Louifiana, who was recalled to France by the
king's lettre de Cachet^ and againft the officers
who accompanied him, amongft whom I was,
without knowing of it. Already in tlie pre-
ceding month pf June, that governor of Loui-
JtanUy notified to M. de Belle-IJle, whofe hiflory I
have related to you, and to M. le Chevalier
d'Erneville^ commander of the troops of the
marine in Louifiana^ the difagreeable, news of
their recall in thefe terms :
'' I give you this notice, that I have received
" a letter from the Buc de Choifetiil^ dated the
" firft of January laft, which informs me, that
" the king, difpleafed with your fervices, has
" broke you, and deprived you of your places."
You may guefs how great the aftonifhment of
thefe two officers was, who had ferved their
king and country with fo much honour and dig-
nity. This cataflrophe has affedted M. de Belle-
JJle more than his unhappy fituation when he
was among the cannibals. This worthy officer,
who has done great- fervices to the colony of
Louifiana where he hoped to die in peace, has
not hefitated, notwithllanding his advanced
age, to expofe himfelf to the dangers of the fea

and of war, and to embark with us, in order to
lay his complaints before the fovcreign. He
larrived here very ill, and his misfortunes af-
fiid: him- to fuch a degree, that I fear very
much, he will not be able to come to the throne
of the bed of kings, but fink under this un-
expefted reverfe of fortune, at the latter end of
his life * ; you will perceive by the fcUov/ing ac-
count, that wirhout the experience of this old
officer, we ihould have perifhed, being one hun^
dred and fifty of us in the ihip Medea of twelve
guns, commanded by Captain Cochon. The
Englifli fleet which had taken Martinique^ was
attacking the Havannah in Cuba. It is known,
that in order to fail from Louijiana to France^
the fhip mufl: get fight of that illand»
This brings on a very natural reflection. Was
it not juft, that the governor of Lvtiijiana fliould
communicate to Captain Cochon thofe ad voices,
which he had received, that he might not ven^
ture imprudently, as he afterwards did^ to touch

at the Havannah? he ought to have paid a
very ferious attention to give filch advices.
We failed from Balife the tenth of Auguft
1762 ; and as we intended to avoid Cuha^ we
went towards the ifles of Hortugas or of -2«^-
?/fj*, we had a fair wind which blew very hard ;
but our pilot being little acquained with thefc
fliores, miffed the entrance of the channel of
Bahama^ in the dufk, and failed into the bay
which the cape of Florida forms, having taken
the height, and found the latitude the fame
on this fide the cape as it ought to be on the
other, he believed he had doubled it ; and
we fliould have been loft, if M. de Belle-IJle^ who
in forty-five years had acquired a perfedt know-
ledge of the coafts of North America^ and had
feme doubts .about the pilot's abilities, had not
watched to avoid the danger. In reality, this
experienced major feeing in the morning that
the colour of the water was changed, went to
wake the captain, who thought he was in the
open fea and flept with fecurity. Having taken
the foundings he found his miftake, and was
much furprifed to find only about five fathoms

