PREFACE. 



1HIS Catalogue is derived from the books in the library 
and from two imperfect but not unfaithful lists of 
titles. It is largely indebted to the laborious altera 
tions, and to the attention, generously offered, of Mr. Cogs 
well, formerly of the Astor Library. Thanks are due to the 
unfailing kindness, the learning, and the counsels of Mr. Ezra 
Abbot, one of the librarians of Harvard University. Many 
suggestions from Mr. Henry Stevens, and some of the notes, 
should be acknowledged. The present form of the Catalogue, 
however, is due to the editor, Mr. Cutter, librarian of the 
Boston Athenseum, who has prepared the manuscript for and 
carried it through the press. 

The library of Mr. Sparks possesses valuable, quaint, and 
unique volumes. There are also many not always easily 
found, which correspond to his expressed intention to " own 
every book he might wish to use." For its " Historical MSS." 
it has long been known. These papers were collected with 
intuitive skill and increasing ability during various tours, un 
dertaken since 1819 for the purpose : first, in the thirteen 
original States ; often elsewhere in his own enlarged country ; 
three times in prolonged visits to Europe ; by means also of 
his extensive correspondence during the years 1819-1866. 
These letters are arranged in sixty large volumes, with a 
daily index. The Journals of the tours point out the deposits 
of many unknown treasures ; sketching scenes, characters, 
and incidents; thus preserving information, and reproduc 
ing reminiscences of a period far more remote. 

The Bound Historical Manuscripts, now the property of his 
son, with a conditional reversion to Harvard University, were 
at once placed within their own oaken cabinet, in the library

of the University. Mr. Sparks, himself disabled from the 
fruition of so much preparation, by an accident which never 
ceased to affect his right arm, felt every suffering alleviated in 
the gratification which he could afford to others. He used 
these treasures with a lavish and cheerful bounty which told 
nothing of the patient endurance of the daily disappointment 
he could not always conceal from his familiar friends. Their 
effects are already to be traced in the many useful works 
which acknowledge these sources of information ; perhaps, as 
has been said, in the more critical investigation, more enlarged 
interest, and more zealous research which have been stimulated 
in others. Through his foresight they must have an increas 
ing influence upon historical literature in the development 
of that Good he sought, of that Truth to which his life was 
devoted. , 

I have thought it well to add to the Catalogue a list of these 
papers, which the editor has been enabled to prepare by the 
kindness of the officers of the University Library. Though 
necessarily brief, it may serve as a guide till a more complete 
calendar shall be published.

NOTE. 



IN the preparation of this Catalogue all exaggeration in describ 
ing the condition and value of the volumes has been studiously 
avoided. The epithets scarce and rare have been sparingly used ; 
perhaps it would have been better to omit them altogether, since 
the collectors of American rarities may be supposed to know what 
books are rare, and the students of American history care more for 
the importance and authenticity than for the scarcity of the works 
they would buy ; moreover, experience soon teaches the latter that 
publications of the sixteenth century relating to America weigh 
against gold ; that American imprints of the seventeenth century 
require a long purse in their purchaser ; that books and pamphlets 
on our Revolution are not to be found in every bookstore, nor 
even in every library, historical or general ; and that many works 
relating to the early settlement of the West have excited an in 
terest in readers fatal to their preservation either at the West or 
the East. To those who know these facts, a slight examination of 
the Catalogue will show that some of the books are extremely 
rare, that a very large proportion of the library is uncommon, and 
that nearly the whole of it is of decided historical value. Mr. 
Sparks selected his books very carefully ; he had a keen eye for 
whatever could be of use to him in the great historical works 
which he performed or which he meditated ; and he had both the 
will and many opportunities for procuring what he needed ; in con 
sequence, his library has attractions for both the bibliomaniacs and 
the scholars, not that the two are always distinct classes. 

The Catalogues put into my hands, have been revised as carefully 
as circumstances would permit. I have not in general been able 
to compare the titles with the books, and have therefore been 
obliged to leave some things which appeared to me of doubtful 
accuracy. A few titles of books which may not now belong to 
the library have been inserted from Mr. Sparks s list; these 
are generally to be known by the absence of any description of 
the binding. The notes signed J. s. are generally copied from 
memoranda written by M. Sparks on the fly-leaves of the volumes 
to which they refer. c. A. C. 



The Works in this Library are almost without exception marked with the au 
tograph of Mr. Sparks. The following beautiful volumes constitute a nearly 
complete set of his works, prepared by himself for his sou. They have been 
generally, perhaps entirely, omitted from the catalogue.

Note by Mr. Sparks, from Henry Seymour, a relation of Ledyard. " He was 
above the middle stature, not tall, nor corpulent; athletic, firm, robust; 
light hair, aquiline nose, broad shoulders, and full chest." No work of Mr. 
Sparks was more a labor of love than this. To explore Africa, under the 



3 

auspices of the British African Society was his strongest wish, " pausing at 
Morocco, studying one year in Timbuctoo the manners, customs, institutions, 
trade," with other information, following " the Niger to its mouth, which is 
probably a large lake in the interior," thence to proceed to the Cape of 
Good Hope, Abyssinia, Egypt, or " other coasts. The African Society did 
not accept the proposition of the Harvard student.

This work has been overlooked in the collections of De Tocqueville s works 
in America. 

In 2716. View of Fort George, New York, 1763. 

ATLAS, by William G. Faden, Geographer to the King. 

In this important atlas the maps illustrate the War until the battle of York- 



town, Oct. 1781. The Table of Contents is a Manuscript. The N. E. Bound 
ary Line on the map of the British Colonies (1.777 is given), contrasts curi 
ously with the shrunken Line which with great indulgence marks the sub 
sequent concessions on the next map. 

MAP of the United States of North America, according to 
the Treaty. Engraved by Wm. Faden, 1783. 

