RECOMMENDATIONS OF THIS WORK.

"We have had frequent occasion to speak of the diligence, good sense, and good intentions, of Mr. Murray; and we congratulate him sincerely on the success of this particular work. We announce this edition, because the alterations and additions are so considerable, that it is rendered almost a new work."-British Critic, July, 1801.

"The examples which Mr. Murray has here selected, and the judicious reflections which accompany them, are such as can scarcely fail to make the best impressions, and to produce the best effects, on all who read them with attention. The present edition of this excellent publication, which has been long known and commended, is enlarged by the addition of twenty-two new characters, filling nearly one hundred pages.”—Anti-Jacobin Review, January, 1804.

"We have received the tenth and last edition of this valuable work. The improvements made in it, will appear from the Author's Advertisement. We can only add to this account of the present useful volume, our hope that it will be extensively circulated among our countrymen."-The American Review and Literary Journal, for July, August, and September, 1801.

"On reviewing this book, in its improved form, we find the facts unquestionable and highly interesting-the style correct and neat-and the general tendency of the work such as induces us strongly to recommend it, especially to young readers; who love entertainment mingled with instruction."-Evangelical Magazine, Octo ber, 1801.

"The rapid sale of this small but valuable collection, has antici: pated the commendation we are desirous to bestow. In an exem. plification of more than seventy remarkable characters, many striking examples are exhibited, which, in the quiet hour of reflection, may contribute to arrest the careless and wandering; to animate the sincere and virtuous; and to convince or discountenance those who have been unhappily led to oppose the highest truths.”—Gentle man's Magazine, November, 1803.
