 DIODORUS SICULUS, OR SIKELIOTES. 
 
 THIS author was born at the town of Agyrium in Sicily, 
 whence his designation as the Sicilian. He was a contem- 
 porary of Augustus. He travelled extensively in Europe and 
 Asia, for the purpose if collecting the materials for a uni- 
 versal history. He hrsd a long time at Rome, engaged in 
 studies and investigations bearing reference to the same 
 great work. Having spent nearly thirty years, upon its prep- 
 aration and composition, he gave it the title of Bij3\io0TjKfj 
 'loropiKJj, Historical Library. The work was divided into 
 three sections, and comprised forty books. Large portions 
 of this valuable work are lost. The first five books, and 
 from the eleventh to the twentieth, remain entire. Of other 
 portions considerable fragments remain, and Excerpta or 
 selections given by Photius, or preserved in the Eclogae of 
 Constantine Porphyrogenitus. 
 
 The extracts here given are from the Fourth Book.

 it. The side of the mountain is pierced with caverns, which

 happened that Hercules was greatly admired ; for the one 
 (Eurystheus) he hated individually (or for personal reasons) 
 as his enemy ; but the other (Halcyone, sister of Eurystheus), 
 who was outraged, he thought to excel in virtue, pitying her ; 
 that is, although he hated Eurystheus as his enemy, yet he 
 did not extend his hatred to Halcyone, who had been violated 
 by Hermodus the Centaur, but, pitying her for her sufferings, 
 came to regard her as of superior virtue. The sentiment of 
 the passage reminds one of the often quoted " Pity is akin 
 to love." Another construction would be to connect eAeo>i> 
 with V7rc\dppav(v, and to consider orm/ceia as referring to the 
 placable character of Hercules : " He, in his generosity, 
 thought pitying her to be the better part " ; but this construc-

 THUCYDIDES. 
 
 THIS great historian was born in the Demos of Halinius 
 which belonged to the tribe Leontis. His father's name was 
 Olorus, and his mother's Hegesipyle. The year of his birth 
 was B. C. 471, and he lived till after the close of the Pelopon- 
 nesian war, the date of which is B. C. 404. He is said to have 
 studied the rhetorical art under Antiphon, the Rhamnusian. 
 At all events, his position and rank at Athens make it certain 
 that he received a cultivated education, and that he must have 
 enjoyed the instruction of the best masters. He appears to 
 have been wealthy, since he possessed, by marriage or in- 
 heritance, a valuable property in the gold mines of Thrace. 
 In B.C. 424, he commanded an Athenian squadron of seven 
 ships at Thasos, and being called upon by Eucles, the com- 
 mander in Amphipolis, to come to his assistance against 
 Brasidas, the Spartan general, he arrived at Eion, the mouth 
 of the Strymon, on the evening after the surrender of Am- 
 phipolis. This was regarded as a failure by the jealous 
 democracy of Athens, and Thucydides went into exile, per- 
 haps voluntarily, to avoid the punishment of death, which 
 was often inflicted on unsuccessful generals. His residence 
 during this period is uncertain, but he employed his time in 
 collecting the materials for his great history of the Pelopon- 
 nesian war. At the close of the war, or rather at the time 
 of the overthrow of the Thirty Tyrants, Thucydides appears 
 to have returned to Athens, but did not long survive his 
 restoration. Both the place and manner of his death are 
 uncertain, though the authorities are generally agreed that 
 he came to a violent end. In the time 'of Pausanias, his 
 tomb was still pointed out as near the Melitian Gate. 
 
 We copy the following just remarks on the works of 
 Thucydides from Smith's Dictionary, Vol. III. p. 1115, Art. 
 Thucydides. 
 
 " A history which treats of so many events, which took 
 place at remote spots, could only be written, in the time of 
 
W THUCYDIDES. 489 
 
 Thucydides, by a man who took great pains to ascertain facts 
 by personal inquiry. In modern times facts are made known 
 by printing as soon as they occur ; and the printed records 
 of the time, newspapers and the like, are often the only 
 evidence of many facts which become history. When we 
 know the careless way in which facts are now reported and 
 recorded by very incompetent persons, often upon very in- 
 different hearsay testimony, and compare with such records 
 the pains that Thucydides took to ascertain the chief events 
 of a war, with which he was contemporary, in which he took 
 a share, as a commander, the opportunities which his means 
 allowed, his great abilities, and serious, earnest character, it 
 is a fair conclusion that we have a more exact history of a 
 long, eventful period by Thucydides, than we have of any 
 period in modern history equally long and equally eventful. 
 We are deceived as to the value of modern historical evi- 
 dence, which depends on the eyesight of witnesses, by the 
 facility with which it is produced and distributed in print. 
 But when we come to examine the real authority for that 
 which is printed, we seldom find that the original witness of 
 an important transaction is a Thucydides ; still less seldom 
 do we find a man like him who has devoted seven-and-twenty 
 years to the critical enumeration of the events of as many 
 years. A large part of the facts in Thucydides were doubt- 
 less derived from the testimony of other eyewitnesses, and 
 even in some cases not directly from eyewitnesses ; and that 
 is also true of all modern -histories, even contemporary his- 
 tories ; but, again, how seldom have we a Thucydides to 
 weigh the value of testimony either direct or indirect (i. 22). 
 His whole work shows the most scrupulous care and diligence 
 in ascertaining facts ; his strict attention to chronology, and 
 the importance that he attaches to it, are additional proof of 
 his historical accuracy. His narrative is brief and concise ; 
 it generally contains bare facts expressed in the fewest pos- 
 sible words ; and when we consider what pains it must have 
 cost him to ascertain these facts, we admire the self-denial 
 
490 NOTES. 68 
 
 of a writer who is satisfied with giving facts in their naked 
 brevity, without ornament, without any parade of his personal 
 importance, and of the trouble that his matter cost him. A 
 single chapter must sometimes have represented the labor of 
 many days and weeks. Such a principle of historical com- 
 position is the evidence of a great and elevated mind. The 
 history of Thucydides only makes an octavo volume of 
 moderate size ; many a modern writer would have spun it 
 out to a dozen volumes, and so have spoiled it. A work that 
 is for all ages must contain much in little compass. 
 
