Whoever is familiar with the essays ot our best authors on the same subjects, will find in this book, what, will at least remind him of their peculiar excellence : he will find the same common sense, drosscd in the same simple, chaste garb, and the same original end sinking views on tho most common and familiar subjects __ The book is addressed to the cony moil sense of iriknkind, in the most simple, unaffected, jet irresistible manner. It is replete with the most pertinent and striking remaik's on the daily concerns of common life , and it contains a fund of moral in. siruction, which lor real substan tial value, is not surpassed by any production of a similar kind and equal magnitude. Such a book has long been wanted for the use of common schools, and since il has been obtained, from a hand so com petent to produce whatever is most useful and excellent in such pro ductions, it is hoped it will be in troduced into general use, as a reading book for schools; and it is not doubted, that when k shall be come generally known, its intrinsic merits will satisfy the public of the justice of the recommendation now .given. As the book was not ori ginally designed for the use of schools, it may, in order to render it more suitable for a school book, require considerable modification; and it is understood that the author is about to revise and correct it, with a particular view to tbe new character it is about to assume. Since tbe above recommendation was published by me, the following new snd revised edition of 1 The Urief Remarker* has been submit ted Yor my examination: I have ac cordingly examined It with care, and liad the. satisfaction to find it well adapted, In its present impro ved form, for the use of schools. I am happy,in availing myself of a- nother opportunity to express my decided approbation of ‘ The Brier RemsrKer,' aad to recommend it as tamong tbe best reading books for use of common schools. Q.

Let him drink and forget his pover ty, and remember his misery no more.” (Proverbs J — So spake the royal voluptuary, who planted him vineyards, and gave himself unto wine; yet he soon found, as every drunkard has done since, that “ all was vanity and vexation of spirit.” * The cultivated mind is even seen in drunkenness It commits no outrage, provokes no quarrel, and turns its ear from (Ault and offence.
