with Questions adapted to the Use of Sunday Schools and

In the first part, the Author's object is to illustrate and
enforce one simple truth, that the child has a soul, distinct
from the body, which will survive it, and live for ever.
In the second part, the inquiry of the child, whither his
soul will go, after his body is dead, and who will take care
of it, is attempted to be answered."

To supply a manifest deficiency in the books already published for the education of the industrial classes, the publishers have undertaken a series of works (which will be brought out at the cheapest rate), whose chief object is to prepare young persons for the choice of an occupation, by instructing them in the peculiar duties, and, as far as requisite, in the technical details of the various departments of SERVICE OF TRADE in which they are likely to be engaged as they advance in

every thing that should be known in a Trade, or to point out the whole details of a Service,-but to give such a general knowledge of the occupations which the mass of the people are called upon to follow, as may prepare the young for the proper discharge of their duties, and systematize much of the practical information which the adult has now, in most cases, to learn without a Guide. These works will, collectively, contain a mass of authentic and amusing information on the various departments of industry in this country, which will be useful and interesting to all readers. They will be illustrated, when necessary, with numerous explanatory Woodcuts.

URE'S DICTIONARY OF ARTS, MANUFACTURES, &c.

DICTIONARY of ARTS, MANUFACTURES, and MINES; containing a clear Exposition of their Principles and Practice. By ANDREW URE, M.D. F.R.S. M.G.S. M.A.S. London; M. Acad. N.S. Philadel.; S. Ph. Soc. North. Germ.; Hanov.; Mulh. &c. &c. Part I. and No. 1, to be completed in Ten Monthly Parts,

[blocks in formation]

5s. each, and Fifty Weekly Numbers, at 1s. each, 8vo. COMPANION to the BOOK of COMMON

illustrated by upwards of 1000 Engravings on Wood.On September 1.

The author has embodied in this work the results of his long experience as a Professor of Practical Science. Since the year 1805, when he entered at an early age upon the arduous task of conducting the Schools of Chemistry and Manufactures in the Andersonian University, up to the present day, he has been assiduously engaged in the study and improvement of most of the Chemical, and many of the Mechanical Arts. Consulted professionally by proprietors of factories, workshops, and mines, of various descriptions, both in this country and abroad, concerning derangements in their operations, or defects in their products, he has enjoyed peculiar opportunities of becoming familiar with their minutest details, and has frequently had the good fortune to rectify what was amiss, or to supply what was wanting. Of the stores of information thus acquired, he has availed himself on the present occasion; careful meanwhile to neglect no means of knowledge which his extensive intercourse with foreign nations affords.

He humbly hopes this work will prove a valuable contribution to the literature of science, serving

In the first place, to instruct the Manufacturer, Metallurgist, and Tradesman, in the principles of their respective processes, so as to render them in reality the masters of their business, and to emancipate them from a state of bondage to operatives, too commonly the slaves of blind prejudice and vicious routine;

Secondly, to afford to Merchants, Brokers, Drysalters, Druggists, and Officers of the Revenue, characteristic descriptions of the commodities which pass through their hands;

Thirdly, by exhibiting some of the finest developments of Chemistry and Physics, to lay open an excellent practical school to Students of these kindred sciences;

Fourthly, to teach capitalists, who may be desirous of placing their funds in some productive bank of industry, to select judiciously among plausible claimants;

Fifthly, to make gentlemen of the law well acquainted with the nature of those patent schemes which are so apt to become subjects of litigation;

Sixthly, to present to legislators such a clear exposition of our staple manufactures, as may prevent them from enacting laws which obstruct industry, or cherish one branch of it to the injury of many others; and

Lastly, to give the general reader, intent chiefly on intellectual cultivation, a view of many of the noblest achievements of science, where its boundless resources have most ingeniously effected those grand transformations of matter, to which Great Britain owes her paramount wealth, rank, and power among the kingdoms.

Among many other interesting Articles, the following will be found in the First Part:

DE PORQUET'S FRENCH GENDERS, RE-ISSUE of the CHURCH of ENGLAND

printed in Two Colours, Blue and Red; forming, also, UN PETIT VOCABULAIRE, Français et Anglais. "It has been suggested to the author of this publication, that the study of the French Genders might be made more easy of attainment, by printing elementary works for the use of the early scholar in two colours, making the red to designate the feminine, and the blue the masculine. It was argued that Mnemonics would be more assisted by the aid of colour, and that the intimate connexion existing both between vision, memory, and recollection, might derive great assistance from such a method.

"On this simple fact alone the author will present this little work as the avant-courier of more extensive and comprehensive elementary publications, in which the principle will be more elaborated, if the experiment, now for the first time submitted to public ordeal, receives its (4707)

sanction."

MAGAZINE.-The Publishers of this Periodical, in order to suit the convenience of those who wish to possess it complete from the beginning, and who, at the same time, prefer purchasing it periodically, have resolved to re-issue the Work in Monthly Parts from the commencement. Part 1 will be published on the 1st of September, containing Eight Weekly Numbers (128 pages imperial 8vo.), stiched in a handsome wrapper, price ONE SHILLING; and a Part will continue to appear on the 1st of each succeeding month until the original series is overtaken. New editions of all the Numbers that were deficient being now ready, subscribers may depend upon the publication proceeding with the utmost regularity.

It should be noticed, that the contents of the Work are of permanent value, and not, like many other periodicals, dependent for their interest upon the time at which they first appear.

Booksellers may be supplied with Prospectuses on application to the Publishers, or through their London Agents. (4709) J. Burns, 17, Portman Street. W. Edwards, 12, Ave-Maria Lane.
