learned world ; and such was the reason which induced Waltzemiiller to make the small changes above noted, in his third and fourth issues of the Cosmographia. The first issue was that of April (Kal, Maii), 1507 ; the second, August (Kal. Sept.), 1507 ; the third and fourth were produced between 1507 and 1509, by reprinting, at one and the same time probably, and mutatis mutandis, two leaves to be substituted in the unsold copies of the former two editions, 28746 MUNDUS NOUUS.

His Itinerary, or diary, was finished at S.Domingo in 1522, where he died three years later. His account of the great Genoese navigator, and of the people of the West Indies, renders this work indispensable in an American historical library. Amongst the preliminary pieces of verse in various languages, there is one in English by John Walker, who records the fact that Amerinus had been the tutor of four Queens, one of them being Katherine of Aragon, Henry VIII's wife. 1519: Magellan's Voyage — see Pigafetta'a Narrative, No. 28522. see Hakluyt Society, No. 1519 : CORTES (Fernan) Reports sent from Mexico— see Nos. 28492, etc. see also Ramusio and De Bry. 1520 : 28766 ALVAREZ (Francisco) Ho Preste Joam das Indias.

It is the record of the first journey made by Europeans through the United States. Cabeza de Vaca and a few others who survived the shipwreck of the expedition, were seized by the Indians on the Mississippi coast and held in slavery for four years, but escaped and made their way inland across Texas to Sonora, or near to the inmost shore of the Gulf of California. Thence he and his three companions traversed the country southwards, and succeeded in reaching Mexico once more. On his return to Spain in 1537, having failed to get the governorship of Florida, which had been given to Soto, he obtained that of the River Plate in 1540. He arrived in Uruguay in 1541, and proceeded to Asuncion, the capital of Paraguay, where Spanish authority was now seated, the site of Buenos Ajres having been abandoned. His work thenceforward was the exploration of the regions around the Paraguay and Parana, the conciliation of the Indian tribes, and the discovery of the route towards Peru. He was however made prisoner by mutineers, and sent back to Spain in 1545. His secretary Pedro Hernandez wrote this narrative (which is the first printed account of the Plata region), to which is appended a Relacion made in 1545 by Hernando de Ribera, whom Cabeza de Vaca had sent on a journey of exploration northwards up the River Paraguay. see also Ram.usio. 1529; Parmextiee (Jean) Voyage in the Indian Ocean — see Ramusio, No. 28593. see also Estancelin, No. 28535.

It is No. 2 of Harrisse's list, Alfonce having been associated with Koberval in the expedition to New France in 1542, in which the latter was to have been accompanied by Cartier. No copy of this edition has turned up for sale in the English market tor the last fifty years, and apparently only three (including this) in France. The descriptions of the coasts of Labrador, Newfoumlhuul, and the Gulf of St. Laurence, offer a curious conjunction of the knowledge personally acquired, and the information derived on one hand from Cartier, on the other from Portuguese and Spanish sources.

The French designs were in a few years' time completely frustrated, but they lasted long enough to produce a considerable number of expeditions, and a belief that France would justify the title conferred on the settlement by Thevet. His account of the natives, their country, and their language, is very ample, and the woodcuts which illustrate the volume are of remarkable merit. They furnished De Bry with some of his most striking pictures. — In the return voyage, Bois-le-Comte seems to have sailed northwards, and Thevet speaks of Canada and Newfoundland as if he had been there himself. He mentions Cartier as having told hita some facts concerning his two voyages. It is strange tliat Harrisse did not include Thevet in his Notes pour servir a Vhistoire de la Nouvelle France. There are 32 pages given to Canada, with some woodcuts, and this alone ought to give a Thevet's Singularitez the very second place in that bibliography.

But his accounts ot what he actually saw have a high geographical interest, and Schomburgk has proved that his descriptions of Indian tribes are accurate ; ■while his own tragical and romantic history, combined with the fact that he ■was the founder of England's colonial empire, and the first figure in the Annals of the United States, gives to his Guiana a commercial value and importance beyond its mere literary rank. Harcourt's Relation is a rare book, but Keymis' is of the highest degree of rarity, not more than three or four copies having occtured in the market during the last seventy years. 1598: 28816 SHERLEY (Sir Antony) Relation of his Travels into Persia, sm. 4to. toith the rare portrait by Sadeler, calf extra, gilt edges, by Kalthoeber, from the BecJcford library, £10. lOs 1613 28816* the same, sm. 4to. without the portrait, green viorocco extra, g. e. by Zoehnsdorf, side notes of a few leaves slightly cut ■ into, £4. 4s J 613 1599-1631 : CHAMPLAIX (Samuel de) Voyage to the West Indies, 1599- 16u2, translated from the original MS. — see Hakluyt Society. 28817 Les Voyages de Sievi' de Champlain Xaintongeois divisez en devx livres, ou, lovrnal tres-fidele des observations faites es descouuertures de la ISTouuelle France . . . small 4to. 8 separate maps, and 2 plates, with some others which are printed on the text, bds. £25.

These last four voyages are treated as independent of the precedmg two expeditions, and are called I-IV.

The mass of curious information which he has procured in those distant travels, and the superb collection which he was enabled to make relative to different objects of science, far exceed an^ thing that has heretofore been achieved by the exertions of an individual." — Edinburgh Review, Vol. 16. 2886 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. 1 799- 1 878— contimied. 28958 Humboldt, Vues des CORDILLERES, et Monumens des Peuples Indigenes de I'Amerique, impl. folio, 69 large plates of Mexican, Peruvian, and other Picture-writing , Hiei'oglyphics, Bas-reliefs, Costumes, Views, etc. many of them finely coloured (pub. 567 fr.), hf. hd. uncut, £6. 10s Paris, 1810 28959 Histoire de la Geograpliie du Nouveau Continent, et progres de I'Astronomie Nautiqne aux XVe et XVIe siecles, 5 vols. 8vo. facsimiles of Juan de la Cosa's map, hf. cf. 25s 1836-9 28960 Researches, concerning the Institutions and Monu- ments of the Ancient Inhabitants of America, with Scenes in the Cordilleras, translated by H.

