Cravings" The late Henry Stevens,
of Vermont, whose work was done
principally in London. who describes
himself as "Student Of American His

Books" predicts that whites mann
in the annals Of English art is destined
to rank high. though it has hitherto
failed to be recorded in the art his

15S5-1ts6, while he was there with

English artists in Elizabeth's reign"
Thomas Harriet was one Of the
most eminent scholars of his age. No
name in English history deserves to
take precedence of his in scientific
achievement. A graduate Of ST. Mary's
Hall, Oxford, he was engaged by Sir
Walter Raleigh to reside with him
as his mathematical tutor and ad-
wiser in his maritime adventures. In
his capacity he was sent by Raleigh
to Roanoke with Lane, and upon his
return published ar London. in 1888,
"A Brief and true Report Of the
N~ew-found Land Of Virginia." This
work attracted wide attention both in
England and on the continent where
it was translated into Latin. The
Edinburg Review described it az a
work remarkable for the large views
it contains in regard to the extension
Of industry and commerce." and as
one Of the finest examples in existence
of statistical surveys on a large scale
Harriet, in spite Of weak health which
he complained, made him unable to
write or even think accurately. and
prevented his completing or publish
ing his work, won a place among the
great astronomers and mathematicians
Of the world. After his death some
Of his mathematical discoveries were
published by his friend, the Earl Of
northumberland. "Tbis work" we
are told. "embodies the inventions by
which Harriet virtually gave to Alge-
