was, of course, upon LARGE PAPER, with a thousand inviting
additions, being much more complete than the similar copies
in _Cat. de Valliere_, no. 4467; and _Cat. de Crevenna_,
no. 5694, edit. 1789; although this latter was preferable
to the Valliere copy. Consult also the _Curiosites
Bibliographiques_, p. 77-8. The _second_ catalogue was
prepared by De Bure, and contains a very fine collection of
natural history, which was sold at the Hotel de Bullion. The
printed prices are added. The _third_ catalogue, which was
prepared by Santus, after the decease of Camus, contains
some very choice articles [many printed UPON VELLUM] of
ancient and modern books superbly bound.----CATALOGUE _des
livres rares. Par Guillaume de Bure, fils aine._ Paris,
1786, 8vo. We are told, in the advertisement, that this
collection was formed from a great number of sales of
magnificent libraries, and that particular circumstances
induced the owner to part with it. The books were in the
finest order, and bound by the most skilful binders. The
bibliographical notices are short, but judicious; and a good
index closes the catalogue. The sale took place at the Hotel
de Bullion.----CATALOGUE _fait sur un plan nouveau,
systematique et raisonne, d'une Bibliotheque de Litterature,
particulierement d'Histoire et de Poesie, &c._ Utrecht,
1776, 8vo., two vols. A judicious and luminous arrangement
of 19,000 articles, or sets of books; which, in the
departments specified in the title-page, are singularly
copious and rich.----CATALOGUS _Librorum rarissimorum, ab
Artis Typographicae inventoribus, aliisque ejus artis
Principibus ante annum 1500 excusorum; omnium optime
conservatorum_, 8vo., _Sine loco aut anno_. Peignot, who has
abridged Vogt's excellent account of this very uncommon and
precious catalogue, of which ONLY TWENTY-FIVE COPIES were
printed, has forgotten to examine the last edition of the
_Catalog. Libror. Rarior._, pp. 262-3; in which we find that
the collection contained 248 (and not 217) volumes. At the
end, it is said: "Pretiosissima haec Librorum Collectio,
cujusvis magni Principis Bibliotheca dignissima, constat
voll. ccxlviii." Consult the respectable references in Vogt,
_ibid._; also the _Bibliogr. Curieuse_ of Peignot, p.
15.----CERAN. _Catalogue d
