Editorial Notices. 



Vol. X. 



The patentee, Dr. Guib of this eity, has placed on 

 our table, a little Manual for tha writing master ; a 

 practical and critical Treatise on Pennnianship. We 

 some time ago referred to his Chirographast, as an in- 

 genious aid fur the aspirant to the accomplishments of 

 the pen. To those, who like the editor, have long 

 been accustomed to making crooked and ugly marks, 

 which run in all directions but the light, and which 

 few can decypher but themselves, — and sometimes not 

 even they— all these increased facilities and mechani- 

 cal helps, will be valued. 



In the Cabinet, two months ago, we noticed a 

 "Treatise on Milch Cows,' by Monsieur Oucnon, 

 which was in course of translation by JV. P. 'Prist, 

 for the Farmer's Libranj. Since that time, Greely & 

 McElrath have published the work separately at 

 thirty seven and a half cents a copy.
