ume, which will be found TO be complete wade
meestm FOR all those who would study the great
and absorbing questions of the day, now SO
rapidly forcing themselves upon the attention Of
the people, and through them upon their servants

done more towards this end than William y.

sumptions, as is ayewedly the case with the
English system. The book now offered to the
public will fully yindicate his title to such
position.
