PREPARING FOR SPEEDY PUBLICATION. 

 LATIN READING AND EXERCISE BOOK, 1 vol., royal ISmo. 

 A SCHOOL CLASSICAL DICTIONARY, 1 vol., royal ISmo. 



It will thus be seen that this series is now very nearly complete, embracing 

 eight prominent Latin authors, and requiring but two more elementary works 

 to render it sufficient in itself for a thorough course of study, and these latter 

 are now preparing for early publication. During the successive appearance of 

 the volumes, the plan and execution of the whole have been received with 

 marked approbation, and the fact that it supplies a want not hitherto provided 

 for, is evinced by the adoption of these works in a very large number of the 

 best academies and seminaries throughout the country. 



But we cannot forbear commending especially both to instructors and pupils the 

 whole of the series, edited by those accomplished scholars, Drs. Schmitz and Zumpt. 

 Here will be found a set of text-books that combine the excellencies so long desired 

 in this class of works. They will not cost ihe student, by one half at least, that which 

 he must expend for some other editions. And who will not say that this is a consider- 

 ation worthy of attention ? For the cheaper our school-books can be made, the more 

 widely will they be circulated and used. Here you will find, too, no useless display of 

 notes and of learning, but in foot-notes on each page you have everything necessary to 

 the understanding of the text. The difficult points are sometimes elucidated, and often 

 is the student referred to the places where he can find light, but not without some effort 

 of his own. We think that the punctuation in these books might be improved; but 

 taken as a whole, they come nearer to the wants of the limes than any within our know- 

 ledge. — Southern College Review.

 THE CLASSICAL MANUAL; 



AN EPITOME OF ANCIENT GEOGRAPHY, GREEK AND ROMAN 



MYTHOLOGY, ANTIQUITIES, AND CHRONOLOGY. 



CHIEFLY INTENDED FOR THE USE OF SCHOOLS. 



BY JAMES S. S. BAIRD, T. C. D., 



Assistant Classical Master, King's School, Gloucester. 

 In one neat volume, royal ISmo., extra cloth, price Fifty cents. 



This little volume has been prepared to meet the recognized want of an Epi- 

 tome which, within the compass of a single small volume, should contain the 

 information requisite to elucidate the Greek and Roman authors most com- 

 monly read in our schools. The aim of the author has been to embody in it 

 such details as are important or necessary for the junior student, in a form and 

 space capable of rendering them easily mastered and retained, and he has con- 

 sequently not incumbered it with a mass of learning which, though highly 

 valuable to the advanced student, is merely perplexing to the beginner. In the 

 ■.mount of information presented, and the manner in which it is conveyed, as 

 well as its convenient size and exceedingly low price, it is therefore admirably 

 adapted for the younger classes of our numerous classical schools.