of water, we veered about and happily got clear
of thefe fhores by the help of frequent foundings.
Before I proceed, I muft be allowed to make
a digreflion upon Florida^ and on that fountain
which had the power of making old people
young again, which has made fo great a noife
in Europe^ and has occafioned almofl as many
voyages in order to obtain it, as the infatiable
defire of riches. The Spaniards wifhed to get
poffe/Tion of it, as they had of the rich mines
of Peru: I hope, that thefe details will not
prove difagrceable to you, and that hope alone
is fufficient to authorife the abftradl I am going
to prefent you with.
The Spaniards call the cape of Florida Cabo
de los Corrientes^ becaufe the water has fo flrong
a current there, as to refifl the wind, and hinder
the Ihips from advancing, though they fhould
croud all their fails j which occafions their being
fometimes thrown againft fome rocks, which
we were very near experiencing againft fome little
ides which Chrijiopher Columbus called Los Mar-
tyres^ becaufe, having perceived the tops of the
rocks at a -diftance^ he imagined he faw a like-
nefs in them to men that were tortured. Thefe
ides are eleven in number. Los Tortugas, or the
Turtles, were fo called by the Spaniards, who
caught fix thoufand tortoifes upon thefe ides.
B 3 The
& TRAVELS THROUGH
The Bahama iflands are fo low as to appear
overfiovved, by which means a great channel is
formed with a currenc, which in the narrowed
place is twenty leagues broad from Alhana to
Lg3 Martyres^ and fourteen from Los Martyres
to Florida. Ail thefe ifles are fituated in twenty-
live degrees fifteen minutes north latitude. Wc
have cruized for twenty-feven days together in
thefe parts, from whence v.'e efcaped by a kind
of miracle.
It is known, that Don Juan Ponce de 'Leon -dif-
covered Florida^ as he was in fearch of Bimini :
this is the iile v/hich has been fo much tallied of,
containing the river Jordan, and the fountain fo
renowned by the Indians of Cui^a, who aflerted
that Its waters had the quality of making mea
young again.. Don Juan Ponce de Lean believed
this fable, and went in fearcJi of the fountain
withoux finding it. He fent Captain Perez de
Orti^hia and the pilot Antonh de Alminos upon
this difcovery : he touched at the bay of Puerto
Ric^^ where he found Bmini^ but neither the
river Jordan nor the fountain. Don Juan died
fpmc time after, unfuccefsfully fearching for this
famous fouataija* \
TKe inhabitants of: Cut/a, who were plagued
by the S^aniw'ds to difcover the gold mines, be-
ing
LOUISIANA. 7
jng defirous of getting rid of thefe importunate
guells, told them, that befides the gold which
they would find in the i fie of B'mini^ there was
likewife a river and a fountain which made old
men young by bathing in it. This account was
immediately tranfmitted to the court of Madrid^
where it engaged many Spaniards to embark at
Cadiz^ in order to go to the ^eji Indies to fee
this wonder, which, if it had really exifled,~
would have been worth more than all the gold
in the world.
When thefe Spaniards returned to Cadiz, eve-
ry one found that they had been deceived ; in-
ftead of being young, they were grown older,
and the people laughed at their long and trou-
blefome voyage ; but in feeking for this imagi-
nary fountain, they difcovered Cape Corrientes,
At that time all thofe who came to the ille of
Bimini, tried all the rivers, fountains, lakes, and
even the marfhes in it, bathed in them, and
drank their waters, in order to try whether they
would make them young again ; this wonder has
but lately been fought for as the philofopher's
ftone was in Europe.
We agreed amongfl ourfelvcs, that if we were
taken by Englijli privateers, and carried to this
ifle, we would bathe in all the rivers and foun-

tains of Bimini, This ifle now belongs to the
EngUjTi^ and is called the IJle of Providence-^ it
fofmerly was a retreat for the pirates who have
infefted the Arnerican feas for a confiderable
time.
The firft thing that gave rife to this fable
about the fountain is this : the air of Florida is
fo temperate, that it is faid there have been men
of two hundred and fifty years of age. It is like-
wife aiTerted, that the handfomeft women in
North A-merica lived at Bimini \ and ail the men
of the continent, even the old ones, retired to
that ifle to foften the miferies of their life •> but
all thefe innocent pleafures ended at the arrival
of the Europeans^ who difpoiTeiTed thefe poor
people. All the ifles have been fettled by peo-
ple who came from Cuba. The accounts inform
us of the brave refiftanee which the Indians of
Florida made againft the Spaniards ; when the
latter arrived in their country, they met them in
eleven canoes or piraguas armed with bov/s and ar-
rows ; they were bold enough to come and cut
the cables of Bon Juan Ponce de Leon's veflel,
who was forced to make peace with them : thefe
people are governed by Paraufiis or Caciques.
1 ihali add here, being upon the article of this
pretended fountain, that the Indians of Barien

endeavouring, as thofe of Cuba had, to get rid of
the Spaniards^ on account of the inquiry they
made after gold, perfuaded them, by way of
joke, that fince they were fo fond of this metal,
they fhould go to the fouthward, where it was
fo common that they fifhed it with nets ; Vafco
Nunnez de Balboa inferted this account in a me-
moir which he fent to court ; this piece of news
pleafed the Spaniards; about this time Nun-
nez difcovered the South Sea and Peru ; but the
gold fiihery proved abortive.
You know, that, in the time of the famous
fyftem of John LaWy who was near overturning
the whole kingdom, there was a reprefentation
at Paris of an Indian upon the river Mijfiftppiy
giving a Frenchman an ingot of gold for a knife,
and every one had then the madnefs of bringing
his real money, in order to have a fhare in the
bonds of a pretended Dorado \ it is certain that
if fome Indians of the neighbourhood of New
Orleans had been at Taris at that time, they
would have faid with good reafon, that the
French had loft their wits, or rather they would
have taken them for jugglers \ it is faid thofe
pretended mines were the ruin of M. de la Salle
in 1684, when he miffed the mouth of the Mif-
Jifippi, He did not take notice, that the inte-
rior parts of this vaft continent had more pre-
cious

