ARITHMETICAL QUESTIONS, on a New Plan, intended 



to answer the double purpose of Arithmetical Instruction and Miscella- 

 neous Information, designed for the use of Young Ladies. By the late 

 WILLIAM BUTLER. 9th Edition. Edited by Thomas Bourn, 

 r2mo. 6s. bound. 



In a book of common arithmetic, we did 

 not expect to find that variety of information 

 which this work contains. The Author's 

 reading; has been very extensive, and his re- 

 searches seem to have been directed with a 

 particular view to this publication. There 

 is scarcely any subject or any kind of know- 

 ledge, to which he is not desirous with a very 

 laudable zeal of engaging the attention of his 

 pupils ; and instead of composing a mere 

 treatise of arithmetic, he has compiled au 

 universal commonplace-book for their in- 

 struction. As a book of general instruction 

 and amusement, altogether unconnected 

 with arithmetical rules, it does honour to 

 the compiler, and deserves to be recom- 

 mended — Monthly Review^ 



Mr. Butler deserves our highest commen- 

 dation ; and we do not fear contradiction 

 from any one competent to judge of the con- 

 tents of his book, when we say, that we do 

 not know a volume of its size in the English 

 language that contains so much rational 

 entertainment and valuable information.— 

 European Magazine. 



Mr. Butler's volume of " Arithmetical 

 Questions," which combines with the science 

 abundance of useful information on all sub- 

 jects, cannot be too strongly I'ecommended. 

 No youth can study that book without de- 

 riving great accessions to his stock ot know- 

 ledge, and new excitements to the practice 

 of virtue. — Monthly Preceptor^ 



GEOGRAPHICAL EXERCISES on the NEW TESTA- 



MENT : describing the principal Places in Judea, and those visited by 

 St. Paul ; and narrating many of the most important Occurrences re- 

 corded in the Evangelical Histories. With Maps, and a brief Accoimt 

 of the principal Religious Sects of Mankind. By the late WILLIAM 

 BUTLER. Third Edition. Edited by Thomas Bourn. l2mo. 

 5s. 6d. bound. 



The present, as most of Mr. Butler's works, 

 discovers great diligence of research ; and 

 the authors he consults are vei y numerous ; 

 he gathers flowers from the iields and the 

 gardens to strew the path of learning, and 

 ■encourage the progress of the student.— 

 Evangelical Magazine, 



It is impossible for the rising generation 

 to peruse these Exercises on the New Tes- 

 tament, without obtaining from them most 

 advantageous information. We therefore 

 recommend as an instrument of mental and 

 moral cultivalionj this compendious, thougU 



concise manual, to the attention of parents, 

 guardians, preceptors, &c., as a work which 

 they ought, in the course of their education, 

 to put into the hands of their offspring, wards, 

 or pupils. — European Magazine. 



We cannot therefore but highly approve of 

 Mr. Butler's endeavour to render the Geo- 

 graphy of the New Testament familiar to his 

 scholars, as it will enable them to understand 

 the whole of the Gospel history. The copious 

 notes subjoined to the text of this work are 

 amusing and instructing,— iiffrary JPano- 

 rama, VoU xv.