 "*He seldom makes reflections in the course of his narra- 
 tive : occasionally he has a chapter of political and moral ob- 
 servations, animated by the keenest perception of the motives 
 of action, and the moral character of man. Many of his 
 speeches are political essays, or materials for them ; they are 
 not mere imaginations of his own for rhetorical effect ; they 
 contain the general sense of what was actually delivered, as 
 nearly as he could ascertain, and in many instances he had 
 good opportunities of knowing what was said, for he heard 
 some speeches delivered (i. 22). His opportunities, his 
 talents, his character, and his subject all combined to pro- 
 duce a work that stands alone, and in its kind has neither 
 equal nor rival. His pictures are sometimes striking and 
 tragic, an effect produced by severe simplicity and minute 
 particularity. Such is the description of the plague of Athens. 
 Such also is the incomparable history of the Athenian expe- 
 dition to Sicily, and its melancholy termination. 
 
 " A man who thinks profoundly will have a form of ex- 
 pression which is stamped with the character of his mind ; 
 and the style of Thucydides is accordingly concise, vigorous, 
 energetic. We feel that all the words were intended to have 
 a meaning, and have a meaning : none of them are idle. 
 Yet he is sometimes harsh and obscure ; and probably he 
 was so, even to his own countrymen. Some cf his sen- 
 tences are very involved, and the connection and dependence 
 of the parts are often difficult to seize. Cicero, undoubtedly 
 
53 THUCYDIDES. 491 
 
 a good Greek scholar, found him difficult (Orator, c. 9) : 
 
 he says that the speeches contain so many obscure and 
 impenetrable sentences as to be scarcely intelligible ; and 
 this, he adds, is a very great defect in the language of 
 political life." 
 
 The extract given in this place is from the First Book. 
 It contains a condensed and very able sketch of the primitive 
 condition of Hellas : its migratory inhabitants ; the sterility 
 of Attica, and the superior stability of its population in conse- 
 quence ; its character as a refuge for the unfortunate of other 
 parts of the country, &c.

 circumstance of its being free from dissensions by reason of

 construction for the infinitive. The thin soil of Attica is 
 often spoken of by the ancient writers, and its present aspect 
 furnishes a lively commentary upon their language. Never- 
 theless, with good cultivation and irrigation, the plain of 
 Athens might now be brought to yield excellent and profitable 
 harvests.

 example is that of Athens, which, on account of the greater 
 political stability prevailing there, 'made greater progress in 
 population. But the passage may be more exactly rendered, 
 And this is not the smallest proof (i. e. it is the greatest 
 proof) that Greece did not equally increase (that is, that 
 the cause of the inequality of increase was) by reason of 
 migrations to other quarters. The proof or example was 
 that of Athens, which did increase by reason of immigration 
 from other parts of the country.

 19. fpyov, business ; i. e. piracy or plunder. This de- 
 scription of the ancient manners of Hellas has had its counter- 
 part in that country in modern times. The Klephts of the 
 mountains and the pirates of the ^Egean, down to compara- 
 tively recent times, reproduced the primeval manners. Even 
 now, the old piratical spirit is ready to show itself whenever 
 an occasion offers.

 they are pirates, since they of whom they make the inquiry 
 do not disclaim the business, and those who may be concerned 
 to know make no reproach. Bothe and Owen, however, refer 
 ol TraAaioi to the persons spoken of by the poets, the ancients 
 of the poets, or in the poets. This appears to me not so 
 natural and Greek a construction as the partitive genitive. 
 Thucydides is speaking of the older poets, particularly 
 Homer, in whose Odyssey (III. v. 71) the very question 
 here alluded to is asked ; and he says the ancient poets,

 because these descriptions of a primeval condition of things 
 occur more especially in their compositions than in those 
 of later times ; and there is nothing beyond the boldness of

 poets as putting the question themselves, instead of repre- 
 senting the characters in the poems as doing this.

 wrapped round the left arm, then passed across the back and 
 under the right arm, from whence it was crossed over the

 Both this and the x l v were of woollen." Translate the 
 passage, And, again, the Lacedcemonians first used (or adopt-

 case of attack. This fortified hill was the Acropolis. Athens, 
 Corinth, Argos, and most of the cities in Greece, were built 
 in this manner; and most of them still attest, by the ruins 
 of ancient structures on their summits, the truth of the 
 language of Thucydides.

 expedition against Troy by his superior power, and not by 
 the circumstance that Tyndareus had bound the suitors of 
 Helen by an oath to bring her back if she should be borno

 tain of the age, and as such commanded in the Trojan war.

 detailed in the subsequent clauses. Blomfield and Owen

 speaking of the general character of Pelops ; he is describ- 
 ing the increasing influence of his family ; for he immediately 
 adds several particulars which contributed to the extension of 
 the power of the Pelopidse : Eurystheus committed Mycenae 
 and his kingdom to Atreus, and finally, the Mycenseans wish- 
 ing him for their king, both on account of their fear of the 
 Heracleida?, and because he was himself powerful and had 
 won the popular favor, Atreus came into possession of 
 Mycenae and the entire kingdom of Eurystheus, who did not 
 return ; and thus th^ Pelopidae became more powerful than 
 the Perseidae. I should therefore translate the words in

 HERODOTOS. 
 
 THIS delightful historian was a native of Halicarnassus, a 
 Doric colony in Caria. He was born B. C. 484, as we know 
 from the statement of Pamphila, quoted by Gellius, that he 
 was fifty-three years old at the beginning of the Pelopon- 
 nesian war. Little is known of his early life and educa- 
 tion ; but it is evident from his works, that he was familiar 
 with all the literature then existing in the Greek language, 
 and especially with the Homeric poems. He appears to 
 have emigrated early to Samos, and then to have returned 
 to Halicarnassus, where he assisted in emancipating his 
 native city from the tyranny of Lygdamis. After this, he 
 43 
 
f>06 NOTES. 65 
 
 withdrew from the conflict of factions which prevailed in 
 his native country, and passed the remainder of his life at 
 Thurii in Italy. He appears to have been at Athens B. C. 
 431, the year that the Peloponnesian war broke out. The 
 preparations he made for the composition of his great work 
 are thus described in the article upon Herodotos in Smith's 
 Dictionary. 
 