cious treafures : they were to be found by cul-
tivation, which is the mother and nurfe of all
mankind, and the riches of countries.
We were obliged to keep along the coafl of
Florida^ and on the thirty-feventh day of our
voyage we were near Louiftana. Unhappily for
us, a violent ftorm expofed us to the danger of
perifhing, and obliged us to go towards Cuha^
where, not finding the fquadron, we imagined
the Englifh had raifed the fiege \ but we were
going to deliver ourfelves up into their hands,
as ihall appear from the fequel.
We refolved to touch at the Havannah in or-
der to take in provifions, which we were in
want of, and likewife a coafting pilot. We
came to the road on the eighth of September
1762, hoifi-ed a flag, and fired feveral cannons
to call affiftance, but were furprifed to fee no-
body come ; however, approaching more and
more, and juft as we were entering into the
port, we faw Cajile Moro almoft demolifhed,
which made us take a refolution to launch our
boat v/ith fome officers, to go upon difcovery •,
our canoe luckily met with a Spanifh halandray
or fmall veflel, going out of the harbour, hav-
ing fome families of that .nation on board, with

mark', the mafter of this veffel informed us,
that the town and fort furrendered to the EngUJIi
on the i2th of Auguil 1762.
We inftantly veered about-, an Englifh fri-
gate went to chace us -, but Providence, atten-
tive to our prefervation, fent a very thick fog,
by means of which we got off, and entered the
channel of Bahama at night.
Some days after, we faw a fhip preceded by
two boats. We foon faw that fhe was a priva-»
teer from the ifle of Providence^ and that the
two boats were prizes taken from our country-
men ; fhe came to att^ack us, and we received
her well, though inferior by four guns "^ ; then,
not relying on our mercantile cannoneers and of-
ficers, every one of us exerted himfelf to the ut-
mofl, and employed all his knowledge of artil-
lery ; our cannon was ferved fo well, that, af-
ter a briik fire during about three hours, the rig-
ging of the Englifh fhip being almofl entirely
deftroyed, and the fhip itfelf not able to with-

vM. iie Kerlerec took away two of our cannon, and this velTel,
which had brought the ftafTofficers of the regiment of Jn-
goumois to Louiftanay had fourteen guns ; it is certain, that
if we had had the fame number, the privateer and her pri/es

Hand our fire, flie was obliged to retire, and we
were lucky enough to have nobody killed or
wounded on board ; our fhip was Ihot through,
and our fails and rigging fo much damaged, that
we*» were obliged to put up new ones in their
flead.
During the fight, we were expofcd to a great
danger, the wind fending back fome burning
oakum into our fhip, it fet fire to a box of car-
tridges on the quarter-deck •, but happily it did
not communicate to the powder-room, which
would have blown us up.
The wind continued contrary to us, and we
were in the open fea, without knowing when we
fhould be able to touch any where. Every day
the danger of ftarving to death became more and
rnore vifible, being already reduced to the fourth
part of our allowance. We held a council, in
which we refolved to attack the firfl fhip of the
enemy which we fhould meet with, or to make
a defcent upon the coafl of New England^ we
being juft oppofite that province, in order to get
provifions, or die fword in hand. The under-
taking was bold, and I may fay defperate, but
our proverb fays. Hunger drives the wolf out of
the wood * 'y we were come to that extremity,

when, by an effeft of Providence, we got fight
of a great fhip : we bo/e down upon her imme-
diately, being determined to grapple, becaufe
Ihe appeared to be flronger in the number of
her cannon ; we hoifted Englifli colours, but
ihe crouded her fails to get off j however, as we
had gained upon her, fhe prepared for the fight
fo boldly, that it would have kept off any but
hungry people -, we hoifted our colours accord-
ing to cuftom, by firing a gun ; and having
brought our Ihip to the proper diftance, wc
gave her a broadfide, upon which fhe ftruck to
us immediately. Her cargo was very rich ; wc
took away her cannon, and many chefts full of
mufkets, piftols, and iabres, which ferved to
arm us ; but we found few provifions in her,
as fhe was near the place of her deftination. Af-
ter having ranfomed her, we left her juft provi-
fions fufficient to reach Carolina with, whither
fhe was bound, and from whence fhe was not
above feventy leagues diftant.
We now thought we might venture to fail for
Europe with the provifions we had got, ho-
ping that, as we were well armed, v/e might
take another prize, or touch slz the Azores "^ ^
but we were difappointed in thefe expedations,

