Davison, Priater, Whit?friars. ADVER TISEMENT. In 'the time of Strabo, Mela, and other ancient writers, the science of Geography was in its infancy; and, therefore, it is not surprising that they should sometimes have assigned different boundaries to the same district, -whether of land or water. But we are also to consider, that the continued warfare which sub- sisted between contending nations frequently ex- tended the limits of one region, and of course con- tracted those of another. Hence, we may find a town represented by one person as situated in Macedonia, and by another as in Thessaly ; yet both may be right, according to the time in which they respectively wrote. The same remark is applicable to other districts, as is clearly demonstrated in the present times ; for \vhich reason, the boundaries are in general omitted in this publication. To no other merit than that of industry does the Editor pretend to lay any claim. Being accustomed to peruse the transactions of former periods, he was frequently at a loss to know where any particular event took place; the name of an island, city, or river, being often mentioned, without any information being 2 given respecting the part of the world in which it was situated. To obviate this difficulty— whenever he met with one pubhcation that elucidated another, or when in the same work he found one part explanatory of the other, he had recourse to his common-place book, from which the information was afterwards copied in alphabetical order, but without any view to publica- tion. In process of time, however, the manuscript be- came voluminous, and he then began to incorporate it with other alphabetical works on the same subject. That errors and omissions will unavoidably appear, in an attempt of this nature, must be presumed ; but such as shall be dete(5led by the Editor on a revision, or may be kindly corrected by any reader, and trans- mitted, under cover, to Messrs. Longman and Rees, shall be carefully attended to, whenever it may be necessary to reprint the work. CLASSICAL AND HISTORICAL DICTIONARY OF ANCIENT GEOGRAPHY Abbreviations: A.M. Anno Mu?iJi ; A.C.

The building was fo extenfive that it covered four acres of ground: the front was adorned wi:h three rows of pillars, and the fides with two rows. From the ground to the floor of the temple there was an afccnt of loo lup?, and the infide of it was finiflied witU fo great magnificence as to fgrpafs all cre- dibility, it was cuftomary for the con- suls to make dunarions to th; Capitol ; • and ou that account Auguftos contribut- ed, at one time, 2coo p^^unds weight of gold.

In the time i of Severus it was encompaffed by a 1 fVrong wall, fo curioufty cemented- toge- i tiler that it might have been imagined all of one ftone. It has been fubjtdt to va- rious forms of government : for of a free city it was made tributary to the Athe- nians, by the aid of A'icibiades: it was afterwards demolifhcd by Severus, for aliifting Niger : ic was rebuilt by Con- fiantine, who confecrated it- A.D. 330, when he m^de it.the feat of the empire inftcad of Rome : it was enlarged by Juftinian ; and the French obtained poi- leHion in 1204; from whom it was re- cfivercd by the Greeks in 12.59: the Turks difpoirL-lTed them in 1433, and have retained poffeffion of it to the pre- Tent time. This city is generally under- fiood to have been rebuilt by Conftantine, whofe mother was Helena — the patri^t ajTch being Gregoiy (but this appcais to be erroneous, for his name was Alexan- der) : it was loft to the Turks by Con- llantine, whofe mother was named He- lena, in 1453.

