A subscription form for the Galveston Bay and Texas Land Company which sought to attract colonists to land granted to Lorenzo de Zavala Joseph Vehlein and David G. Burnet in southeast Texas in the early 1830s. The present form is completed for one of the principal land owners in the scheme Lorenzo de Zavala and is signed by him on the verso. Zavala went on to play a major role in the Texas Revolution and became the first Vice President of the Republic of Texas. "The Galveston Bay and Texas Land Company was founded in New York on October 16 1830 for the purpose of colonizing the lands assigned to the empresarios Joseph Vehlein David G. Burnet and Lorenzo de Zavala. The colonization contracts covered an area in East Texas lying east of the San Jacinto River and south of a line running twenty leagues north of Nacogdoches 3743163 acres. The company a real-estate promotion firm with agents land counselors surveyors and salesmen did not own land itself but sold scrip that allowed the settlers simply to move into the area allotted to the three empresarios. There the settlers had to complete all requirements of the Mexican colonization law before they could obtain title to land" - Texas State Handbook Online. "The certificate lists by date the four grants there were two grants to Vehlein to the three empresarios and gives the boundaries of the resulting tract. At the end is a provision that the location of the land is to be under the supervision of the agent 'residing on the land' of the Trustees who on surrender of the scrip reports to the Commissioner appointed by the Government who issues titles 'Subject to the payments required by the Laws of the State'" - Streeter.

1691S13100Florence:: Gio: Filippo Cecchi 1691. 1691. Large 4to. xv CCLXIX 20 pp. Half-title title printed in red & black title vignette 75 copper engraved plates numerous woodcut initials and head & tailpieces index; prominent waterstains to corners lacks the portrait of Cosimo some copies have the portrait others do not. Later quarter vellum marbled boards black leather gilt-stamped spine label vellum tips. Very good. Second edition first printed in 1666/7. This marvelous work contains descriptions of experiments on air-pressure freezing of water an early account of Torricelli's invention of the barometer thermometer electrical and magnetic experiments measurements of the velocity of sound and light and experiments on heat and cold. It contains many large full-page engravings of experimental apparatus used to conduct these early experiments in natural physics. The engravings on pages iii vi viii and xiii show Torricelli's thermometer with a column of liquid and capsules of various density liquids that will either float of sink depending upon the surrounding temperature. Also known as a "termometro lento" slow thermometer this clever instrument is still marketed as a functioning curiosity today. / As the mechanism of the atmosphere exerting continuous pressure on the surface of the earth was unknown at that time the experiments using a barometer and bell jar pp. xxiv-xxxi seem rather naïve to us today. The members of the Academy couldn't determine why the mercury in the column didn't fall once the barometer was 'shielded' from the surrounding atmosphere. What they failed to realize is that the air pressure inside the bell jar remained the same as the outside since it had not been evacuated. Page lxxxxix depicts a curious experiment in which an organ pipe and a bellows to blow air through a pipe are encased in a vacuum chamber. The experiment demonstrated that when the chamber was evacuated the pipe no longer made sound even though the bellows were still forcing 'air' through the apparatus therefore showing that air at normal pressure was a necessary component to produce sound. / The Academy of Experiments was founded in Florence in 1657 and flourished for only ten years 1657-1667 and presents the first group effort at scientific investigation on the part of scientists including such original minds as Viviani Borelli Steno Redi Cassini and Torricelli. Its moving spirits were two of Galileo's most distinguished disciples Viviani and Torricelli. The necessary financial support came from the two Medicis the Grand Duke Ferdinand II of Tuscany and his brother Leopold; both of them had studied under Galilei. More than a decade before the formal institution of the Academy the two Medici brothers had started a laboratory well equipped with such scientific apparatus as was then obtainable. :: Wolf. / "This collection contains papers describing experiments on light sound and electricity.

1717FGN1-E-9Rome: Plachi 1717. Vellum. Very Good. 13" by 9". None. An extremely scarce copy presumed first edition of Cozza's dogmatic histories on the heresies of St. Augustine. Lorenzo Cozza 1654 1729 was an Italian friar Minor Observantist Roman Catholic Cardinal and theologian. In his order he filled the positions of lector of theology in the convent of Santa Maria in Aracoeli lector of philosophy in the convent of Saint Diego Naples 1676 and lector of theology in the convent of Viterbo where he also became guardian. He then returned to the convent of Aracoeli as lector of theology and later in 1696 guardian. For five years Cozza was master of Francesco Antonio Placidi friar Minor and future Saint Thomas of Cori. Cardinal Giulio Cesare Sacchetti chose Cozza as his confessor and theological adviser thus giving rise to a friendship that lasted through life. St Augustine was one of the most prolific Latin authors in terms of surviving works and the list of his works consists of more than one hundred separate titles. They include apologetic works against the heresies of the Arians Donatists Manichaeans and Pelagians texts on Christian doctrine notably De Doctrina Christiana On Christian Doctrine exegetical works such as commentaries on Book of Genesis the Psalms and Paul's Letter to the Romans many sermons and letters and the Retractationes a review of his earlier works which he wrote near the end of his life.

Lorenzo Gambara born in Brescia studied arts and letters at the University of Padua. While he was still young he moved to Rome where he was linked to the papal court and was in service to Cardinal Alessandro Farnese and later Pope Gregory XIII. Virtually Gambaras entire life had been encompassed by the culture of the papal court a place where he also made his name as a poet. One of Gambaras major driving beliefs was that the popular myths in ancient poetry had pagan roots. Wanting to write something to counteract the celebration of depraved literature in his time Gambara wrote this treatise to discourage Christian poets from using pagan symbols in their work. He dedicated this work to some of the greatest themes in Christian liturgy such as the Annunciation Epiphany Pentecost and Christmas. Adams G-186; Brunet II 1474; Graesse III 22.