 " The most important part of these preparations consisted 
 in^his travels through Greece and foreign countries, for the 
 purpose of making himself acquainted with the world and 
 with man, and his customs arid manners. We may safely 
 believe that these preparations occupied the time from his 
 twentieth or twenty-fifth year until he settled at Rhegium. 
 His work, however, is not an account of travels, but the 
 mature fruit of his vast personal experience by land and by 
 sea, and of his unwearied inquiries which he made every- 
 where. He, in fact, nowhere mentions his travels and ad- 
 ventures, except for the purpose of establishing the truth ot 
 what he says ; and he is so free from the ordinary vanity of 
 travellers, that, instead of acting a prominent part in his work, 
 he very seldom appears at all in it. Hence it is impossible 
 for us to give anything like an accurate chronological succes- 
 sion of his travels. The minute account which Larcher has 
 made up is -little more than a fiction, and is devoid of all 
 foundation. In Greece Proper, and on the coasts of Asia 
 Minor, there is scarcely any place of importance with which 
 he is not perfectly familiar from his own observation, and 
 where he did not make inquiries respecting this or that par- 
 ticular point ; we may mention more especially the oracular 
 places, such as Dodona and Delphi. In many places of 
 Greece, such as Samos, Athens, Corinth, and Thebes, he 
 seems to have made a rather long stay. The places where 
 the great battles had been fought between the Greeks and 
 barbarians, as Marathon, Thermopylae, Salamis, and Plata3a3. 
 were well known to him, and on the whole route which 
 Xerxes and his army took on their march from the Helle- 
 
65 HERODOTOS. 507 
 
 spont to Athens, there was probably not a place which he had 
 not seen with his own eyes. He also visited most of the 
 Greek islands, not only in the J^gean, but even those in the 
 west of Greece, such as Zacynthus. As for his travels in 
 foreign countries, we know that he sailed through the Hel- 
 lespont, the Propontis, and crossed the Euxine in both 
 directions ; with the Palus Mreotis he was but imperfectly 
 acquainted, for he asserts that it is only a little smaller 
 than the Euxine. He further visited Thrace (ii. 103) and 
 Scythia (iv. 76, 81). The interior of Asia Minor, especially 
 Lydia, is well known to him, ajid so is also Phoenicia. He 
 visited Tyre for the special purpose of obtaining information 
 respecting the worship of Heracles ; previous to this he had 
 been in Egypt, for it was in Egypt that his curiosity respect- 
 ing Heracles had been excited. What Herodotos has done 
 for the history of Egypt surpasses in importance everything 
 that was written in ancient times upon that country, although 
 his account of it forms only an episode in his work. There 
 is no reason for supposing that he made himself acquainted 
 with the Egyptian language, which was, in fact, scarcely 
 necessary, on account of the numerous Greek settlers in 
 Egypt, as well as on account of that large class of persons 
 who made it their business to act as interpreters between the 
 Egyptians and Greeks ; and it appears that Herodotos was 
 accompanied by one of those interpreters. He travelled to 
 the south of Egypt as far as Elephantine, everywhere form- 
 ing connections with the priests, and gathering information 
 upon the early history of the country and its relations to 
 Greece. He saw with his own eyes all the wonders of 
 Egypt, and the accuracy of his observations and descriptions 
 still excites the astonishment of travellers in that country. 
 The time at which he visited Egypt may be determined with 
 tolerable accuracy. He was there shortly after the defeat 
 of Inarus by the Persian general, Megabyzus, which happened 
 in B. C. 456 ; for he saw the battle-field still covered with the 
 bones and skulls of the slain (iii. 12), so that his visit to 
 
508 NOTES. 63 
 
 Egypt may be ascribed to about B. C. 450. From Egypt he 
 appears to have made excursions to the east into Arabia, and 
 to the west into Libya, certainly as far as Gyrene, which is 
 well known to him (ii. 96). It is not impossible that he 
 may even have visited Carthage, at least he speaks of infor- 
 mation which he had received from Carthaginians (iv. 43, 
 195, 196), though it may be also that he conversed with 
 individual Carthaginians whom he met on his travels. From 
 Egypt he crossed over by sea to Tyre, and visited Palestine ; 
 that he saw the rivers Euphrates and Tigris and the city of 
 Babylon, is quite certain (i. 178, &c., 193). From thence 
 he seems to have travelled northward, for he saw the town of 
 Ecbatana, which reminded him of Athens (i. 98). There 
 can be little doubt that he visited Susa also, but we cannot 
 trace him further into the interior of Asia. His desire to 
 increase his knowledge by travelling does not appear to have 
 subsided even in his old age, for it would seem that during 
 his residence at Thurii he visited several of the Greek settle- 
 ments in Southern Italy and Sicily, though *his knowledge of 
 the West of Europe was very limited, for he strangely calls 
 Sardinia the greatest of all islands (i. 170, v. 106, vi. 2). 
 From what he had collected and seen during his travels, 
 Herodotos was led to form his peculiar views about the earth, 
 its form, climates, and inhabitants ; but for discussions on this 
 topic we must refer the reader to some of the works men- 
 tioned at the end of this article. Notwithstanding all the 
 wonders and charms of foreign countries, the beauties of his 
 own native land, and its free institutions, appear never to 
 have been effaced from his mind. 
 
