PROFESSOR BROOKS'S GREEK AND LATIN CLASSICS. THIS series of ihe GREEK and LATIN CLASSICS is on an improved plan, with peculiar adaptation lo the wants of the American student. To secure accuracy of text in the works that are to appear, ihe latest and most approved European editions of the different classical authors will be con- suited. Original illustrative and explanatory notes, prepared by the Editor, will accompany the text. These notes, though copious, will he intended to direct and assist the student in his labors, rather than by rendering ever) thing loo simple, to supersede the necessity of due exertion on his own part, and thus induce indolent habits of study and reflection, and feebleness of intellect.* In the notes that accompany the text, care will be taken, on all proper occasions, to developc and promote in the mind ofthe student, sound principles of Criiicmm. Rhetoric, llistor}. Political Science, Morals and general Religion so that he may contemplate the subject of the author he IB reading, not within the circumscribed limit* of a mere rendering of the text, but consider it in all its extended connections and relations and thus learn to think, as v\eil us to translate In commenting upon the text, besides illustrations und parallelisms from the ancient Classics, it ie proposed, in this series, to draw from the treasures of Modern History and Literature copious materials for comparison and illustration, so as to insure on the pan of tha student an acquaint ance with general Belles-Lettres- Especially is it intended lo elucidate Grecian and Roman History and the Polities of AVTIQUITY by the history and institutions of our own country, and to sanctify the pag-es of heathen Poeiry and Theology by apposite and parallel passages from tha Bible, and thus fosier our distinctive nationality by Plumping early upon ihe minde of our youth, ihe impress of Republicanism and Christianity. The following works have already appeared, or will be speedily produced: Brooks's First Latin Lessons.

i RECOMMENDATIONS. From the Rev. J. P. K. HENSOAW, D. D., Episcopal Bishop of Rhode Island, I am glad to pereehe that Sorlu & Ball, of Philadelphia, propose to Issue a series of classical work* Under the able editorial direction of Professor N. C. Brooks. Mlnle the latest and most accurate European editions will furnish the text of the proposed series, the wcli-knnwn literary tastn and skill of the Editor wiil ensure all such illustrations and explana tions tiB may be needed to aid the researches of the pupil, without relieving him from the necessity and labor of careful study. The undersigned recommends the enterprise as deserving patronage from the friends of education. J. P. K. IIKNSIIAW. Providence, Jan. 6,1846. From, the Rev. W. R. V, niTTIXGHAM, V. />-, Episcopal Bishop of Maryland. Mr DEAH SIR, The subject of our last conversation has been often in my thoughts, and the result in a confirmation of the opinion thi-n expressed, that a series of Classical school-books prepared on the plan that you propose, is highly desirable, and if competently executed, must be of great advantage to the schools and colleges of our country. I kno^r that you wili bring to the work many of the most Important qualifications, and confidently trust the result of your undertaking will be a lasting benefit to the youth of our country, and a proportionate increase of the high reputation you alreedy enjoy. Baltimore, Jan. 6,1846. Very faithfully, your friend and servant^ W. R. WHITTINGIIAM. From the Rev. BEVERLY WAUGH, Bishop of the Methodist E. Church. From the acquaintance I have formed with N. C. Brooks, he stands high In my esteem, both as a gentleman and a scholar. He is a man of great moral worth. His character and abilities have been older long enough than he. before tho public to secure to him a reputation which seldom falls to the lot of one not The foregoing plan, in my opinion, is admirably adapted to facilitate the study of tho Latin and Greek Classics, and promises great advantage to academical aud collcgiato students, Baltimore, Jan. 6,1846. " B. WAUGH. From the Rev. S. S. SCOMUCKEK, D. D., President of Theological Seminary. THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY, GETTYSBURG, Itibntary 3d, 1846. GENTLEMEN, After an examination of Professor Brooks'e books, which you sent me, I take pleasure In expressing my high sen.se of the scholarship of the author, as well as of the accuracy and excel lence of these works. I doubt not, that an impartial judgment will assign to them a respectable rank among the better class of text books for the study of the Roman tongue. S. S. SCIIMUCKER. From the Rev. C. P. KEAUTH, D. D^ President of Pennsylvania CoUege. DEAR SIR, Your edition of Ross's Grammar appears to me to contain every thing that could be desired. Its great copiousness, in view of the small bulk of the volume, must bring it into extensive use. Your Latin Lessons aro admirable, and just the book needed by beginners, and it must com mand more extensive patronage than the Grammar, because iji has not, so far as I know, any repu table competitor in use in our country. I hope your useful labors wili be rewarded. Yours with respect, C. P. KRAUTU. From the Rev. W. M. REYNOLDS, A. Jtf.t President of Wittenberg College. DE\H SIR, I am very much pleased with the "Latin Lessons." It Is juet such a book as I have long felt anxious to place in the hands of those commencing the study of Latin. Many things in your First Lessons hnvo struck mo very favorably. Its brevity and plainness, its freshness, and its American tone, all combine to make it the very book which our tyros need to initiate them into tbif science. I venturo to prophesy your full success in this enterprise, and herewith offer you my con gratulations upon it Yours respectfully, W. M. REYNOLDS. From EDTVARD SPARES, A. If., M. Z>., Professor of Ancient Languages* ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE, ANNAPOIIB, MR, January 2ith, 1 846. DEIR SIR, With your revised edition of Ross's Latin Grammar I am much pleased. As a practical proof of my favorable opinion of Its merits, I have directed a class, rircntiy transferred from the Grammar school to the Collegiate department of St. John's, to furnish themselves with copies, to be used as " text-books" on their revision of Grammar. I am also much gratified with your "First Latin Lessons." This, I pprceive, is the first of a full series to be edited by you. I wish you all the success which has attended the productions of your pen In another department, and which Is confidently anticipated by your friends and those acquainted frith your general knowledge, suporaddcd to a long experience as a practical teacher. Very respectfully yours, JSDtt'AllD SPARKS, M. D From A. FBEITAO, LL. D., of the University of Gb'ttingen, now Professor of Languages, Baltimore. DEiR SIR, Having carefully examined Ross's Latin Grammar, as revised and amended by yon, I find it every way equal, if not superior, to any used in our schools. After R thorough perusal of your Latin Lessons, I take pleasure in acknowledging that never, even in my " fatherland," have I seen * 388 RECOMMENDATIONS. . ..,, « wtt»r to every patrio __ __ _. Yours respectfully, A. FRE1TAG. From the Rev. E. J. WALLACB, A. Jf.t Professor of Language*, Delaware CoUege. 389 DELAWABE COLLEGE, NEWARK, Ylth January, 1846. DEAR Snu Rosa's Latin Grammar has long appeared to me a valuable work. With your improve ments in clearness and Arrangement, it will stiil be more acceptable. The additions jou have made have greatiy Increased the value of the book. The Latin Lessons supply a want which teachers must have felt, particularly In regard to those who commence Latin when quite young. Wishing you all success in your efforts to elevate the standard of Classical learning, v I remain, :_ yours -. truly, . B. J. ' . WALLACE. From E. A.

