BY LEONHARD SCHMITZ, Ph. D., F. R. S. E., etc. In one handsome 18mo. volume.

The neatness, cheapness, and accuracy of this scries, together with its skillful adaptation to the wants both of teachers and students, have secured for it the almost universal approbation of those to whom it has been submitted. From among the very numerous testimonials which the publishers have received, they beg to submit the following Schmitz and Zumpt's Classical Series. - Continued.

From Prof. Roche, Transylvania University, Lexington, Ky., March 31, 1849.

Whatever influence my position may give me shall be most cheerfully employed in bringing into general use in the West these very valuable works. I trust that you will prosecute to a close the proposed series, and that the execution of those that remain to complete a Latin Curriculum may be as neat and in all respects as unexceptionable as that of those already published.

From Prof. John Wilson, Prep. Dep. Dickinson College, Carlisle, Dec. 8, 1848. I have examined the three volumes with considerable care and can give them my unqualified approbation. The plan is judicious, and the execution worthy of all praise. The notes comprise all that a student needs, and all that he should have; and their position at the foot of the page is just what it should be.

From Prof. E. E. Wiley, Emory and Henry College, Va. Nov. 30, 1849. From the cursory examination given them, I must say that I have been highly gratified. Such a series as you propose giving to the public is certainly a great desideratum. Our classical text-books have heretofore been rendered entirely too expensive, by the cosily dresses in which they have appeared, and by the extensive display of notes appended; many of which. though learned, are of little worth to the student in elucidating the text. It will afford me pleasure to introduce into my department such books of your series as may be in our course.

From S. H. Taylor, Esq., Andover, Mass., Oct 30, 1848.

The notes seem to me very accurate, and are not so numerous as to do for the student what he ought to do for himself. I can with safety, therefore, recommend it to my pupils.

From Prof. M. M. Campbell, Principal of the Grammar School, Indiana University,

Nov. 6, 1648. I like the plan of your series. I feel sure it will succeed, and thus displace some of the learned lumber of our schools. The notes, short, plain, and apposite, are placed where they ought to be, and furnish the learner just about help enough.

From Philip Lindsley, D. D., Pres. of the University of Nashville, Nov. 27, 1848. The classical series, edited by Drs. Schmitz and Zumpt. has already acquired a high and well-merited reputation on both sides of the Atlantic. I have carefully examined your editions of Caesar and Virgil. I think them admirable text-books for schools, and preferable to all others. I shall avail myself of every suitable occasion to recommend them.

From B. Sanford, Esq., Bridgewater. Mass., Jan. 17, 1849. I have examined, with considerable care, both the Caesar and the Virgil, and am much pleased with the plan and execution of the series thus far. I am particularly gratified with the propriety and judgment displayed by the editors in the preparation of the notes; avoiding, as I think, the prolixity and profuseness of some of our classical works, and. at the, same time, the barrenness and deficiency of others; giving a body of annotations better suited to aid the teacher in imparling a knowledge of the language, than is to be found in any edition heretofore in use.

From Prof. Sturgess, Hanover College, Indiana, Dec. 30, 1848. The mere name of the editors is a sufficient and most ample guarantee of the accuracy of the text, the judicious choice of various readings, and the conformity of those adopted to the latest investigations of .MISS., and the results of the most enlightened criticism. The notes I have not examined very carefully, except those of the Virgil. They are admirable, extremely condensed, and conveying a great deal of most valuable criticism in the briefest possible way. They are particularly valuable for their aesthetical remarks, and the frequent references to parallel passages in the same author. The preliminary life is excellent, and of great value to the student. The Sal-lust appears to be of the same general character, and the notes to furnish just such help as the diligent student really needs. I think that in bringing out such a course at a cheap rate you are conferring a great boon on the country, and additional honor on your press, already so distinguished for the value of its issues.
