Bt Noah Webstee, LL. D. The following an from among the numerous testimonials in favor of the work which have at ready appeared: 1 RECOMMENDATIONS. Wo consider Dr. Webster na eminently qualified to I prepare a work of this kind. H» extensive acquain | lance with the early history of nations, and especially our own—the result of fifty yesrs of investigation—is 1 the best pledge for the accuracy of his statements; while the personal knowledge of the events of our re volution and the establishment of our government, gives a freshness and interest to his narrative, which •re rarely it ever to be found in the pages of a more compiler. We therefore cordially recommend this work, as adapted to general use in families & schools. JEREMIAH DAY, President or Yale College. BENJAMIN SILL1MAN, Prof. Chemistry, Mineralogy, Sec. CHAUNCEY A.

Durrie & Peck—I have taken some pains to nc<|uaint myself with the character of Dr. Webster’s l “ History of tne United States.” It is, in my opinion, I a work of great merit, and admirably adapted to the I purposes alike of our public and private schools. It ! will not injure the. reputation of its illustrious author. I 1 shall immediately recommend it to the Visiting Com mittee lor adoption into the higher classes of the Lan Principal of the Lancasterian school. The Committee of the School Society in New-Ha ven have concluded to introduce Webster’s History of the United States into the Lancasterian school, and to recommend its use in the other schools in the Nsw Haven School Society, as n useful and concise com pend of history, well adapted for juvenile instruction. Regitter. The volume contains many facts not contained in any other History, and as a school book has the advan tage of combining at once, with the exercises of thn schools, a knowledge of our country and its institu tions.—Conn. Herald. The work will not fail to meet with a welcome re ception whenever it is seen.—N. Haven Palladium. From the Rev. T. Marsh, late Rector of St. Michael’s Church, Litchfield. This certifies, that I have perused “A History of the United Slates,” written by Noah Webster, LL. D. It is well calculated to benefit the rising generation. It gives an intuitive and correct view of the most im portant events attending the discovery and history of North Americn. It is adapted to the wants, capacity and taste of youth. I hope it may find a place in eve S’ library, and especially in our High and Common chools. The purity of tie style, ana the correctness of its facts, must please every patron of science, and every friend of virtue and humanity. Doct. Webster was the first man who succeeded in attempting to an alyse or parse the English language. He has done more to explain its true principles, to investigate its peculiar idioms, to trace its etymology, and banish its corruptions, than any other person that ever lived.— His name ought to be revered, and bis philological writings ought to be studied, Ly every classical scho lar, and more especially by every American, who is I disposed to patronise learning, nr encourage religion. Sept. 3,1832. TRUMAN MARSH. From the Rev. Mr. Hickok, Pastor of the First Con gregatidhal Church, Litchfield. 1 have examined to some extent Dr. Webster’s History of the United States, and am highly pleased both with tlie-plan and execution. While it is emi nently calculated for the improvement of the youthful mind in Common Schools, there is also much valuable information, both of historical facts and philosophical and philological disquisition, which renders it profita ble to more mature and cultivated intellects. I can not but hope that it may have a very general circula tion. L. P. HICKOK. IMch.field. Sept. 4, 1832 From the Principal of the Litchfield Female Academy. I have examined, with much pleasure, Dr. Web | ster’s History of the United States, and have been highly gratified with its plan nnd execution. As an elementary work for our primary schools, it surpasses any I hare seen; and whether read as a class book, or partially committed to memory, will be equally useful. JOHN P. BRACE.
