This work is entirely made up from the stere- 

 otype plates of the same author's Oneota. No 

 part of the text was reset. By cutting some 

 of the plates and fitting them together, the sev- 

 eral articles of each series were made contin- 

 uous. The selection and arrangement, however, 

 were very carelessly done. Some articles were 

 cut off in the middle of a sentence, or divided 

 and inserted in diff'erent places. In one of the 

 linguistic articles (ijp. 266-288), one entire page 

 belonging before 288 was omitted, and two 

 other pages (286 and 287) were transposed. 

 None of these errors and omissions are corrected 

 in the later editions of ].848, 1851, and 1853, de- 

 scribed below. 



The following list of pages in this edition 

 gives the correspondmg pages of Oneota in 

 parentheses: 5-9 (22-26 upper part), 10-16 (66- 

 72 upper part), 17-22 (148-153 upper part), 23-29 

 (267-273), 30-40 (364-374 upper part), 41-50 (109- 

 118 upper part), 51-56 (173-178 upper part), 57- 

 63 (200-206), 64-70 (lower part of 129-135 upper
