PREFACE.

The deGgn Of rhis little manuel 10, 10 com
prize the elementary principles Of the En-
giih Language, in a plain, concise, and hIn-
pie manner, iused to the comprehension Of
children.
Macy valuable works have of late been
written, for the improvement OF thoie who
are more advanced, but few are implied 10
the capacities of beginners.
"A work of this fort cannot be made too
fmple or familiar, nor 100 much care taken
in the lelection and arrangement OF the ana
terias.
In order TO render the acquiltion Of Ian
guage eaiy 10 children, we fhould ule words
ana expreiiions winch they can underitand.
The lentences lhould be lhort, and the Ian
guase impe. The ideas iuch as are familiar
TO them, or which they eau readily comprs
bend, aud the delcnpuons and incidents de-
tailed, fhouid relate 10 thlngs of which they
have fome acquaintance.
Urged Dy thele considerations, the compi-
Ter has been induced TO offer the following
work 30 parents and instructors of youth,
hoping that it may, ia iome manner, relieve
them from their aborious employment, and
alto, be of lome benefit 10 the rlfing gener-
alton.
] hat this performance may give pleaiure
as well as convey inftruGtion, the reading ief
ions have been choien, which are calcu at ed,
not only morally and rehgiouly TO lmpl owe,
but alto, to amuie thoie tor whom they are
dehgned.
Ia the execution of the work, the compiler
mas endeavourec 10 unite ihe principles OF DR.
JOHNSON, Ma. WALKER, and Nh. MUIR.
RAY
The pronunciation of WALKER, the read
ing sfions of MURRAT, and other eminent
writer's or compiiers, and The photography
OF JOHNSON, except only, IN the omlliion Of

The compiler, hopes, that the fpelIing ar-l
reading let1ons viii be found luitablY adapted
70 each other, both III their nature and GUAM
