Charles Estienne or Stevens was a member of the celebrated 

 family of Paris printers and scholars of that name, and was himself a 

 printer and physician. This work appears to have been published 

 after he had ceased to print. The treatises, of which it is composed, 

 were originally written in Latin and collected under the title, 

 Prtxdium rusticum. The author afterwards translated them into 

 French under the title given above. John Liebault, by whom the 

 work was augmented, was his son in law. Liebault was " the first, 

 it is believed/ 1 says the author of " Wet days at Edgewood," to 

 introduce "to the European public, some of the mysteries of the 

 tobacco plant. 1 ' The first edition of the Prcedium rusticum is 

 Lutetian, 1554. 8vo.]