It is the best statistical account that exists concerning the Spanish Empire in New Spain, California, and Central America, embracing also short historical summaries, and was considered by the King and Council to be a document of singular value for their own information. It is to be presumed that only so many copies were printed as were needed for ofiScial reference. Diez de la Calle, who was Assistant- Secretary of the Council, had already in 1645 prepared and printed an abstract of the same particulars which were here given in their full and enlarged form. The preface mentions that he was preparing a similar document with regard to Pei'u, which was given to the press in 1654, and issued to the Council along with a re-impression of the above Memorial. 29015 [FERNANDEZ DE ENCISO (Martin)] Suma de GEOGRAPHIA Q.

Sevilla, por Jacoho Croherger^ 1519 The first book printed in Spain and in Spanish relating TO America. The author describes himself as " Alguazil mayor de la Tierra firme de las Indias Occidentales," and gives in the first place a summary of general Geography, followed by a closely detailed account of the West Indies, the mainland of South America, and of the northern coast to Labrador as far as then known. His own experience during twenty years enabled him to satisfy the curiosity of the young King Charles I of Spain, soon afterwards Charles V of the Empire, completely so far as regarded the Islands and the coasts of the southern mainland. He mentions in his dedication a map of the world that he had constructed to accompany the text and elucidate it for the king. This valuable document was never published, but it perhaps exists still in the archives of Spain. The first hint which the invaders seem to have had of the civilization existing in Mexico and Peru is to be found on the second-last page where Enciso states : " Tambien ay tierra a donde los indios dizen que ay gente que tienen libros y que escriven y leen como nosotros." Enciso is stated in the Bibl. Amer. Vetust. to have gone out with Bastidas (who left Spain in 1501), but the authority quoted is Herrera, Dec. I, lib. 7, which is not correct. Herrera at that place refers only toEnciso as assisting in Ojeda's expedition to the mainland in 1509. He commences to speak of him thus, and it is the first mention of his name in the Decades : " Hallabase entonces en Santo Domingo un letrado llamado Martin Fernan- dez de Enciso que havia ganado a abogar dos mil castellanos que eran mas en aquel tiempo que aora diezmil." The profitable nature of a lawyer's business amongst the early invaders may from this be readily imagined. It is not improbable that Enciso may have been the only one of them who really deserved the name of letrado. He took the command of the forces on Ojeda's death in 1510, and founded the town of Darien, but soon came to loggerheads with Vasco Nunez de Valboa who had surrepti- tiously joined the expedition and speedily obtained the ascend- ancy due to his genius. Roughly treated by Nuiiez, he returned to Spain in 1512 to seek for redress, which was granted him in a royal decree against his enemy, who was then engaged in his great expedition of traversing the Isthmus. Enciso went out again in 1514 as Alguazil Mayor with Pedrarias Davila the Governor of Darien. He was again in Spain in 1529, as we find that he had Pizai*ro arrested in Seville in that year for debt. (Herrera, dec. IV, p. 104.) When sent by Davila on an expedition to the mouth of the river Zenu, about half-way between Cartagena and the Gulf of Darien, in the year 1515, the Bachiller Enciso had a very curious conversation with two of the Indian chiefs whom he required to make submission to the Spanish King, and he records it with SPANISH AMERICA. 2893 such remarkable faithfulness and literal ity, in spite of the scandal and the Inquisition, that it must be supposed he was struck by the good sense and forcible character of the observa- tions he heard. The remark about the Pope is omitted by Herrera, who perhaps was prudent in doing so. En lo que dezia que no avia sine un Dios qae este governava el cielo y la tierra y que era seiior de todo que les parecia bien y que assi devia ser; pero que en lo que dezia que el Papa era senor de todo el universo, en lugar de Dios, y que el avia fecho mei-ced de aquella tierra al rey de Castilla, dixeron que el Papa deviera estar borracho quando lo hizo pues dava lo que no era suyo, y que el rey que pedia y tomava tal merced devia ser algun loco pues pedia lo que era de otros y que fuesse alia a tomarla. In what I said that there was only one God, that he governed heaven and earth, and that he was Lord of all, it appeared well to them and that it ought to be so ; but as to my statement that the Pope was lord of all the universe in lieu of God, and that he had con- ferred that land upon the King of Castillo, they said that the Pope must have been drunk when he did so, for he gave what was not his own, and that the king who asked for and accepted such a gift must be some idiot, since he asked fox" the property of others and came there to take it. 2901C FERNANDEZ (Fr.

It contains also valuable biographical sketches of the friars who studied the native languages, and accounts of the works they composed in this branch .of philology On p. 1 22 it is stated that the Escala of San Juan Climaco was the first book printed in Mexico, in 1534. The date is 1532 according to Gonzalez Davila. 29017 Feasso (Petrus) De Regio Patronatu ac aliis nonnullis regaliis Regibus Catholicis in Indiarum Occidentalium Imperio pertinen- tibus, sm. folio, engraved title, calf, 36s Matriti, 1677 29018 GARCIA (Gregorio) Origen de los Indies de el Nuevo Mundo e Indias Occidentales, averiguado con disourso de opiniones, segunda impresion anadida, sm. folio, hd. 30s Madrid, 1729 primera edicion, 1607 — see ante No. 28354.

At p. 23 of the first volume, Davila notices the introduction of printing into Mexico in 1532, mentions the first printer, Juan Pablos, and states that the first book printed in the New World was the well-known Scala Paradisi of Joannes Climacus. 29021 LOPEZ DE GOMARA (Francisco) Historia general de las Indias . . . con la Conquista de Mexico y de la Naeva Espana, 2 vols, in 1, sm. folio, with the rare tvoodcut map of the icorld ; one leaf {sign, cii) in facsimile, red morocco extra, by Bedford, £48.