 " A second source from which Herodotos- drew his infor- 
 mation was the literature of his country, especially the 
 poetical portion, for prose had not yet been cultivated very 
 extensively. With the poems of Homer and Hesiod he was 
 perfectly familiar, though he attributed less historical im- 
 portance to them than might have been expected. He placed 
 them about 400 years before his own time, and makes the 
 
65 HERODOTOS- 509 
 
 paradoxical assertion, that they had made the theogony of the 
 Greeks, which cannot mean anything else than that those 
 poets, more especially Hesiod, collected the numerous local 
 traditions about the gods, and arranged them in a certain 
 order and system, which afterwards became established in 
 Greece as national traditions. He was also acquainted with 
 the poetry of Alcaeus, Sappho, Simonides, ^Eschylus, and 
 Pindar. He further derived assistance from the Arimaspeia, 
 an epic poem of Aristeas, and from the works of the logog- 
 raphers who had preceded him, such as Hecatseus, though 
 he wrote with perfect independence of them, and occasion- 
 ally corrected mistakes which they had committed ; but his 
 main sources, after all, were his own investigations and ob- 
 servations." 
 
 On the character of the work, we quote from the same 
 article the following excellent observations. 
 
 " The whole work is pervaded by a profoundly religious 
 idea, which distinguishes Herodotos from all the other Greek 
 historians. .This idea is a strong belief in a divine power 
 existing apart and independent of man and nature, which 
 assigns to every being its sphere. This sphere no one is 
 allowed to transgress without disturbing the order which has 
 existed from the beginning, in the moral world no less than 
 in the physical ; and by disturbing this order man brings 
 about his own destruction. This divine power is, in the 
 opinion of Herodotos, the cause of all external events, though 
 he does not deny the free activity of man, or establish a 
 blind law of fate or necessity. The divine power with him 
 is rather the manifestation of eternal justice, which keeps all 
 things in a proper equilibrium, assigns to each being its path 
 and keeps it within its bounds. Where it punishes over- 
 weening haughtiness and insolence, it assumes the charactei 
 of. the divine Nemesis, and nowhere in history had Nemesis 
 overtaken and chastised the offender more obviously than in 
 the contest between Greece and Asia. When Herodotos 
 speaks of the envy of the gods, as he often does, we must 
 43* 
 
510 NOTES. 65 
 
 understand this divine Nemesis, who appears sooner or later to 
 pursue or destroy him who, in frivolous insolence and conceit, 
 raises himself above his proper sphere. Herodotos everywhere 
 shows the most profound reverence for everything which he 
 conceives as divine, and rarely ventures to express an opinion 
 on what he considers a sacred or religious mystery, though 
 now and then he cannot refrain from expressing a doubt in 
 regard to the correctness of the popular belief of his country- 
 men, generally owing to the influence which the Egyptian 
 priests had exercised on his mind ; but in general his good 
 sense and sagacity were too strong to allow him to be misled 
 by vulgar notions and errors. 
 
 " There are certain prejudices of which some of the best 
 modern critics are not quite free : one writer asserts that 
 Herodotos wrote to amuse his hearers, rather than with the 
 higher objects of an historian, such as Thucydides ; another 
 says that he was inordinately partial towards his own country- 
 men, without possessing a proper knowledge of and regard 
 for what had been accomplished by barbarians. To refute 
 such errors, it is only necessary to read his work with an 
 unbiased mind. That his work is more amusing than those 
 of other historians arises from the simple, unaffected, and 
 childlike mode of narration ; features which are peculiar, 
 more or less, to all early historians. Herodotos further saw 
 and acknowledged what was good and noble wherever it 
 appeared ; for he nowhere shows any hatred of the Persians, 
 nor of any among the Greeks : he praises and blames the 
 one as well as the other, whenever, in his judgment, they 
 deserve it. It would be vain indeed to deny that Herodotos 
 was to a certain extent credulous, and related things with- 
 out putting to himself the question as to whether they were 
 possible at all or not. His political knowledge, and his ac 
 quaintance with the laws of nature, were equally deficient 
 and owing to these deficiencies, he frequently does not rise 
 above the rank of a more story-teller, a title which Aristotle 
 (De Animal. Gener. iii. 5) bestows upon him. But, not- 
 
65 HERODOTOS. 511 
 
 withstanding all this, it is evident that he had formed a high 
 notion of the dignity of history ; and in order to realize his 
 idea, he exerted all his powers, and cheerfully went through 
 more difficult and laborious preparations than any other his- 
 torian either before or after him. The charge of his having 
 flattered the Athenians was brought against Herodotos by 
 some of the ancients, but is totally unfounded ; he only does 
 justice to the Athenians, by saying that they were the first who 
 had courage and patriotism enough to face the barbarian invad- 
 ers (vi. 112), and that thus they became the deliverers of all 
 Greece ; but he is very far from approving of their conduct 
 on every occasion ; and throughout his account of the Persian 
 war, he shows the most upright conduct, and the sincerest 
 love of truth. On the whole, in order to form a fair judg- 
 ment of the historical value of the work of Herodotos, we 
 must distinguish between those parts in which he speaks from 
 his own observation, or gives the results of his own investi- 
 gations, and those in which he merely repeats what he was 
 told by priests, interpreters, guides, and the like. In the 
 latter case he undoubtedly was often deceived ; but he never 
 intrudes such reports as anything more than they really are ; 
 and, under the influence of his natural good sense, he very 
 frequently cautions his readers by some such remark as "I 
 know this only from hearsay," or " I have been told so, but 
 do not believe it." The same caution should guide us in his 
 account of the early history of the Greeks, on which he 
 touches only in episodes, for he is generally satisfied with 
 some one tradition, without entering into any critical exami- 
 nation or comparison with other traditions, which he silently 
 rejects. But wherever he speaks from his own observation, 
 Herodotos is a real model of truthfulness and accuracy ; and 
 the more those countries of which he speaks have been ex- 
 plored by modern travellers, the more firmly has his authority 
 been established. There is scarcely a traveller that goes to 
 Egypt, the East, or Greece, that does not bring back a num- 
 ber of facts which place the accuracy of the accounts of 
 
512 NOTES. 65 
 
 Herodotos in the most brilliant light: many things which 
 used to be laughed at as impossible or paradoxical are found 
 to be strictly in accordance with truth. 
 
