Excerpt from Historical Parallels, Vol. 1 Directed. Should never be forgotten in estimating their claim to applause'. But whatever be our opinion touching Grecian and Roman virtue, or the moral character of the most celebrated portions of their history, these have obtained a degree of currency and notoriety, which render familiar acquaintance with them almost necessary for the fitll understanding of much even of modern literature. The object of this work is to supply, in part, these details fi'om the original historians, and to compare or contrast them with other remarkable incidents of ancient or modern times; in hope of forming a collection of narratives of some interest to those who are not largely read in history. And even those who are in some degree familiar with the subjects here treated, but whose knowledge is chiefly drawn from compilations of modern date, may be gratified by the variety in style, feelings and opinions, observable in a collection of extracts from authors of various dates and nations. We have selected from the Grecian History, in chronological order, as furnishing the readiest prin cipic of arrangement, a series of occurrences of which some have obtained remarkable notoriety, some, being less known, are either striking in themselves, or characteristic of the age and people to which they belong, and finally some, with less intrinsic value, may serve to introduce curious or instructive matter.

Excerpt from Historical Parallels, Vol. 1 of 3 Valuable, therefore as is the assistance of those authors who have devoted their talents and learning to epitomizing and renderin accessible the story of past ages, it is far from desirab c that we should content our selves with a blind trust in them, without checking their assertions, and filling up their sketches by a more detailed knowledge than it is possible for them to communicate. To apply these observations to the ezcat work, the Histo of Greece contained in the Library of Useful Know e necessarily gives a very short account of many things which deserve to be known in detail, both on account of their historical notoriety and for the ia trinsic value which they possess as striking exam es of human power, passion, and sufl'ering. Much of t e ex cessive commendation which has been bestowed upon ancient virtue and Intriotism ought probably to be attri buted to the eager intered naturally excited by the re vival of learning and the culiar circumstancm under which it took place. The scovery of the works of the most celebrated writers of antiquity, whose names at least had not been forgotten, must at any time have pro duced much curiosity and excitement: and peculiarly so when modern literature did not yet possess many names to divide the palm of genius With them. Besides this the political circumstances of the Italian states, in which the new discoveries were at first most successfully and generally prosecuted, would give an additional interest and a peculiar bias to the study of ancient literature; for their inhabitants would naturally be dis osed, as Italians, to exalt in the glories of ancient I y, and as republicans to look for patterns both of polity and of conduct among the famous republics of Greece and Rome.

Excerpt from Historical Parallels, Vol. 2 of 3 Under these circumstances, when an insurrection broke out among the Asiatic Greeks of Ionia and zeolis, the Athenians readily gave their assistance to the revolters. Twenty ships of theirs, with five of the Eretrians, joined the Ionian fleet; the collective force disembarked at Ephesus, marched sixty miles into the interior, took Sardis by surprise, and burnt it. Returning, they were entirely defeated under the walls of Ephesus, and the Athenians then withdrew their ships, and took no further part in the war. These events took place 499.

Excerpt from Cuneiform Parallels to the Old Testament, Vol. 1 of 2 Shortly after the publication of theithird edition of Schrader's book I began the collection and translation of inscriptions with the purpose of supplying to English readers a complete Corpus of all the Assyrian, Baby ionian, and Persian inscriptions which are parallel to or illustrative of the Old Testament. I had then no idea that it would grow to so great a size, or that its preparation would occupy so long a series of years, or that the labor. Involved would be so arduous. I should hardly have dared to undertake with a light heart a task which has taxed my energies during many an hour between lectures, and absorbed nearly all my summer holidays since it began. It has, indeed, cost so much that my early hopes and enthusiasm for it have slipped away, and, like Johnson with his Dic tionary, I therefore dismiss it with frigid tranquillity, having little to fear or hope from censure or from praise.

Bisect the halves: that gives quarters. Bisect again: that gives eighths. Bisect once more that give sixteenths. Voila tout! Nature. (june 13, Shade of Euclid! Who knows not such things? We admitted the same, but stated that our difficulty in the construction was the con dition imposed in the enunciation: viz., the chord of each such sector not less than the radius of the circle.' Take Mr. Dodgson's illustration of a sixteenth: this would necessitate that the original angle should be at least 960 we have further noted that no one of the chords in Mr. Dodgson's figures is even equal to the radius.

Excerpt from The Parallel History of the Jewish Monarchy, Vol. 1: Printed in the Text of the Revised Version 1885; The Reigns of David and Solomon, 1 Samuel 31 to 1 Kings 11, 1 Chronicles 10 to 2 Chronicles 9 I trust the book may be serviceable even to advanced Students, who wish to collate for themselves the two authorities; but it is intended primarily for use in Schools. The difficulty Of following the history in two sometimes concurrent and sometimes divergent authorities, both bound up in the same Bible - and often in very small type - is apt to drive boys to Compendiums and Manuals, ' in which a clear narrative is given, but the dignity and beauty of the original are entirely lost. By te-arranging the text I hope to have made the study of this part of the Bible easier and more attractive. I wish to express my gratitude to the Joint Committee of the Univer sities Of Oxford and Cambridge for leave to print the text of the Revised Version. To Professor Driver, for most readily and kindly allowing me to reprint, as an Introduction, a passage from his Literature of the Old Testament, ' my warmest thanks are due.