Delphi {Bytbu, Byibia, Delboor, Sa- lona)y an inland town of Phocis, at the foot of Mount Parnaffus, celebrated by hiftorians for a temple dedicated -to Af'oilo, v\ hofe cracies were held in high eftimation : thole who confulted ■ the Pythbnels hrft oftered a prefcnt of con- fider.:bU; value, and afterwards they facrificed : if that produced a favourable DEM DEN pmen, the clelty was confultcd ; but if it was unfavourable, the Pvthonefs was at liberty cither to conf'ult or rcfiife, at her option. On the firft inftitution of this oracle, one month in the year was ap- propriated to hold conri.ltation?, which was in the fpring ; but from the variety of ridiculous queftions propofed, it be- came cuftomary onca a inoiuh, and ge- nerally on the 7th day, which was the birth-day o? Apoilo. The Pythonefs was originally feleded from among the young virgins ; but one of them who had been fu felefted proving with child, it was afterwards concluded upon that no perfm fhould be chofen Pythonefs before they had attained the age of fifty, to avoid fuch difgrace in future. When the petitioner hrrd performed his part of the ceremony, the Pythonefs vvaflied herfcif in the Caftalian fpring, at the foot of Mount Parnaffus ; and taking fome leaves from the laurel-tree which grew on its banks, formed a wreath of them, and put it upon her head, at the fame time eating fome of the leaves, and then afcended the tripod, whereon fhc fented hcrfdf, and waited for the impu'fe of the heathen gpd_, whofe oracies were delivered in an am- biguous manner, which being frequent- ly mifintcrpretcd by the petitioners, they fufFtred in an eminent degree : for ex- ample, Croefus loft his kingdom, Epa- minondas, Cambyfes, and feveral others fuffcred death, bv not putting the right conftruftion upon the oracle.

D. 77O the Dants fubdued the Saxons, and impoftd a tribute upon them of 100 white horfcs, upon the ac- ceffion of a new king to the throne of Denmark. In 7S4 they conquered the Frifons ; in 789 they invaded England ; in 8 10 a civil war broke out; and the next year a peace was concluded with Charlemagne, who had Hamburgh rc-» ftored to him. The civil differ. flons ftill continued, and about 8,i i the Danes turned pirates, and infefted the feas about Ireland, Scotland, and even the Mediterrantan Sea, to Conftantinople. About 837 the nation was converted to the faith, and ten years after they were defeated in England. In 8;:6 they in- vaded Holland, dcftroyed Dort, and tock pofilUion (.f Utrecht : in 875 they were e.-voelled Holhnd, and carr-.e to England, which in 877 they had nearly fubdued ; in 927 they deftroyed great part of Flanders : in 930 they were made tri- butary to tl^e emperor ; notwiihftanding which they invaded Ireland, and their king was (lain at the fiege of Dublirt.

In 1097 the king and queen went to the Crufades, where thev both died ; which circuinllance w^is unknown in Denmark' for the Ipace of iwo years : civil dilTenhons afterwards arofe, which continued fur feveral years, during which in 1 145 the Vandals over-ran and de- ftroved the country, which in 1156 was divided into three parts, viz. Zeaianii, Sclionen, and Jutland. In 117a they took Juliers, in Pomerania, where they malTdcrtd all the male inh;^bitants. and burnt the town: in 1199 they took (e- vcral towns in Holtlcin ; afterwards they obtained polTeHinn of Hamburgh and Lubec : the latter place was deftri-yed by fire in iicq. on which account the taxes were remitted, to enable the inha- bitants to rebuild it. Jn 1x19 thev fub- dued the Livonians, and built the towns of Revel, N iiva, ^nd Weilfcmhurg : in 1140 their ancient laws were all burnt by content, and a new code enntltd ; after which great diflTenfmns prevailed for a number cf years, which were not trrminared till i;02, and not long after they wert; revived. In 1371; a pL-ltilence raged throughout the Cfiuntrv which cauicd great devatlation : in i^^t) Mar- garet was cjneen of Denmark, Nurway, and Sweden : ii»e formed an alliance with the duke of Steiin, the earls of Holrtein, and th.- duke of SkTwic: at her death a civil war entucd, which con- tinued for feveral vcars. In 142; it was enacted that no handicraftman fliould be a I'enator at Elfinore. Jn 1425 the king, to encourage people to fettle there, ordered that whoever built a houlc of timber thouid bo frm laxts fur ten veArb, and thofc who built wth llone for tv^etuy years. In 1433 the Swedes febelcd, and tlie king made his clcap- in diluuile ; after wh'ch, having C(j|le(5Ud his rreafure together, he went into Gothl'iid. Another knig being cholcii, the people of Jutldiid foUuvved the example of the Swedes ; but they being qotiied, the leaders of the fa£lion were executed. In 145^ the Danes fubiiued Hamburgh, but confirmed their former privileges. In 14^1 Sweden be- came a feparate government, and conti- nued lo for fcveral years; but in 1519 Stockholm being taken, great cruelties were committed, and the city in great part deftroyed. This and other fimilar a^l> caufed the king to be expelled the kingdom. In 1543 the caftic of Land- fcroon was built.