 " The dialect in which Herodotos wrote is the Ionic, inter- 
 mixed with epic or poetical expressions, and sometimes even 
 with Attic and Doric forms. This peculiarity of the language 
 called forth a number of lexicographical works of learned 
 grammarians, all of which are lost, with the exception of a 
 few remnants in the Homeric glosses (Ae'fts). The excel- 
 lences of his style do not consist in any artistic or melodious 
 structure of his sentences, but in the antique and epic color- 
 ing, the transparent clearness, the lively flow of his narrative, 
 the natural and unaffected gracefulness, and the occasional 
 signs of carelessness. There is perhaps no work in the 
 whole range of ancient literature which so closely resembles 
 a familiar and homely oral narration as that of Herodotos. 
 Its reader cannot help feeling as though he was listening to 
 an old man, who, from the inexhaustible stores of his knowl- 
 edge and experience, tells his stories with that single-hearted 
 simplicity and naivete which are the marks and indications 
 of a truthful spirit. l That which charms the reader of 
 Herodotos,' says Dahlmann, 4 is that childlike simplicity of 
 heart which is ever the companion of an incorruptible love 
 of truth, and that happy and winning style which cannot be 
 attained by any art or pathetic excitement, and is found only 
 where manners are true to nature ; for while other pleasing 
 discourses of men roll along like torrents, and noisily hurry 
 through their short existence, the silver stream of his words 
 flows on without concern, sure of its immortal source, every- 
 where pure and transparent, whether it be shallow or deep t 
 and the fear of ridicule which sways the whole world affects 
 not the sublime simplicity of his mind.' ' 
 
 It is unknown at what age Herodotos died. The latest 
 event alluded to in his history belongs to the year B. C. 408, 
 when he was seventy-seven years old ; and it is probable that 
 he died at Thurii, as Suidas states. 
 
65 HERODOTOS. 513 
 
 The following extracts contain the principal passages in 
 his account of the wars of the Greeks and Persians. 
 
 Herodotos, though a Dorian by birth, selected the Ionic 
 dialect as a fitting language for his history. This dialect, as 
 its name imports, was the native speech of the Ionian race, 
 who inhabited the northern part of Peloponnesus, Attica, 
 many of the islands in the ^Egean Sea, as the Cyclades, 
 Chios, Samos, and many of the cities along the western 
 coast of Asia Minor, lying between ^Eolia on the north and 
 Doris on the south. In the historical times Athens was 
 generally recognized as the head of the Ionian states, and 
 exercised the hegemony, a directorship or qualified sover- 
 eignty, over them. The earliest poetical development of 
 the Ionic dialect took place in the islands and cities of Asi- 
 atic Ionia ; and the Homeric poems became at once the 
 noblest monument of the genius of the race, and the in- 
 approachable model for epic poetry afterwards. The Hesiodic 
 poems are composed in the same form of language. With 
 some modifications, the Ionic is the dialect of the elegiac poets, 
 who followed the epic minstrels. In prose, no writer in the 
 Ionic approaches Herodotos ; but there was an extensive 
 prose literature in this dialect, a great part of which has been 
 lost. The Attic dialect is founded on the Ionic, but is better 
 suited than its prototype to the general purposes of literature, 
 especially philosophy, history, and political eloquence. The 
 peculiarities of the Ionic dialect are pointed out in the 
 grammars of Kriiger, Buttmann, Sophocles, and others ; and 
 a very convenient synoptical view is presented, in a series of 
 tables, by Professor Johnson, in his excellent edition of the 
 first book of Herodotos, pp. 64-75, which see.

 Bahr remarks, in substance, that the Athenians, though pas- 
 sionately fond of dramatic entertainments, yet required the 
 tragic poet to observe a certain moderation in exciting the 
 affections and feelings ; and considered him worthy of pun- 
 ishment, if he transgressed the limits, especially on a subject 
 which was not to the honor of the Athenian people.

 the dramatic literature of Athens was produced under the 
 form of competition for prizes, determined after the repre-

 Marathon is about six miles from north to south, and of vary- 
 ing width, having the eastern declivities of Pentelicus on the 
 west and the sea on the east. It is accessible from Athens 
 by three ways, one leading over a spur of Pentelicus by 
 Vrana ; another by Marathona (the name of the modern vil- 
 lage) ; and a third, a more level and an easier route, from 
 the southern end of the plain, through the Mesogsea. 
 
 9. o-TpaTrjyol Se'/ca. Among the boards annually elected, 
 one of the most important was that of the ten generals, one 
 from each of the ten tribes. They appear originally to have 
 been clothed with equal power, and in military expeditions 
 to have taken command of the army successively. The 
 inconveniences of this arrangement could not fail to make 
 themselves felt; and accordingly we find, in later periods, 
 that one of the body acted as commander of the forces, and 
 the others were employed in various administrative functions 
 at home.

 Aristophanes, they are represented as coming down from 
 Parnes (almost due north from the theatre, and in sight look- 
 ing from the eastern side of it and along the eastern end of 
 the Acropolis) dta T>V KoiXcov, through the hollows. It 
 seems likely, from the form of the expression, as indicating a 
 region well known by that descriptive ep'ithet, that the deme 
 of Coele must have been in that direction. Smith, however, 
 in his Geographical Dictionary, places it in the valley of the 
 Ilissus, south of the city. I cannot help thinking, from an 
 inspection of the region, and from this passage in Aristopha- 
 nes, that it lay somewhere in that extensive valley or hollow, 
 between the city and Mount Parnes, through which the Ce- 
 phissus flows, and that the 686s referred to by Herodotos was, 
 not one of the streets of the city, but a road running through 
 the valley, east and west, outside the walls on the north, 
 perhaps the road which Cicero took, when, before entering 
 the city, he turned aside to visit the groves of Plato's Acad- 
 emy. At present there are several footways which traverse 
 the hollow in the same direction.

