A DESCRIPTION OF PITCAIRN'S ISLAND AND ITS 
INHABITANTS. With an Authentic Account of the Mutiny of the Ship 
Bounty, and of the subsequent Fortunes of the Mutineers. By John Barrow, 
Esq. 18mo. With Engravings. 
The author of this volume has brought into one connected view what had here- 
tofore appeared only in detached fragments, and some of these even not generally 
accessible. The story is replete with interest. We are taught by the Book of Sacred 
History that the disobedience of our first parents entailed upon our globe a sinful 
and suffering race ; in our own time there has sprang up from the most abandoned 
of this depraved family — from pirates, mutineers, and murderers — a little society 
which, under the precepts of that Sacred Volume, is characterized by religion, mo- 
rality, and innocence. The discovery of this happy people, as unexpected as it was 
accidental, and every thing relating to their condition and history, partake so much 
of the romantic as to render the story not ill-adapted for an epic poem. 
JOURNAL OF AN EXPEDITION TO EXPLORE THE 
COURSE AND TERMINATION OF THE NIGER. With a Narrative 
of a Voyage down that River to its Termination. By Richard and John 
Lander. In 2 vols. 18mo. With Portraits, Maps, &c. 
, With encouragement and assistance of a very limited description these adventurous 
young men embarked in an enterprise which in every previous instance had terminated 
fatally ; and all who knew the nature of the climate, and the grievous hardships they 
must encounter, predicted that the only intelhgence ever received of them would be 
some obscure rumour of their destruction. The narrative showrs how often these 
predictions were on the point of being verified. They were assailed by sickness, 
imprisoned in filthy huts, sold as slaves, plundered, abused, and nearly sacrificed to 
the cupidity and revenge of the ferocious savages. In spite of all these obstacles, by 
means of patience, perseverance, enthusiasm, and courage, they finally triumphed 
over every difficulty and completely gained the object of their mission, thus effecting 
the most important and apparently the most hopeless geographical discovery of the 
age.
