I Here Found Paulus Omnibamus, Who Had Left Venice Three Months Before Me, Under The Orders Of Our Illustrious Republic.

[1] In the latter part of this journey, the date of his return to Venice is the 10th of April.

- E.

[2] Called Tarvisin, in the original. - E.

[3] Called Conigiano, in the edition of Bergeron. - E.

[4] This small city stands on a small river which runs into the Werta, at the western extremity of what was Poland, about sixty-seven miles from Poznan. It is called Messaricie in the original. - E.

[5] Lausicie in the original. - E.

[6] Named Chio in the original. The second name, Magrano, is afterwards called Magraman by Contarini, or his French translator. - E.

[7] Named Chio in the original, but which must necessarily be Kiow, or Kieu, now belonging to Russia. The three formerly mentioned stages Jusch, Aitomir, and Belligraoch, must either be villages of too little importance to find a place in geographical maps, or their names are so corrupted as to be unintelligible. The direct road from Lublin to Kiow, passes through the palatinates of Russia, Wolhynia, and Kiow, provinces of ci-devant Poland, now annexed to the Russian empire. - E.

[8] The original says April, but attention to the context distinctly points out this necessary correction. - E.

[9] From this circumstance it evidently appears that the journey from Kiow had hitherto been on the right or west of the Dnieper or Boristhenes, through the country of the Nogais Tartars, now forming the western portion of the Russian province of Catharinoslau; and we may suppose the wide part of that river they had now to cross to have been somewhere about Cherson.