Mr. Sparks speaks of it as " a curious map " published in London before the 
treaty was ratified. These maps were much consulted on the question of 
boundary in 1842. In the " N. A. Review," April 1843, Mr. Sparks says 
" Faden s map of 1785, is the earliest English authority produced in favor of 
British claims. A copy was brought over by Lord Ashburton. The Maine 
Commissioners called it a small one, of small pretensions. A map worthy of 
more consideration is that published 1783, by Faden. It is about two feet 
square, and the boundaries marked on it correspond with the greatest ex 
actness to the American construction of the Treaty. Faden points to the 
Province of Sagadahoc as a new concession." Mr. Sparks observes of him, 
" No man in England was more competent." " We are bound to regard this 
map as conclusive of English opinion at that date." It is thought that this 
map cannot easily be found in our public libraries. This copy was used in the 
discussions of 1842. Neither is common. 

The costly MS. of Homer and Alcedo were procured at an expense hardly 
exceeded by that incui-red for any of those now placed in Harvard Library. 

The Bound Historical Manuscripts, of which a List is attached to this Cata 
logue, should have been marked as those conditionally bequeathed to the 
Library in which they are now deposited. 

They are of course not included in any proposed sale. M. c. s.

Benzoni, a man of clear intellect and tenacious memory, according to his coun

German, and Fl-mish translations have become very rare. "The Italian s 
evidence respecting the famous and unfortunate province of Cum^na is pecul 
iarly valuable, as conveying a deep insight into the social condition of the 
Indian and Spai ish communities on that desolate coast, at the most crucial 
period of its existence." Admiral Smyth.

8 London, by Richardson fy Urquhart, 1780 

The very considerable additions to this third edition are indicated in the table of 
contents. This is no doubt an interesting and important collection of Papers, 
but the compiler has managed to twist them to conform to his own views. The 
work was highly commended by the Monthly Review." But Mr. Sparks has 
written on the fly-leaf the following more just estimate of it: u lt is the prin 
cipal object of this collection of papers to attack and injure the characters of 
Sir William Howe, Lord Howe, and General Burgoyne. Facts are every 



where distorted, opinions are perverted by prejudice and a vindictive spirit, 

" ofte " 



every 

e and a vindictive 
the representations are extravagant and often false."

Idiomas y Noticia de sti Vida y Patria, anos en que vivieron 
y Obras que escribieron. Compuesta por el Mariscal de 
Campo D. Antonio de ALCEDO, Gobernado de la Plaza de

" Copied in 1843 from the original manuscript in the possession of Mr. 0. Kich 
of London. The original was found by him in Madrid. This volume con 
tains 1300 pages." j. s. It cannot "be necessary to dilate upon the im 
portance of this manuscript. It has never been published, nor has it been 
superseded by later publications. Moreover, the insertion of notices of the 
lives of the authors is a feature of the very highest value. 

1635a - BIBLIOTHECA AMERICANA, by Arthur HOMER 
D. D., Fellow of Mag. Coll., Oxford. Half turkey morocco. 
12 vols. 

" This work was intended for publication by the author, and he sent out 
printed proposals for that object. But it was never published. After his 
death, the manuscript was purchased by Sir Thomas Phillips of Middle Hill, 
Worcestershire, in whose possession I saw it in November, 1840. By his per 
mission the original manuscript was sent to London, where this copy was 
made for me in 1841." j. s. The work extends to 1600 pages, closely writ 
ten. With an autograph letter of the author to the Rev. Win. Bentley, of 
Salem, Mass., who furnished the author with valuable information, and whose 
knowledge about books relating to America was important to various 
European scholars, as evinced by his contributions to the collection of the 
Ebeling Library, now in the Library of Harvard College. This work, too, 
has never been superseded. It should be secured for some public library.

CHARLOTTE, N. C. Plan of the Route of the Enemy from Charlotte. Signed 
" Nelson fecit; non fecit, scripsit." 9xU. 12 Oct. 1780 

This route is marked with a dotted line between Charlotte and the Catawba River. 

FORT CONSTITUTION. Two very early sketches, probably sent in January, 1778, 
a discussion having arisen in favor of the site of West Point for a fort. It 
had been suggested by Gov. Clinton, was favored by Putnam, but opposed by 
Radiere, the engineer! Each 19x15. May, 1776 

On one of these Mr. Sparks has marked the site of West Point, then a blank ; the fort 
there was afterwards constructed under Kosciusko. On the other he has written, " See 
Lord Sterliug s Letter to Washington, June 1st, 1776. This Fort was destroyed by the 
British, Oct. 1777. 

FORT CONSTITUTION. Plan of Fort proposed on the East of Fort Constitution, 
by Isaac Nicoll. 12x13. Isaac Nicoll, 76 

Folded, as if sent by letter to Gen. Washington. 

FORT CUMBERLAND. " A sketch of the Situation of Fort Cumberland." 

12X13. July, 1758 

This is in the handwriting of Washington. It is his own sketch of his position. The 
Block House, and " New Store," which he considered so defenseless, are the only separate 
buildings. Will s Creek is marked, the road along its bank to the Fort indicated, and 
the " Road towds Fort Duquesne. On this road all prospect of victory depended. The 
influence of Washington, then 26, was used in vain, and Braddock s defeat followed. 
This is Washington s sketch of his dreary position where his judgment gave him little 
hope of success. 

FORT ISLAND, with the batteries on the banks of the Delaware, bv Major Henry. 

13X8|. 16 Oct. 1777 

Explanations in French and imperfect English. The shoals are marked "almost 
drouned," or " drouned in heigh tide." The author intimates that his " barbouillage," 
sketched on a gun-carriage, without rule, compass, or measure, is but an ^approxima 
tion, 1 interrupted by the bursting of two bombs, one of which carried away his " ecri- 
toire," the other furrowed the place where he sat. 

