INDEX.

THIS Index is to the whole three volumes; it has been made with consider. able labor. The indices for the first two volumes were undoubtedly very unsatisfactory, not having been even arranged alphabetically; yet there may perhaps be those who will not think this one full enough. To have indexed every nama and fact in these volumes would have required a small volume, but we believe sufficient has been done to find every important fact or name. If not found under its especial name, it can be found by examination of the matter under the general headings.
