thought that the appearance of new, greatly en-

of an editor to whom was confded the preparation
of American notes. This duty has been well done.
Upon some of the most important points the notes
quite elaborate, and all exhibit great care and
diligence in their preparation The title Gas {,

tionaries. 1t would be about well to decry die
tionaries of the English language: There is UNI
doubleday period in professional life after which
recourse would rarely be had to such works for in
formation; but To say that beginner can get along
without one, quite suppose that
Yankee could find his way about London withou. a
pocket map. Even the list OF Abbrevlatlons IN

students, who have no friends to ask questions Of
How else could student learn what q stood for?
sIn conclusion, we can only hope that the work
