This translation of Hector St. John's Farmer's Letters (No. 3, 1782,) was
made by the author himself. The work is highly recommended in two
letters, by way of introduction, from M. de Lacretelle. Reprinted, with
additions, in 1787. Boucher de la Richarderie says that the author had
been so long unaccustomed to his native language that his translation
abounds with Anglicisms, "which," he

says, however, give greater
energy to his expressions."

The author of this work (M. Hilliard D'Auberteuil) says, that after having translated the View of the history of Great Britain during the Administration of Lord North (No. 11, of 1782), he thought that he might substitute in its place a less prolix and more complete history, preserving all that was useful, agreeable, and interesting in the English work; and adding an account of events which would comprise a complete account of the American war.

The unfortunate Loyalists of the Southern States, who took refuge in Florida, under the promise of protection from the British government, found themselves at the peace in the hands of the Spaniards, by whom they were ordered to quit the country.

Cadell,
This tract, which was originally intended only for America, was translated
into French by the celebrated Mirabeau. The doctor speaks of the
American revolution as "a revolution which opens a new prospect in
human affairs, and begins a new æra in the history of mankind,— a revo-
lution by which Britons themselves will be the greatest gainers, if wise
enough to improve properly the check that has been given to the despot-
ism of their ministers, and to catch the flame of virtuous liberty which has
saved their American brethren." He uses very strong language with
respect to religious establishments, the spirit of which he condemns as
contrary to the spirit of Christianity; and he hopes that no such monster
will ever be known in America, as human authority in matters of religion.
