The materials are arranged with much general accuracy; and the whole may be recommended to young perfons, as containing much ufeful information.

ART. 47. A Concife Treatife of Modern Geography, upon a new Plan; with Hiftorical Remarks, detached from the Scientifical Part of the Work. To which are fubjoined, a Ňumber of Geographical Questions, adapted to the prefent Work. By B. Donne, Author of the Map of 21 Miles round Brifol, &c. 1804.

Among the various productions of this kind, which diligence and ingenuity have produced for the inftruction and benefit of young perfons, this merits confiderable refpect. It is indeed a very convenient and ufeful manual.

ART. 48. A Letter addreffed to the Right Hon. Lord Hobart, his Majefty's Principal Secretary of State for the Colonial Department. By Colonel Thomas Pilon, late Governor and Captain General of the Ifland of Trinidad, and Brigadier General commanding his Majefty's Troops in that Ifland. 8vo. 1c6 pp. 1s. Lloyd. 1804.

ART. 49. A Refutation of the Pamphlet which Colonel Piaton lately addreed to Lord Hobart. By Colonel Fullarton, F. R. S. 4to. 89 pp. 2s. 6d. Stockdale. 1805.

The above two pamphlets, relating to an unfortunate dispute between the firft Cominiflioner for feitling the government of Trinidad and his colleagues (which is ftill fub judice) it would be improper in us to pafs any judgment on the contents of either. Indeed, as they both refer to former ftatements of the controverfy, the true grounds of it cannot, we think, be precifely afcertained from these publications. That of Colonel Fullarton, however, alludes to them. But we must leave this affair entirely to the high tribunal to which it has been referred, lamenting that any circumftances fhould have produced fuch bitter animofity as appears to exist between perfons who were jointly invested with fo important a trust.

ART. 50. A Letter addreffed to the Right Hon. William Pitt, concerning the Eftablishment of an adequate Provifion and Penfion for Sailors and Soldiers, after certain Length of Services, as being the most effectual Plan of recruiting both the Navy and Army at the prefent or any future Crifis. By the Hon. and Rev. James Athol Cochrane, formerly Chaplain to the 82d Regiment of Foot. 8vo. 8 pp. 6d. Mawman. 1805.

The plan fuggefted by this author is fo fully expreffed in the titlepage, that to add much from the Letter itself would be almost to copy the contents of it. His principle is," that the future condition of a failor or foldier in old age fhould be made, by a penfion, increasing according to length of fervices or fufferance from wounds, fuperior to what may be deeined the average provifion, gained by handicraft labour." We believe with him that fuch a provifion (whenever practicable) would afford an inducement to many more perfons to enter into

the

the naval and military profeffions. How the requifite funds are to be provided for fuch a large increase to the permanent expenditure, is a problem which would not prove fo eafy of folution to Minifters as it feems to be to this author. His intention is, however, meritorious; and certainly every plan that promifes the attainment of fo defirable an object as the speedy increase of our fea and land forces, deferves a candid confideration.

ART. 51. Paterfon's Roads, in a pocket Size, for the Convenience of Travellers on Horseback, &c. &c. s. Longman and Co. 1804. This is an abstract or epitome of Colonel Paterfon's Description of the Roads (referred to in Art. IX.) comprising the whole of the roads, and omitting the gentlemens' feats, and other matter of mere curiofity. It is printed in this portable fize at the fuggeftion of perfons in bufinefs who travel the country, (called riders) and for whose use it appears to be extremely well calculated. The reduction is principally effected by a fmaller type, and it is moft neatly and accurately printed.

ART. 52. A new Italian Grammar, in English and Italian, on a Plan different from any hitherto published; pointing out, in a clear concife Manner, the beft Rules and the easiest Method for the Attainment of that elegant and harmonious Language, equally calculated for the Use of Schools and private Inftruction. By Gaetano Ravizzotti, Teacher of Languages, Author of a Viridarium Latinum, or a Latin Collection of about Nine Hundred elegant Extracts, tranflated into Italian and French, and annexed to the Latin; a Collection of Spanish Poetry, to which is added, an ample Glossary, in English and in Spanish, for the Understanding of the most difficult Words and Phrafes; and of an Italian and English Introduction to this Grammar, &c. &c. Dedicated to the Right Hon. Lord Viscount Palmerflon. Third Edition, carefully corrected, and confiderably improved. Crown 8vo. 510 pp. 75. 64. Mawman, &c. &c. 1805.

Mr. Ravizzotti goes on improving his Italian Grammar, nor is it our business or intention to keep pace with the various editions of an approved work. This, however, is confiderably augmented, fince we noticed it before*. They who prefer studying Italian with a French grammar, will doubtless have recourfe to Mr. Zotti +; where English is thought more eligible as a vehicle of inftruction, the prefent author will be chofen. It appears to us that the lift of poetical licences, an aid very neceffary for the young ftudent in Italian, is here particularly copious and useful. The concluding part of this grammar, in the former editions, confifted of a fhort introduction to geography; but confidering that profeffed treatifes on that fubject are better adapted to the purpofes of inftruction, the author has now fubftituted, what he calls practical leffons, which commence at page 466. Thefe confift of dialogues on the fubjects of Italian grammar, and are particularly calculated to fuggeft to the teacher an advantageous method of inftructing his pupils. The book has much merit and utility.
