School Song and Hymn Book-edited6 By Brit

By j. IL A. Cruikshank Our taste for music is
not very great;and, altogether, we are destitute of
the capacity TO speak OF the merit of these works.
But musical friend who has examined them,
speaks in commentator. The works are print
ed quite neatly, with good type and upon clear
paper.
Jurcnile PhilosophH By Richard G. Pmker.-
This work has a good deal OF merit, as a school
book Tor little folks" The style is adapted to
their powers of compromising, and the work
treats of the subject in manner, which, when
properly used, cannot fail, 10 store the young
mind with philosophical facts.
