At this point Cuming's tour is concluded. In order to give completeness to the work, however, the first editor added the journal of a voyage taken in 1799 by a gentle man oi accurate observation, a passenger in a New Orleans boat.' From just above Bayou Pierre, this anonymous author departed on the ninth of February for New Orleans, where he arrived on the twenty-third of the same month. Embarking therefrom March 12, he reached Philadelphia after a month's voyage via Havana and the Atlantic shore. His narrative is far less effective than that of Guming.