the cgxitrary winds always prevented our land-
ing; and having met no velTel on our palTage, we
were during fifty days reduced to extreme mife-
ry, having no more than three ounces of bifcuit,
and half a bottle of water every day *.
This poor fubfiflcnce would foon have been
confumed, if a violent ftorm had not, after nuni-
berlefs dangers, happily brought us to Spain on
the ninety-fourth day of our pafTage, after hav-
■ ing efcaped from perifhing by the waves, the

Our firft care on arriving in the port was to
thank the Supreme Being by a I'e Deum^ during
a general difcharge of our artillery.

commanded the French fquadron, coming from
the glorious Newfoundland expedition. This
brave ofRcer was furprifed to fee fo many foldiers

leave, figned de Kerlerec and Foucaut^ difem-
barked, and took fervice among the Spaniards,
in the army which was deflined for PortugaL
We went on fhore the firft of November 1 762,
in a body, to pay a vifit to the Marquis de CroiXy
captain-general in the kingdom Gallicia, This
nobleman received us very gracioufly ; from
thence we went to M. David, conful-general of
the French nation in Galliciay refident at Corunna*
We begged he would advance us what we were
moft in want of, as we were without money to
live upon the r6ad in Spain -, he anfwered, that
he had no orders to do it, but that when he
found an opportunity of obliging a fet of wor-
thy perfons, he took every thing upon himfelf :
we thanked him for his goodnefs.
After this, having refted a little, to recover
from the fatigue of our voyage, we are prepa-
ring to go to France by land, and hope to arrive
at court in the beginning of January 1763.
I hope I have omitted nothing worthy of ob-
lervation during our correfpondence, in which

1*"MM"^ ETER LoEFLiNG was a fon of Eric
g P S Loefiing^ Book-keeper, and of Barbara
k^MMjef S tr an dman, born 1729, January 20-31.
in the Province of Geftrikeland^ at "Holfcrjhrook^
in the parifh of Walho,
His parents took care to have him prepared
for his univerfity education by private tutors»
In 1743, he entered the univerfity of Upfala^
and after having regularly alTifted the ledlures of
feveral profeiTors and efpecially thofe of Dr.
Linnaus^ he relplved to (tudy phyfic in 1745.
He was very diligent and applicated in the pur*
fuit of all the fciences neceffary in the
branch of literature he had fixed upon,
and for that purpofe never failed to be pre-
fect at Dr. Linnaus'^ botanical excurfions»
The Do6lor could not yet difcern him among
the great number of pupils who attended his
demonilrations. But having at the end of the
term, given leave to his pupils, to confult him