Pictorial Record of the History of the province of Zempuhalan (Cemboallan), portion of the Tezcuco Monarchy of Acolhuacan, sm. foHo, native Manuscript painted on 1^ leaves of maguey paper^ a coarse cloth-like fabric appai'ently made from fibres of the American aloe, £500. fTezciico, about 1530 According to the oi'der in which the leaves are numbered by a comparatively modern hand, they run as follows : Folio 1 (pp. 1-2) On the obverse, a picture of Ixtlilxochitl I, King of Tezcuco (sec. xiv). Above his head are two mountain- peaks with an inscription which appears to read Tzinguliocan- tepetl, which may mean Mountains of Culhoacan, and beneath the hills the words Ne nemi coaxochtli meaning the Boundary- line. These inscriptions are in a large gothic letter of schoolboy style, and indicate a Mexican or Tezcucan hand soon after the conquest. The reverse of the first leaf is blank. 2 (pp. 3-4) On the obverse, a large seated figure of Tenancacaltzin (who was either the Usurper of Tenoyacan, about A.D. 1290, or the brother of the above mentioned Ixtlilxochitl), with his emblem at foot, which is formed by a group of eight amputated heads of princes. On the reverse are the figures of Tecpanacacaltzin-Topiltzin, King of the Toltecs in the twelfth MEXICO : AZTEC PAINTINGS. 2897 Aztec Painted Records — continued. century, and his son Xilotzin. This leaf is intended to exhibit the ancestry of IxtlilxochitL 3 (pp. 5-6) On the obverse, two figures which seem to be intended for the father and mother of the last Ixtlilsochitl (Prince of Tezcuco, who allied himself to Cortes, became Christian, and was King of Tezcuco under Spanish supremacy). On the reverse is a picture of the Temple or Church of Zenpualan. 4 (pp. 7-8) On the obverse are 12 houses, on the reverse more houses and the royal residence. 5 (pp. 9-10) Obverse : two figures of a man and woman seated, with a ti^e or plant below. Reverse : King Ixtlilxochitl and his bride. 6 (pp. 11-12) Obverse : Maxtla, King r f Acaputzalco, and his palaces. Reverse : towns and trees, with names. 7 (pp. 13-14) Obverse: towns and trees with names. Reverse: '^ Totlacata," a cacique and a town with houses. 8 (pp. 15-16) Obverse : Mountain- villages of Tepotzotlan, houses and trees. Reverse : trees, a house, and the figure of a cacique " ye Tzontlimecatl o o o o." 9 (pp. 17-18) Obver.se: two figures, with houses below, showing Ixtlilxochitl's conquest of Coatitlan, and his captives. Reverse. . . . 10 (pp. 19-20) Obverse: King Tlaltecatzin (grandfather of Ixtlilxochitl 1) and his wife (?) and some towns. Reverse: Ixtlilxchitl and another personage. 11 (pp. 21-22) Obverse: Tepaneca towns; a figure and other towns on the reverse. 12 (pp. 23-24) Obvei-se : a seated figure and a town, with the inscription boundary route ; on the reverse, two seated figures and another to^^^l. 13 (25-26) Obverse : Town of Coaxicaltepec, with trees, and a seated figure ; other towns on reverse. 14-16 (pp. 27-32) Six pages of figures of men and women, towns and trees, with inscriptions. This historical record was probably prepared for and used by the last Ixtlilxochitl, whose aid was so important to Cortes, and who was afterwards recognized as King of Tezcuco under Spanish rule. If so, it must have been one of the plnturas to which that prince's descendant Don Fernando de Alva Ixtlilxochitl refers in his Belaciones, as being in his possession some seventy years later than the Conquest. 29041 MEXICAN CALENDAR, a coloured drawing in circular form on a single leaf of agave-paper, con- taining the symbols of the months (the year was divided into eighteen months of twenty days each) in the outer ring of the circle, and several figures within the ring, including pictures of 2898 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. Aztec Painted Records — covtinued. Netzcualcoyotl, the great monarch ot Aculhuacan, who restored the cliief seat of the empire from Mexico to Tezcuco about 1430 ; and Ytzcohuatl his ally, the contemporary King of Mexico, each enthroned with his symbol in front of him, and a temple or royal residence depicted behind him. And of Hernando decor (? Cortes), seated, with a black Spanish hat on his head ; and a round figure painted blue beneath his throne, which probably is intended to represent the Lake of Mexico ; and Don Antonio Pimentel (son of Ixtlilxochitl, the ally of Cortes, and last native King of Tezcuco) seated, with a blue-painted figure of a mountain (the Sierras of Acolhuacan) beneath his throne. Behind them, the royal residences are depicted. The leaf is partly in rotten condition, so that the head of Ixtlilxochitl, and some of the symbols of the months, are lost. However, enough remains to stamp this with extraordinary value, enhanced further by the fact that the various figured symbols of deities' heads, birds, etc. by which the months are distin- guished, are different from those which appear in the published Mexican Calendars. The names of the months are given in Castilian characters, but in the Nahuatl tongue, and there is a Nahuatl inscription under the two great sovereigns Netzcualcoyotl and Itzcohuatl, £40.

'* When, some four centuries ago, the enterprise of Spanish navigators opened the vast continent of America to the admira- tion of Euro))e, the civilization of the New World was found to be concentrated in two spots, and two only, of that enoi-mous territory. One of these favoured regions was Peru ; the other was Mexico. It was in Mexico especially that art, politics AND SCIENCE HAD RECRIVED THKIR GREATEST DEVKLOP.MENT. All MEXICO : AZTEC PICTURES. 2901 Aztec Painted Records — continued, the. rest of North. America, from the shores of Hudson's Bay to the mouths of the Mississippi, was desolate and barbarous, diversified only by swamp, forest, or prairie, and populated by savages without knowledge or laws. Mexico alone redeemed the character of the new continent, and presented to the eyes of the invader a spectacle so marvellous as to satisfy even the expectations which the great discovery had raised. There the Spaniards found an organized State, an ancient polity, an opulent capital, an exalted dynasty, a formidable priesthood, and a people well skilled in mechanical and decorative arts. So great, in fact, was the proficiency of the Mexican workmen, so elaborate the system of government, and so impressive the whole evidence of wealth and grandeur, that for some time the civilization of Mexico was regarded as superior to that of Eui'ope. Although indeed the researches of modern inquirers have enabled us to supply some corrective to these ideas, it is really probable that in certain respects the Spaniards found Mexico more advanced than Spain, and we have been recently assured on the authority of a comprehensive history that this civilization was the necessary incident of geographical and natural advantages. Such was the situation and configuration of Mexico that it could hardly fail to make progress, and all that was discovered there in the shape of national wealth or political order represented extraordinary opportunities which nature had provided." — Times, Dec. 8, 1S58. 29050 Ramirez MSS.

