Présentation de l'éditeur

Teacher, with very little intermission, for thirty-five years. I have served in the private ranks; and though serving in this humble station, I have not been a mere incurious drudge, performing my daily task withoM tobservation, and without inspection into the nature and reasons for the various evolutions, manoeuvres and discipline, practised in the field of literary campaigns. Therefore, stimulated by a motive common to us all, and by no means unworthy of our high destination, I have attempted to rescue from the shades of oblivion those services, which would otherwise fall a sacrifice to the ravages of time. This monument however, consists not in marble columns, ornamented with glowing inscriptions; nor in titles, interspersed on the pages of history, but in aU tile Booh, containing illustrations of the nature and use of that literary instrument, called Language, written or spoken; and also shewing the formation and economy of its manual, called Grammar; in which explanations are given, and rules and directions laid down for literary discipline.