FORT MIFFLIN, by Lewis Henry. 15X19. Nov. 10, 1777 

" In Mudy iland." Represents the fortified banks of the Delaware, position of the 
ships, line of fire, Hog Island, including the confluence of the " Schuilkill " and Dela 
ware. Labelled by Washington " Mudd Island." This belongs to a very interesting 
series, made by one of the besieged, a brave officer, whose Journal was daily forwarded to 
Washington. 

FORT MIFFLIN, with twenty references in French and English. 

13xl6. November 10, 1777 

" Mudy iland, almost drouned in heigh tide." " The Engineer, author of this imperfect 
Draugh begg indulgence for it ; Considering that he has not paper, pen, rule, neither cir- 
cel, and being disturbed by good many Shells or cannon balls flying in the fort. Lewis 
Fleury." 

FORT MIFFLIN. Plan of attack, with ordnance, distances, "floating battery," 
and references. Nov. 1777 

It is directed to " his excellency Gen. Washington, head Quarter," and labelled by him 
"Mudd Island attack. Plan," near the Seal. By Mr. Sparks these three maps are 
labelled, " Plans of Fort Mifflin and of the Attack." 
FORT MONTGOMERY; a distant View on the Hudson. 
FORTS ON THE HUDSON. 

Plan of Hudson s River and Martlett s Rock, afterwards Fort Constitution, 
destroyed Oct. 1777. 31x13. 1776? 

In two similar sheets, both worn as by use. The first is a sketch with careful soundings 
of Hudson s River " at half tide " from Stony Point to Polypheme p Island. At Martlett s 
Rock, afterwards Fort Constitution, the "landing," the curtain fronting the river with 
14 mounted cannon, the wharf, store house, Block House, and Barracks " are marked. 
The opposite site of West Point is marked by a tree somewhat larger than cither. Burn s 
house is there, Moore s, Verplank s, the Points, Ferries, and Creeks, Tarrytown and 
Fort Montgomery, Antony s Nose, and Poop Lopes Kill. " By good information there ia 
a wagon road from Poop Lopes Kill to West Point." 

Haverstraw and Tappan Bay occupy the second and similar sheet. With " a 
Table of distances bv Computation, having no Instruments to ascertain the true 
bearings." 31x13. 1776?

" Drawn by request under the Inspection of the Commissioners of Fortifications in the 
Highlands, province of New York, by James Grinnell." 

Hudson s River through the Highlands, from " Hausbrook s to King s Ferry." A 
drawing dedicated to his Excellency George Clinton. By Thomas Macbin. 

13x46. 4 Jan. 1778 

Geo. Clinton was Brigadier General of Militia, was often in command near the Hudson, at 
Fort Montgomery and in various expeditions. Gen. Washington, Aug. 17, congratulates 
the Council of Safety at N. Y. on his appointment as Governor. His anxiety for New 
York rather outstripped the judgment of others, but if this was an error it was more 
than forgiven bv his fellow citizens. As a map, it is a curious sequel to the two previous 
sketches. Houses with one chimney have thickened ; among those with two is Robin 
son s. The tragedy of its hospitality softens even the memory of treason. Poop Lopes 
Kill has become Poplopens. Many country roads are distinctly drawn. West Point is 
well fortified, and from Antony s Nose one may see Fort Clinton in communication with 
Fort Montgomery. 

A Rough Map of Fort; Montgomery, showing the situation of Puplope s Point, 
Ground plan of the Buildings, &c., &c. G. T. P. Hudson s River. 16^x19 

Mr. Sparks has added, " For the explanation see Lord Sterling s letter to Washington, 
dated June 1, 1776." 

GERMANTOWN. Sketch of the Surprise of, by the American Forces commanded 
by Gen. Washington. 19x22. 12 March, 1784 

A fac-simile traced from a map by Lieut. J. Hills, 4th Oct. 177 published in London 
by William Faden, Geographer to the King. 

HOBKIHK S HILT, Battle. 19X13J. 1 Aug. 1783 

A fac-simile traced from a map by Col. Henry Vallancey, 25th April, 1731, and published 
by William Faden, London. 

PHILADELPHIA. " Wiew " of the Enemy s fleet. Sent to Washington by Lieut. 
Fleury, 19th Jan. 1778. 

The names of the English ships are written beneath each. The French spelling of the 
other names is quaint. 

QUKBEC. " Plan of Quebec." With the Americans besieging it. By Gen. Ar 
nold. Winter of 1778. 

" The siege of Quebec." J. s. Very carefully drawn. The river is encumbered with 
ice. The points of historical interest are numerous ; as the position of Head Quarters 
of his troops, " where the materials are carried to build our batteries, out of view of 
the town," the spot where Gen. Montgomery fell, and where " the dotted line shews the 
Rout the troops took under the General through deep snow without any path." 

STONY POINT. 16x13. 3 July, 1779 

Written " Stone Point." Labelled by Gen. Washington and marked by him, " From Gen. 
Heath, 3 July, 1779." " The importance of these two points to the enemy is too obvious 
to need explanation." Stony Point was taken 15th July by Wayne, and Washington 
says to Congress, " Lieut. Col. Fleury commanded one of the attacks." Therefore this 
is the map employed. 

STONY AND VEKPLANK S POINTS, and the works of the British army. 

Marked " North or Hudson River." Very carefully drawn in a similar position to that 
sent by Gen. Heath to Washington, and found with that in Mr. Sparks s Library. 

VIRGINIA. Virgmie, Maryland, en deux Feuilles, par Fry and Jefferson. 
Traduit, corrige, augmente. Two maps. Complete in themselves. 

