              THE YOUNG STUDENT;
Or Ralph and Victor. By Madame Guizat. From the French, by Samuel
  Jackson. One elegant volume of 50X pages, with illustrations. Price 75
  cents.
  " This volume of biographical incidents is a striking picture of juvenile
life. To all that numberless class of youth who are passing through their
literary education, whether in boarding-schools or academnies, in the colle-
giate course, or the preparatory studieo connected with them, we know
nothing more precisely fitted to meliorate their character, and direct their
course, subordinate to the higher authority of Christian ethics, than this
excellent delineation of ' The Young Student,' by Madame Guizot. It is a
perfect reflecting mirrot, in which the whole race may behold the resolution,
the impetuosity, and the disobedient tendencies of their own hearts, as ex-
emplified in the history of Ralph; and the moral daring, dignity, and triumph,
exhibited by Victor. But it is not the son alone who is taught by Madame
Guizot-every father, also, who has children still under the age of manhood,
and even I grandpas,.can derive rich edification from the example of Ralph's
father and Victor's guardianship. The French Academy were correct in
theiu judgment when they pronounced Madame Guizot's Student the best
book of the year."-JVX. Y. Courier 4. faquirer.

  AuTrHoR's PRMFACz.-In writing the following pages, my most earnest
desire has been to awaken in the hearts of little children, kindly and afey-
tiotate feelings towards each other, submission and loving confidence to.
wards their parents, and reverence and love towards God. This I have
attempted in describing scenes and objects most of which must be familiar
to every child. The language I have used is the easiest I could command,
so that a child of three yearsoJd may understand it.

For very Little Children. In single syllables of three and four letters.
  From the sixth London edition; illustrated with numerous engravings.
  Elegantly bound in cloth. Price 37 1-2 cents.
      The type of this little volume is quite a curiosity, it is so large.
  "The suitableness of this little work to its object, is proved by the fact
that the first edition went off within thiee weeks Iromn the day of its publica-
tion. and that a foufth was required in F few months. It is designed for
children who have just acquired the knowledge of their alphabet; a period
in juvenile education which has been hitherto left without any provision of
the kind."-Eztract from Preface.
