text book, be studied in schools and colleges.
The sovereign citizen. also, who is called upon t.
lake part in constituting and administering the gov
-rnment, will find it a Y bl'bIe companion. In-
deed we know of no class of citizens who would
not be benefited by reading and studying this
work. The sfndy of Political Science is too much
neglected: it should constitute prominent feature
of a practical English education. The right ot
suffi age and popular governments are mere
mockery when not associated with popular intelii-
gence. To sp etd before the citizen the largest
amount of Intelligence, relating to the nature
genius, character, and institutions of country,
in tie smal possible space, appears have been
the object of this distinguished author-and we
think he has most admirably succeeded. Our
sch"ols should adopt it as Textbook, TO be
thoroughly studied; and mars library should be
considered complete without " Young's Manual Of
Government aud Law
We hope the enterprsing Publishers may be
rewarded with large sale of this valuable work.
