The random statements of the Bishop amounted to charges that the Colonists neglected education and the support of ministers, in fact, "that, with their native soil, they abandoned their native manners and religion." William Livingston gave the Bishop a hearty drubbing, but this tract does more. It gives much information respecting Eliot, Mayhew, and others instructing and preaching to the Indians, as well as to the establishment of Harvard College, and other means of promoting Christianity, and supplying ministers. The latter part of the book is important as to the history of Episopacy in New England. 646 Chauncy (Isaac) The Divine Institution of Congregational Churches, Ministry, and Ordinances as has bin Professed by those of that Persuasion asserted and Proved from the Word of God, N.

12o B. Wait & Son, Boston, 1827 672 CHYTRÆUS (David) De tribus nostræ ætatis Cæsaribus Augustis, Carolo V. Ferdinando I. Maximiliano II. Orationes datæ adolescentibus in schola recitandæ, EXCESSIVELY SCARCE, fine clean copy. So Witeberga, 1583 This book deserves to be ranked among works relating to America. Under Charles the Fifth there is given an account of the Discovery of America by Columbus, its name from Vespucci, its growth and development under Diego Columbus, the foundation of the Church therein, &c. together with the discoveries and conquests of Cortes, Pizarro, and others, and the voyages of Magellan, with a summary of the previous Portuguese discoveries in Africa and India.

Templa, Arae, Scholae, Bibliothecae, museia, arces, palatia, et conspicua sunt. Præmissis in clariores urbes Epigrammatibus J. C. Scaligeri. FIRST EDITION, fine copy in calf extra, SCARCE. 8° Herborne Nassoviorum, 1594 Great interest attaches to this rare book from the fact that the author has recorded, on pages 773-795, the inscriptions on Sebastian Cabot's map of the world, engraved by Clement Adams in 1549. This copy differs from the text given by Hakluyt, and does not altogether agree with the printed slips on the map which has in our days been acquired by the National Library of Paris. It is generally asserted that Chytraeus found the map at Oxford, and consequently Americans have sought for it there; but the careful reader will see that it is by no means certain that the author makes any such assertion. What he records of Cambridge is on 2 pages, with a break. All he records of Oxford is on one page, followed by another similar break, and on the next page a double line-thus completely separating the Cabot matter from Oxford.
