We consider Dr.. w ebster eminently qualified to
| prepare work Of this kind. His extensive acquain
lance with the early history Of nations and especially
our own--the result Of fifty years Of investigatoD--s
the best pledge for the acsarasy Of bis slaements
yoiution and the establishment of government,
gives freshness and interest to his narrative which
are rarely If ever be found in the pages of mere
! compiler. We therefore cordially recommend this
work as adapted TO general ia families & schools.
