'1 'HE CLASS BOOK; or Three Hundred and
Sixty five READING Lassos. for Schools of either Sex:
combining, with the element* of an knowledge, a greater Number
of reading Exercifes, from the belt Authors, than are to be found
in any other work of the fansg defcription: every lelim having a
clearly defined objedt, and teaching tome principle of kience or
morality, or Come important truth.
By The Rev. DAVID BLAIR.
The Author has been ftimulated to compile thefe Exercifes in
reading, by the obfervation, that, although there at prefent cxift
leveret excellent books for teaching Reading and Elocution, the
object of them does not extend beyond the mere combination of
words ; and they coon almoft entirely of pillages, faceted with
reference to beauty of compolition only. In the prefent work, Ele-
gance has been united with Utility ; Sound and Senfe have been
ttudioufly combined; and Eloquence has always been adapted to
the purpofes of ;nitration. In thort, every one of the [tabus in
,this Clefs Book is Calculated to make the Young Reader both
wises and smelt.
The Author's own experience as a Teacher fuggefted to him the
divinon of his book into three hundred and fifty five lcffons, or
one for every day in the year ; in each of which the fubjedt matter
is generally finifhecl within the tunable length of a leffon. "l'hit
divifion, it is obvious, will be attended with an equal degree of
convenience to the Tutor and Pupil in the afloat Winds of a pub
lie Seminary.

thi. great County in Parliament, demand* the expillsam of my
warmcft thank.; and at the fame time that I pride mit& mate •
important Ration In which you have again plac. d me I cannot rat
from congratuhiting you on the manner in which this conteft has '406010
been comluded. The temper and mokration that have uniformly
prevailed; are fuch a. have hitherto been without a precedent in a
County Itledtion, protraded to the end of the eighth day; and
fuch as will iurtifh an esautple for future con tett!, to other Cotta-
ties, and to pefterity.
To fay that I am now impreffed with a more grateful fenfe of
your kindnef. than on a former occafion, would be to proles lime-
thing droner than was perhaps ftrialy true; but it N impoiLble
for me to look at the ttate of the poll, without feeling the warmeß
emotions of aff:etion and gratitu.le. I will t nthavour to return itt
Tome meafure the obligations wh;elt I owe you by an unremitting
attention to the private bufinefs of the County, a,d to the public
concerns of the nation; and by fupporting on all occrilons the
chara!ler of an honcit, eonfeientious, and imicT;ldent Member
of Patliameut. I have the honour to he, Gentlemen,
Your obliged and faith:id fetvaiit, •

THE COMMITTEE in London fur rdiing a .

.pences of Mr. WILBERFORCE'S Election, &Ikons of Polaris..

what are the real cireuniltances which juftify an apical to the pub-
lic at large, and what are the principles and exeltdive °hied of the
London Committee in the part which they have taken, refolve,.. •
that Mr. Wiiberforee's Addrefs to the Yorkihire Eledtors, which
appeared in the York Chronicle fur May 21,1807, be reprinted in
the principsi Public Papers.
" GLNTLEMIN, York, May 20. 1807.
" The peculiarity of my preterit circumitanees renders k ne-
ceffary for tae to addrefs you once more ; and to lay Lefore you,
with the utniuft Simplicity and fairnefs; the fitincium in which I
am placed.
' After having paffed through various parts of our great county,
and received returns from thole, which, tot want of time, I could
not vilit in perfon, I have been affurcd that a great majority of the
Freeholders is favourable to my caufe ; and I cannot bring myfeif
to believe that the Freeholders of Yorkfhire a• e capable of break-
ing their word with me. Therefore, notwithßanding the Sheriff's
having decided that the thew of knla was in favour of the two
other CandiJates, I have thought it right to demand a poll ; molt
Solemnly re affirming the declaration which I made in the Cattle
Yard, that were I not firmly convinced that the fence of the Free-
, holders is decidedly in my favour, I would not put, I will not fay
I my Supporters, but even my opponents, to the expence and trou-
tole of a coate2. But, Gentlemen, though fo far as votes are con-
eerned.l look forward to the iffue of this cont. ft without difmsy,
yet I mutt frankly millets to you, that I cannot altogether bona
from my mindiapprehenfions of another fort. From the immente
extent of our Couticy,ar.d the prodigious number of the Frechol-
&reit is obvious, that to pay the cape:ice of tranfporting in the
ufual manner, all my great majority, would far exceed the powers
of a private Gentleman': fortune ; you will obferve, that if the
Freeholders, who vote both for Mr. Lake:llea and Lord Milton,
give me each their Second vote, which. fo far as I can judge, is the
general difpofition, my ezpences mutt Ire double of theirs
" This,*Gentlernen,ie au eapence which I cannot undertake to
deny ; for, to fay nothing of dome/tic claims, I mould nut with
comfort enter the Houk of Commons in a fituation which might
fut,jedt me to the imputation of whiling to render my feat in Par-
liament fubfervient to the reparation of toy broken fortunes. The
kindncfs of many of my more particular friends has prompted
them to fubfcribe (I had almoft Paid too liberally) cowards my
fupport. But (excute me, Gentlemen, if I Speak plainly) a tar more
general effort mutt be made, or elfe I mutt retire from the conteft,
with a confiderable majority in my favour. A comparatively (troll
minority will then fend your Reprefentatives to Parliament ; and,
if, whet' the fente of the County is fo clear, you give up/he hope
of carrying that feat into effedt, on account of the exruce, is it
too much to fay that the Independence of Yorkshire is loft for
ever ? But the effort which is now required, though too great for
a private man, would he eafy to this great County. If the Free-
holders of all ranks would contribute, each ac to his means,
towards affcrting the ludependence of t may, Conic perhaps
by coming to poll at their own charge entirely ; others doing it In
part ; Come, fuppofc, forming a local fund, or helping to execute
tome plan for conveying the voters at a cheap rate—no more would
be required. but it 'is nut for me now to enter into detail—l
only with to imprefs on your minds the neare oild the importance
of the (scullion which calls or your exertions I only ant the aid
of thole who believe that a great majority of the Freeholders is
friendly to my caufe ; and they, I trutt,will have the dikernment
to fee, and the Spirit to feel, that to Suffer a comparalvely (mall
minority of Freeholders to choofe a Member, iu oppoliion to. Lac
general fenfe, would be to toffee the County to CM, perhaps, for
ever, into dependence and infignificanee.
" I am, Gentlemen*,