Containing the Acts from Jan. 1562 to April, 1564, in 317 unnumbered leaves. This was one of the most important articles of the Ramirez collection, and ought to be secured by a Public Library in America. At the end of the first volume we learn that in the original books exists a note in the handwriting of the eminent scholar Dn. Carlos Siguenza y Gongora, in which he states that during the tumult which took place in Mexico on the 8th of June, 1692, when the mob burnt both the national and the municipal palace, he saved the original Actas. The value of these six volumes as historical documents cannot be exaggerated, and any one who has dedicated himself to the study of the years immediately following the conquest, and who knows the important pai-t which the Municipal Councils of those times took in all public aifairs of consequence, will at once recognize their utility, because they form, not only the founda- tion of Colonial history, but to a certain extent the foundation also of the history of a society and a civilization that were dis- appearing. These volumes contain also copies of a great number of " Cedulas Reales," letters from important personages, such as Cortes, Alvarado, and others. A small part of these Acts have been printed in the Boletin Municipal de Mexico, but they consist merely of extracts, and have been edited in such a careless manner, and issued in such a small number of copies, that these volumes lose in consequence nothing either in value or importance. The printed title which was used for the first and second volumes must have been taken from an edition in facsimile of MEXICO : HISTORY AND TOPOGRAPHY. 2905 part of the text prepared by Ygnacio Rayon. On that of Vol. II, Ramirez altered in writing the name of Rayon to that of Orozco ; he did not make a similar change on the title of Vol. I, although that volume is, without doubt, entirely in his own handwriting. 29069 Barcexa (J. ]\I.

Many of them are excessively rare, as, in consequence of the dis- turbed state of the political atmosphere in which he lived, they were found obnoxious to many successive holders of power. Bustamante was the son of a Spaniard, but, more Mexican than the Mexicans themselves, he talked of " our three hundred years' captivity and sufferings," cursing the nation from which he derived his blood and the language that he used with such fiery energy. 29072 BUSTAMANTE, Obras : anotlier set, consisting of the volumes above numbered I-XVII, XXVI, XXVII, XXVIII (a few numbers wanting in this volume), XXIX-XXXIX (including the Mexico poi' dentro y fuera separately), and XLIV ; together 32 vols. 8vo. of tvhich 20 vols, are hound in 19, /;/. morocco, uniform ; and 12 are in various states, £20.

Davila Padilla was born in Mexico in 1662, and had the fullest opportunities of obtaining authentic information. He is the earliest writer who mentions the establishment of Printing in the IS'ew World, and the fact that the Scala Cceli of St. Joaunes Climacus translated by his namesake Juan de Estrada from the Latin version, was entiiled to the distinction of being the first book printed in America (about 1535-6). 29084 DiARiO de los Debates,) tercer Congresso constitucional de la Union, Sesiones de 1862 y 1863, 2 vols, in 1, sm. folio, hf. morocco, 5s Mexico, 1873 29085 Edwards (Milne) Rechercbes Zoologiques, 3nie partie.

In 1701 he entered the order of Jesuits, and in 1706 was sent by his Superior to Mexico, where he remained during four years, and then returned to Europe. Having concluded his business in Rome he returned to Madrid, with the intention of sailing for the Philippines by way of Mexico. Here, at Madrid, the original work ends with December, 1711. 1 he continuous narrative breaks off, and we hear no more of his voyages. But there is annexed, a " Relacion sucinta de las propriedades de los Indies Mexicanos, que en el discurso de catorze afios, a observado en ellos el Ho, Phelipe Frutos." This was written in or after the year 1720, which makes it probhtile that he reached Mexico in 1712, and went no farther. 29091 Galvan Rivera (M.)

The Marquis de Sonjra. better known as Don Jose de Galvez, is said by Aleman to have created the " Board of Trade " Ministry in Mi-xico, and the historian goes even so far as to attribute all the material and commercial prosperity of the country to tliut statesoran. The Emperor Maximilian cau.-^ed twenty copies of this Informe to be printed in 1866. In the folio copy of 1783, the following additional documents follow the Informe General: — Ynforme y plan de Yntendencias que conviene establecer en las provincias de este reyno de Nneva Espana.

Acabose d' iynprvmir e fin d'l aiio d' mil y quinietos y quarenta y seys ailos (1546) Very rare : one of the earliest specimens of Mexican typography. Title contains a woodcut of a bishop preaching, over the text, and surrounded by a border. The signatures are a=i in eights, including title, and fe which has only 4 11. (making 76 11.). The " Doctrina" finishes on verso of It 4, on the lower portion of which we have the following colophon : Lav^ Deo. A Gloria y alahaqa de dios nro seiior y de su mendita madre fue impressa esta doctrina catholica en mexico por mndado del reiieredissimo seiior don fray Jud Cumar- raga : priniero ohispo de la misma ciudad : pa utilidad comun. Especial delos indios : porque por ella sean cathetizados los q se ouiere de baptizar : y ensenados los haptizados. Then follows I, which commences as follows : — " Prologo Proemio alos amados hermanos lectores xpianos enel suplemeto o adiciones del catliecismo que quiere dezir enseiiamiento del christiano." The signatures of the " Prologo " run from I to n in eights, thus forming 24 11. ; n 8 is occupied with the colophon to the whole book which we reprint above. This edition is evidently the one (with the "Prologo'' and final colophon wanting) described by Harrisse in his Additions to the Bib. Vet. Amer. pp. 131-2, from the copy in the BiMioteca Provincial of Toledo, which he places under the year 1.540. As will be seen, on comparing his description with the present, the first colophon on verso of fe 4 agrees word for word with that given by him ; the number of leaves is the same, and so also is the number of chapters into which the work is divided, but the title is totally different. There can be no doubt that the title in the present copy is the right one, as the text commences on its verso, the last word being divided and continued correctly on the next page. It seems therefore to follow that if Harrisse has copied the title of the copy in the Provincial Library of Toledo correctly, either that two different titles were issued with the same book, or that an earlier edition without the " Prologo " and second colophon was issued with title as given by him. The title and second colophon of the present edition are correctly given by Harrisse, Bib. Amer. Vetust. p. 419, though his collation (60 unnumbered leaves) is incorrect, but it is evident that the copy he there describes had not the " Prologo." I sold the Ramirez copy in 1880 for £65 ; the Maximilian (Fischer) copy fetched £41 ; the Andrade copy 485 thai.