Germany ( Cermania , Tranfrhe- notm, Tra7tfdanubinna)y an exttnfue empire in Europe, appears to have been inhabited about 130 years after the Flood, by a people who were called Tuifcones, from Tuifco, their leader : in procefs of time thole who inhabited the parts next the ocean, which are now denominated Friefland, Denmark, Ali'ace, Diethmar- (ia, Weri|'halia, and Saxony, were called Jngevones : thofe who had fixed their relidence in Gueldres, France, Holland, Brunfwick, and Cologne, were known by the name of IlUievones : thofe \M\q had taken up their abode in Thuringia, Mifnia, Bohemia, Lufatia, Silefia, Mo- ravia^ and part of Poland, were called Hermiones, or Hermanduri ; among whom ic was ordained that the women and children fiiould attend the wars, for the purpofe of providing the foldiers with victuals, to luck and heal their wounds, and during the time of aftion to animate the men by their outcries, they being confidcred entirely under their protection: thefe people were part of them trained to war, and the remain- der to the plough, both of whom were forbid indulging themfeivcs to excefs in any thing. About A.M. 2187, Ofyri? king of Egypt, came intoGcmany, and inftru£V- «d the people how to cu't. vate ih- land in a better manner than they had been accuftcmed to, and from the produce of it to make ale. About 2279, Suevus, of whom the people were called Sueves, came and fettled here. They, in procefs of time, divided themfelves into four tribes, viz. Lombards, Marcomanni, Sennones, and Alemanni, or Almains : the Vandals over-ran the country about 2326, and the Teutonics difpoffeficd them about 2367 : in 2394, AlemanniK was governor of the country, who brought with him a lion in chains, which is the arms of Ba- varia : from him are defcended the Huns, the Swifs, and the Bohemians, the latter of whom fettled on the borders of the Hercynian foreft about 2458, and built the city of Prague. Liburnia, now known by the names of Carinthia and Carniola, upon the Adriatic Gulf, appears to have been firft pe.pled from thence : as the country be- came populous they extended themfelves to the river Aibit, and cultivated that part which is now termed Bohemia and Moravia ; afterwards they proceeded to Heffe, and in procefs of time to Alfacc and Lorraine : in the time of Aurelian a colony removed to the Rhaetian Alps, who foon after took poffellion of Wir- temburg, and eftablifhed themfelves in the Tyrol, and on the confines of Italy : from thence a colony emigrated and took up their abode in Galicia, where thry eftablifiied a kingdom, which continued for the fpace of 176 years, when they were expelled by the Vifigoths. The Franconians eftdblifhed them- felves m Germany about 2790, end con- tinued there till they were driven out by the Gauls and Illyrians in 2831. The Getae (Goths') inhabited the coun- try on the banks of the Ifther in 3858 : but being diflansfied with their fituation they^dividcd themfelves into three pa>» tics : one of which pafied the Alps, and fettled in Switzerland; another removed into Scotland, where they were called Vi£\s ; and the other took poffeflion of Poland and the adjacent country About A.D. 1 8 3, a colony of the Goths feated themfelves in Wefiphalia, and were become fo formidable in 236 that the Romans were afraid of thenn : ip 256 they entered Afia, and, having over- run Macedon, proceeded to Ephefus, where they burnt the temple of Diana : the next year tV-:y went into Bithynia, where having dellroyed Chalcedcn,ls^ice, and Ilium, th^ returned !.;dcn with fpoils : in 261, .they were dcfuatrd in Thrace and Moefia ; but they returned in 163, and, having invaded Thraccand G E R GIB Macedonia, befieged Thcflalonica : in Z78 they were expelled Thrace ; and in 48S Dioclcfian crofted forts to prevent their future incurfions. The Qningentiani being troublefome to the Romans, they invited the Goths to 3(fift ill fupprelTing them ; which tbey accomplinied, but were afterwards flight- ed by the Romans. In 327 they invaded the empire, with- out fiicccfs : in 332 they invaded Thrace and Moefia; where being defeated, they planted themfelves beyond the Danube, and agreed to alfift Conftantine with 40,000 men : the troops being trained for that purpofe, and unemployed, ex- pelled their leaders, and took pofleffion of Pannonia. In 373 the Goths fell into civil d'f- fenfions, which continued feveral years. In 400 they over- ran Pannonia and Dal- matia without oppofition : the next year they entered Italy, from whence they were expelled the year following:, and returned through Pannonia into Epirus. In 410 they obtained pofieflion of Rome, in which citv they made captive of Pla- cidia, fifter to the emperor; but on their return to Africa by fea, a lempeft ardfe, and all their fpoils were loft. In 411 they mEJ an irruption into France and Spain, and, having waged war with the Vandals, eftabliflied the kingdom of the Vifigoths at Thouloufe, and took the city of Valentia, in Gaul. In 414, they, in conjunftion with Attilla king of the Huns, attacked the emperor Conftantius who forced them into Spain ; after which, a peace being concluded, the emperor allorted Aquitain to be the refidence of the Goths. In 425 they in- vaded the empire, and, being expelled from thence, took pofrtdion of the coun- try tliat the Vandals had forfakcn when they went into Africa.

