Entered, according to act of Congress, in the year 1835, by
in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the District of Massachusetts
This volume has been compiled chiefly from Balbi's Abrégé de
Géographie, but the materials are arranged on the plan of Goodrich's
Universal Geography. It not only contains, however, many details
not derived from either of those sources, but treats pretty fully of many
topics not touched upon by the former. Such portions of the work
as have not been borrowed from Balbi or Goodrich have been pre-
pared with care from the best and most recent systematic treatises on
Geography, English, French, German, and American;-from official
documents; and from the accounts of late travellers.
