cg This work supplies a desideratum in our classical Schools.

& At no period has History presented such strong claims upon the attention of the learned, as at the en day ; and to no neople were its lessons of such value as to those of the United States. Witn no past of our own to revert to, the great masses of our better educated are tempted to overlook a science, which comprehends all others in its grasp. To prepare a text-book, which shall present a full, clear, and accurate view of the ancient world, its geography, its political, civil, social, religions state, must be the result only of vast industry and learning. Our examination of the present volume leads us to believe, tha! aa a text-book on Ancient History, for Colleges and Academies, it is the best compend yet published. It bears marks in its methodical arranzement, and condensation of materials, of the untiring patience of German scholarship ; and in its

rogress through the English and American press, has been adapted for acceptable use in our Best institutions. A noticeable feature of the book, is its pretty complete list of “ sources of in formation” upon the nations which it describes. This will be an invaluable aid to the student

l his future course of reading.” 18
