Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of Brazil, Vol. 2
Paraguay, for'm. Beauchamp is no novice in'the art' of plagiarism, as M. De Puissaye, 'and others 'of his countrymen, may bear Witness. But he has not been able, with all his art, to conceal his ignor ance of the Portugueze language; for venturing to translate Escrivam da Fazma'a, he metamorphoses' a Secretary of the Treasury into an Historiographe'r; and he speaks of a disease in Brazil called Bex'igas, not knowing'that theibewigas'are the Sniall Pox.
