DR. ARNOLD'S WORKS.

1.

THE HISTORY OF ROME,

From the Earliest Period. Reprinted entire from the last English edition One vol., 8vo. $3 00.

II.

HISTORY OF THE LATER ROMAN COMMON

WEALTH.

Two vols. of the English edition reprinted entire in 1 vol., 8vo. $250. The History of Rome will remain, to the latest age of the world, the most attractive, the most useful, and the most elevating subject of human contemplation. It must ever form the basis or a liberal and enlightened education, and present the most important subject to the con templation of the statesman. It is remarkable, that until the appearance of Dr. Arnold's volames, no history, (except Niebuhr's, whose style is often obscure) of this wonderful people existed, commensurate either to their dignity, their importance, or their intimate connection with modern institutions. In the preparation and composition of the history, Dr. Arnold expended many long years, and bent to it the whole force of his great energies. It is a work to which the whole culture of the man, from boyhood, contributed-most carefully and deeply meditated, pursued with all the ardor of a labor of love, and relinquished only with life. O the conscientious accuracy, industry, and power of mind, which the work evinces-its clearness, dignity, and vigor of composition-it would be needless to speak. It is eminently calculated to delight and instruct both the student and the miscellaneous reader."- Boston Courier.

III.

Delivered in Lent Term, 1842, with the Inaugural Lecture delivered in 1841. Edited, with a Preface and Notes, by Henry Reed, M. A., Prof. of English: Literature in the University of Pa. 12mo. $1 25.

"The Lectures are eight in number, and furnish the best possible introduction to a philosophi cal study of modern history. Prof. Reed has added greatly to the worth and interest of the volume, by appending to each lecture such extracts from Dr. Arnold's other writings as would more fully illustrate its prominent points. The notes and appendix which he has thus furnished are exceedingly valuable."-Courier and Enquirer.

ROMAN

OF THE

REPUBLIC.

One handsome 12mo. volume. Paper cover 75 cts. Cloth $1.

"M. Michelet, in his History of the Roman Republic, first introduces the reade; to the Ancient Geography of Italy; then by giving an excellent picture of the present state of Rome and the surrounding country, full of grand ruins, he excites in the reader the desire to investigate the ancient history of this wonderful land. He next imparts the results of the latest investigations, entire, deeply studied and clearly arranged, and saves the u educated reader the trouble of investigating the sources, while he gives to the more educated mind an impetus to study the literature from which he gives very accurate quotations in his notes. He describes the peculiarities and the life of the Roman people in a masterly manner, and he fascinates every reader, by the brilliant clearness and vivid freshness of his style, while he shows himself a good historian, by the justness and impartiality with which he relates and philosophizes."

HISTORY OF ENGLAND,

FROM

THE PEACE OF UTRECHT TO THE PEACE OF PARIS

BY LORD MAHON

EDITED BY

HENRY REED, LL.D.,

Prof of English Literature in the University of Pennsylvanta

Two handsome 8vo. volumes. Price $5.

Mr. Macaulay's Opinion.

"Lord Mahon nas undoubtedly some of the most valuable qualities of a historiangreat diligence in examining authorities, great judgment in weighing testimony, and great impartiality in estimating characters."

Quarterly Review.

"Lord Mahon has shown throughout, excellent skill in combining, as wel. as con trasting, the various elements of interest which his materials afforded; he has continued to draw his historical portraits with the same firm and easy hand; and no one can lay down the book without feeling that he has been under the guidance of a singularly clear. high-principled, and humane mind; one uniting a very searching shrewdness with a pure and unaffected charity. He has shown equal courage, judgment, and taste, in availing himself of minute details, so as to give his narrative the pictu esqueness of a memoir, without sacrificing one jot of the real dignity of history His History well calculated to temper the political judgment. It is one great lesson of modesty, f searance, and charity.'

Edinburgh Review.

"It was with no small satisfaction that we saw a history of this period announced from the pen of Lord Mahon, nor have we been disappointed in our expectations. His narrative is minute and circumstantial, without being tedious. His History of the Re bellion in particular is clear, distinct, and entertaining. In his judgment of persons he is on the whole fair, candid, and discriminating."

English Review.

"Lord Mahon's work will snpply a desideratum which has long been f -a really good history of the last 150 years. It is written with an ease of style, a comand of the inbject, and a comprehensiveness of view, which evince the possession of nigh qualifica tions for the great task which the noble author has proposed to himseif. Lord Mahon Bvails himself extensively of the correspondence and private diaries of the times, which gives unusual interest and life to the narrative. . . . The authorities quoted for Spanish or French details are always the original; and we can hardly remember a refer ence of his Lordship's on any subject which is not to the best testimony known a accessible."

Sismondi-Histoire des Français.

"Sur le Prince Charles Edouard, en 1745-nous renvoyons uniquement à l'admirakls récit de cette expédition dans l'Histoire de Lord Mahon. Toutes les relations y sa parées et jugées avec une saine critique, et le récit presente le vif interét d'un roman.'

Professor Smyth-University of Cambridge.

"I may recommend to others, what I have just had so much pleasure in reading my self, the History lately published by Lord Mahon. All that need now be known of the from the Peace of Utrecht to that of Aix-la-Chapelle, will be there found,'

PUBLISH

Philosophy of Sir Wm. Hamilton, Bart.

Prof. of Logic and Metaphysics in the Edinburgh University,

ARRANGED AND EDITED BY

O. W. WIGHT,

Translator of "Cousin's History of Philosophy

One handsomely printed Volume. 8vo. Price $1 50. Cloth,

Opinions of the Press.

"The publication of this work will do much good if it leads to the more general and profound study of philosophy in American schools and colleges. Hamilton has never embodied his system in any one treatise, but his ideas are scattered through many dissertations and notes on the writings of other philosophers. Mr Wight has therefore performed a somewhat arduous and responsible task in collecting and arranging the materials of this volume. He has investigated Hamilton's Philosophy very thoroughly, and "commends it to educators, not only for its great excellence as a metaphysical system, for its profound thought, and affluent erudition, for its spirit of inquiry, and consequently its power to quicken the mind; but, above all, for its accordance with the principles of revealed religion."--Commercial Advertiser.

"Beyond all controversy, Sir William Hamilton stands at the head of the eminent thinkers of the age who have devoted themselves to the philosophy of mind; and for penetration of intellect, grasp of subject, acuteness of analysis, and boundless resources of erudition, he distances all his compeers. We are greatly pleased at seeing this important volume given to the American colleges and the thoughtful public in such a becoming style, and we would feel honored if our notice of it may induce the Professors of Logic and Metaphysics in any of our colleges to procure this work forthwith, and enter on its study with that diligence and thought which its depth and value demand." -Presbyterian Banner.
