Like all of Mrs. Sadlier's translations, it is carefully and correctly translated. One can read it without having the thought of its being a translation continually before the mind. The Abbé Barthe's Meditations on the Litany of Loretto, also translated by Mrs. Sadlier, greatly enhance the value of this volume.

J., Author of "Analytical Geometry," and "Elementary Algebra." -10. Rudiments of the Greek Language: arranged for the Students of Loyola College, Baltimore. Upon the Basis of Wettenhall. Baltimore: John Murphy & Co. 1855. [We have examined with much pleasure the mathematical treatises of Father Sestini. They omit nothing that can be desired, and although we sometimes think he dwells too long on a point of comparatively small importance, still, as this is only a matter of taste, it cannot greatly affect the value of his books. We hope to see them used in all the Catholic schools and colleges in the country. We may say the same as regards the Greek Grammar which we have received from the same publishers. It is arranged after Wettenhall, and is, we think, the best Greek Grammar that we have seen. It is small and comprehensive, and will not overcharge the memory of the student with matter which is not necessary to be remembered. Once more we hope these books will be adopted as text-books in all our schools.] 11. The Studies and Teaching of the Society of Jesus, at the Time of its Suppression, 1750-1773.

[Interesting to Methodists, not worth much for Catholics.] It is impossible for us to read and notice all the new publications sent us by our good friends the booksellers, but we shall always make it a point to publish in a quarterly list the titles of all works sent us, not of an immoral tendency. More than that we cannot promise to do. |
