The Dictionary bearing, the abOve title.-may
really be considered' as highly-advantageous, to
the Student' of the,". Language of.Song;!Mr.
PETRONJ has, we understand, been , for . several.
years employed in the compilation of the,work;
and has at length, with the active co-operation of
Mr. DAVENPORT, succeeded in•completing
it differs from the Dictionaries hitherto in use,in.
as much as the accentuation of each word has
been carefully marked, and the. pronunciation
consequently much facilitated. It is also consi-:
derably more copious, containing 15,000 .more'
words than the celebrated Dictionary of riAnumk
This we consider to be highly advantageous, and-
the introduction of the technical terms of the lan-
guage must afford considerable assistance to the.
learner. We extract the following passage fromi
the announcement of the work, as it spews the
principle on which it is compiled :
" More than N years have now elapsed since the publication
of Baretti's Dictionary, which, although professedly compiled
from that of the Della Crusca, does not contain all the words
found even in that Vocabulary. This imperfection was ren-
dered still more serious, by the subsequent appearance of the
copious Dictionary of Alberti, which included .several thousand
words more than any other lexicographical work of the Italian
language. The meagreness and poverty of Baretti's compil-
ation thus became so apparent, that nothing but the want of a
superior work of the kind could have ensured it so.large a share
of public patronage. In the Dictionary now published by Mr.
Petronj, will be found, not only all the words contained in•the
Della Crusca, and Alberti, with their equivalents in French and
English, but also many new ones of recent introduction into
the language, together with the philological remarks of Monti,
one of the most celebrated Italian critics. Mr.' P. also, for the
first time, has marked the exact pronunciation of every Italian
word, the irregularities of verbs, the doubtful plurals of nouns,
&c. &c. Alr. Davenport has rendered the second volume par-
ticularly useful to Foreigners, by marking the accentuation of
every English word, and by the addition of a synopsis of
English Grammar, founded upon the principles of the best
modern Grammarians. An impartial Public will readily per-
ceive and appreciate the decided superiority of the present
Work over its predecessor, and the great advantages which it
affords to all who are desirous of perfecting themselves in the
harmonious language of Italy."
Our Readers will see by the preceding extract,

that the plan of thii work is very superior to that
generally adopted in. the compilation of Diction-
aries, and it only remains for us to observe that
the plan has been strictly adhered to,and reflects
great credit on the united efforts of Messrs.
PETRONJ and DIVEMPORT. The English por-
tion superintended by the latter Gentleman is
executed with great care, and is particularly
useful to Foreigners, from the marking of the
accentuation. We now dismiss it, with the con-
viction that our Readers will find it invaluable
in their Italian studies, just observing that Mr.
PETRUNJ could not have chosen a more able
coadjutor than Mr. DAVENPORT, who has long
possessed a high reputation as a Teacher of
Languages.
