 RECOMMENDATIONS.
 We consider Df. Webster as emineny qualified to prepare work Of this kind His extensive acuuaili- ance with ,he early history of nations and especially our own-the result of fifty years of investigation-is the best pledge for the accuracy of his statements; while the personal knowledge of the events of our voution and the establishment of government, gives freshness Gna interest to his Darrativc which are rarely # ever to he found in the pages of compiler. We therefore cordially recommend this

 The work will not fail to meet with welcome re- ceptiOn whenever it is seen-M. HaDen Palladium. From the Rev. T. Marsh, late Rector of St. Michaels Church, Liichfeld.
 This certifes, that have perused "A History ot the United States," written by Noah Webster, ILL. D. It is well calculated benefit the rising generation. It gives an inuve and correct view of the mos. m-
  North America. It is adapted to the wants, capacity and taste of youth. hope it may find place in eve y library, and especially in our High and Common Schools. The purity ofiis style, and the correctness of it's acts must please every patron of science, aud every friend Of virtue and humanity. D0ct Webster was the first man who succeeded in attempting to nlyse or parse the English language. He has done more to explain its true principles, to investigate it's peculiar dioms, to trace its etymoogy, and bansI its corrupons, than any other person that ever lved.- His name ought to he revered, and his pathological writings ought to be studied, ky every classical scho- lar, and more especially by every American, who is disposed to patronize learning or encourage religion. Sept. 3, 1832. TRUMAN MARSH. From the Rev. Mr. Hickok, Pastor the First Con.
 gregational Church, Lilchfeld. have examined to some extent Dr. Wehser's History of the United States, and nm highly pleased both with the Sian and erecMtiOa. While u is em- mind in Common Schools, there is also mUclSaluable information, both of historical facts and philosophical and phioogicai isqusition which renders tt prOfta be 10 more mature and cultivated iniellecis. can not but hope that it may have very general circala ton.
