Biblioteca HispanoAmericana Septentrional ó Catálogo y Noticia de los Literatos, que ó nacidos, ó educados, ó florecientes en la America Septentrional Española, han dado a luz algun escrito, ó lo han dexado preparado para la prensa. La escribia, el Doctor D. Jose Mariano Beristain de Souza, del claustro de las Universidades de Valencia y Valladolid, Caballero de la Orden Española de Carlos III. y Comendador de la Real Americana de Isabel la Católica, y Dean de la Metropolitana de Mexico. En México: Calle de Santo Domingo y Esquina de Tacuba Año de 1816-21. 3 vols., 4to, 2 l., Pp. xviii, 540; 1 l., 525; 1., 1366. 4871

Vol. 1. has, in addition to the above title, "Y la publica Don José Rafael Enriquez Trespalacios Beristain, Sobrino del Autor. Officina de D. Alexandro Valdés. 1819.'

"De Souza, is by far the most important work for the literature of New Spain that has ever been composed. It comprises 3687 biographies, and although, like most Spanish works of the kind, singularly uncritical, yet it is a perfect treasure as regards the cultivation of science and literature in Mexico and the adjacent countries. The work is extremely scarce, and appears to be altogether unknown in Europe."-LUDEWIG. See also [Harrisse] Bib. Am. Vet., pp. xx, xxi. Señor Icazbalceta, of the city of Mexico, announced a new edition, but I believe it has not been published.