The work forms a glorious monument of statesmanship ; and it may be conjectured that if the Spaniards had always formed their conduct according to these Memorias, they would never have lost their colonies in the New World. The Memorias extend from 1614 to 1796. 29341 MERCURIC PERUANO de Historia, Literattira, y Noticias publicas que da a luz la Sociedad Academica de A mantes de Lima, A perfect set, 12 vols, small 4to.

Thorpe, in one of his Catiilogues, states that a gentleman had assured him he could meet with but one copy in his travels through Spain, for which he was asked upwai'ds of £30. It is generally found defective, and copies yary to a considerable degree. The second copy described above is no exception to this rule ; it wants, besides Vol. V, Nos. 33.3,4, in Vol. IX, which are frequently absent. Some Nos. have been omitted, while the pagination remains correct : and sometimes there are two with the same No., although the text runs on correctly. The last pjirt of Vol. XI is number 382, yet the first of Vol. XII receives the number 573, from which the numeration proceeds to the end (No. 611), although nothing is deficient. The periodical seems to have been produced under great difficulties and discouragements ; it was suppressed by the Spanish govern- ment, as the enlightened opinions which the French Revolution had first set afloat were winning popularity amongst the educated youths of Spanish Peru. There is a sort of indignant bitterness in the title of the last volume, which is stated to be " dado a luz por uno de los individuos de la Sociedad." 29344 MICHELENA t ROJAS (F.)

The entire stock has lain perdxi, since the book was printed, and from whatever cause (probably the fault of the Venezuelan Government), no copies appear to have gcme into circulation. The author presented a copy to the English Geographica.1 Society in 1867, and Dr. Petermann was at the same time made aware of its existence, but no notice was taken of the book either in the Reviews or Yearly Addresses. Consequently it may be said to be now for the first time actually published. This " Exploracion Oficial " is a work of original and valuable research, adding largely to our knowledge of the vast regions which lie about the Equator in South America. The author was sent out by his Government to discover the resources and capabilities of those largely watered but little known countries, and to trace the means of utilizing for commerce the network of rivers which no cartographer had laid down with exactitude. He triumphed TIERRA FIRME, PERU, CHILE. 2941 over obstacles of every kind, and has succeeded not only in correcting aud angmenting to a very high degree the description previously given by Buniboldt and others, but in proving that (in spite of its situation) the climate is temperate and the rich soil fit for cultivation, while the river-system aifords unexampled facilities for the promotion of commercial enterprise. The Orinoco and the Amazon will yet play a great part in the development of population and wealth in the lands that lie between and about them, and every addition to our statistical and geographical knowledge of those rivers, their affluents, and their borders, is of importance.

BIRDS of AMERICA, the genuine original edition, 4 vols, double elephant folio, 435 superbly coloured plates, the Birds the full size of life, half bd. morocco, early subscribers' copy, remarkably fine, clean and large, £270. 1827-38 The above is a copy of the first issue, which may be distinguished from the second by the numbering of the plates of the Ji/rst volume being in Arabic numerals. Many of the large plates having become worn, the coppers engraved by Lizars were retouched by Havell for a second issue ; the work of the latter being inferior to that of the former engraver. Collation : Titles to each volume, 4 leaves ; Plates 1 to 435. Plate 254 is erroneously numbered 256, and plate 260 is numbered 240, nos. 256 and 240 being thus repeated. With the exception of plates I-X and XV, all the plates in the first volume are numbered in Arabic numerals ; the numbering of the plates in the other three volumes is in Koman numerals. 29442 AUDUBON'S BIRDS of AMERICA, 7 vols. impl. octavo, 500 COLOURED plates, with Text, half calf, rare, £40.

Audubon, 7 vols. impl. 8vo. 500 coloured plates, half morocco, £35. New Yorh, 1861 The plates in this issue are printed with a tinted background. In these seven volumes are contained faithful reductions of all the plates of the larger edition, each plate being bound in juxtaposition to its explanatory letterpress, thus rendering the labours of this eminent ornithologist easily accessible to students. Andnbon was the son of a Frenchman, but was by birth an American. His indefatigable pursuit of knowledge, bis enthusiastic devotion to the science of ornithology, his keenness of insight, have rendered his name for ever famous as that of one of the greatest naturalists the world has seen. With Bnffon, Cuvier, and Owen, he occupies a front rank from which no later investigator can dethrone him ; and at the same time he holds a position of no <^mall importance as one of the literary celebrities of the New World.

The Letters in this collection may be recapitulated thus : — Adams (John Quincy) American Minister at various Courts of Europe, and afterivards President, 57 Letters, written from the Hague, Berlin, Toplitz, St. Petersburg, Ghent, ranging from August, 1796 to November, 1814. Adams (Thomas B.) brother of John Quincy, 25 Letters — the first nine being from the Hague or Berlin, 1796-1798, the rest from Quincy or Philadelphia, 1729-1801. King (Rufus) American Minister in London, 52 Letters, admirably expressive of the character of a man of the highest order, ranging from October, 1796 to April, 1803.

The calm philosophical observations of the two Adamses, concerning home and foreign politics, the sedate elegance of their language ; the vigorous and incisive style of Rufus King, well suited to the boldness and sagacity of his intellect ; the business-like lucidity and straightforwardness of Murray's letters ; combined with the nature of the subjects on which they treat and the mighty changes which were revolutionizing the face of the world in their time, promise a banquet of the finest intellectual enjoyment to any one who shall study the correspondence which Mr. Pitcairn so carefully preserved. 29483 Bartlett (J.

It is the 6rst book published by Increase Mather, and is wanting in most American libraries. Its great importance appears from the fact that the future salvation of the twelve tribes is demonstrated. The Epistle to the Reader, signed by John Davenport, New Haven, 1667, dwells on the delightfulncss of Christian life, when (as in New England) all the Christians love one another. The Quakers and the poor old women called witches had ample experience of this brotherly love from the Mathers and their tribe. 29599 An Essay for Recording of Illustrious Providences, an account of many remarkable and very memorable events which have happened, especially in New England, 12mo. title and a few leaves mended, green morocco extra, gilt edges, and broad dentelle gold borders on the sides, very rare, £12.

