In qua agitur de bello Quarto. Monthly Review, July 1779. MDCCLXXX. 1 POLITICAL ANNALS of the present united colonies, from their Compiled chiefly from London. "This work is so valuable on account of the distinctness of its detail, the authenticity of its documents, and the elegant manner in which it is written, that it is with concern we remark, throughout the narrative, the most studied application of every fact, which will admit of it, to the vindication of a principle, as warmly contradicted by one party, as it is strenuously asserted by another, the right of the British parliament to tax America. Taking for granted principles which many will be disposed to contest,―that a series of precedents is of itself a sufficient foundation of legality, and that it is conclusive to argue from the manner in which the colonies were treated in their infancy, to that in which they ought to be treated in their maturity, he takes every occasion which the history affords him of maintaining this right; and thus, in indulging the warmth of political disputation, he loses the dignity of history.” M.R. 2 AN IMPARTIAL HISTORY of the war in America, between Great Britain and her colonies, from its commencement to the end of the year 1779; exhibiting a circumstantial, connected, and 1780. 8vo.

Pownal,) which presupposes the independence of America, the editor says, was written by a gentleman lately deceased, who, from some misfortune in his personal relations, left England, and took up his residence in the Azores. It is, according to the Monthly Review, written with so much clearness of information and strength of argument, that it is probably the work of some eminent master, who chooses to conceal himself behind a peculiar style, and a fictitious tale. 8 A STATE OF THE EXPEDITION from Canada, as laid before the House of Commons by Lieutenant General Burgoyne, and verified by evidence; with a collection of authentic documents, and an addition of many circumstances which were prevented from appearing before the House by the prorogation of Parliament.