28X19. Pam, 1777 

Col. Joshua Fry, who died a f , Will s Creek, was born in Somersetshire, England, educated 
in Oxford, a Professor of Mathematics in William and Mary s College, Virginia, afterwards 
a member of the House of Burgesses, and distinguished as a public man. Several of 
Washington s letters from Great Meadows, 1754, are addressed to him. With Mr. Peter 
Jefferson he ran the boundary line between Maryland and Virginia, and published " a 
map which h;is great repute," and is in fact very remarkable for that date. Mr. Sparks 
quotes, " He was a man of so clear a head, FO mild a temper, at>d so good a heart, that 
he never failed to gain th esteem of all who knew or were concerned with him." These 
" Feuilles," are " corriges, augmentes," from their English map of " the most Inhab 
itable parts of Virginia," then a comprehensive term, " engraved by T. Jeffries, London. 
1751." 

[The following are among the MSS. Maps of great interest, as being apparently 
copied, combined or made for Mr. Sparks: ] 

BATTLE FIELDS of the Revolution. Eleven Manuscript Plans. On cloth, folded. 

25x52 

Monmouth, Valley Forge, Yorktown, Barren Hill, Battle of Long Island, Forts Clinton 
and Montgomery, Fort Washington, White Plains, Trenton and Princeton, Brandywine, 
Germantown. These are all skillfully prepared for Mr. Sparks, and labelled by him, and 
form a complete and perfectly preserved set. 

BRANDYWINE, BATTLE OF. "In which the rebels were defeated." 

18ix22. Sept. 11, 1777 

From Werner. A beautiful colored drawing of the country and position around the 
Brandywine. " The Birmingham meeting-house is one mile from Osborne s Hill. Between 
these places the battle was fought on ascending ground." Journal of j. s. 



of Jared Sparks. 209 

FORT SCHUYLER, Siege of. Drawn by Lieut. Fleury. HX16J. Sept. 1777 
A copy made by G. II. Bowen for Mr. Sparks.

Labelled by Mr. Sparks. A slightly tinted sketch, highly finished, from an English original, 
with account of the Battle and elaborate lists of the two fleets, the commanders of each 
vessel, her ordnance and fate. A large English force is described, beside " thirty fighting 
vessels. " 

" TICONDEROGA." " Copied from the map used at Gen. St. Clair s Trial," and 
also used by Mr. Sparks. 13x19. 1777 

VALLEY FORGE. 13x23. 1777 

On the back an autograph note from Gen. Armstrong says : " This sketch was obtained 
through a son of Gen. Wayne, from William Davis, Esq., an intelligent and very remark 
able gentleman who resided within limits of the camp during its continuance there." 
The sketch was presented to Mr. Sparks by Gen. Armstrong, in 1833. 

VALLEY FOKGK. Brouillon et Plan de Camp de Vallee Forge. "Encampment 
at Valley Forge." Ilixl5|. 1777 

A sketch d elicately executed for Mr. Sparks. The position of some redoubts in this map 
is believed to have been altered at General Lafayette s suggestion. Lafayette rode with 
Washington when the work was dictated by him "as it seemed to me by magic, by 
an intuition of which I had no conception." 

YORKTOWN aii l GLOUCESTER, Va. A Plan of York Town and Gloucester, in the 
Province of Virginia. Fac-simile, beautifully traced from an actual Survey by 
Lieut. John Hills, with the attack and operations of the American army, on a 
scale of nearly 500 ft. to an inch. Published by Wm. Faden, Geographer to the 
King. 29fx23. London, 7 Oct. 1784 

The following nine maps, preserved in the same envelope, are those referred to 
in the following ext r act : 

" Lafayette has drawings of all the actions in which he was engaged in America, and also 

a map of the Virginia campaign He has allowed me to take them to Paris, 

rue Faubourg Parisienne, No. 36, from the MSS. at Lagrange, and they were all copied 
under the eye of Lafayette." j. s. 

BARRENHILL, Penn. Plan de la Retraite de Barrenhill en Pensilvanie. 

Gen. Lafayette was surrounded by the English and Hessians. Beautifully finished and 
colored. With fourteen notes on the battle. 

GLOUCESTER, Carte de 1 action de. 17^x21 J. 25 Nov. 1777 

Apparently by Legende. Colored and highly finished. The action was between Lafayette 
and the troops of Cornwallis. 

MoMMOUTH, Battle of. 14x29. June 28, 1778 

Beautifully finished. The title is in the handwriting of Mr. Sparks. The map in fine 
order. 

MONMOUTH, Battle of, between Gen. "Washington and Gen. Clinton, of the Eng 
lish army. Legende. 16X1!). 28 June, 1778 

This French manuscript map is finely designed and executed. The story of the battle is 
well indicated, beginning with the first batteries of Gens. Lafayette and Green, and Lord 
Sterling. Colored, with 24 references. 

MONMOUTH, Plan de 1 aft aire de. Legende. 28 June, 1778 

A map similar in notes and finish, but not the same. Slightly tinted. Apparently

14x20. Aug. 9-31, 1778 

From the 9th to the 30th nnd 31st of August, when the Americans retreated. Two beautifully 
finished and very interesting maps of Rhode Island; the hills of the Island, the private 
estates, the residence of Bishop Berkeley, -with other familiar sites, are delineated. Here, 
too, is Narra Ganset Bay, the posi ions of the hostile fleets of Count d Estaing, and Lord 
Howe, the intended point of junction of the French troops with Lafryerte, and the course 
of the subsequent retreat. Mr. Sparks has added the house where Gen. Prescott was 
captured by Barton, near which the skirmishing began. 26 references. 4-5 mile to 1 
inch. 

Carte des Positions occupees par les Troupes Ame ricaines apres leur Retraite 
de Rhode Island, le 30 Aout 1778. 15x21. Aug. 30, 1788 

Colored. AVith the positions of Gens. Lafayette and Sullivan at Tiverton and at Provi 
dence, Mount Hope, Seakonnet Point, Narra Gansett Beach (" Boston Neck"), and Point 
Judith.

[On account of the unique interest of the following letters relating to Lafayette, they will 
be offered separately.] 

