Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Discourse Delivered Before the Historical Society of Louisiana, January 13, 1836 Dear Sir: The undersigned have been deputed a Committee by the Historical Society of Louisiana, to express to you the high gratification which the Society has derived, from the very able and instructive discourse you delivered before it on the 13th instant; and also, to communicate their unanimous desire, that you would furnish the Committee with a copy for publication. For the accomplishment of all the objects embraced within the scope of its labors, the Society deems it a matter of high importance, that its plans and means and promised usefulness, should be clearly developed and widely diffused. Through the publication and general circulation of the discourse, it confidently anticipates the attainment of this chief good. The luminous synopsis it presents of the objects aimed at, and the means of attainment; the felicitous selection with which it has grouped together, or tastefully interwoven amidst dry statistics, some of the most curious and thrilling incidents of our early history, added to the attractive grace of the composition, will at once commend the performance to the admiration of the scholar; and the Society itself, to the generous support of that enlightened public, who are to reap the reward of all its toils and achievements.