John Mein, an enterprising Scotchman, who had established a good miscellaneous business in Boston as printer, stationer, and bookseller, declined to sign the non-importation agreement, and was consequently ' posted ' by name in the Papers by the ' Well Disposed.' To show the trickery of the well-disposed merchants, Mein printed here the names of the ' Well Disposed,' with the full manifests of many ships arriving. These lists give the names of the hypocritiLal consignees, and are now valuable sources of information as to the state of the Colony and its trade and traders." 29619 Memorandums respecting the unprecedented treatment which the Array have met with respecting Plunder taken after a siege, and of which plunder the Navy serving with the Army divided their more than ample share, now fourteen years since, 8vo. sd. 3s 6fZ 1794 29620 Mills (Robert) Statistics of South Carolina, including the Natural, Civil, and Military History, 8vo. map, Ids. 7s Charleston, 1826 29621 Moore (G.

The first two parts of the volume are all about the country, its productions, an.! the natives. The third part relates his squabbles with the Puritans of New Plymouth, who accused him of all sorts of profanity and vice, and sent him back a prisoner to Old England. Little notice was taken of the matter at home, and he returned again, after the date of this book, " several times," as N^al says, " and at last ended his miserable life at Pascatauqua." In the account of these transactions, Morton speaks of himself as " Mine Host of Ma-re-mount." Ben Jonson wrote a satirical poem upon his adversaries, which is printed here on pp. 146-149. The power of his enemies was no doubt sufficient to account for the printing of the book at Amsterdam, and its singular rarity. 26925 Neal (D.)

Through the works of Eliot, and the publication of his Eleven tracts (here fully described), the wants of the North American Indians became known in England. The activity of the N. E.

It begins with a general description of America, and in the account of Virginia divides it into three regions: New Sweden, New England, and New Netherland. One plate depicts the Falls of Niagara. The work includes 32 pp. of Vocabularies. Campanius does not omit to mention the old Norse discovery of America. He was grandson of John Campanius, who translated Luther's Catechism into Virginian. The separate plates consist of three pictures : 1 , View of Niagara ; 2, Meeting of Penn and the Indians ; 3, group of three savages, designed hy P. Lindstrom, 1655; and of four maps : 1, a general map of America ; 2, one of Nova Suecia, after Nic. Visscher ; 3, one of English America ; and 4, one of Nova Suecia designed in 16.54-55 by Lindstrom.

There was no copy in - the magnificent library of Mr. Brinley, nor has the book appeared in any of the sales for a great number of years. The book is indeed so rare that the reprint made for the Massa- chusetts Historical Society was done from the transcript of a transcript, not quite perfect ; although it was completed in a later volume on the discovery of the only one known to be existent in America. Mourt's Relation ought to be the foundation or key-stone of every Boston library. The name of Mourt (or Morton, as has been suggested) is simply that of an editor. The Relation " writ by the severall actors themselves, after their plain and rude manner," is in seven separate narratives, only the last two of which are signed, one by E. W., the other by R. C. (Winslow and Cushman). They are preceded by " Certaine useful Advertisements " sent to the pilgrims at their setting out, signed by 1. R. ; and the two preliminary leaves which follow the title are " To his much respected Friend Mr. I. P." signed by R. G., and " To the Reader," signed by G. Mourt — the only place where this name apjiears. The doughty deeds of Captain Miles Standish were fiist made known bv fliis Relation. NEW ENGLAND AND VIRGINIA. 2977 29682*MouRT (G.)

Londini, Geor. Bishop, 1605 Excessively rare. The oldest book in this catalogue, and, with the exception of Gosnold's Voyage (1602), the earliest voyage by Englishmen to the lands of New England. Conse- quently it is a work that deserves venei-ation in the two or three American libraries in which it is found, and one that must arouse envy in all the others. The discovery of the eastern shores of New England by Gosnold and Waymouth ( — for the exploration of Cabot was of uncertain character and had no result — ) like the earlier discovery on the western shore of New Albion (Upper California) by Sir Francis Drake, was a momentous event in the history of the United States. After those pioneers. Captain John Smith followed, then came the Pilgrim fathers, and finally arose the great Republic which has realized the magnificent idea that prompted the two names of New Albion and New England, and has united the eastern and western territories in one magnificent whole.

The Rev. Wilham Symonds edited Smith's " Map," and added the second part by combining the manuscript relations of Dr. Russell, Thomas Studley, Anas Todkill, Jeffra Abbot, Richard Wiefin, Will Prettiplace, I^athaniel Powell, Richard Pots, and others of the colonists. It is a circumstance of extraordinary rarity to find the genuine map in this book. It is the original impression of the same plate that was afterwards used for Smith's General History of Virginia and Purchas' Pilgrims, but in the former instance, the reference " Smith, 41 " was added in the right- hand bottom corner, and in the latter, the reference " 1690 " super-added in the upper left-hand corner. 29715 Smith's Map of Virginia, 2 parts in 1 vol. sm. 4to. pp. 35-39 of the first part missing, the map in facsimile, calf £30. 1612 NEW ENGLAND AND VIRGINIA. 2981 29716 SMITH (J.)

N"o map was issued with this first edition, nor yet with the second, hut Farrer s MS. design was engraved with slight alterations in 1651, for issue with the third edition in that year. The distor- tion of geographical truth in the map, taken in connection with the MS. notes (in which the writer complains bitterly that Williams had omitted a good deal of the original matter, so as to serve the interests of the new Carolanians rather than those of the old Virginians), shows that one powerful idea in Mr. Farrer's mind was to unite New Albion (California) with Vir- ginia. In fact, he says that a small expedition would be able to 2992 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. mai'ch in eight, ten, or fourteen days from the Virginian settle- monts to New Albion, by which he meant the New Albion (Upper California) of Sir Francis Drake (1578) on the Pacific coast.