AUTOGKAPH of LAFAYETTE, marked by Mr. Sparks, " Written in Prison." 
The letter, dated Magdebourg 15 Mars, 1793, is addressed to the Princess D H6nin. 
It contains 4 pages, and is a painful sketch of the sufferings and exhaustion of himself 
and his companions, and of the strong, drear, and unwholesome citadel itself. " I 
have," he says," neither ink, nor pen, nor paper. By a miracle J possess this sheet, and 
I -write with a tooth-pick. I know not how it will reach you, I entreat the most invio 
lable discretion, on which the fortune and the life of another depends." 
It is enclosed in a letter to General Washington, labelled in his handwriting, "From J. 
B. Church, Esq. ,16 Aug. 1793, ; beginning, " The Princess D Henin has confided 
to me the enclosed letter from our unfortunate friend Lafayette, with a request that 
I would convey it to your Excellency." Washington had already forwarded 200 
guineas. The Index to bis " Life and Writings " points out 14 letters from him on 
this subject. The son of Lafayette was cherished in his own home at Mount Vernon. 



[The following will also be separately sold.] 

Letter from Gen. Burgo.yne to Gen. Gates, Cambridge, Dec. 12, 1777,

These papers contain the official letters of Gov. Bernard, written from New Jer 
sey, until he left his residence at Perth Amboy, (sailing in the " Province sloop " 
sent from Boston, July, 1760,) after that from Massachusetts and from England. 
He was an earnest man, sufficiently so to suffer from the earnestness of others. 
He was not wholly insensible to the folly of the home government. While sub 
jecting all things to their interest, he was not unconscious of the interest of her 
colonies, nor unwilling to share any prospect for good which might open before 
them. He was active in the service of the " Indian College." It sheuld be 
not just here, nor there, but in the desirable location proposed for it "in our 
township." His suggestions were not unwise. He strongly urged the settle 
ment of the ten townships in Maine, having plans, not too philanthropical, of 
transplanting there the few hundred reluctant French, still left in New England. 
He was eager about the settlement east of the St. Croix, the river next to the 



Appendix. 

most westerly river which enters that Bay." These lands however, ranged east, 
north, and west of his own grant of Mount Desert, "an island well adapted" to 
the making of potash. Thus it is that the relics of her noble forests must now 
be sought amid precipices rarely scaled. The Governor forfeited his American 
estates. His son, however, remained on hand in Maine, and eventually shared 
with Mine, de Gregoire the unoccupied land of that silent Acadia. 

The Province of Massachusetts had long been a thorn in the side of Great 
Britain. She called for armies, and their success bore spoils exclusively to her 
own feet which passed all her expectations. She demanded profit. Why not 
with the same result? Certainly not an unprofitable, Massachusetts was not a 
comfortable colony. 

Insubordination, confusion, alarm, are the successive complaints of these interest 
ing letters. The Governor suggested troops. The letter arrived for a regiment 
to be ordered from Halifax. Such was the effort of England. Sir Francis writes : 
" Gen. Gage, who knows my situation, when death is publicly denounced against 
those who are concerned in bringing troops here, is so kind as to conceal the 
contents of the dispatches from me. One regiment will be enough for safety, 
but not enough to awe the town." June 25, 1768, he is " anxious about Castle 
William" (afterwards Fort Independence, now Fort Warren), but relieved by 
Com. Hood [see three Portraits, No. 2107.] There are now about the Castle [see 
engraving in Views and Designs] one 50-gun ship, two sloops of 16 guns each, and 
two armed cutters." "I have been much persuaded to go to the Castle when the 
troops shall arrive. I do not choose to show a want of resolution ; a short time 
will shew ivhether Boston is to belong to Great Britain or not. 11 Aug. 8, however, 
he writes from " Jamaica Farm." " I am charged with leaving the town when 
the troops arrived. At that time I resided at my house in Roxbury, four miles 
from Boston. I was at the Castle before the ships had all come to anchor, and 
every morning before ten o clock." (It seems he had not remembered to give 
the officers the expected dinner.) "We have determined to remove the troops 
to Boston." Aug. 20-23, the attempted " distribution of stamps " was followed 
by the attack on Hutchinson s house. The Governor now dates from Castle 
William, Sept. 18, 68, he suggests the prorogation of the Assembly to Salem, doubts 
not his own power, but requests an order from London. " I am wholly at the 
mercy of the mob. I have no place of safety to resort to but this fort, with a 
weak garrison. Here, I have got my wife and younger children." 

After his return to Pall Mall, however, there is still for the governor a "bitter 
disappointment." His son omitted to forward from America two casks, ordered 
by Lady Bernard, of cranberries. " The house full of guests, and no fruit ia 
season for pyes."

Sir Guy CARLETON, afterwards Lord Dorchester, was the last commander-in- 
chief of the British Army in America, during the American Revolution. The 
official papers of his predecessors, Sir William HOWE and Sir Henry CLINTON, 
came into his possession when he took the command. These, with his own pa 
pers, were taken by him to England at the time of the Peace. After his death 
they fell into the "hands of another person (Mr. Simmons, his secretary), who 
presented them to the Royal Institution in London. I examined them all in 
November, 1840, and made the following selection. The originals are comprised 
in more than forty volumes.

own spontaneity ; that he received no orders from government." Journal of

are the sources of the History of our Spanish possessions, and no account of 
these countries can be complete without them; and his family prefer to consider 
them a part of this costly collection, which the wise research of so many years 
has accumulated." s.

