relle de la France Equinoctiale. Par P.
Barrere. Paris, 1749. 2 vols. 8vo.--The former of these works is chiefly
confined to a description of the natives, their weapons, manners, mode of
life, &c.: the latter work is full on the natural history of Guyana.

849. Bancroft's Essay on the Natural History of Guyana. 1769. 8vo.--Besides
natural history, this work may be consulted with advantage on the manners,
&c. of the natives.

850. Stedman's Narrative of a Five-Years' Expedition against the Revolted
Negroes of Surinam, 1772-7. 2 vols. 4to.--There is an air of romance in
several parts of this work, which, though it adds to its interest, raises
suspicions of its accuracy and faithfulness, and that it has been in the
hands of a trading editor; still it is a work from which a lively picture
may be obtained of Surinam and its inhabitants.

851. Tableau de Cayenne. Paris, 1793. 8vo.--Climate, produce, mode of
culture, manners and nautical observations form the principal topics of
this work.

852. Narrative of a Voyage to Brazil. By Th. Lindley. 1804. 8vo.--This work
contains much information regarding the political, commercial, and domestic
state of the Brazilians, with some notices on natural history. As Brazil
used to be visited by our ships before we obtained the Cape, on their
voyage to the East Indies and China, much information may be gained from
several voyages to the latter, especially from the accounts of Lord
Macartney's Embassy by Staunton and Barrow.

853. Luccock's Notes on Rio Janeiro, and the Southern Parts of Brazil.
1820. 4to.--Mr. Luccock resided eleven years in Brazil, and he seems to
have been a careful observer; his work gives much new and important
information on agriculture, statistics, commerce, mines, manners, &c., but
it is heavily written.

854. Koster's Travels in the Brazils. 1816. 4to.--This work, together with
Luccock's, Henderson's, and Mawe's, comprize a body of information on
Brazil, nearly complete on all points except natural history, and that must
be sought in Prince Maximilian's Travels.

855. History of Paraguay. By Charlevoix. 1760. 2 vols. 8vo.--This work is
full on the plants, animals, fruits, &c., of this country; and is
particularly interesting from the account it gives of the celebrated and
singular Jesuit establishment in Paraguay.

856. Voyages dans l'Amerique Meridionale, 1781-1801. Par Don F. de Azara. 4
vols. 8vo. Paris, 1809.--The author, who was commissioner of the lin
