In A short Preface to this volume we aro told-
that it was written " solely with the design of
hring.useful to such as are -called upon to go7at
an early period of life,' to India, and who, there-
fore; cannot have had time to wake themselves
acquainted with even the .i;eneral putline-of the
history, religion, or. science of that, Country ;''
and, idthe same Preface, allope is expressed that'
"the geuvral sketch here •presguted jttay,not be
found uninteresting or uninstructing."

When pretentions so liumble are urgeil, and
from a female pen toO, it is with more than com-
mon plt4sure that we feel justly warranted is
pronouncing, from the Cathedral of Criticism, that
the Sketch is both interesting and instructive.
The authorities from which it is c*Pinpiled arc of
the first 'order.; its execution is able and judl-.
ciousi its :arrangement lucid and intelligent ;-
and the Etchings anti Map with which it is illus-
trate& are appendages at once ornamental and
useful

A Work.of this kind does not require, many.
,critical remarks. The youthful Candidates, for
fortune or fame in our Ea,tert, poSsessions utay
consult it with great advantage. It will not only
inform them upon roost of -the topics with. which
ithey ought to he. acquainted; but n ill serve asli
• guide to inore learneil. and laborious investig-a,a
tions of the -subjects, the rudiments and essential-
parts of which it *contaitis In' its own pages.—
There is not extant a publittftion of the kind which
prefeis a big,her claim to the attention of the class
for whose use it is particularly calcidated.

.it'
ought to be perused,

vidual who emu& -nutter this denomination. Alter-
a general Introduction, the four principal, and se-
'vet al of the minor languages of India, are briefly
ho, clearly desCribed; and in the three next letters,.
the prosody, poetry, mythology, and otherlitera.;
tore of the country, arc commented 'upon with.
great ingenuity and ability.: In this pUrtion or-
the volume, the fine ans,; nitisic; sculpture,
piinting, architecture, as well as the philosophy
of this extensive and extraorAinary.. quarter of
the earth, are treated with a due share Of-regara.:
In the Sixth Letter the morals,- usiges, laws, aPd.

tenanting perspicuity' ; tlitin succeeds equally. •

which has existed in the Eastern climes, among

nature of the information she has tb.giVe; and we
do not remember to have read any where so con,'
