No. 13. ADAMS, E. D. Influence of Grenville on Pitt's Foreign Policy, 17871798. 



Octavo, 79 pages. Published 1904. Price $0.50. 



This paper endeavors by means of published correspondence, especially the 

 Dropmore Papers, to answer the important question how far the foreign policy of 

 England during the prime ministry of William Pitt the younger, and especially 

 during the period when his cousin Lord Grenville was Secretary of State for 

 Foreign Affairs, was devised and controlled by Pitt, and how far his management 

 of foreign affairs during that critical period was influenced by Grenville.

The first historical enterprise of the Carnegie Institution was the making of an 

 inventory, more largely from an historical than from an administrative point of 

 view, of the governmental archives in Washington. The need of such an inventory 

 was peculiarly pressing on account of the want of concentration of archive material 

 in our national capital. Far from having effected such concentration as has been 

 brought about by the English government in its Public Record Office, our practice 

 has been, except in the case of the War Department, to leave the custody and ar- 

 rangement of the papers of each subdivision of a department to its administrative 

 chief, so that the archives of the government consist of at least a hundred separate 

 deposits, classified and managed in different ways and in different places.

This report is confined to the period from 1789 to 1840, and discusses the various

 terials, and their value to historical workers. Some specimen letters are printed

 can History, 1003. Octavo, xiv+172 pages. Published 1905. Price $1.00. 



This is a bibliography of books, pamphlets, and articles on United States his- 

 tory published during the year 1903. The endeavor is also made to include impor-

No. 137. ALLISON, W. H. Inventory of Unpublished Material for American Re- 

 ligious History in Protestant Church Archives and Other Repositories. 

 Octavo, vn+254 pages. Published 1911. Price $1.50. 



American religious history, if dealt with not in a denominational spirit but on 

 broad lines, is quite as important a part of the historian's concern as any other aspect 

 of the social history of the United States. Of the unprinted material for it, how- 

 ever, a large part has escaped the knowledge of workers because of being kept in 

 denominational or local repositories which have not had the same means of making 

 their treasures widely known as are possessed by governmental establishments and 

 public libraries. Therefore Mr. Allison was commissioned to make a personal ex- 

 amination of the manuscript materials for American religious history in the acces-