1 Among very many similar obligations, Mr. Sparks felt perhaps most deeply the 
many kindnesses of Lord Holland, the proofs of which did not cease with life, and 
his important services, in which Sir James Mackintosh took an almost equal share. 
Not less persevering was the interest of the Marquis of Lansdowne. Conspicuous 
among his good offices was the free offering of his family (the Shelburne) papers. 
Lord Brougham " insisted that in case I should find any difficulty in prosecuting 
my historical researches in London, I should apply to him, and he would aid me in 
anyway in his power." u Throughout the whole business, I have received from Lord 
Normanby the greatest courtesy." The politeness of Sir Heury Ellis, and of Sir 
Francis Palgrave; the friendly deeds of Colonel Aspinwall, and Mr. Petty Vaughan, 
"who was never weary of doing good acts," all were held in grateful remem 
brance. Our own ambassadors in France as in England, were true to the interests 
of American History. In Sir Robert Peel alone an obstacle was found. He was sup 
posed to be " influenced by opposition to the wishes of Mr. Huskisson," whose ac 
tive exertion was most obliging. A reference to Sir Geo. Murray overruled the 
difficulty. "I have the strongest reason to be gratified with the civilities and lan 
guage of the Earl of Aberdeen " in the Foreign Office, where was the Oswald Cor 
respondence, etc., etc. 

In the British State Paper Office were found the New York and New Jersey Papers, 
" which had hitherto been overlooked, and are very valuable." Hence were derived 
other important MSS., and also from the Royal Institution, the Privy Council Office 
the Board of Trade, the British Museum, the Office of Journals and Papers, and 
many private collections. All was so arranged that Mr. Sparks was enabled to have 
copying continued in Europe, and to send for manuscripts for himself, and to point 
them out to others, naming hall, shelf, and page, during the years which followed his 
return to America. 

At every point of his journey from Brussels through Bonn, Gottingen, Leipzig and 
Frankfort to Paris, he was fortunate. On his second visit, 1840, that he might pursue 
researches commenced in 1828, instructions were given for their continuation by the 
courtesy of M. Guizot, the Minister of Foreign Affairs at the French Court. This gen 
tleman published about that time his translation of Mr. Sparks s " Life and Writings 
of Washington," introduced by a noble essay on the subject. In 1828, after three 
and a half mouths of labor, all the work of Mr. Sparks was taken from him by 
order of M. Rayneval, when all his friends, M. Ferronays, La Fayette, le Comte 
d Hauterive, Hyde deNeuville Ferussac, and the Marquis de Marbois, whose literary 
labors he had shared, had left Paris. Not allowed to copy, he at once began an 
abridgment of these MSS. in his own hand. u But the historical materials will 
amply reward me for the labor. . . . Should no ill luck befall them, they will one 
day become a tribute of great value to the History of the United States." In these 



230 Appendix. 

archives he afterwards found the letter of Franklin to the Count de Vergennes, de 
scribing the map on which lie had marked with a STRONG RED LINE the boundary of the 
United State?, as fixed by the treaty, and here among the maps it was found, a 
map almost as much opposed to American claims as was the map presented to George 
III. at the same time by the English Commissioners to those of Great Britain. 
" My researches were continued in the archives till I had examined all the papers 
relating to the United States, and taken notes and extracts of all that I deemed im 
portant." The MSS. relating to France and Spain were considered of a very deli 
cate nature, and Mr. Sparks felt bound to restrain himself in selection where all, 
with this caution, were left to his discretion. He allowed none to be published, ex 
cept so far as they supplied historical facts and illustrations. From the War De 
partment there is a " curious " manuscript relating to Braddock s defeat, and the sub 
sequent war in America. The very valuable papers relating to La Salle, Tonty, and 
Joliet, are chiefly from the Marine Department; and the Bibliotheque Royale fur 
nished an original Journal of Iberville s voyages, a missionan s account of the Illinois 
Indians, 1693, " What Perricault saw during four years in Louisiana," and Bernard de 
la Harpe s voyage, 1718-22. Among other friends from whom he acknowledged much 
kind attention were M. Champollion, M. Jomard, M. Mignet, and M. de Tocque- 
ville, in a part of whose work on America he was pleasantly associated. "Paris 
is the spot where more knowledge can be obtained on a given subject than any 
other." The valuable information owed to Lafayette, was conveyed, not only in 
person at Paris, and in the daily intercourse at La Grange (Journal), but in abun 
dant manuscripts transmitted fully to America. u I can," said Lafayette, " conceive 
of no better employment for myself." A list of the French officers who served in 
America is derived from the kindness of Mr. Warden. The remarks are dictated 
by Lafayette. 

The Depot de la Guerre was rich in details of the military affairs of America, and 
of the Canadian wars, containing the correspondence of Montcalm and papers relat 
ing to the mission of the Baron de Kalb. But nowhere was found any paper sustain 
ing the charges on the affair of Jumonville. 

During the tour of 18 iO, Mr. Sparks continued to select with laborious care, in 
France as in England, many important works for the University at Cambridge, 
whose line collection was thus greatly enriched. 

NOTE ON HOMER S " BIJJLIOTHECA AMERICANA." (See Catalogue, No. 1635a.) 
A printed prospectus of this unpublished work Mr. Sparks found during his resi 
dence at Mount Vernon, among the papers of Washington. He could discover no 
clew to the MSS. until the year 1840, when, chiefly to examine it, he passed a week 
among the large collections of Sir Thomas Phillips, Avhose " liberal and generous 
hospitality " was not confined to the receptions in his own house. He was permitted 
to take the Manuscript to London, and have it copied Friday, 6th Nov., 1840. " There 
are five volumes, one of which appeared to have been his first sketch, and the other 
four the work as completed. In the whole they extend to about 1600 pages closely 
written, being a list of books relating to America, as far as he was able to find them, 
or their titles, alphabetically arranged according to the Authors names, and the 
principal heads of the subjects of anonymous works, with references to the Libraries 
where they are to be found. Altogether it is a work of extraordinary labor and of 
great intrinsic value." "Mr. Homer was a fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford." 
" Examining Spanish Manuscripts, Miss Phillips has copied the full-length portrait of 
Montezuma, which I shall send to Mr. Prescott, with the titles of tbese papers and 
some account of their contents." He mentions the " draft of a bill for taking away 
the charters of all the proprietary and charter colonies 1687, never passed," and a 
similar report from tae Board of Trade to Queen Anne. 

