LEVERETT'S LATIN LEXICON,

ENLARGED AND IMPROVED, compiled chiefly from
I the Magnum Totius Latntatis Lexicon at Faccolat
and Forcen and the German works of scheer and Lue
nemann, embracing, also, the classical distinctions Of
words, and the Psychological Index from Freunds Lexi
The present edition of this standard and favore Latin
Lexicon has been much improved by the transfer to its
columns of the classical distinctions of Latin words
given in the Lexicon of Dr. VIM. Freund, of Germany
and translated by Riddle The classical degree of each
word indicated by fgure for example, word ottoa
a figure fully classical and Gceroia,,; soiM the figures
/, q and 8, words classical only in the first
ond &c. Degrees and this distinction the student per
ceves at glance. The Psychological Index, also from
Freund Lexicon has been incorporated into the
edition of Leveret and will be found valuable acquis
ton. While transferring these notes and marks, cata
logues carefully kept Of the words found in each
Lexicon, which not found in the other. On compar
ing these catalogues found that the value and i'm
portance the additional words found in Leverett
knowledge of the Latin language concerned very
exceeds that of those found in Riddles Freund The
extensive of Leverets Lexicon In all parts of the
country and the preference which has been universally
given to 1t all similar works, render its recommended
ton superuous; but attention to this edition is
respectfully invited being still worthy than its
predecessors of the distinguished favor which the work
has hitherto received

GEoRaEToWN, July 19-l2 m.
Both the Boards of Aldermen and Common
Council were in session last night, and passed
number of bills and resolutions. Among them
the following very important joint resolution,
offered by Mr.. Ridgely, passed the Common
Council:
RESOLVED, That the mayor and recorder be and
they are hereby requested to examine the origi-
nal town charter, and the several subsequent
additions thereto, and that they report to this
Board such alterations and amendments as in
their judgment would best meet the wants and
promote the interests of the town.
Our citizens owe Mr.. Ridgely vote of thanks
for putting the ball in motion; and it is to be
hoped that they will make it their duty to keep
it going until we have charter in keeping with
the spirit of the age; for in my humble judg-
ment, and in the judgment of many of our peo-
pie, we are far behind it.