either by word of mouth, or by letter upon fuclr
points as were not fufficiently clear to them :
Loefling made a good ufe of this leave, and
never failed to propofe to his tutor by every re-
turn of poll, fome queries on botanical fubjedls,
which were delivered by his intimate friend
'^ohn Otto Hagftroem^ who is now phyfician to
the province of OJlgothland. The great Linncsus
foon difcovered in the courfe of this correfpon-
dcnce, his botanical genius, and in order to en-
Courage him, he was never deficient in anfwer-
rng regularly his queries. '
Dr. Linn^us defired hirn to return ibon to tPic
tiniverfity, where he had the befl opportunity
of improving himfelf in a fcience for which he
had a peculiar turn. The pupil was ready to
comply with this invitation ; but foynd himfelf
under the moil critical dilem.ma, on account of
the poverty of his parents, who could .not af-
ford to keep him any longer at the univerfity at
their expence : he therefore begged the dodlor
to Jpfocure him a place as private tutor. The
profeflbr thought it his duty to encourage fo fine
a genius, and as there was no other opportunity
to" place him, he refolved to take him into his
houfe, and to make him the companion of his
own fon. He forefaw that the tutor would not
only kindle a defire for improvement in botany,
in
PETER L O E F L I N G. 73
in his tender pupil ; but that even his enthufiafm
would be communicated to his young friend,
and fo it really happened. In this flation Loef-
ling made the befl of his time, and of the op-
portunity of improving by the Dodlor's ledtures,
at which he was afiifling very regularly ; the reft
of the time left to him, he fpent in feeing the moft
ingenious and diligent ftudents, whofe friendihip
he acquired, and in vifiting the botanical garden
feveral times a day, and at dinner he propofed
queries and dubia to his tutor, by whom he now
was efteemed worthy of the greateft intimacy
and friendfhip \ for the dodtor obferved in his
pupil, according to his own expreflion, " a
" mind as pure as gold, and without the leaft
" duplicity of manners or words, which were
" exadly correfponding with his moft fecret
" thoughts." He was not effeminate, and re-
liftied neither the pleafures of the table, nor
vanity in drefiing \ he flept as comfortably on
the hardeft bench, as in the fofteft bed 5 and the
finding of a fmall plant or mofs, repaid him
amply the fatigue of a long excurfion.
In the fummer term of 1748, the Doctor gave
to each of his fcholars a branch of botany for
its illuftration, as a talk. Loefiing got the buds
of trees for his allotted fhare, as this fubjedl had
never been well inquired into, and he was the
only
74 The LIFE of
only one who executed his tafk. The benefit of
vifiting the botanical garden at every hour of
the day, gave him an opportunity to make the
molt accurate obfervations on the buds of trees,
from whence he drew the moft curious infe-
rences, which he publiihed in 1749, in a differ-
tation de Gemmis arhorum. In- the year 1750,
Dr. Linnceus began to draw up his Philofophia
■ Botanica^ but he was attacked by fo violent a fit
of the gout, that he was almoii paft all hopes
of recovery *, the difeafe however relenting a
little, he diftated the work to Loefling^ who
.went on with it as fall as the prefs could go.
This'bufinefs, v/as not only amufing to Loefting^
but proved very ufeful to him; for he never
failed to apply to his tutor for the elucidation of
fuch articles as he did not underftand, which
was readily granted,- and thus the pupil became
a perfe6l mafter of the Dodlor^s fyftem and its
fpirit.
Linnaeus purfued his grand plan in botany with
an undaunted courage and perfeverancc in
fpite of all the fatigues, obloquy, and' ingrati-
tude he met with. His difciples were gone to the
mcft diftant parts of the globe, and returned
Joaden with the moll curious difcoveries. Kalm

Lapland. The fouthern parts of Europe, how-
ever were Jefs fearched, than thofe in the re-
moteft parts of India. For this purpofe the
great botanift endeavoured to get acquainted
with the Marquis de Grmaldi, the Spanilh am-
baflador at the Swedijli court ; in order to obtain
leave for one of his pupils to travel through
Spain. The iirft fteps for this purpofe were
fcarceiy taken by the Dodtor's friends, when the
ambaflador fent him word by Lieutenant Rad-
haud^ that his Catholic Majefty had already de-
fired to have a botanift from Dr. Linnaus^ which
pccafioned him great aftonifhment: but it is
worthy to be remarked, that fome Englifhmen
had been the firft who occafioned the court of
^pain to fend for a botanift to Sweden^ at a time
when Linnaeus had been moft anxious about the
method of introducing one of his pupils into
Spain, Some Englifh gentlemen, and among
them, Robert More^ Efq; F. R. S. obferving
with what indolence and careiefsnefs the greater
part of travellers pafTed through thofe parts of

