fail to prove extremely useful. The first volume, in parti-

peetible Treatise. We have been much entertained and in-
strudied by the Second Volume ; though we can; do little
more than state in general terms; that tbedeseriinions,
in ge-
neral, full and satisfattory. This part of the Mechanics
we consider to be highly.useful ; and, indeed, there does not
nciw occur to our minds any English Work of the same plan
and extent. The plates are neatly executed, and by a very
judicious arrangement placed by- themselves in a separate
volumo.'!-7Critical Review, May, 1896.

N. B. The above-mentioned Series of easy and simplcele-

Every-perSOrt must have been struck with the absurdity of
the practice Of putting the" present volurninons,, tedious, and
perplexing French Grammars and their Auxiliaries into the
haud:i of C. hldren. Well educated Frenchmen are themselves
unacquainted with halt the subtleties which, ,by means of the
previously -e&isting rench and -Bnglish' G rammars,. are at-
tempt,cl to-be iltint to Children in English Schools. The
Abbe Boisnt's Books, -on the contrary, contain nothing but
