Under the North American divisions, 
which are above designated by the 
letters B and C (territories east and 
west of the Mississippi), the author 
enumerates many names which are 
familiar to us; but he also mentions a 
great number of which we have seldom 
or never heard. As this region of the 
continent is the most mteresting to an 
American reader, we have thought it 
might be useful to give the whole list 
in detail; in order that any omissions 
or errors (if any such exist) may be 
supplied and corrected from that 
country. This extract will at the same 
time. give the reader an idea of the 
extraordinary minuteness of the whole 
work.