From our knowledge of Mr. Brooks s thorough classical acquirements and nicely correct judgment, we have fuil confidence In the success of the undertaking, and its consequent popularity. Broadway (J\r. JT.) Journal. From Professor CASTANIS, a native Greek. RICHMOND, VA., July lOfo, 1844, DEAR Snu Your Lessons for the acquisition of Greek, I have examined with pleasure. It is a sort of intellectual whetetonc, that sharpens the devotco of Pluto's tongue to the last page. Yon know that this lanpuage to a beginner is a precipitous Parnassus, full of chasms, chimeras and labyrinths, but a methodical book, such as yours, guides him like a torch, to reach with slow but sure steps the bright of its sublimity. I am glad to sec the accents are more correctly placed In this than any work of the kind that has fallen under my observation in this country. Tery truly yours, C. PLATO CASTAXIS. BROOKS s OVID'S METAMORPHOSES. This work, from the specimen before UP, we have no hesitation In paying will reflect much credit upon the learning of its author and add very considerably to the high reputation he has already acquired in this department of science. It abounds with numerous critical and explanatory notes. These notes contain a vast amount of useful information, not only elucidating the text, but developing the remarkable coincidences between the evente recorded by the poet, and those of sacred history, and thereby establishing in a very clear and satisfactory manner the authenticity of the Scriptures as a divino revelation. On this account It cannot fail to be highly useful to the Biblical student. Tho plan upon which this edition is constructed will tend to remove to a great degree one of the principal objections that have been urged against the use of this poet in nnr schoois and colleges. Evangelical (Monthly) Repofitory. PROFESSOR BROOKS'S OVID'S METAMORPHOSES. The work in question Is embellished with splendid pic torial illustrations, and yet more brilliant glossarlal commentaries and illustrations of the text in Kngliflh. This valuable book Is chiefly intended for the use of schools; but it should not only adorn the library of every person of finished education and refined taste, but thos« of the reading pnbllc generally. To those who know but little Latin, it supplies every deficiency; and for those entirely withont that language, the notes alone afford a fund of instruction and amusement. The coincidences of thought and expression between those of the Roman bard and the inspired poets and historians, are peculiarly striking; aud the masterly manner in which these arc collected and compared with them, and with the best ancient aud modern authors in all languages, bespeaks the erudition aswelj as the industry of the editor. The (N. Y.) Home Journal. OVID'S METAMORPHOSES, BY PROFESSOR N. C- BROOKS. " In nova fort animus mutatas dlcere formas." Yes, here's & metamorphosis, indeed, worthy to be sung by the Roman bard himself, but appreciable only by the schoolboy of the old regime..... Verily thou art now changed, O! Publlus Ovidius Naso. not only from thy first form upon the long roll of Prrgamcon skin, or in the rough sheets of dingy Egyptian papyrus, but even from what thou wast In the days of thy Delphinian glory 1.... We were about to say that eur poet would scarcely know himself in this new form, and yet, methinks, he would rejoice In it. It is, indeed, like the resurrection of the poet in a more glorious form. The notes nhow Prof. BROOKS to be a good, rlpa scholar, a man of taste, a genuine poet, and a most accomplished teacher. To a boy no Latin author Is more interesting than Ovid, and we do not know that any is siore profitable. He Is the great store-house of ancient mythology, worth all the " Tooke's Pan theons," and " Classical Dictionaries," and ** Manuals of Classical Literature," that were ever written for the purpose of Introducing tho scholar to the deities of Parnassus, old Npptuno and his watery train, Pluto and his Infernal realm's together with all the demigods, heroes and monsters, and wild legends of Greece and Home. And then his simple style, and his smooth and faultless hexameters, are just what the young scholar requires in order to familiarize him with the capacity of tho lan guage, and to Impress npon his ear and memory all the peculiarities of Latin quantity In the Augus tan era. We. therefore, most cordially wish Prof. Brooks and his enterprising publishers abundant sncccM In tbe spirited undertaking which promises so much for tho interests of classical literature among us. The book does credit to the literature, typography, and taste of our country, and we doubt whether ny edition of the author, that has yet been published, can vie with it in the elegance of Its execu tion.
