35. PALGRAVE, Sir FRANCIS. _The Merchant and the Friar_. London, 1837.

The Merchant is Marco Polo, who is supposed to visit England, after his return from the East, and to become acquainted with the Friar Roger Bacon.

The book consists chiefly of their conversations on many subjects.

It does not affect the merits of this interesting book that Bacon is believed to have died in 1292, some years before Marco's return from the East.

43. KHANIKOFF, NICOLAS DE. _Notice sur le Livre de Marco Polo, edite et commente par M.G. Pauthier_. Paris, 1866. Extracted from the _Journal Asiatique_. I have frequently quoted this with advantage, and sometimes have ventured to dissent from it.

A meritorious essay, containing good remarks on the comparison of different Texts.

48. KINGSLEY, HENRY. _Tales of Old Travel renarrated_. London, 1869.

This begins with Marco Polo. The work has gone through several editions, but I do not know whether the author had corrected some rather eccentric geography and history that were presented in the first. Mr. Kingsley is the author of another story about Marco Polo in a Magazine, but I cannot recover the reference.

49. NOTES AND QUERIES for CHINA AND j.a.pAN. This was published from January, 1867, to November, 1870, at Hong-Kong under able editors.h.i.+p, and contained some valuable notes connected with Marco Polo's chapters on China.