vel in company, through France, Spain, Italy ^

a view to fulfill in part the plan to enquire more

accurately into the various curiofities peculiar to
each country. Thefe gentlemen being in Spain^
were invited to dine with Don Carvajal^ who acci-
dentally afked them their opinion about Spain i
they anfwered, that its curiofities had by fer
furpafied their expedation, and that for all thi^,
the remark of Linnaus in his Bihliotheca Bota-
nica were ftill true, that the Flora Hifpanica
would turn out as new as it was rich. Don Car^
vajal wifhed to fee the Dolor's performance^
and , having read the paiTage, he declared, that
Spdn Ihould in a little time be free from luch a
Teproach. Mr. M?r^, in his tour through S<m-
^^«, communicated to the Dodor this anecdote,
when he vifited the univerficy of Upfala^ and
thus it became a key to the meflage of the
Marquis- de Grimaldu which had caufed Z/;?^^//!^
fo great an afconifliment.
Dr. Linn^tis was very happy, as he heard he
had leave to kha out of his pupils, one whom
he thought mofl defervbg of occupying a place
that would be both honourable and profitable ;
he fixed upon Loefling his favourite ; and though
this young m,an had gone through the ufual ex-
ercifes, and was to obtain the degree of Dodor
of Phyuc in three months time, he refolved to
negleci: this honour, and to go on his tour to
Spatn. In a month's time he was ready, having
taken
PETER LOEFLING 7f
taken leave of his relations, friends, and coun-
try. The Royal Academy of Sciences made
him a prefent of a fine EngUfti microfcope, a
thermometer, a mod exad geometrical fcale,
and many other inftruments. Count Piper^ Mr.
Peter Wargentin^ the one prefident, the other
fecretary to the Royal Academy, and many of
its members, vied with each other in contribut-
ing to the equipment of the young botanifl.
The director of the Swedijh Eafl India company,
Clas Grille generoufly offered him a free paiTage
and board, in one of his fhips bound for Porto
in Portugal*, and the Marquis Grimaldi granted
him a handfome allowance towards the expences
of the Tour to Madrid. Loefling was well made,
tall, ftrong, and of a healthy conflitution, un-
impaired by debauches and luxury, all which
promifed him good fuccefs in his labourious un-
dertaking in a foreign climate. The leave he
jtook of his tutor at tT^y^/^, was very affedling
and moving. The nineteenth of March, 1751,
he left for ever his native country, went round
the Baltic^ pafTed the Sounds crofled the German
ocean, the bay of Bifcay^ and at lad: arrived
May the eighteenth, at Oporto. Some Fuci and
marine produtflions of the Vermes Clafs, amufed
our natural hiftorian during his pafiage •, but the
Portugueze Flora was an ample field for his in-
quiries,

OF
Guiries, he colleded every plant, dried fpcci-
mens, coUedled feeds, and fent them to Linnaus.
For want of another fhip, and not venturing to
go to Lijhon in a Portugueze Caravela ; he ftaid
at Oporio till the beginning of Auguft, when he
took his pafiage in a SwediJIi fhip. They were
becalmed, and therefore fpent eight days on a
pafTage of a few hours. Here he found a very
remarkable difference in the climate, which pro-
duced the fineft American plants, as the Ag&'ve
Americana^ Cacius opuntia^ Phcenix daElylifera^ and
the Brac^na Draco, Mr. Godin^ a French aftro-
nomer, who had been fifteen years in America ^
and who was appointed Diredlor of the Academy
of Marines at Cadiz^ took Loefling in his com-
pany, and left Lijbon with him the latter end of
September. During the journey, the attention
of the young botanift was employed in examin-
ing thofe wild growing plants, which in this
country were the ornaments of the beft gardens,
and required a careful cultivation. He found
the NarcifTufes, the Leucoya, Ornithogala,
Squills, and Afphodels in full flower : Laven-
der, Sage, Kofemary, Fenil, Thyme and
Stocchas Arabicuy fpread their odoriferous ef-
fluvia; and the groves confifted of Olives,
Myrtles, Coluteas, JefTamines, Rofebays, Phyl-
l^Teas, Maflidlrees and Chio Turpentine Trees,

All thefe contributed to make his journey both
iifefiil and agreeable. At Madrid where he ar-
rived, after having been feventeen days on the
road Loejiing began to fear he fhould find neither
bbtanifts, nor friends, nor patrons : but the gloom
which this thought had fpread over his counte-
nance, was foon changed into joy and content-
inent, by the recommendation of Mr. Godin^
who introduced him into the befl companies,
and prefented him to Don Caroajal^ who fa-
voured him with a kind and gracious recep-
tion.
The moft unexpeded thing to him was the
great number of lovers of botany, which he
found at Madrid^ Four of them deferve chiefly
to be mentioned :. viz. Don Jofefh Ortega^ chief
apothecary to the army, and fecretary of the
phyfical academy at Madrid ; Don Minuart chief
apothecary to the hofpitals ; Don ^ter^ firll
furgeo.n to the king, who had a fplendid bota-
nical garden, and a moft elegant colledion of
plants ; and Don Chriftoval Velez^ apothecary
and examinator of the College of Phyficians,
who was pofTeffed of a choice colledion of
botanical books, of a grand Hortus Siccus^ and
had drawn up a Flora Madritenfis, Thefe gen-
tlemen found our young botanift much to their