 lighted torches, the object being to carry them unextin-

 an equal vote with the generals. The polemarch was the 
 third of the nine annual archons ; and as beans were used in 
 drawing the lots for these offices, the words *ua/za> \axfiv be- 
 came a common expression for to be appointed to one of 
 them. The polemarch appears to have been originally a

 minister of war, and, as is asserted here, to have had a vote 
 with the generals in active service. This is the last time, so 
 far as we know, tnat this officer took the field ; his civil 
 functions at Athens were to superintend the legal questions 
 growing up among foreigners, &c., and they appear to have 
 withdrawn him from the duties of a military commander.

 still known by the name of Mesogaea. According to the 
 usually received explanations of the order of battle, the

 Athenian forces were placed along the heights above the 
 modern Vrana ; but an inspection of the features of the 
 place would show that this position of the forces would have 
 left undefended the only route to Athens accessible to a 
 large body of troops, while defending the paths over the 
 mountains which, then as now, were too rough and steep for 
 an army to cross. Mr. George Finlay, the historian, has 
 written upon this subject with his usual knowledge and

 ity and a security for his fleets in passing to and fro. It 
 is a rather curious fact, that this statement with regard to 
 the canal is cited by the Roman satirist Juvenal as a proof 
 of the lying character of the Greeks. It proves, however, to 
 be only an evidence of Roman ignorance ; for the traces of 
 the canal exist to this day, and have been noticed by many 
 travellers. It would not be a very serious undertaking to 
 clear away the rubbish, and reopen the canal for modern 
 navigation.

 The mode of construction was the following. The first 
 bridge, that towards the Euxine Sea, rested on three hundred 
 and sixty penteconters and triremes ; and the other, that 
 towards the ^Egean, on three hundred and fourteen. Both 
 lines were arranged so as to head towards the Propontis ; 
 and this is the meaning of eVt/ca/jo-tar, not oblique, as it is 
 generally explained. They all lay in the current of the 
 Hellespont, Kara poo?, in order to tighten the strain of the 
 cordage. Blakesley justly remarks : " It is impossible that 
 any person who had ever constructed a pontoon bridge 
 should think of mooring vessels, when stability was an ob- 
 ject, in nny other position than with their heads or sterns in 
 
115 HERODOTOS 535 
 
 the direction of the current ; and it is such an erroneous 
 assumption which has caused so much difficulty in the un- 
 derstanding of this passage." So far so good ; but the com- 
 mentator goes on to say, that, " owing to the shape of the 
 channel, the set of the current is not in the line of the water, 
 but oblique from one shore to the other. A vessel therefore 
 laid, as it must be, if it is not soon to be carried away, in the 
 line of the current, would be at an angle to the apparent line 
 of the shore of the Propontis ; it would seem as if not going 
 direct up the channel." This is an entire misapprehension. 
 At the place where the bridge was laid, the shore of the Pro- 
 pontis (Herodotos says nothing about the Propontis) is not vis- 
 ible at all, being twenty or thirty miles off, and therefore there 
 can be no reference to the apparent line of the shore of the 
 Propontis. The Hellespont flows out of the Propontis in a 
 line the general direction of which, is southwest; the current 
 is from two to four miles an hour, its direction ranging more 
 or less from the line of the channel, according to the physical 
 formation of the land. But this variation between the line 
 of the current and the line of the channel was not a matter 
 to excite any particular attention. The general direction of 
 the current, flowing at the rate above mentioned, is all that 
 Herodotos alludes to. To one who has sailed up the Hel- 
 lespont and examined its shores, the description of Herodotos 
 is plain enough. Blakesley's mistake and confusion arise 
 from misapprehending the meaning of eVtKapo-iar, heading 
 towards, and from not remembering the distance of the shore 
 of the Propontis from the site of the bridge. The ships were 
 all heading up stream, towards the Propontis ; but nothing is 
 said about their forming an angle with a line twenty or thirty 
 miles distant, or with any line at all. The ships would have 
 the appearance of being bound for the Euxine Sea ; and this 
 is alt that Herodotos means to say. 
 
 Having been fastened together, anchors were then cast from 
 the northern bridge, on the side of the Pontus, and from the 
 southern, on the side towards the west and the ^Egean, for 
 
536 NOTES. 115 
 
 security against the winds. In three places, a narrow pas- 
 sage was left, that small boats might pass into and out of the 
 Pontus. This having been done, the cordage two cables 
 of white flax and four of papyrus to each bridge were 
 stretched from shore to shore, and tightened by the wooden 
 capstans. The cables were of the same thickness and qual- 
 ity, but the linen ones were heavier in proportion. Trunks of 
 trees were then sawed as long as the width of the vessels, 
 and laid over the cordage and secured there. Over these 
 fascines were laid ; and over the fascines earth was spread 
 and trodden hard, and a railing was built on each side, that 
 the beasts of burden might not be frightened by looking over 
 into the water. 
 
 In the Life and Travels of Herodotos, by I. T. Wheeler, 
 there is a description of the building of the bridges, generally 
 correct, but erroneous in one or two particulars. It is said 
 (Vol. I. pp. 368, 369) : " Each bridge now consisted of a 
 line of ships moored from side to side across the strait, having 
 their sterns towards the Euxine and their prows towards the 
 
 JEgean Both bridges ran somewhat obliquely across 
 
 the channel, in order that the current might keep up the 
 tension of the cables ; but the bridge nearest the uEgean ran 
 in a much more slanting direction than the other, because, 
 owing to the shape of the channel in that part, the set of the 
 current is not in the line of water, but oblique from one 
 shore to the other." As to the first assertion, that the sterns 
 of the ships were towards the Euxine and the prows to- 
 wards the ^Egean, it is in direct contradiction to Herodotos, 
 and would make a very absurd arrangement. Common 
 sense would dictate to the builders the necessity of placing 
 against the current the end which would present the smallest 
 resisting surface, i. e. the prow ; and the rudder would cause 
 no little embarrassment, if the stern were against the current ; 
 while, in the direction of the current, it would be useful in 
 steadying the vessel. There is no authority for the state- 
 ments in the second sentence, that the bridges ran obliquely 
 