In 1576 the States took the fort of Crimpcn, and applied to the queen of England for pecuniary aid ; wlui the next year accommodated thtm with the- lum of 20,000/. ; by which means they were enabled to take (Ihent, where the general union was formed. They afterwards took Utrecht, Breda, and Bovines; which induced the citizens of Amllerdum to join rhe confederates in 157S ; after which they cook Binch and Deventer ; but an iniurro'Jtion taking place at Ghent, the prince of Orange repaired there ; and, having allayed the fedition, accepted the re^^ency of Flar, - ders from Muthias. In it;tic, the States having^ takea Mechlin, Dieft, Sichem, and other places ; the Spaniards, tu prevent their making further progrefs, declared the duke of Ai'jnu ibvereign lord of tiie Netherlands ; :ind the prince of Orange was prolcribed by the king of Spain, who retook Breda; at which time 'the Stares, having renounced theinbcdience, adumed the governmenr. The prince of Orange being (hot, in 1582, the parties were taken and exe- cuted ; and the next year the States toi.k Dunkirk, and feveral other Itrong places.

In 1604 Sluys was taken, in view of the archduke's army : the iile of Cad- fant, the fort of Jfenburg, and Arlon, in Luxemburg, were aHo fubdued the fame year. In 1606 the Spaniards bcfieged Sluys, where they were repulfed with great (laughter J and the people of Embden, by the mediation of England, were re« conciled to their governors. The Dutch obt«,ined a fignal viftory over the Spaniards in the Straits of Gib- raltar in 1607; and the next year the marquis of Spinola was difpatched to the Hague to treat for a peace, which ter- minated in a truce for twelve years ; but in 161 1, the Dutch admiral not lowering his flag to the Spaniards, an engagement took place off Cape St. Vincent's, in which the Spaniards loft three fhips, and the Dutch admiral was killed. In 1613 the Spanifh fleet, going to the Indies, was defeated by the Dutch, who took the caftle of Mina, in the South Sea, and erefted two forts to fecure the navigation of the Ems, having taken Emeric and Rees. In 1616 the States redeemed the towns in poffcftion of the Englifh, and overcame the I'ortuguefe at the Moluc- cas. In 1627 they fortified Grave and Ni- meguen, and the next year deprived the Spaniards of great wealth in the Weft Indies. See Battavia. HOLMIA. } c c^, ^ -.. . Tj > See Seleucia.

