Reise durch einige Deutsche Provinzen, von Hollenberg. Stendal, 1782. 8vo. Architecture and mechanics are the topics of these travels. The following travels relate to the Hartz: 338. Geographische und Historische, Merkwurdigkeften des Ober Hartz. Leip. 1741. 8vo. Reise nach dem Oberhartz. Von J.C. Sulzer. Inserted in a collection of travels published by J. Bernouilli.

These two works are chiefly valuable for that which gives interest and value to all old travels; as describing manners, &c. at a distant period. Neueste reise durch Spanien. Von Volkman. Leipsic, 1785. 2 vols. 8vo. Arts, manufactures, commerce and economy. Nieuve Historikal en Geographische Reise beschryving van Spanien en Portugal. Don W. Van den Burge. Hague, 1705. 2 vols. 4to.

A "spoken book" is always a poor book, just as lectures read are poor however well prepared. Published courses of lectures are my detestation. Cotta is also printing a volume of mine in German, "Physikalische geographische Erinnerungen." Many unpublished things concerning the volcanoes of the Andes, about currents, etc. And all this at the age when one begins to petrify! It is very rash!
