_Dutch Chronicle of the World._--Will any of your readers oblige me with
information respecting a Dutch work, professing to be an historical
chronicle of the world from the creation to the time in which it was
printed, which was in the days of _Merian_, the celebrated engraver,
father to the naturalist Madame Merian, who was also an artist of some
repute. The work I allude to was illustrated by numerous spirited
engravings (supposed to have been executed on _pewter_), and of which I
possess several hundred, which had been cut out of the letter-press
which surrounded the prints, and bought at a stall in London many years
back. I question whether there is a copy of the work to be found in
England, except it be in the British Museum.
