1823. Novr. 29.
J.B. to M. Dumont

The history of that Review is, in No. 1,
brought down about half way to the present
time. It is by one of the two to whom you destined
a copy of Preuves that the articles under
this head are and will be written A propos
of these copies. Upon my husband's shewing those lines of your letter
to Bassange here, he said he was not in connection with
Bassange frère, and on that account declined giving me him
the 2 copies for the 2 persons, but lent me us 2 for them
and promised spontaneously to write about it to Bassange
frère. N.B. I We had bought 6 of him, but this I
believe I was mentioned in the letter that was delivered to you.

I wish you could point out to us some mode
of sending an odd Book or two so to you: with two or three
Demon pamphlets. A comical Book has lately made
it's appearance here under the title of "not Paul, but
Jesus", by Gamalice Smith Esq. Inquiries who this Mr.
Smith is have hitherto proved fruitless: Some people
will have it that it is by the pamphleteer: it is wonderful
with what plausibility Mr Smith endeavours to
persuade us that St Paul was constantly disbelieved
by all the Christians of Jerusalem, as well as by the Holy
Apostles. The Book contains 400 pages, with the addition
of Tables, for the purpose of bringing under one
view, the different accounts of St Paul's conversion
and some other matters. Mr. Smith says that all
that is good and really belongs to what is called Chistianity
came from Jesus alone, and is in the four
Gospels; and that all that has made so much discension,
belongs to St Paul, and to him alone,
