It is with great pleasore tliat we direct the attention of ail loyers of the French language to this publication. ... It is particularly fit for a text-book in our schools, for the following reasons : 1, It is short, without being superficial. 2, It is logically arranged. 8, Its course of instruction is a progress, in a natural gradation, ttom the easy to the difficult. 4, Theory and practice go hand in hand. 5, Its outside appearance does crédit to the publiihert.** Michigan Teachar, May, 1866.

Deab Sib, — Will you allow me to thank you for calling my

attention to Otto's French Grammar, edited by Prof. Bôcher?

We haye used it thus &r this year with entire satis&ction. It

will be but simple justice to award it the first place as a text-book

for mature students, at least among ail with which I am acquainted,

whether pubHshed in this country or in Europe. Its chapter on

Pronunciation is surpassingly complète and practical.

Gratefiiliy yours,