hoyfes, gardens and libraries were at his fervice.
He got from the king a penfion of eight thou-
fand Reals per annum, without becoming the
objeft of their envy.
Loefling gained more and more the favour of
thefe phyfical gentlemen, and paid to each of
them a handfome compliment, by calling four
new plants found in S'pain after their names,
which will be a lading monument of the
gratitude of the Swedijh botanift, as Unn^us
has taken thefe names into all the fubfe-
quent editions of his Genera and Species planta^
rum and into the laft editions of his Syftema Na-
turae, Loefling ftaid about two years at Madrid^
and made during that time fome little botanical
expeditions in its neighbourhood : and col-
ledled above 1300 diftinct fpecies of Spanijh
plants. The miniflry then began to think of
fending Loefling to Spanifh South America. The
plan for this expedition was great, and worthy
of Don Carvajars genius and love for the
fciences. According to this plan the whole ex-
pedition Ihould be under the direction of Don
Jofeph de Itturiaga^ Capitan de Altohordo in the
Beet, and director of the Caracas^ and the trad-
ing company there : under him was the next in
command, Don Eugenio Albaradi Colonel in the
land fervice, a native of Lima in ?eru. Four
profefTors
i? E T E R L O E F L I N a 8i
profeflbrs were at the head, each of one fcience,
vii. I, a geographer ; ^. a natural philofophei* *
5. a botanift ; and 4. one acquainted with
tommercial affairs. Each profeiTdf had foiir af*-
fiftants, and befides then: were four furgeons,
^hd many other people intended for this eicpe-
ditibn. Don Juan Ignat'io Mddarlaga and Doil
Jofeph Solano both Capitans de Fregatta, with
Don Jofeph Santos Cabrera were for the geogra-^
phical department. Losfiing was the head bo*,
tanift, and had Dob Benito Paltbr^ from the Py-
renees, and Don Antonio Condole from Barcellona,
two young phyficians, for his affiilants : and
two other youths, born at Madridy of wealthy
parents, called Don Bruno Salvador^ and Don
San Juan de Dios Caftel, were intended for
draughtfmen arid pupils iii natural hiftory.
The other departments were filled Up in propor-
tion, fo that this might have turned out one of the
grandeft and liiofb ufeful undertakings if pro-
perly condu6led and executed. Loejling got
twenty thoufand reales de Velloh towards his
equipment in linen, cloaths ahd other necelTa-
ties. His falary was increafed to ten thoufand
reales per annum, and that of each of the phy-
licians under him, wa^ fixed at fiV-e thoufand

merica, was the chief obje6l of this expedition 5
Don Carvajal reprefented to the king that this
would be the beft opportunity to get acquainted
with the products, of the interior parts of this
extenfive continent : that France and England
were great only by the knowledge and ufe of
the fine produ£ts of their fettlements in Ameri-
ca ; that South America, no doubt, was richer
in them than any other part of the world, and that
nothing was wanting to reap the fame benefit
from the Spanifh colonies, than a nearer infpec-
tion into, and examination of, the American
plants^ animals, and natural productions, which
could now be procured by the addition of a
good natural hiilorian. This being at laft agreed
to by the king, the expedition was put into ex-
ecution, and Loefling ordered to go with his af-
fiilants to Cadiz, From whence they fct fail
February the fifteenth, 1754. The pafiage was
happy and fhort ; they pafTed February the
twenty -fourth, the Canary JJlands ; April the
third, the iile of "Tabago^ the fourth, the ifles of
Granada and Margarita, and arrived April the
eleventh at Cumana, the capital of the province
of New Andalufia or Cumana»

Here Loefting found a new world, every plant
he beheld was new, and their great number
gave him employment from morning to niglit.
This expedition was intended to go up the great
Orenoco river, then by Rio Negro, into the Ma-
rannon, or river of Amazons^ . and afterwards
along the limits of Brazils, till to thofe pre-
tended lakes which are fituated at the fource
of Rio tie la Plata, which river they intended
to follow to Buenos Ayres, and from thence the
tour fhould go back through Chili, Peru, Lima,
and §luito, all countries wl^ich never had been
vifited by any botanift of note, if we except

