"This is an excellent little work, well adapted to convey useful instruction to the young in a very pleasing and enticing manner. Nor do we confine our measure of applause to the character of this book as a manual for the young; there are many, perhaps, amongst the readers of our grave and solemn lucubrations who might turn away from the bewildering haunts of the theologian and critic to snatch an interlusory revival of early associations from these modest pages, without fearing that they should incur the censure of condescension," &c. &c. &c.-Christian Remem. brancer, May 1829.