M. ao3 5 by Melchizedck : when the Jews entered the Land of Promife, the Jebufnes became poffeffed of it, which they retained 824. years ; but when David afcended the throne of Ifrael, he difpofleded them, and made it the metropolis of his kingdom. In Z974 the city was taken and plundered by Shclac, king of Egypt ; aifo by Jo)s, king of Ifrael, in 3117; by Nebuchadnezzar, king of B.ibylon, in 3360; and after the feventy years captivity, the people, on their return, rebuilt the temple, which had been de- ftroyed, and furrounded the city with a wall. Upon the dilTenfions am6ng the high priefts, in 3591, Vagofcs, lieutenant to Artaxerxes, entered the city, and de- fpoiled it again : in 3638, Ptolemy Lagi, under pretence of facrificing, fur- prifcd the city : in 3780 Antiochu* Epiphanes gained poffelfion of it, and profaned the temple : afterwards, in 3887, it was taken by Pompey, who made it tributary to Rome. The city was fubdued by Titut A. D. 70 J and, upon a rebellion of the Jews, in 132, the emperor Adrian or- dered it to be demolifhed ; but he after- wards repaired the damage that had been done, and prohibited the Jews from en- tering the city. In 636 the Chriftians were expelled the city by the Saracens under Omar, who retained pofleflion of it for the fpace of 504 years. In 1099 Godfrey of Boulogne, with the affiftance of the weftern princes, recovered the city from the Saracens : in 1187 the fultan Sala- dine expelled the Chriftians, and re- tained poffelfion of the city 329 years, when Selimas the Turkifh emperor fubdued them j and it has continued ia the poffeffion of the Turks ever fince that period.