The dedication to Colbert is dated from the " Ville des Trois Rivieres," where the author was governor for the King of France. He was one of the oldest inhabitants of New France, and must have gone out with Champlain very early in the century. No one has given a fuller and more exact description, from actual life, of the manners and customs of various tribes of Red Indians. But the work is so rare that even Mr. Field, in his special bibliography, does not mention it. Boucher makes the following interesting statement concerning the colonists of New England. " The Knglish, our neighbours, expended at the beginning a heavy outlay on their settlements : tlaey threw into them a considerable number of immigrants, and at present we may reckon that they have fifty thousand men who carry arms : it is a marvel to behold their territories now : everything may be found there which can be had in Europe, and cheaper by half. They build a quantity of ships of all sorts ; they make good use of the iron mines ; they have handsome towns, with postal and transport services between them ; gentlemen's carriages as in France : those who speculated originally now find their profits coming in.

Hennepin was persecuted, and has been severely criticized, chiefly on account of his opposition to the Jesuits, and because he counselled William III (in whose dominions he had sought for the freedom and safety which he could not find in France) to send out missionaries to the New World. His enemies considered such advice from a monk as heretical and detestable ; while we are led by it to admire Hennepin, who had no bigoted horror for other sects than his own. 29834 A New Discovery of a vast country in America, extending above four thousand miles between New France and New Mexico . . . the manners, customs, and languages of the several native Indians . . with a Continuation giving an account of the attempts of the Sieur de la Salle . . to which is added.

California., 1737 This is the original autograph diary kept by William Gordon, one of the Jesuit Missionaries employed in the conver- sion of the Indians. Although his name does not appear CALIFORNIA; NORTH-WEST, NORTHWEST. 3001 anywhere, and there is a leaf wanting at each end of the book, we know from comparing the text with certain statements of Clavigero that the writer was the Hispano- Scottish Jesuit William Gordon. The diary serves admirably as a continuation of Venegas, whose account of the Mission at La Paz breaks off with the retreat of Gordon, after the mai'tyrdom of Tamaral and Carranco. The work is divided into 32-i paragraphs, of which the first two and part of the third are wanting. The author gives at the beginning an outline of the establishment of the first Missions in Lower California in 16'J7, a description of the several nations which inhabited the Peninsula, with a sketch of their habits, customs, and religion. The author does not tell us what year he came to California, but in 1734 we find him already charged with the Misiones de Nuestra Senora del Pilar. The stirring events between 1734 and 1737 are described with a singleness of purpose and a simplicity of manner beyond all description, reminding the reader of Defoe's magical nar- rative. The character of the Indians, the privations of the Mis- sionaries, the hardships of their daily life, their conflicts with the civil and military authorities, are all brought before the reader in the most vivid and at the same time most unpreten- tious manner. The volume is certainly a very charming one, and not only merits publication, but even an English translation would probably be popular in California. 29874 Greenhow (R.)

Mexico, about 1780-85 A most important body of MSS. Documents, which ought to be secured by an American library. This transcript, or rather these transcripts, of the original writings, were made by and for the historian Manuel de la Vega for incorporation in the archives of the Franciscan convent of ^Mexico. The first and the fourth parts only appear to have been printed (in 1857) in the Documentos historicos Mejicanos, but not the remainder ; and these volumes may be looked upon as holding the rank of original codices of great importance to the Californian student.

Some passages on p. 220 make it appear that the writer was identical with the Jesuit Jose Ortcjja who published a Cora Dictionary at Mexico in 1732 ; but the prologue shows that he incorporated in a continuous narrative the reports of others besides himself. He laboured for thirty years in Lower California, and in the regions between the Colorado and the Gila rivers ; and on page 242 we learn that he had the use of the MS. papers of Eusebio Kino, in which '' estan coordenados sus viajes, empressas, y dcscubrimieutos." The account which he gives of Kino's life and labours contains references to monumental remains of earlier inhabitants in those regions ; and is the chief source of biographical information concerning that distinguished geographer. It comprises about 100 pages, and forms one of the three libros into which the book is divided. The author enlarges upon purely historical events and anthropological facts to a greater degree than most theological writers. 29886 PALOU (Francisco) Relacion historica de la Vida y apostolicas tareas del Padre Fray Junipero Serra, y de las Misiones que fundd en la California Septentrional, y nuevos establecimientos de Monterey, sm. 4to. no map or poi'trait, vellum., £2. 10s Mexico, F. de Zunifja, 1787 29887 the same, sm. 4to. complete with tlierare map of California and portrait, hound, £6. 10s 1787 This is not merely a religious biography, but a most interesting account of the Travels of this zealous Missionary and his companions in Mexico and California.

In the preface he states that "on a offert, durant des annees, 1200 fr. d'un exemplaire de I'Histoire, sans pouvoir s'en procurer un seul."

Queretaro, about 1580 This is undoubtedly a volume of considerable interest and importance. The author was unknown to Beristain and other special bibliographers, and his name is not recorded by Siguenza and Boturini. Yet he must have been a scholar of high mark, when we consider that this is the first Grammar ever composed of the difficult Otomi language, in spite of which fact it is an elaborate and extensive treatise. Pedro de Carceres or Caceres may perhaps be sought for in some history of the Franciscan missions ; he describes his work very modestly as compiled from the scraps of the v.rll-deserving Fathers and his own mite. 3028 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE.

The first of the two treatises is one of the bitterest and severest critiques that have ever been written, and exposes the weakness and defectiveness of Neve's Grammar. Both the treatises contain not only valuable information on the language of the inhabitants of the Mexican Valley before the immigration of the Toltecs and the rise of the Mexicans — still largely in use among the natives— but also interesting historical notices. 30104 GAONA (Juan) I.

Pimentel, who examined this MS., declared that the language was Matzahua (there being no specification in the book itself of the speech it refers to), and the book was accordingly so lettered. Bat the Mexican scholar Icazbalceta inclined to the belief that it is Otomi, and a comparison of the text of the Lord's Prayer, which is given by Bancroft in both those tongues, makes it almost indisputable that the vocabulary here is Otomi, not JIazahua. Its interest and value are in any case yery great. The state and condition of the MS. leave nothing to desire.

IL A collection of iSermons and religious instructions on different subjects, occupying one hundred and ninety leaves, of which sixteen are blank leaves. On one of the blank leaves we read 'al Pe.

