The Latin words and phrases are in all cases followed by the name of some standard Latin writer, as a guaranty of their authority; and as the work is of a strictly elementary character, the conjugation of the verbs and the genders and genitive cases of the substantives are uniformly added. In the preparation of this portion of the book, DR. WHITE has had the assistance of some of the best scholars both of Oxford and Cambridge.". -Guardian.

[ocr errors]

The features of this grammar to which we invite attention, are: 1. The scientific form of statement in the Etymology, corresponding to the most advanced views of comparative philologists; 2. The comparison with kindred languages suggested throughout, especially in numerous brief philological notes, and in references to the syntax of Goodwin's Greek Grammar; the grouping and subordination of topics in the Syntax,-which contains nearly 200 cross-references, with upwards of 1,000 citations from classic authors, -so that unusual brevity is attained without sacrifice of completeness.

It is the design of this edition to give a full view of Cicero's public career, as orator and statesman, extending through about forty of the most eventful years of the later Republic. With this view, the selection includes the earliest and the latest of his public orations, while the special Introductions cover very fully the intervening political history. Besides the orations more commonly read in schools, are given the Roscius and Sestius (abridged), with the first against Verres and the last Philippic,- thirteen in all, with one or two short passages of special celebrity, for practice in reading at sight. Especial care has been taken in the department of Antiquities, which has been treated in numerous notes (in smaller type), some of them as that on the Roman Aristocracy being brief essays on the several topics. The Introduction contains a classified list of all the works of Cicero, with the occasions and topics of all of his orations.

LEIGHTON'S LATIN LESSONS. Prepared to accompany Allen & Greenough's Latin Grammar. By R. F. LEIGHTON, former Master of Melrose High School. Revised Edition. 12mo. Half morocco. 352 pages This work presents a progressive series of exercises (both Latin and English) in about eighty Lessons, illustrating the grammatical forms and the simpler principles of syntax. Synonymes and Rules of Quantity are introduced from the first. The amount of illustrative matter in exercises for reading and writing or oral practice is very large, including portions of VIRI ROMÆ, and Woodford's Epitome of the First Book of Cæsar. Full Vocabularies (prepared by R. F. PENNELL) accompany the book, with questions for examination and review of the grammar.

The Lessons have been entirely rewritten, considerably simplified, and more carefully graded. With each lesson, definite directions have been given in regard to the amount of the grammar to be learned. By decreasing the exercises to be translated into English, space has been given to increase correspondingly the amount to be put into Latin. Some instruction on the formation of words has been given, and the references to the grammar on that subject largely increased. The vocabularies have also been carefully revised.