Lechus built Gnefna, where he refid- ed, and fubdued Silcfia, Brandenburg, Pruffia, Mecklenburg, Pomcrania, Hoi- ilein, and Saxony ; he was killed in a duel, and his poftenty continued about 1 50 yeirs, when his line failing in Vif- xner, the people elefted twelve palatines or wayvods to govern them ; and under that form of government they continued a ccniidf^rable time, till the people be- came diffatisfied ; and about A.D. 700, clefted a fingle prince named Cracus, who expelled the Eaft Franks out of his ter- ritories, and built a city which he called Cracow, where he eflablilhed his go- vernmcct; at his death he left two -oas^ Cracus and Lechus, and one daughts?' named Venda ; Cracus fucceeded his fa- ther, but he being killed by his brother', the people baniflied Lechus, and Vendi fucceeded to the government. Rittogarus a German prince folicited her in marriage, whom (he refufedj.on that account he invaded Poland, and being defeated, f«X)n after put an end to his exirtence ; Venda afterwards taking a religious turn made feveral facrihcesi and at length drowned hcrfelf in the river Viltula. After her death the people elefted palatines a^ain, and the country was in- vaded about 758 by the Moravians and Pannonians, who were defeated and driven out of the country by Primiflaus, who was elefted prince under the af- lumed name of Lefchus ; at his death a controverfy arofe about the fucceffion, and the perlbn nxed upon having ufed unfair means to obtain the fuuation, his rival was ele£ted, and ca;led Lefchus IL ; he being killed in an engagement with the French, was fucceeded by Po- pielus, a perfonof a dailardly fpirit, and unfit to govern ; he removed the feat of government from Cracow to Gnefna, and from thence to Crulvicia, where he ereded a caftle ; at his death, PopieJus IL wa"; choftn, and his uncles were ap- pointed guardians during his minority ; he being of a vicious habit, they were in hopes to reclaim him by marriage, and accordingly fixed upon a German prin- cefi, whom he married •, but (he, by her covetoufnefs and cruelty, made him worfe J and taking the government upon herfelf, fhe behaved with great cruelty to her family; after her deceafe there was an interregnum for feveral years. Piaftus Rufticus being elected prince, he removed the feat of government to Gnefna, and was beloved by the people for his mild behaviour, and other excel- lent qualities ; his poftcrity continued for a feries of years, when Meciflaus being chofen,he married Damhrouca, daughter of Bolcllaus duke of Bohemia, and was afterwards baptized ; the kingdom being converted to the faith, he built feveral churches, and made Gnefna and Cracow two bishopries ; after thefe proceedings, he applied to the pope to be inveftcd with the title of king, but was unfuc- cefsful. He was fucceeded by Boleflaus, who being in friendlhip with the emperor, was created king, A.D. 1000; a war breaking out with the Bohemians, they took Cracow, and the Poles took Prague POL POL and Viccgradc, with the king and his Ion Jaroniire ; the eyas of the king were put out, and Moravia being fubJued, Boleflaus waged war with the duke of Prulfia, and took Kiovia from him ; he afterwards took Brandenburg from the Saxons, and invaded Pomerania, where being defeated by the emperor, his nobles became dilfatufied, but were ioon re- duced to their allegiance; when he at- tacked the Ruffians, and being luc- cefsful, demanded tribute from them, which they would not I'ubmit to; on ■ which account, he with an army entered the country, and took feverai of their nobility, whom he imprifoned. Boleflaus dying, was iucceeded by Miefco II, who was attacked by the Bo- hemians ; and Moravia being taken po<- leihon of by them, he retaliated by feizingupon Pomerania, foon after which he died ; and the people being diffatisfied with the queen, Ihc took her fon, with all the treafure flie could collecl, toge- ther with the two crowns of the king- dom to the emperor, who gave her Mag- deburg and Brunfwick, and fent her fon to a monaittry. Maflaus, the cup-bearer, having taken poffeffion of Mazovia, caufed great con- fufion , the nobility agreed to recal their prince Cafimir, but he being ordained a deacon, rejefted their petition till the pope granted him abfolutlon, which be- ing obtained, he returned, and the em- peror reftored the two crowns to him : the rebellion continued for fome time, but was at length fupprefled ; when the prince font for Ibmc monks of his own order, and giving them large polTclfions, exalted Cracow to an archbifhopric ; after this king's death, the nation ap- pears to have been in an unfettled ilate, and was at one time for the Ipace of 215 years without any king. Primiflaus havmgthe crown conferred upon him, was foon after murdered, and civil diffenfions arofe, which caufed a fa- mine and peftilence that carried off great numbers of the inhabitants ; and the go- vernment continued in an unfettled fiate till 1553, when Sigifm\:nd, having caufed the lav.s of the land to be regiltered in fix books, compelled the matter of the Teutonics to fwear fealty to him, and on his fubmiflion created him duke of Courland ; after which, he formed a league with Denmark, and attacked the Swedes, which caufed the Alufcovites to invade Livonia, where thcv were de- feated with the lofs cf 5000 loaded wag- gons, and grca( numbecs 9f ;li«U arm/ HaiA. The people of Dantzic being trouble- fome, he deprived them of many privi- leges they had been accuftomed to, foon after which he died, and Henry duke o£ Bouibuu, brother to the French king, being cleiled to luccced him, took pol- felJion of the kingdom ; but being in- formed of his brother's deatn, he left Cracow in the ni^hi, which caufed the chancellor and his friends to fix upoa Maximilian the emperor ; the Turks in- terfering at this time, caufed Stcphea prince of Tranfylvaniri to be elc<5teJ Ring ; foon after which a peace was concluded with the Muicovitts, upoa their furrendering Kiga and adi Livonia. The people of Dantzic being foon after reconciled, the nation wa^ at peace with- in itlclf when the king died. There being two competitors for the crown, Miximilun duke of Acllria and Sigifmund fon of the king of Suevia, Maximilian was taken prifoncr, and after continuing fo the fpace of two years, was rcleaied, when the queen of Eng- land procured a peace between this coun- try and the Turks. At the inlligation of the iefuits, the nobility met at Lublyn, where the king came unexpcftedly, and caufed fcvcral of them to be (lain, which occafioned a tumuk in the kingdom for the fpace of two years, when the nobles became re- conciled, and the Poles took Smolenlko from the Mufcovites. in i6n, the king confirmed the duke- dom of PruHia on the cledor of Bran- denburg, and his heirs male ; ihe next year the Poles being defeated by the Turks in Waiachia, and by the Mufco- vites in K.ullia, caufed a liedition, and Gnefna fell a prey to the difaffefbed; Sniolenfko was recovered by the Mufco- vites, and a civil war raged in Poland, of Vv-hich the Coil'acks took advantage, and the Tartars invaded Podolia, where they deftroyed four cities, and 400 vil- lages, taking at the fame time immenfe booty. W^alachia being the feat of war, the chancellor and 900 Poles loft their lives there, when a truce being concluded with the Turks, it terminated in a peace both with them and the Swedes.

