Count Foucher de Careil, a French scholar
lately published four hitherto unknown ESSAYS by
Descartes, which were brought to light under very
curious circumstances. 1t appears that the manu-
scripts were sent by their author from Rouen to
Paris by the boat which, in the seventeenth century,
carried the mails up the Seine. This boat founder
ed when near its destination, the port de PEcole
and its contents being fshed up from the river
Descartes' writings, nearly illegibe, were sold as
waste paper, and, by a very lucky chance, fell into
the hands of Leibnitz, the German philosopher,
who was then in Paris, and who, after having de
ciphered and copied the contents, took his own
copy with him to Hanover. 1t was in the Royal
Library of the latter place that Count Careil dis
covered the papers, safely hidden among heaps of
other manuscripts, yet distinguished by a label in
the handwriting of Lebntz bearing the ins crption
'Copie lie JUN, 1916" The titles of the Essays
are, 'Some Considerations on Sciences in General
Notes on Algebra Experiments" and 'Olym'
piques, Discourse"