The life
OF
Wi
During the whole paflage he gave ledures on
botany, to his pupils, and made them acquaint-
ed with the ufe of the Linnasan fyflem ; the
Philofophia hotanica was his Syllabus^ and the
young phyficians feemed to apply very clofely
to the lludy of botany. At his' landing the
collection of plants and feeds, the examination
and defcription of every new objed, and the
drav/ings of fuch things, as were either new or
not well drav/n before, gave fufficient occupa-
tion to Loefiing and his afriftants.
During fix months refidence at Cumana^ he
made an excurfion through New Barcelona^ and
the miffions of Firitu^ towards the river Guayanay
where he continued his obfei*vations durino- two
or three months j from thence he travelled to
the mifTion of Curonl^ and then returned to Cu-
mana \ but he and the whole company fell fick
at their return, of a fever or ague, of which
he had every day an accefs. This being re-
moved, he fell ill again with a tertian, having
got wet feet in a marlh. Some time after this
was cured, he got again a quotidian fever, which
he could not get rid of for a long while. His
chief Ihewed great care and tendernefs for his
health, and defired him abfolutely not to write,
till afternoon or in the evening, the only proper
time for this bufinefs in thofe hot climates : for
Loefiing
P E T E R L O E F L I N G. S5
Loefiing had already colledled about fix hundred
fpecies, and among them were about thirty new
Genera^ and about two hundred and fifty fpecies
not mentioned before by Dv, Linnceus in his
works, the defcriptions of which he drew up.
The fever had emaciated poor Loeflingy he got a
double tertian with fainting fits, but conquered
this. In the beginning of X755, he went to the
miffion of Merercuri^ here he got new paroxyfm^
of intermittent fevers, and foon after the Leu^
cophkgmatia (perlefia) and at lafl that kind of
dropfy called anafarca^ of which he died Febru-
ary the twenty-fecond, 1756, His txitov Lin-
naus publifhed Loefiing s letters containing abfo-
lutely nothing but defcriptions, queries and Du-
hia about plants, with fome repeated acknow-
ledgments to his tutor, fome defcriptions of rare
Spanifh plants, which are given here at full
length, and reckoned by Dr. Linnaeus to be mo-
dels in their kind ; laftly, fome defcriptions and
remarks on American plants which are like wife
here added.
Thus died together with Veter Loefling^ the
hopes of the great advantages to natural hiftory,
which were expeded from his tour through Spa-
ni/Ji South America \ which country no doubt is
the richeil field for difcoveries of every kind in
natural hiflory and whofe treafures are now, a?

it v/ere, buried, through the indolence and jea-
loiify of the Spaniards and^their miniftry.
The here annexed catalogue of North Ame-
rican plants, the advantages which accrue by
their knowledge to trade and commerce, the .
daily new accefTions to the Flora of this exten-
fxve continent, procured by the a6livity of this
great, learned and commercial nation are an in-
conteftible proof of the advantages which might
be reaped, if South Anerica v/ere in the hands
of a nation pofTelTed of the fame fpirit of indus-
try, and free inquiry, which are the two great
fupports of national wealth and liberty : they
prove at the fame time the providential care over
this wealthy and free nation, in that fpirit o^ in-
dolence and jealoufy, with which the Spaniards
are frill infatuated, and probably will be fo for
foATie time, in fpite of the great and expenfive
efforts made from time to time by their govern-
ment, in order to promote induftry and learning,
and to put their commerce on a better bafis.
The premature death of Loefiing, though very
hurtful to fcience in general, may however be
confidered as a further proof of this aflertion :
he died in the prime of his youth, with a ftrong
conftitution, fupported liberally in a fcience in
which he was an enthufiafV, before he could go
on the intended great expedition, before he
' could
PETER L O E F L I N G. 87
could inftruft the pupils trufted to his care, and
before Spain could reap the leaft benefit from
the fcience of this promifing and able botanift,
and which no doubt it would have enjoyed, had
he gone through the intended great tour in
South America,
I conclude with a moft ardent wifh, that Eng-
land may never be without difinterefted and pa-
triotic men, who for the increafe of ufeful learn-
ing and the knowledge of nature, will exert
their influence, genius, and wealth, to promote,
encourage, and prote6t, the inveftigation of na-
tural hiftory in the Weft-Indies and America,
on the Senegal and Gambia rivers in Africa,
and the great and extenfive poffefTions which
the Englifli enjoy in the Eaft-Indies, and where-
ever their navigation extends.