The celebrated Dr. Blair, late prof e for of rhetoric and belles-lettres in the Univer/itv of Edinburgh, has given his opinion of the Grammar and Exercifes conjointly in the folloiu- ing words : Mr. Linley Murray's Grammar, with the Exercifes and the Key in a feparate Tolume, I efteem as a muft excellent performance. I think it fuperior to any work of that nature we have yet had ; and am perfuaded that it is, by much, the beft grammar of the Englilh language extant. On fyntax, in particular, he has Ihown a wonderful degree of acutenels and precifion, in afcertaining the propriety of language, and in rtftifying the numberlefs errors which writers are apt to com- mit. Moft ufeful thefe books muft certainly be to all who are applying themfelves to the arts of compofition. Odober^ 1800.

" There is juft re-publifhed an Englifli Grammar, &c. by Linley Murray. We have derived uncommon fatisfaftion from the perufal of this performance. Three American editions of it, at Bofton, New York, and Phibdclphia. h^ivc already ap- peared ; and do credit to the publifhers, as well as to our countrymen in general. There is no department of Englifh Grammar overlooked by this auttior, and each is difculfed with that due regard to accuracy on the one hand, and fimplicity on the other, which the bulinefs of inftru-ftion requires. 7^he remarks on profody are curious and valuable; and aftord inftrudtion on a property of our lan^^uage too generally neglected or defpifed. The appendix, in which the rules of corredt compolition are concifely ftated and exoLined, is highly ufcFui."

" We have, on former occafions, given our opinion of Mr. Murray's compilations, which the preient volume has not altered or diminifhed. The fele6tion here offered to the public ir. made with judgment; and we doubt not will be ufeful to thofe for whole inftruition it is defigned." Eurrpean Magazine, A.i:gvfl, i8co. " Animated by the favourable reception of the " Englilh Reader," Mr. Murray here purfues the fame objeft ; and hns not only compiled a judicious and well-ar- ranged fupplcment for the higher z\-&^<:% of learners*, but in order to complete his undertaking has prepared an Introduition to it for the vo««^^r claffes. — We have no doubt that the public will be pleafcd with the addition to both the fronts of the original building. The whole is truly ufeful and well arranged. Difplaying a found judgment, and a6tuated by the purcft motives, this gentleman is indeed entitled to the fullcft praifc.

" Such a compilation may be fafely recommended and put into the hands of youth ; and the 7-uks and ohfervai ions for" ajjifting ibe7n lo tead "ujuh propriety, form to it a very fuitable introduftion. Mr. Murray endeavours to correft thofe errors which children are apt to commit ; and gives fome direftions, which, if obferved, cannot fail to make good readers.

" The prefenc volume, to ufe the words of the Editor, purfues the fame objeft as tire former work ; it prefervts the fame chafte attention to the m.orais of youth ; its materials are taken from the moft coireft and elegant writers ; and as the pieces are generally moie extended, and contain a greater variety of ftyle and compofition, it is calculated m improve, both in fchools and in private families, the higheft clafs of young readers." The introduction of feveral pieces which dif{5)ay the beauty and excellence of the (Jhiiftian Religion, is particularly t a truth which has been ac- knowledged in all ages and nations ; arid, on the flrength of this principle, Mr, Murray has had recourfe to experience, in evincing the power and importance of religion. He has thus furnifhed an intercfting coile£lion of teftimonics ; and wc •ivonder not that a work fo inftruftive and amuiing, as well as impreffive, Ihould have been generally patronized.
