general treatise upon the colonies collectively, constituting a most reliable introduction to a study of colonial history. Leroy-Beaulieu's "De la colonisation chez les peuples modernes" is an elaborate survey of colonies and colonial systems of the world by a political economist of high repute. Merivale's "Lectures" is a study of the economic features of colonization and colonies. Sir G. C. Lewis's "Essay on the government of dependencies" is a discussion of the historical and political principles of colonization. Heeren's "Political system of Europe and its colonies" is one of the earlier scientific studies of colonization, with copious bibliographical references. The chapter on colonies in Adam Smith's "Wealth of nations" is a scientific study of the economic value of dependencies. The handbooks or annuals of various colonial governments are useful works of reference for statistical information. The "Diplomatic and consular reports" issued at intervals by the foreign office of Great Britain embody information upon the history, the administration, and the commercial interests of British and foreign colonies. The "Consular reports" of this country also contain similar material. The current statistics of the colonies are set forth in "Statistical abstracts for the several colonial and other possessions of the United Kingdom," published by the British Government. These "Abstracts" are incorporated in the Parliamentary sessional papers. The "Board of Trade Journal" published by the Government Board of Trade, London; and the "Imperial Institute Journal" are current sources of information upon the trade, resources, and administration of the English colonies. The "Proceedings of the Royal Colonial Institute" is a repository of many valuable papers upon the colonial interests of Great Britain. The "Imperial and Asiatic Quarterly " deals with the literature as well as the politics of the colonies. The periodicals, "Questions Diplomatiques et Coloniales," the "Revue Maritime et Coloniale," and the "Bulletin de la Société des Études Coloniales," are mainly devoted to French colonial interests. 99 66 The following German periodicals deal with colonial subjects, particularly with German colonies: "Deutsches Kolonialblatt," "Deutsche Kolonialzeitung, Organ der Deutschen Kolonialgesellschaft,' Deutscher Kolonial-Kalender," "Jahresbericht der Deutschen Kolonialgesellschaft," and the "Koloniales Jahrbuch."
