Extract, from The Preface.

I@.dS'u1LS fOHt VIC 4 'J~S''
$50 me it has long appeared singular that,
while our schools abound with a variety of read
ing books for children and youth, there has new
err yet appeared a compeadious History of the
United States fitted for common schools, than
which | scarcely know of a work more needed.
Inste ad Of those books Usually read in schools
consisting Of detached pieces on various subjects,
would not a work like the following en- Y
gage the attention and interest the feelings and
would il not be Cfiar greater utility: Or, ii the
former arc retained, ought the latter be neg
lccted
BY the reading Of history like the present,
no inconsiderable general knowledge may be
obtained Of the story Of our fathers : yet how
many are there almost entirely ignorant Of the
" tales Of other times" "a they relate 10 our own
country, whose ignorance would be removed BY
the introduction, into our more humble SCI nina
res, OF correct succinct account, Of the princi
pal events which have marked the footsteps Of
our prosperity, from the llwly and responding
vale Of struggle aud ohscury, to the already
lofty and brilliant heights D. wealth, Of happi-
ness, and Of power"

We have not been able to examine with crit

itself, the main purpose for which 1t is intended
and the character and circumstances Of its late
author, who was personally known to us as a
man Of genius, scholar, poet, and a Wit, are
calculated to create much interest aud expecta
ton. We have found il what it processes to be,
a very useful work for the use Of schools, and a
convenient manual, to which occasional recuT-
renee may De had by any gentleman.

which follow the preface, observe che from

A gentleman Of this state, to whom this
country is much indebted for his former
inventions, has lately completed u machine
for cutting {ir from skins without injury
to the pelt, which has heretofore been
rendered useless to lcather.-Il is also as
certalned that this machine will shear cloth
better than any other machine now in use.
Que man can cut, with this machine, the
for from 1000 skins per day, Or shear 300
yards of cIotn-whereas the cutting Of the
fur from so skins or shearing 100 yards OF
cloth ia considered days work, by the
present mode of cutting aud shearing.
Thus there is saving Of i9-2Oths of the
labor. The fur cut b. this machine is pro-
nounced, by good judges, to be better than
that cut in the usual Notwithstanding
the great saving Of skins, particularly the
seal, and labor, we must pronounce IL one
