The little IJle de Sable, or IJland of St. Paul, which was feen in the fame track, in 1761, by the fhip le Vaillant, commanded by M. Bouvet, is laid down from Sailing Directions for the Eajl Indies, London, 1781, page 7. This pofition is con- formable, as to latitude, to that which has been given it upon the general chart, which is joined to the relation of the third voyage of captain Cook, o^ 25' fouth, but it differs in 35' as to longitude. Its longitude weft from Paris would be 21025', according to the Sailing Directions, which give it after the journal of M. Bouvet, but it is carried to 20° 45', in order that it may agree with the cor- redlion of Pennedo. See note 2. 5. IJland of Fernando de Noro7iha. This ifland is laid down conformably to the latitude and the longitude determined by captain Cook, Latitude - - - 3° 53' o" fouth. Longitude - - - 34 53 50 weft of Paris. See Cook's fecond. Voyage, vol. II, pages 278 and ^79 of the original. The diftance of this ifland from the ncareft part of the coaft of Brazil being fixed between fixty an(^.
