Te above work, than which, very few of the pre-
fent canary evince greater ability. more intim ate
knowledge of the fobjelt, tie a more pure, concife.
and elegant dialog, has, within thefe tew slays, been
filkitsiited to the public tinning. It entoprebends
a grand f!Oem in a compafs compata,ively fmall.—
The MAW' elm in regard to the points of difei-
4ffitse lilted in his preface "is direited to imps&
'the neeeffity and to flagged the means of render-
Ing a (Adler, proud as a (tidier, and Almon: as a
actin.—Without pride he will not be mail -rally
•brave ; and witliont virtue, there is more chance
that he prove the fcnorge of a nation th.sn the &-
fender of its liberties. Such is the intention; it
will be a fecurity againft blame: the eeecotion is
defellive ;it nil feared, ob.ain praife." To the
preface fucceeds an elegant logical introduaion
on
the history, m rat, phyfical and political, of the
nature of man; alter which he enters at once upon
his important undertaking. This he divides into
five chapters, methodically arranged. The fist
comprehends an analyfis of the military qualities
ef man. in the abliraCt ; principal! as relishing
firm the operation of phy heal CanfeS.-2. Sketch
of the military char Alter of the Enropean nations
dillinguithed in hillory.-3. Formation and
mechanical training of troops.-4. Principle of mill-
tar y movement, and bond of union in altion.--5. Ge
neral economy and management of troops upon fer-
vice. There chapters are then divided into lations,
which we regret that the liroi sof this paper will not
permit us to analyfe. The military charatter of the
European nations Is a very interelling and entertain-
ing part of the work, and will amply repay the reader
for his perufal of it. The charaters of the Britifb,
Scots, and frith, are, indeed, ably and truly deli-
neated, and will be read with particular fatisfaBion.
The fitih chapter Ihuuld be read by every Officer
with the utmoll attention that he can give to it, for
on this depends the health and comfat t of the.whole
army, from the higheft to the lowell, whether in
barracks or in the tied, while in tranfports on the
lea, in tropical or other climates, and on fervice
abroad or at home. The diet of the Officer's ind
Private's tables, etre of high Eying, drefs, exercife,
and cleanlinefs, accommodation, and the difficulty of
its arrangement, barracks, encampment, tranfports..
the mode of embarkation, accommodation between
decks, and for Beeping, divillon for fick, and means
of purification, cautions in embarking, and economy
on Blip board. The mode of crindueing a march,
management in tropical climates, and caufesand re-
medies of ficknefs, military defence, importance of
healthy petitions, exercife, predict: in war, arrange-
ment for the Well Indies.and importance of economy.
It is a work from which it is altrodi impoffibla to
fetal, the whole being fo concifely and fatisfaitorOy
treated. The foldier, the vlitician, and the moralist,
will read it with nearly equal interelt ; and it would
he ez:remely difficult to lay, what daft of readers
would not he gratified by the entertainment It affords.
'l'he author proves himfelf to be a great and good
man, and we heartily congratulate him and his fellow
creature., that he has thus fuhmitted the refult of
ibi.o year: obfervations and experience for the benefit
of mankind.
