TO 



COMMODORE SIR HOME POPHAM, Knt. 

 4'C. ^-c. 4^c. 



SIR ; 



With a Pride which, I venture 

 to assert, I feel, only in common with every 

 other British Subject, I take the liberty to 

 dedicate to you this Republication. 



It contains, with other interesting matter, 

 a slight sketch of Buenos-Ayres ; that Territory 

 which now is, and will most probably remain, 

 from your Foresight, Ability, and personal Bra- 

 very, one of the richest Jewels in the United 

 Crown. 



I AM proud. Sir, in thus publicly offering 

 my feeble tribute to your extraordinary Me- 

 rits, to assure you of the respectful Esteem, 

 high Regard, and sincere Friendship, with 

 which 



I have the honour to subscribe myself 

 Your ever obliged. 



Obedient and humble Servant, 



JOHN STOCKDALEo 



London,
