INDUSTRIAL GUIDES.

This is by far the best of the " Guides to Service ;"
containing not merely full instructions touching the duties of a
groom, from stable-helper to the pinnacle of his profession,
but plain directions for riding, driving, choosing, and treating
horses. The chapters on the " points" of the animal, and the
different objects to be considered according to the work required
from him, are valuable practical hints. It is not a groom's
guide, but a jockey's vade mecum.—Spectator.
We have, of late, had divers questions put to us as to the best
mode of managing horses in sickness and in health—and in this
little volume now before us we find satisfactory answers, written
in a plain and familiar style, but full of solid information, evi-
dently from the pen of a gentleman fully and practically ac-
quainted with his subjects. Earnestly do we recommend it to
the perusal of master as well as man—to the former, that he may
know what ought I o be done by his servant ; to the latter, that
he may know how to do it. Driving be double or single harness
—riding, and the general treatment of horses, are all intro-
duced ; in fact, everything calculated to enlighten a novice in
the manag ernent of his horses is clearly laid down, so that he
who runs may read—and no man canbe entrusted with the ma-
nagement of a horse, or in the possession of one, who can read,
ought to be without it.—Bell's Life in London.

IV.
The LAST STEP to FRENCH : or, the Principles of
French Grammar. Displayed in a series of short lessons, each
of which is followed by questions and exercises, wit'l the versi-
fication. Price 3s. 6d. bound in cloth.
M. LE PAGE'S arrangement is in harmony with nature,
for who would think of teaching a child grammar the moment
it begins to articulate ? By the use of these volumes a person
of ordinary capacity, with a moderate share of application, may
easily acquire that key to the whole Continent (the French
language) without incurring the expense, loss of tine, and risk
of morals, in leaving England to acquire it.
To schools and private teachers these clever little volumes
must be invaluable.—Monthly Review.
