merit--they set forth the claims of Catholicism, and
must do a vast deal of good among Protestants who
casually meet with and peruse them. The book before us

Transcriber's Note
Footnotes in the original were numbered consecutively for each chapter.
They have been renumbered to be unique to the text. References to
notes below follow the newly numbered sequence. For those issues
which occur in footnotes, the page number refers to the page on which
the note begins.
The punctuation of many quoted passages is haphazard, with quotation
marks incorrectly or incompletely indicating the nesting thereof.
For example, Footnote 112 on p. 134 consists in part of a quotation
ending with "...the last work of the Creator." Here, the punctuation of
nested quotations is incorrect. It is not clear where the boundary
of the quote should be.
Unless the scope is very clear, no attempt has been made to correct
these lapses, and the text stands as printed. We note the following
paragraphs which remain as printed:
p. 134 n. 112 "The Chinese cosmogony...
p. 138 n. 116 "The Mandans believed...
p. 176 n. 142 In the _second_ ... fixed it at midnight."

This text is dense with citations, some of which seem incorrect.
For example, the reference to Genesis i. 2. on p. 234 is attributed
to "Gen. x.". No attempt was made to correct any attributions.
In note 305 on p. 364, the quoted passage from Pastoret's (ix, 170)
was corrupted, and is corrected: "On s'assembloit dans [au lien/un lieu]
sacré du Mont Mycale".
On p. 399, the name "Æschylus" appears, unaccountably as "OEschylos",
but is retained.
This text is generally followed as printed. Corrections are made
only where there are obvious printer's errors or where there
are numerous examples of a correct spelling. Where the issue appears
in quoted passages, no corrections were made. This includes foreign
language citations (French, Latin and Greek), where spelling and
accents, in particular, may not appear as expected.
In the index and advertisements, incidental inconsistencies of
punctuation are corrected without further notice.
