NEW ROBINSON CRUSOE,

AN INSTRUCTIVE ♦vb ENTERTAINING H ISTORYI

ALTERED FROM THE FRENCH.

We have seldom persica a work better misstated
to entertain the rising enoratiori, sod to train t►em
to habits of fortitude, industry, sod perseverance,
than the present. It folly justifies its motto,
" Miscuit yak (Loki," and well combines the useful
with the agreeable. Robinson Crissoo was the de.
light of our earlier years, and it is imporrible to
permit after a long lapse of time, without fueling a
strong ieterest revised in the mind. The present
Editor sad Translator, in following op the plan of
Defoe, has performed one of the most beneficial
Wary labours of the day, so far as the morals of the
juvenile reader are concerned, and t►ey ere of the
utmost importance In forming such a character as it
likely to pass through life with respectability end
comfort. It is justly observed in the Piths*, that
notwithstanding all the merits of the original work,
and they are highly estimable, that it is not without
some ground for reasonable objection. Bet we will
dte the pssuge :
" Robinson Grow, Independentlyof its other de-
fects, is erroneous in one particular, eefficient to de-
stroy every aduotage that history might produce,
wilds is, being provided with every sort of Fern.
peso tools and Nutriments necessary to procure him
many of those conveniences which belong to society.
Thus the opportunity Is lost of affording the young
'ruttier a lively sense of the wants of man in a state of
ulitede, and the multiplied happiness of a social
life; soother important reason why I thought proper
to depart from the old history.

" I have divided the time of my Nem Robinson
Crusoes stay span the island into three periods. In
the first he is alone and destitute of any European
tool or instrument whe tsisever, assisting himself merely
by his invention ; in order to show, on the one hand,
bow helpless man is in a state of solitude, and, on
the other, hew much redaction sod perserering of.
forts contribute to the improvement of our condi-
lien. le the second period, I give him a companion,
on porpeao to show hew much a man's sitsstiou may
be bettered by even this Giggle step towards society.
Lastly, in the third period, • vessel f►om Europe is
shipwrecked on his island, sod Rites him an opports.
city of providing himself with tools, ■nd most other
articles peasantry in common life, in order tbst t►e
young reader may see how valuable many thing, are,
of which we are •ocustomed to make very little cc.
eases, because we have sever experienced their want."
The interest of the hero is by no wins decreased
le the work before es, but, on the contrary, It is cal-
colated to prove a powerful stimulus to juvenile cu-
riosity. The Editor and Publisher, for they ere one
end the same, informs us that the work was parties-
lady intended as a Prve Ronk for schools, and it
seems to be admirably well suited for such a purpose.
The work is illustrated with engraving, on wood,
which refer to the most interesting passages In the
story, and which, of course, will snap the alien-
tioo and heighten the Interest of the yesithewl reader.
We subjoin the Dedicatioe, because it Is addressed
to a Nobleman, who, fres all reports, is fully es-
titled to the eulogists, which it cootaies :
" To Tilt MIST DOR. GtORGIE, LORD REKTOR,

" Ennobled more by personal Artie, (flooded no
the Immetable heals of the Religion of Christ, than

reign confined one Father, as the well-earned re.

and dignified performance of the duties of Lerd

It Is worthy of unties, In recomoseedatinn of this
work to readers of all classes, that it contalos no.
thing which can give offence to any, whatever nay
be their religious opinions and persuasion, while it
limey inculcates true principles of piety. '