NOTE ON ALCEDO S BIBLOTECA AMERICANA." (See Catalogue, No. 1635.) 
It will be proper to call attention here to this work, and to add to the previous note 
that the anonymous titles are arranged in a supplement, and followed by an Index 
to the whole work.

pointed by Captain Cook, 24th May, 1771; prepared this chart and used it on 
the Resofute, on Cook s second voyage. The ship s course was evidently 
plotted at sea. Pie commanded the Discovery on the third voyage, and 
took general command of the expedition after the murder of Cook at Owyhee. 
After a vain attempt to penetrate the Polar Sea, he died August 27, 1778, at 
sea.

Obra premiada por la Sociedad Mexicana de Geografia y P^sladistica. The 

report of this society on the work is bound in. 

The most complete work on the Mexican languages, and indispensable to 
their study. The author, being wealthy and having access to scarce books 
and MSS., has collected grammars, vocabularies, and descriptions of some 
thirty-two languages, which with their dialects and various names would double 
the list of titles. Having been a pupil of the learned Padre Najera, skilled in 
the Mexican tongues (and a member of the American Philosophical Society), 
and whose papers and books he received, special advantages were possessed 
which the Count has here improved. Several thousand dollars would be 
quickly spent in buying the documents whose matter is here printed.

Although the histories represent the young Felipe as being of rich and noble 
family, and tempted by the devil to leave religion and be a merchant, j et his 
mother, Antonia, here asks the City Council to help her in her poverty, men- 
tioni-Tg the merits of her canonized son. The city awarded her accordingly,

Japan, etc. The miracles were proved before notaries, and the documents, in 
a thick folio, exist in Mexico still. This may be classed with the even more 
romantic Mexican saint, SAN SEBASTIAN DE APAKICIO, No. 818, which see.

816 SANTA MARIA DE LOS ANGELES, DE MEXICO. Disertacion 
Critico-Theo-Filosofica, sobra la Conservacion de la Santa 
Imagen de Nuestra Senora de los Angeles, que se venera 
extramuros de esta Ciudad de Mexico. Por El R. P. Fr. 
PEDRO PABLO PATINO. Unbound. 4 Mexico, 1801 
One of the notable Saints of Mexico, not so much for miraculous origin like 

that of Guadalupe, but for its preservation, b-ing painted on a wall of adobe 
or clay. The manuscript documents accompanying show that although its 
origin is claimed to have been in 1695, it attracted the attention of the Arch- 
bishop and the Inquisition in 1745, and here is the original order to stop such 
worship, to close the doors and windows of the oratorio where it was, and to 
cover the image. It was also ordered to discontinue the collection of money, 
and to deliver up the whole property existing. Like the Guadalupe appari 
tion (see Xo. 933) the antiquity of origin is shown by these papers to have 
been a later idea. But by efforts here shown the image triumphed, and we 
have the order of the Virey, Feb. 18, 1770, to collect money, and the plan of 
the Contador, Sept. 4, 1785, to give greater splendor to the worship of this 
" Imagen Portentosa."

The history of this Mexican saint, contained in these volumes, and the ex 
traordinary and unique collection of engravings herewith, is, perhaps, the 
s f rangest known. Mysticism apart, he was born in Galicia, in Spain, in 
1502, came early to Mexico, introduced ox-carts, and the training of animals

to draw them, transported silver, gained the good-will and help of the 
savages, like William Penn, and was an industrious, honest, and charitable 
man. According to the ecclesiastical account, ,he left Spain to escape a 
succession of attacks, which may be classed with those experienced by 
Joseph in the palace of Potiphar. Having taken monkish vows, he declined 
advantageous offers of marriage, but after prayerful reflection was espoused to 
a maiden of twelve years, who, an orphan, "had no protector and whom he 
guarded with purely paternal care. On her death, he took another partner 
in like manner, and of the same tender age. This action has been debated 
in the cloisters of both hemispheres, and whether there was any violation of 
monastic vows. Sebastian also was tried with every temptatio n and moles 
tation that the powers of .darkness could invent and put in practice. His de 
fense was valiant, courageous, and sometimes even comical. Angels came 
to his aid. Angels and saints assisted him in his ordinarv affairs ; they 
carried his teams over impassable ravines, sustained his broken axle-trees, 
and never abandoned him. The most intimate particulars of the whole his 
tory are given in the text and plates. The latter were never published, and 
not another set of the impressions has been known or heard of. It is said 
that the drawings and engravings were prepared in support of the desired 
canonization in Rome, in 1789, but that in consequence of a want of faith in 
the evidence, only the degree of " Beatificacion " was conceded, and the 
plates kept unused, as calculated rather to stimulate unseemly diversion 
than holy reverence. Two of these copper-plates were rescued from the 
melting pot, and accompany the only existing series of impressions known.

Probably a UNIQUE, certainly an extremely scarce collection of 129 line 
engraving?, complete, with the engraved title, 130. 

These plates are elaborate and finished, and contain much detail. Besides 
the general subject, there is much of episodes, views in pictures on the walls, 
through open windows and doors, and illustrative or related action in the 
background, Avith the same personages, seen in the front. A notable 

. union of real Mexican scenery, architecture, dresses, customs, and people 
with highly wrought mystical, monastic, and miraculous incidents. Mexican 
artists have furnished many of these sketches, but some have been worked 
up in Rome, where all were engraved by Bombelli, under the direction of the 
Padre Ximenez, who had charge of the presentation of the merits of this 
candidate for canonization. Each plate has a descriptive title in Spanish. 

