The favorable reception which Ollendorff’s German Grammar has received from the American public, has induced the Publishers and the Editor to comply with the very general demand for a German Reader.

The plan of this Reader is as follows, viz. :

1. The pieces are both prose and poetry, selected from the best authors, and are so arranged as to present sufficient variety to keep alive the interest of the scholar. F -

2. It is progressive in its nature, the pieces being at first very short and easy, and increzsing in difficulty aad length as the learner advances.

3. At the bottom of the ‘page constant references to the Grammar are made, the difficult pasgages are explained and rendered. To encourage the first attempt of the learner as much as pos sible, the twenty-one pieces of the first section are analyzed, and all the necessary words given at oe bottom of the page. The notes, which at first are very abundant, diminish as the learnet

vances.

4. It contains five sections. The first contains easy pieces, chiefly in prose, with all the words necessary for translating them ; the second, short pieces in prose and poetry alternately, with copious notes and renderings; the third, short popular tales of GRIMM and others; the fourth select-ballads and other poems from BUERGER, GOETHE, SCHILLER, UHLAND, SCHWER, CHA: masso, &c.; the Vis prose: extracts from the first classics.

5. Atthe end is added a vocABuLARY of all the words occurring in the book.
