A ject for which nine tenths of our references to such a work are

TESTIMONIALS. 
“ The new edition of Websters’s Dictionary, in Crown Quarto, 
seems to us deserving of general patronage for the following rea¬ 
sons :— ° 
In the exhibition of the etymology of the language, it is superior 
to any other dictionary.

orthography, pronunciation, extent of vocabulary. Tables of Geogra¬ 
phical, Scripture, Classical and Proper Names.]

From Pres. Hitchcock, of Amherst College.

“ The work is of standard excellence. With some long acquain¬

ledge in that branch of science, I have not seen a dictionary so en¬ 
tirely to my mind as your edition of Mr. 'Webster. 
44 We venture to say that there is no dictionary in the English 
language which combines so many advantages, with such econo¬ 
my of price, beauty of execution, compactness and clearness, as 
this Quarto Edition of Webster.”— N. Y. Observer, Dec. 4, 1847.