116 HERODOTOS. 5157 
 
 across the channel, and that the bridge nearest the 
 ran more obliquely than the other. In the second volume of 
 the Travels in Albania by Lord Broughton (Hobhouse), pp. 
 192, 193, new edition, the points from which the bridges ex- 
 tended on both sides are well determined. " Sestos," says the 
 well-informed traveller, " was not opposite to the Asiatic 
 town, nor was the Hellespont in this place called the Straits 
 of Sestos and Abydos, but the Straits of Abydos. Sestos was 
 so much nearer the Propontis than the other town, that the 
 ports of "the two places were thirty stadia, more than three 
 miles and a half, from each other ...... The Thracian side 
 
 of the strait, immediately opposite to Nagara, is a strip of 
 stony shore projecting from between two high cliffs ; and to 
 this spot, it seems, the European extremity of Xerxes' bridges 
 must have been applied ; for the height of the neighboring 
 cliffs would have prevented the Persian monarch from ad- 
 justing them to any other position. There is certainly some 
 ground to believe this to have been the exact point of the 
 shore, called from that circumstance Apobathra ; since there 
 is, within any probable distance, no other flat land on the 
 Thracian side, except at the bottom of deep bays, the choice 
 of which would have doubled the width of the passage ...... 
 
 The bridges were on the Propontic side of Abydos, but on 
 the opposite quarter of Sestos ; that is to say, they were 
 on the coasts between the two cities, but nearer to the first 
 than to the last ; and supposing the few ruins before men- 
 tioned, about a mile from Nagara, to belong to Abydos, that 
 point answers sufficiently to the spot on the Asiatic coast to 
 which the pontoons were affixed."

 in the spring of fc. c. 481, visible in Asia Minor, and another 
 in the autumn of B. c. 479, whereas the expedition of Xerxes 
 belongs to B. c. 480. He offers no solution of the difficulty, 
 but supposes Herodotos to have related the occurrence as he 
 heard it ; and as to the discrepancy of a year, he remarks 
 that much greater discrepancies are now found in the history 
 of transactions related with perfect good faith. Blakesley 
 supposes that later traditions connected the eclipse of B. c. 
 481 with the transit of Xerxes in 480, since it is quite impos- 
 sible to reconcile the passage of the army in the year 481 
 with the general chronology of the history of Herodotos. 
 Clinton takes a somewhat different view. It does not seem 
 very probable that, in the comparatively short time between 
 the march of the Persians and the investigations of Herodo- 
 tos, a fictitious story of the consultation of the Magi, and their 
 interpretation of the eclipse in direct application to the inva- 
 sion of Greece, could have taken the place of the true history. 
 It seems more likely that some other mistake should have 
 been made, and the connection between the phenomenon, 
 whatever it was, and the march, may be preserved. In the 
 Transactions of the Royal Society of London for 1853, pp. 
 179 - 200, there is a paper by Professor Airy, Astronomer 
 Royal, on " The Eclipses of Agathocles, Thales, and Xerxes." 
 He examines this passage in Herodotos, and then compares 
 the elements of the eclipse which occurred in the morning 
 of the 19th of April, B. c. 481 ; " the only solar eclipse," 
 he justly remarks, " which it is worth while even to examine." 
 According to his computation, " it will be found that there 
 could not be even a partial eclipse for Sardes; the whole 
 penumbra having entered completely upon the earth before 
 sunrise at Sardes." This eclipse, then, must be set wholly 
 out of the question. I quote part of a paragraph from the 
 paper of Mr. Airy, who endeavors to show the possibility of 
 referring the account to some other phenomenon. " First, I 
 cannot doubt that there was something unusual and alarm- 
 ing, as the solemn consultation of the Magi by Xerxes seems 
 
>16 HERODOTOS 539 
 
 to have been a matter of notoriety. Secondly, Hciodotos 
 repeatedly expresses himself doubtful in matters of detail 
 which occurred during the movements of Xerxes on the 
 - eastern side of the ./Egean Sea. Thirdly, the notion that the 
 Sun was the peculiar divinity of the Greeks, and the Moon 
 that of the Persians, is entirely opposed to all that we know 
 of the religious ideas of the Persians generally, and of Xerxes 
 in particular. For instance, when Xerxes was preparing to 
 cross the Hellespont, he waited for the rising of the sun, and 
 then addressed to the sun his prayers for success. The 
 Greeks, however, appear to have attached great impor- 
 tance to the appearance of the moon, as is evident from their 
 terror, and its calamitous consequences, at the lunar eclipse 
 in the Syracusan war (Thucydides, Lib. VII.). The reply of 
 the Magi, therefore, which, as given by Herodotos, is on the 
 face of it absurd, would seem to be much more plausible if 
 we suppose that the information received by Herodotos was 
 wrong in one particular, and that the observation in question 
 was an eclipse of the moon instead of the sun." 
 
 The learned astronomer then proceeds to show that there 
 was an eclipse of the moon on the morning of the 14th of 
 March, B. c. 479, which corresponds sufficiently to the cir- 
 cumstances of the history. He gives the elements of this 
 lunar eclipse, and the result is that it was " a total eclipse, 
 nearly central, and it is probable that the moon dis- 
 appeared completely, and was lost for nearly two hours." 
 
 This eclipse, Mr. Airy thinks, is the one on which the 
 story in Herodotos is founded. If so, it would make the sub- 
 sequent events in the Persian war a year later than the dates 
 commonly assigned to them. 
 
 It appears to me that the explanation of Mr. Airy is at * 
 Isast probable. The time of the year March in which 
 the eclipse occurred, is the season in which Xerxes would 
 naturally have set out on his campaign. April, the month 
 of the solar eclipse of 481, is a little too late ; and if the cal- 
 culations of Mr. Airy are correct, it could not by any possi- 
 bility have been this eclipse, on other grounds. 
 
