As  far  as  our  recollection  goes,  we  do  not  think  there  exists  in  any  language  a
book  on  so  difficult  a  subject  as  this  so  carefully,  clearly,  and  lucidly  written.  —

COOKE'S  CHEMICAL  PHYSICS.  Elements  of  Chemi-
cal Physics.  By  Professor  JOSIAH  P.  COOKE,  Jr.  Third  Edition.
8vo,  750  pages.  $5.00.
This  volume  is  intended  to  furnish  a  full  development  of  the  principles  in-
volved in  the  investigation  of  chemical  phenomena.  In  order  to  adapt  it  to  the
purposes  of  instruction,  it  has  been  prepared  on  a  strictly  inductive  method  through-
out; and  any  student  with  an  elementary  knowledge  of  mathematics  will  be  able
to  follow  the  course  of  reasoning  without  difficulty.  Each  chapter  is  followed  by  a
large  number  of  problems,  which  are  calculated,  not  only  to  test  the  knowledge  of
the  student,  but  also  to  extend  and  apply  the  principles  discussed  in  the  work.
lENNELL'S   ANCIENT   HISTORIES.
ANCIENT   GREECE,  from  the  Earliest   Times  down  to
146  B.  c.      By  R.  F.  PENNELL,  Professor  of  Latin  in  Phillips
Exeter  Academy.   With  Map  and  Plans.    16mo,  130  pages.    75  cents.
ROME,  from  the  Earliest  Times  down  to  476  A.D.  16mo,
206  pages.  75  cents.
These  books  are  compiled  respectively  from  the  works  of  Curtius  and  Rawlinson,
and  from  Mommsen  and  Niebuhr.  They  contain  amply  sufficient  matter  to  prepare
a  pupil  for  any  of  our  colleges.  All  minor  details  are,  however,  omitted,  thus
avoiding  a  confused  mass  of  matter  so  perplexing  to  every  beginner.  Important
events,  names,  and  dates  are  printed  in  heavy  type,  strongly  impressing  them
upon  the  student's  memory.
