LUCIEN OUDIN, A.M

Instructor of the French Language, N. Y. Free Academy.

1 have used " Otto's German Grammar." I consider it a very good book; its abundant vocabularies, and its fulness in ïdioms, are especially useful. The appendix, also, is very valuable, containing, as it does, some of the most popular and characteristic German poems, which may be turned to many uses. Feb. 1, 1865 ADOLPH WÈRNER,

It gives me great pleasure to inform you that I have introduced your édition of " Otto's German Grammar " in my classes in tins University, and that I regard it as the very best German grammar. for school purposes, that lias thus far come to my notice. Your German éditions of the " Imtnensee," " Vergissmeinnicht," and " Irrlichter," are great favorites among my pupils ; %nd your " Collège Séries of Modem French Play s," edited b*" Mr. Ferdinand Bôcher of Harvard Collège, I regard as very useful %t the recitation-room, and for private reading. Yours very truly,

I hâve examined many works designed for pupils studying the French Language, and among them consider " Otto's French Conversation Grammar," revised by Bôcher, superior to any other. I use it in my classes, and take pleasure in recommending it as admirably adapted for the purpose.

Boston, March, 1865.

" Otto's French Grammar " revised by Prof. F. Bôcher, is the best Instructor ever published ; at présent, it surpasses Fasquelle and the Ollendorf System, by its simplicity. It has the advantage of telling, in one page, what the others require three or four to express. The rules for the pronunciation do honor to the reviser ; besides, the lessons are so well placed, and so progressive, that they bring the student into the difnculties of our language with very little exertion. At last, permit me to thank you for taking, by this pubHcation, the most tedious part of our labor as teacher. It is so clear, that any one could teach thé French Language without difficulty.

I remain, Sir, yours,
