Excerpt from Historical Collections: Collection and Researches Made by the Michigan Pioneer and Historical Society, Vol. 13: Including Reports of Officers and Papers Read at the Annual Meeting of 1888 Volume XII. Will be found rich in historical matter, consisting as it does of two classes of matter only: one comprising an installment of the papers from the Canadian archives at Ottawa, the other 00pies of documents in the possession of the old Historical Swiety at Detroit. The value of both these collections is too well known to need enlargement upon at the present time. The present volume comprises the proceedings of the last annual meeting together with papers read on that occasion, and other contributions of a miscellaneous nature, embracing many subjects of interest. It will be noticed that some of these contributions have been for some time in the hands of the Committee, awaiting an opportunity for publication, more mat ter having accumulated than could be immediately utilized. The general historical value of these articles, however, though some local allusions may seem a trifle out of date, was deemed too great to justify their exclusion. The Committee anticipate that the present volume will prove a source of pleasure to the pioneers especially, to whom it will many times recall the experiences of themselves and others during the early days of our commonwealth, while to others it cannot fail to be a source of profit as illustrative of times and events of which the present generation can have but little practical concep tion. A large amount-of valuable matter on hand still awaits dissemination by means of printer's ink. The next volume, which it is expected will be promptly issued, will consist almost entirely of Canadian papers relating to the War of 1812, and the Committee feel that all lovers of historical research may justly await its appearance with enthusiastic expectation.

That these volumes have been and are very interesting, both to Michigan and Canada, is not surprising, from the fact, it is remem bered, that for a number of years it was uncertain whether Michigan was to be treated as an American or British Province.

Excerpt from Historical Collections and Researches Made by the Michigan Pioneer and Historical Society, Vol. 37 A set of letters written by William Johnston, a half-breed Indian, was found among the Schoolcraft papers. These are here printed, together with many interesting and carefully prepared notes by Mr. J. S. Fox, because of their value in connection with the history of the fur trade in the late years of the Territory, and their importance in Indian history and customs. The Territorial Papers, chiefly from the. Schoolcraft collection, are made up of the official correspondence of the governors of the Territory from 1831-1886. They deal with early politics, Indian questions, the Ohio and Michigan boundary, elections and appointments. These have also been annotated by Mr. Fox. The Bond Papers are more miscellaneous in character, being letters gathered from several sources, giving touches of local color, official com missions, customs reports, and lighthouse gossip. References to the dis satisfaction felt under the rule of Hull and Woodward are found in these letters as are also personal allusions to characters of minor importance.
