THE SPANISH CONQUEST 

 IN AMERICA, and its Relation to the 

 History of Slavery and to the Government of 

 Colonies. By ARTHUR HELPS. 



This book is based upon " The Conquerors of 

 the New World and their Bondsmen," two 

 volumes of which were published some year* 

 ago. The author has, however, been obliged 

 to extend its plan and enlarge its form. The 

 publication of "The Conquerors of the New 

 World "will therefore not be continued; hut 

 purchasers of the volumes already published 

 may receive, on returning them to the pub- 

 lishers, a copy of the first volume of "The 

 Spanish Conquest in America," which com- 

 prises, as nearly as could be arransed, in a new 

 and enlarged form, the matter therein con- 

 tained.
