designed for the use OF Churches, Singing Schools
and Academies. By A. S. HAYDEN
Two reasons will chiefly account for the great
success OF this volume:
First. The Character Of the Work.-It presents
a new and greatly improved syatem OF notation.
In IL much that Is abstruce and difficult In this de-
lightful silence is so simplihed that months are

ing the practice Of musical art fact sufficiently
proven by the attesatons of scores OF teachers and
performers who have tested the system and given
The W ork It's great popularity and constantly In
creasing sale.
Second. The Quality and Style Of the MHstc.-
Many new pieces destined to please as long mu-
sic lasts, may be found on its pages and also many
OF the old and tried melodies, hallowed from ASSOC
ciated recoections Of sanctuary delights, and far
more welcome to the heart of tho worshipcr than
many frequently substituted for them.
The Publishers may add that the mechanical
execution OF the work issuperior altogether TO the

made myself rs well acquainted with the specific
merits Of the books, as l we'll could without the
actual using ofthem In the recitation room. Prof.
Robinson be, should judge from his books,
keen, sprghuy and thorough Mathe natican.-
He would seem to have, either as the gift Of ma
uie, or the result of study and practice, quick
intuitive perception of mathematical principles
and 10 be remarkably adopt III articles for abbro.
WAITING the methods Of solving problems.
The Algebrais clear and sufficiently diiuse il
explanations. and furnishes an abundant stock o.
problems with explicit and Ingenious modes OF
solving them. This work is sufficiently extensive
for the ordinary purposes of 01rse Of College
instruction
The Geometry embodies great mount ofGeo-
metric knowledge in n compass smaller than
usual The diagrams are well conceived and re-
markedly well executed.
The Treatise on Surveyin ing an Navigation isfull,
and gives many interesting fac, which may be
new to most Of our students. The diagrams are,
as In the Geometry, unusually welt done.
The natural Philosophy Is de = idly interesting
only for its natter but for tho manner in which
principles are explained and facts stated. No,
only the student but the general reader may find
amusement and profit from the book.
