SELECTIONS FOR READING AND DECLAMATION

SELECTIONS FROM THE PRINCIPAL CLASSICAL FRENCH POETS AND PROSE-WRITERS DURING THE PAST TWO HUNDRED YEARS, WITH BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES OF THE AUTHORS ; THE WHOLE CHRONOLOGICALLY ARRANGED.

By EDWARD H. MAGILL, A. M.,

PROFESSOR OF ANCIENT AND MODERN LANGUAGES IN SWARTKMORE COLLEGE, PENNSYL VANIA.

No. 1 now contains a complète course of Grammar, illustrated by copious exercises, English- French and French-English, together with a very full treatise on pronunciation, brought down to date according to the most récent authorities.

No. 2 Contains sélections progressively arranged ; and its very full vocabulary gives the dérivations of the words as well as their définitions and pronunciation, an entirely new feature in a work of this character. Both this work and No. i are highly recommended by M. Bescherelle aîné, author of the Dictionnaire National.

No. 3 is a combination of the best materials to make a useful French Reader which the author could obtain during a résidence of some months in France, some of them already widely used in the French schools, and others, new sélections, taken from the original sources.

The whoîe séries forms a very complète course of instruction in French, according to the most approved modem method, for our schools and collèges.
