NEW SYSTEM OF ENGLISH GRAMMAR


From a thorough examination of Mr. Gtcenlears
"abor saving system" aud from having been long
acquainted with his new method of instruction. by
frequent visits at different places to his schools
Nc we have no hesitation in saying, that, in our
opinion, it is by far the hest grammar ever publish
ed. 1t is constructed upon plan entirety nctc--is
dsencumbered of all unnecessary mattcr-and i'm
parts us much knowledge, in one day, as the best
OF other systems do in thirty. However incredible
this may seem, let any unpreudiccd and we'll edu-
Gated person carefully examine the book, and wit
ness Ms PRACTICAL effects ia school, and he will be
perfectly satisfied that we have not ovcrrutcd its
merits Our limits, however, will not allow us 10
enter into particulars.
In facilitating and accellerating the study of ety.
mology and syntax, MIR. G's "Grammar Simph.
cd published several years since and with which
we are well acquainted, has hitherto stood unrival-
led but the "Labor-Saving Grammar" is vastly
superior even TO that popular work. Its form bet
ter, its method of instruction much better md il of
fcrs much greater advantages TO the public aud pr-
vate learner. Indeed, the two books are almost
wholly unlike The materials of all other treatses
OF the kind are abstruse and abstract (many be-
ing likewise very voluminous,) and the method of
teaching from them so exceedingly stupid that the
study OF grammar, instead of an inviting, becomes
an lntoleraby irkspme task. Even after having la
bored for years Through literary swamp" schol-
airs in general are very dcicient in this important
branch of education. But in this Improved svs-
TEN, all Murray's definitions, numerous rules and
notes, IN Substance, are so concsely embodied, the
falsc grammar and the key" so admirably ar
ranged, and the parsing lessons ingeniously
trived, that competent knowledge of the subjec,
can now be obtained, 10y agreeable and interest.
ing study of few days. For families and private
learners, this is also decidedly the best system ex-
tant. In short we fully concur, in opinion, with a
learned gentleman of this city, who declared il 10
be a complete 'grGnmGficai railroad" We should
rejoice TO see il exteasiyely used and introduced
into every school in the United States. Published

This book is probably better recommended, and
has had more rapid sale, than any work of the
kind ever before published.

The SoMERs CASE AND THE UNITED
STATES CoURT.-The N. Y papers contain an
abstract Of the opinion of Judge Beils, deliv-
cred in the United States Circuit Court, on
Monday forenoon, on the application made by
the Grand Jury TO know whether they had
jurisdiction in the case Of the alleged homicide
on board the Somers.
The journal of commerce says il was long
and elaborate opinion on the case, and con-
cIuded by saying that the inquiries put TO the
Court were broad and general inquiries, going
far beyond any facts existing, as far as the
Court was aware of, in the complaints which
had been laid before the Grand jury. They
bad inquired Of the Court, can they take cog
nzance Of any offence committed on board
ships Of war on the high seas, or if the Court
can take jurisdiction over offences committed
by others than those in the naval services; and
If so, is il the province OF the Grand Jury to
inquire into the alleged offence committed by
Commander Mckenzie on board the Somers,
which inquiries included the case Of the sea-
men on board that ship, and whether il was
their duty TO inquire into the mutny, or at
tempted mutiny, on board that vessel.
