Syntax, and the Appendix, each of which are sold separate, or in
one thick volume 12mo. new eolition, neatly bound, 10s. 6d.
We may take upon ourselves to state that no French Grammar
hitherto published contains so much useful matter. We besides
think the plan of his work admirable, as it admits of four :Efferent
parts, each part being complete in itself, and thereby allowing of
its being had separately, according to the progress of the learner.
The rules are short and clear, and the examples and exercises cal-
culated to furnish the pupil with colloquial phrases. In a word, we
perceive that this work is the produce of a man well versed in the
art of teaching."—Monthly Review.

FRENCH PHRASES and IDIOMS for BEGINNERS.

L'ECHO DE PARIS.
A Selection of Familiar Phrases which a Pupil would daily hear
said around him if he were living among French people. By M.
A. P. LEPAGE.

Amongst hundreds of excellent works on the French Language,
not one enables the English to converse with natives when in
France, because their familiar conversation abounds in idioms,
hitherto only learnt on the spot when too late.
The Echo de Paris fills up that chasm, for the learner will find
in it all the idioms and chit chat of the French 'n a very novel and
entertaining shape.

Introductory Grammar, and interspersed with various Grammati-
cal Notes and other Explanations. Adapted for Schools and Pri-

" This is an exceedingly clever work, and contains the best ru-
dimental Latin Grammar we have seen, although it is modestly
insinuated under another title. We have no hesitation in saying
an intelligent boy would learn more from this book in a week than
he possibly could in quadruple the period from any other we have
seen. —United Kingdom.
