Bernal Díaz's account bears all the marks of authenticity, and is accompanied with such pleasant naïveté, with such interesting details, with such amusing vanity, and yet so pardonable in an old soldier who had been, as he boasts, in a hundred and nineteen battles, as renders his book one of the most singular that is to be found in any language.-Dr. Robertson.

The Abipones have been in one thing fortunate above all other savages, for the history of their manners and fortunes by Martin Dobrizhoffer, a German Jesuit, who devoted the prime of his years to the task of converting them, and in old age, after the extinction of his order, found consolation in recording the knowledge which he had so painfully acquired and the labours which had been so miserably frustrated, is, of all books relating to savage life, the most curious, and, in every respect, the most interesting.-Southey's Hist. of the Brazils.

"Eden was the first Englishman who undertook to present, in a collected form, the astonish-
ing results of that spirit of maritime enterprise which had been everywhere awakened by the
dlscovery of America. Nor was he a mere compiler. We are indebted to him for several original
voyages of great curiosity and value. He is not exempt from error; but in point of learning,
accuracy, and integrity, is certainly superior to Hakluyt, yet it is undoubted, that while the
name of the latter, like that of Vespucci, has become indelibly associated with the New World,
his predecessor is very little known."-Biddle's Memoir of Sebastian Cabot.