Impressions from one of the two plates which exist may accompany some of 
these catalogues. No. 46 represents the Saint taking the Ilabito to serve the 
nuns in the Convent of Santa Clara, in the city of Mexico, to which he had 
given all hi* property. A nondescript creature, in the service of the Evil 
One, is striving to prevent this holy resolution with a boat-hook, and there 
are two additional glimpses of the persecutions suffered at the hands of the 
fiends below.

Vincentius died in 1264. This work is of the class of Pliny s " Natural History " 
and Humboldt s "Cosmos," in which it is cited, and gives all that was 
known up to its time. There is a considerable party that claims that Mentel 
was the first inventor of printing. They assert that he was betrayed by a 
domestic named Jean Gensfleisch, who communicated his master s secret to 
John Guttenberg, who removed to Mentz, where, aided by John Faust and 
Peter Schoeffer, he practiced the art. Marchand, "Hist, "de I lmprimerie " 
(see No. 580), adds to the fourteen works bearing the names of Faust and 
Schoeffer, these of Vincentius, and declares them to have been printed by 
the same, or with the same types and paper, arid to have the same water 
marks. These volumes show the marks described. 

* A work of vast labor, and the largest perhaps printed in these primitive times." 
WATT, ii. 935. It is referred to by Humboldt, and is a repository of ancient 
knowledge.

de Mejico, leida en la Real Academia de la Historia por su

SCRIPT, 28 pages. 4 Madrid, 1794 
RESPUESTA a la Memoria de J. B. Munoz. MANUSCRIPT, 
176 pages. 4 Mexico, 1818 

The history of this patron saint is a most important part of the history of 
Mexico, "it has been believed that the Virgin appeared several times to the 
Indian, Juan Diego, in 1531, on the barren hill of Tepeyac, with the object of 
convincing him and the Archbishop Zumarraga of the reality of her presence, 
and the necessity of having a sanctuary built for her worship. She at last 
prevailed, by sending to the archbishop, Juan Diego, with his aynte full of 
roses, and her own image stamped on this same cloth. The temples and 
cloister which were built are famous for their immense treasure. 

But the historian, Munoz, declares in this paper that he has had access to a 
multitude of letters of Zumarraga, and other documents, from which it is 
certain that these miraculous appearances were not mentioned until a cen 
tury or two afterwards ; although the image is referred to, but not as having 
any special merit. Only in 1737 was this Saint declared palrona principal of 
the city of Mexico; and in 1747, of the whole of New Spain. Munoz begins 
as follows, which sounds like Martin Luther : 

"With the death of the Apostles and Evangelists, the canon of the Sacred 
Scriptures, and the deposit of the dogmas of our holy religion was closed. No 
subsequent deed or doctrine, since this was not contained nor announced in 
the divine books, nor in the apostolic traditions, can ever augment the mim- 
ber of the articles of the Christian faith, of that faith and belief without 
which it is impossible to please God." 

The high reputation of the royal historian, and his declaration that the mirac 
ulous origin of Guadalupe was a pious fraud, when it first was knbwn in 
Mexico, in 1818, by means of this MS., roused a terrible storm. The answer 
here contained, is also ably written, and contains important historical informa 
tion.

On this three hundredth anniversary of the asserted aparicion, it was proposed 
to bring the image" into the capital; but this was defeated by Kev. Dr. 
Aguirre and others. There is evidence that the public faith had grown 
weaker. Here is a history with defense of the traditions, with citations in the 
Mexican language ; and attempts to repair the breaches opened by Munoz.

"Cabrera has the contours of Corregio, the animation of Dominichino, and the 
pathos of Murillo. His episodes, such as his angels, etc., are of rare beauty." 
BELTRAMI. 

Miguel Cabrera ranks as the first of Mexican ecclesiastial masters, and his later 
and best works have commanded very high prices. He painted during a 
period of fifty years, 1749 to 1799. A picture of this size, of the last date, was 
sold in 1861, "for $3,000, even in the hurried sale of those days of the Reforma 
tion. Cabrera was of pure Mexican race, the Zapoteca, and one whom 
Humboldt had in view when he expressed his favorable judgment on the 
genius and capacity of this people. Those interested are referred to a notice 
of Mexican painters, given as an introduction to Mr. Leonard s catalogue, of 
his sale of Mexican and Spanish paintings in Boston, January 12, 1871.

Original Portrait of Humboldt, painted from life in Mexico. 
32 by 25 inches. Jose Maria Vasquez, 1803 

This interesting and valuable picture of the youthful Humboldt, then just 
establishing his future fame, was painted for the Prior of the Convent of San 
Agustin, where Humboldt was entertained and made his observations. Another 
copy, exactly similar, was made for the College of Mineria, where it now is 
the most prized ornament, and which has particularly interested visitors to 
Mexico. During the serious changes which occurred in 1861, this picture was 
secured. The young man looks in vigorous condition for field work, and has 
his sextant, etc. The snowy peak of Popocatepetl is seen behind. This is the 
same which was exhibited at the late Humboldt Centennial in Boston.

11. LA ADORACION DE LOS SANTOS REYES. 48 ly 82 
inches. Bart. Estev. Muritto dr. ano de 1648 

The most valuable picture of the collection made in Mexico in 1861 This pic 
ture was there appraised at from $2,000 to $3,000. The " Wise Men " are rep- 
resented as the " Three Kings" of Europe, Asia, and Africa, and thev come 
in due magnificence to adore, and with rich presents. The King of Spain is 
the European representative, and kneeling to salute the foot humbly to kiss 
the smallest toe of the Divine Child, who is seated in his Mother slap, and 
radiant Avith youthful grace. As was the custom of the master of Sevilla, there 
is a sympathetic blending of human beauty, both in the Virgin Mother and the 
Infant, who is keeping an eye on the royal visitor, as if half doubtful of his 
intentions. The costumes, and attendants, and presents, set off the humble 
abode. The painting is recommendable, even to those who might object to 
ecclesiastical subjects in general.
