 wall, 1839. — This treatise was compiled with a view to the convenience 

 of the class at West Point Military Academy. The subject is treated in 

 a lucid, condensed, and very accurate way, and abundantly illustrated

 subject. The work is written solely for the use of the Military Acad- 

 emy, and to facilitate the ends of instruction in that institution.
