A FRENCH GRAMMAR, by Count de Laporte-Ots,
Broaders IL Co., Boston.-In the acquisition of any
language, grammar is most needed by scholar.
But, unfortunately, few grammars fully answer the
purpose for which they are designed. But this work
forms a exception to the preceding remark.
Its author has acquired high reputation in Boston
as teacher in the University of Cambridge, and
his talented education renders him peculiarly COM
petent tor the proper production OF awork such as
he has now offered to the public. This volume is
not a compilation of others previously published BY
Manesca, Wanos trocht, and several others. II is
an entirely new work, written IN a new style;
grammar which compels the student to reason and
compare, by which he not only remembers, out ne
understands the French language and, instead OF
being difficult him, il becomes pleasant and salts
factory This work has been followed by two other
pubcations-the "Speaking Exercises, and the
"SelfTeaching Reader'-which are both compl-
mentary 10 Count De Laportes writings. They all
possess intrinsic merit and will attract attention
and impart the best instruction TO the scholar Ihey
are earnestly recommended to teachers and to one
who is not acquainted with the French they are In
diSpensable and invaluable.
