Transcriber's Note:

  Inconsistent hyphenation and spelling in the original document have
  been preserved. Obvious typographical errors have been corrected.

  Italic text is denoted by _underscores_.

  The [bracketed] footnotes are as in the original.

  Inconsistent or incorrect accents and spelling in passages in French,
  Latin and Italian have been left unchanged.

  ς (final form sigma) in the middle of a word has been normalized to σ.
  Greek diacritics were normalized to be all present or all missing,
  according to their preponderance in the quotation.

  The paragraph starting "Page 2, column 2" has an unmatched quote.

  The following possible inconsistencies/printer errors/archaic
  spellings/different names for different entities were identified
  but left as printed:

  Vanderkemp and Vander Kemp

  Potomac and Patomac

  Postlethwayte and Postlethwaite

  Mecklenburg and Mecklenberg

  ascendancy and ascendency.

  On page 33, Molliores Spsyke should possibly be Moliére's Psyché.

  On page 52, multnomat should possibly be Multnomat.

  On page 181, Universary should possibly be University.

  On page 192, sculk should possibly be skulk.

  On page 537, the price of the Algerine captives is stated as "$34,79,228,",
     which is probably a printer's error.

  On page 546, termometer should possibly be thermometer.