Mexico, 1540 On the first page it has the following title in the hand- Tvriting of Father Sahagun, the lower half of which is wanting : — Siguense unos sermones de dominicas y de sanctos en lengua Mexicana : no traduzidos de sermonario alguno sine compuestos nuevamente a la medida de la capacidad de los Indios : breves en materia y en lenguage congruo venusto y llano facil de entender para todos los que le oyeren altos y baxos prineipales y macegolas, hombres y mugeres.

El autor , los somete a la correccion de la madre sancta Yglesia romana con todas las otras obras que en esta lengua Mexicana a compuesto. fray bnardio. de Sahagun. Some leaves are wanting at the beginning, and there are two loose leaves. Then comes the following note in the handwriting of Father Sahagun : — Siguense unos sermones breves en la lengua Mexicana, el autor de ellos los somete a la correccion de la madre sancta Yglesia, c5 todas las demas obras suyas, son para todo el ano de dominicas y Sanctos ; no estan coi'regidos : fray bnardio. Sahagun. On folio 88, the dominical sermons conclude with another note in Mexican in Father Sahagun's handwriting, and signed by him ; then follows a blank leaf, and on the following com- mences a " Sanctoral" on six leaves, the end wanting. The differences in the writing between the body of the book and the corrections made in 1563, are easily explained by the 23 years' interval. When he wrote the work first he was only about 45 years of age ; he was not far from seventy when he began to make his additions and corrections. This MS. is undoubtedly one of the most curious and interesting volumes in the Mexican language ever offered for sale. In his know ledge of the Aztec language and literature, Sahagun has prolably never had an 206 3036 BERNARD QUARITCH'S GENERAL CATALOGUE. equal. The historical work which he wrote concerning the Mexican empire, and which has been published by Bustamante, brought down upon him the abuse of his fellows, both lay and clerical, for aiding, as they said, to perpetuate the idolatry of the nation. 30169 SAHAGUN. Exercicios quotidianos en lengua Mexicana, sm. 4to. MS. plainly written^ 86 pp. sd. £18. Mexico^ 1574 — transcribed Sec. XVII The MS. begins thus : — " Comienza un exercicio en lengua Mexicana, sacado del sancto Evangelic y distribuido por todos los dias de la semana contiene meditaciones devotas muy prove- chosas para cualquier xpiano que se quiere llegar a Dios." At the end, there is the inscription : " Este exercicio halle entre los yndios, no se quien le hizo ni quien se le dio tenia muchas faltas e incongruidades mas con verdad se puede dezir que se hizo de nuevo que no que se emendo. Este afio de 1674, fray Bernardino de Sahagun." The MS. is in perfect preservation, and the handwriting is clear and legible — in fact, too boldly written to be the autograph of Sahagun. This is probably identical with the single MS. of the work which is mentioned by Beristain as being in his time in the College of St. Gregory at Mexico, and which he seems to have considered the original, just as Ramirez believed this to be. 30170 SAHAGUN.

The American authorities are, however, agreed that it was written by Edward Johnson. It has sometimes passed under the name of Gorges, from the fact that it was embodied four years later in " American painted to the Life . . by Ferdinando Gorges." 30241 CHROXICOX XUREMBERGEXSE, anctore Hartmanno Schedel cum Supplemento " De Sarmatia," royal folio, first EDITION, 2 world-maps and about 2000 spirited looodcuts, by Michel Wolgemnth, Master of Albert Durer, and by Wilhelm Fleydenwiirf, bds. £14. 10s Nurembergce, A. Koberger, 1493 Editio Princeps. The book has a kind of claim to be reckoned amongst Americana, namely because it records a discovery of certain savages which has been taken to indicate some transatlantic exploit of Martin Behaim. It is a volume of extraordinary interest, embellished with upwards nf 2250 woodcut engravings of the principal events, characters, and cities, described in the work, executed in a spirited style by the ingenious artists Michael Wolgemuth and "William PleydenwurfF, as the last colophon in the work informs us. This Colophon is given at length in the Bibliotheca Spenceriana, where will be found the fullest and liveliest description of the volume, with faint facsimiles of a few of the Cuts. A colophon denotes Hart- mann Schedel as the author or editor. The present copies are perfect with the unnumbered leaves which ai"e frequently wanting. One of tlie most striking pictures in the volume is on folio 264 (Latin edition), a grotesque Dance of Death, containing five very large figures. 30242 VYATERTOX (Charles) Wanderings in South America, the north west of the United States, and the Antilles, 1812-24, Aito. frontis- piece, hf. calf, 12s 1825 30243 HERIOT (George) Travels through the Canadas . . with an account of the productions, commerce, and inhabitants of those provinces, and a comparative view of the manners and customs of several of the Indian nations of Xorth and South America, stout 4:to.map and numerous pretty plates, hf. bd. £2. 16s 1807 30244 Parry's (W.

James was sent by the King to explore the North- west Passage, and underwent excessive hardship and difficulties in that attempt during the years 1631-32. He fell in with Fox (author of the " North "West Fox ") during his voyage. Most copies of the map have the portrait of Captain James in facsimile. In the above it is the genuine original. Critics frequently censure the gallant explorer for the littleness of geographical information contained in his book, but the map is assuredly free from any such blame-worthiness, for it contains a singularly correct delineation of the high latitudes in which Hudson, BaiBn, James, and Fox pursued their search for the Noi'th West passage. 30250 THOMAS (Isaiah) History of Printing in America, with a biography of Printers, and an account of Newspapers, to which is prefixed a concise view of the discovery and progress of the art in other parts of tlie world, 2 vols. 8vo. plates^ bds. uncut, £6.

We know now that the ancient level of the city is covered up hy debris to a depth, in some cases, of over a hundred feet ; and that the det^cl•iptions given by Josephus are not exaggerateil, because the walls of the Temple Mount are now proved to have been the largest and grandest of any buildings in the ancient ■world. The rock levels recovered in the course of these excavations have enabled us to construct with absolute certainty, save in a few places, the slopes of the hills on which the city was first built ; the site of Ophel and part of the old wall have been recovered and traced ; the great Bridges from the Temple to Mount Zion have been found ; the Tyropoen Valley has been entirely recovered, a cardinal fact in the Topography of the city : the foundation stones of the great wall have been examined : voussirs and remains of old arches have been found ; and many other facts of the greatest importance ascertained in the reconstruction of the ancient city, 30565 Tristram (H.
