A review of Brownson's Life of Columbus would induce many of the readers of Cramer's Journal to purchase it. The leading publishers of the country—Harpers, Scribners, Houghton-Mifflin, Griggs, Crowell, Randolph, etc.—have favored Cramer with press copies of their historical and theological publications in his Quarterly. (The letter appears on a form letter and advertisement for Cramer's publication, the "Vierteljahrschrift fur das Gesammte Gebiet der Theologie".

The Propaganda will loan the artist the portrait of Cardinal Leonard Antonelli. The Rector of the North American College will loan him the portrait of Cardinal Bedini. She asks if Edwards wants Bedini painted as a cardinal or a prelate. The prelate would be most suitable as Bedini had nothing to do with the college as a Cardinal.

Brownson thanks Edwards for his order for "Columbus" which he sends by express. Owing to the number of books Edwards has bought from him, he charges only the wholesale price and will hereafter make the same discount on any orders for his books. The photographs were defective, but by having wash drawings made, the pictures do very well. He asks what Edwards and (Luigi) Gregori think of them. Edwards' suggestion to have (John Gilmary) Shea boom the work is good; but Brownson would like to have somebody else ask him, as Edwards knows how modest he is in such matters. He sends a copy of the "Columbus" ad, which Edwards offered to put in The Scholastic, for which service Brownson thanks him.

Shea, John G(ilmary):

to Father P(atrick) Corrigan:
(Hoboken, New Jersey)
His notes furnish little about Jersey City. Father William Burns appears as pastor in the Catholic Almanacs from 1835 to 1837 and died in October 1837. Father T.C. Levins calls him a Scotchman and mentions his preaching in the N.Y. Cathedral in June, 1834. Father Hugh Mohan was pastor of St. Peter's from 1839 to 1842. Father Walter Quarter, 1834-44, was assisted in 1845 by Father John Kenney. Father John Kelly was attending to an English neighborhood and Hoboken in 1846. In April 1834, R. Gilchrist, Cashier of the Morris Canal and Banking Company, lost some bank notes, etc. which were found and restored to him through Father John Power. The loss occurred in Jersey City, and this raises suspicion that Power attended Jersey City early in 1834.

Bayley thanks Seton for his letter and his offer of his pamphlet on the Seton family. He is a son of Richard Bayley, the second son of Dr. Guy Carleton Bayley, the late Archbishop, (James Roosevelt Bayley) being the oldest son. Guy Carleton Bayley was the son of Richard Bayley by his second wife Charlotte Amelia Barcley. He and his brother are the last of the branch in America. He is anxious to settle the question of origin beyond the power of a muddler like Baird. He is determined to unravel the mystery that seems to surround the personality of William Bayley, father of Dr. Richard and the circumstances of his coming to America. He wrote to Cardinal (James) Gibbons asking if the family tree the Archbishop had could be found; Gibbons wrote that it could not be found. Bayley would recompense a proper person for a systematic search.

There will be organized here, March 16, the Society of American Authors, embracing the best authors in American literature. Brownson is invited to attend. Clarke is going to take an active part in it and proposes to organize for the protection of literary property. What Brownson said in his letter of July 23 about the Brownson Monument Clarke will remember. When he last saw (James) Cardinal Gibbons, he urged him to advocate a professorship in the American Catholic University, rather than a statue. The one costs $50,000, the other $10,000 or less.

New York, (New York)
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, Mich(igan)
Metayer de Guichainville wishes to be excused for writing in French, but he is not yet familiar with English and believes that Brownson can translath easily. The library of the Catholic Club of New York has just purchased Brownson's interesting book, "The Life of Christopher Columbus, translated from the Italian after Tarducci." He has already recommended it to several of his friends and acquaintances, who certainly will wish to buy it. In this connection, he wishes to say that he possesses one of the original copies of the hand of Columbus, of which Tarducci speaks on pages 223-6. He has had photographs made of this precious autograph, several years ago, and has also taken out a copyright of the translation into English and French. As Brownson remarks, it is a matter of considerable interest, which the author and translator ignore, that there exists in New York one of the copies made by the great navigator, other than that actually at Genoa. He has had made only 100 copies of this illuminating and interesting autograph, but has always proposed to publish something on the subject of this precious manuscript document of Columbus. P.S.: He means the letter dated at Seville, April 2, 1502.

He thanks Brownson for his letter and will be happy to meet him in New York; he asks him to name the day and hour. He sends at the same time a journal in which Brownson may read one of his literary caprices, somewhat humorous, but true in all its details. His son recently advertised in the Herald for a stock of precious documents in Spanish and has so far received some and is cutting the seals of the albums and perceives the value of the language and the papers. Because he translates Spanish with difficulty, he does not have the time or the means to make extracts which would exhaust the value of such archives. His family — son and four daughters — are all scientists or collectors, using every moment philatelic, geologic, etc. movements. He hopes to continue his correspondence with Brownson.

Dorsey, A(nna) H(anson):
Washington, (District of Columbia)
to Father D(aniel) E. Hudson, C.S.C.):
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Dorsey describes a fire in her chimney. She was surprised Maurice (Francis) Egan was not the recipient of the medal. Was not (Ludwig) Windthorst's death splendid? Dorsey discusses the threats of the Italian politicians to send one of their warships to the mouth of the Mississippi. With King Humbert's bankrupt government, his demoralized army and the great distance, his ships could not harm us. He would be confronted with a million Catholics who would strike at the usurper of the Church. Dorsey was presented with facsimiles of the death warrants of Mary Stuart and Charles I, which the Lithographer of the United States Patent Office received from the Lithographer of the English Patent Office. Dorsey is mailing these to Hudson. (James) Edwards may have her photo for his own album. (Charles Warren) Stoddard is consumed by self-consciousness and a morbid sensibility. If our law givers ever give women the right to vote they'll reap a whirlwind. It is only a clique of women shrieking for suffrage. (John) Brisbane Walker, editor of the Cosmopolitan, delivered a lecture on the social problems of the day. Walker is a nephew of (James Gillespie) Blaine.

He wrote to (Patrick Ford), but has not had any answer. Austin should ask his uncle to send the photograph of himself that he promised a long time ago. He sends his regards to the family.

He will call at Notre Dame and Franciscus trusts Hudson will give him anything in the line of pictures at his disposal.