540 NOTES. Ill 
 
 The phenomenon of a total eclipse of the moon, early in 
 the morning, just as the army were bestirring themselves and 
 getting ready to set out, would be alarming and ominous in 
 the highest degree, quite as much so, perhaps, as an 
 eclipse of the sun ; and the Magi would much more natu- 
 rally have interpreted an eclipse of the moon as portending 
 the desolation of the cities of their enemies, than an eclipse 
 of the sun, the luminary which they worshipped in an 
 especial manner. An eclipse of the sun would more nat- 
 urally be considered as portending calamity to his own wor- 
 shippers. But either an eclipse of the sun or one of the 
 moon would be a formidable event to those who knew not 
 the causes of these astronomical phenomena.

 meaning of the oracle is a warning to the Athenians to leave

 He will destroy other towers, and not alone those of Athens. 
 He will give to wasting fire many other temples of the im- 
 mortals, which now stand flowing with sweat and shaking 
 with fear. Black blood has been poured down over the top- 
 most roofs, foreseeing the necessities of evil. But go forth 
 from the temple, and open your mind to evils.

 It will be observed that in this response of the Pythoness 
 the words of command pass from plural to singular, and 
 then from dual to plural. Such transitions are not unknown 
 elsewhere ; but here perhaps they may be intended as ex- 
 pressions of the agitated state of her mind. The Syrian 
 chariot is the Asiatic chariot ; i. e. the Persian. The tem- 
 ples flowing with sweat, and black blood pouring down over 
 the roofs, are in accordance with a superstition, that the 
 statues and temples of the gods foreboded the approach of 
 impending danger, by dripping with perspiration and blood. 
 The messengers are ordered to open or spread their minds 
 to the misfortunes approaching their country. This has been 
 variously explained. Some interpret, See how to meet the 
 evils that threaten; apply your mind to them. Others, Op- 
 pose strength of mind to the evils that threaten ; arm your- 
 selves with courage. I am inclined to think that the words

 Page 145. The description here of the region neighbor- 
 ing Thermopylae, notwithstanding some changes wrought 
 upon it in the course of so many centuries, is still very cor- 
 rect. The valley at the head of the Maliac Gulf is consid- 
 erably enlarged by the deposits of the Spercheios and Dyras, 
 and by materials washed down from the mountains by the 
 rains, and the beds of the Spercheios and Asopos have been 
 changed. Yet the general features of the scenery may be 
 clearly made out, the changes not having been by any means 
 so great as travellers usually assert. The lines and limits of 
 the pass itself are distinctly marked, excepting where the 
 deposit of the springs has raised the surface by covering the 
 former ground with a thick crust ; and in the rainy season, 
 which converts the formed land into a reedy marsh, covered 
 with water, in some places several feet deep, it would be 
 quite as difficult for an army to force its way through, against 
 a small opposing body, as in the time of the Persian invasion. 
 The mountains on the west of the pass are lofty, precipitous 
 and savagely picturesque ; and the whole scene, independent 
 
145 HERODOTOS. 517 
 
 of its historical associations, is one of the grandest in Greece 
 The hot springs still gush from the mountain-side; and as 
 the traveller approaches the spot he sees a cloud of vapor, 
 like steam, rising from the mill, whose wheel the combined 
 waters of the springs, turned into an artificial channel down 
 the sloping ground, are made to carry. The mill works 
 night and day, and grinds the corn of five-and-twenty vil- 
 lages. The upper room, rudely built like the tower of a 
 feudal castle, commands the approaches from all directions, 
 and the proprietor has furnished it with guns, pistols, and 
 sabres, for defence against the robbers, who, as in ancient 
 times, find themselves secure among the rocks of (Eta. It 
 was at a small distance namely, in the valley of the Sper- 
 cheios that one of the most famous actions in the Greek 
 Revolution took place, the battle between Mechmet-Pacha 
 and Diakos. The latter was defeated, taken prisoner, carried 
 to Zeitoun (Lamia), and there put to death, with the fero- 
 cious cruelty which marked the conduct of the Turks. The 
 name, memory, and tragical fate of this early victim in the 
 cause of liberty and national independence will be for ever 
 associated, in equal honor, with the glories of Leonidas. 
 Byron sang 
 
 " Of the Three Hundred grant but three 
 To make a new Thermopylae." 
 
 This prayer was almost literally fulfilled by Diakos and two 
 of his officers, Kalyvas and Bakoiannes, who, left with only 
 a handful of soldiers, fought with a bravery worthy of the 
 place and its heroic memories. The history of this glorious 
 event in the modern annals of Greece is given, with great 
 vivacity and classical power, in the second volume of the 
 History of the Greek Revolution by Mr. Tricoupes. The 
 passage is inserted in the Selections from Modern Greek 
 Writers, by the present Editor (pp. 48-58), and well de- 
 serves to be compared with the celebrated narrative of He- 
 rodotos.

 out about, lamplight for the camp. 25. fcrrrcft/dcicro, it had 
 been proved. On the route of Hydarnes, Colonel Leake has 
 the following remarks: " In regard to the route of Hydarnes 
 from the plain of Trachis, over Mount Callidromos, otherwise 
 named Anopsea, to Alpeni, there can be little doubt, from 
 the words of Herodotos, that it began by ascending the ra- 
 vine of the Asopos, which, having a direction to the east- 
 ward, and being perfectly concealed, was thus well adapted 
 to the object of the movement of Hydarnes. After following 
 the ravine for some distance, a rugged and circuitous ascent 
 would conduct him to Dhamasta, from whence the route was 
 comparatively easy to Dhrakospilia, a little beyond which was 
 probably the position of the Phocians. After engaging with 
 them until they retreated to the neighboring summit of the 
 mountain now called Sarimata, he descended by the torrent, 
 which I crossed at 2.30, and, turning westward on arriving 
 at the modern route from Pundonitza (Budonitza) to Ther- 
 mopylae, reached, without any further difficulty, the position 
 of Alpeni, and the eastern end of the pass. As he quitted 
 the camp of Xerxes in the dusk of the evening, and arrived 
 at the Phocian position at daybreak, he was about eight hours 
 on his march, the transaction having taken place in the be- 
 ginning of August. Even if the road had been as good as the 
 ground could possibly admit, the distance could not have been 
 less than twelve miles. On considering, therefore, the steep- 
 ness of the ascent from the vale of the Asopos, the varied 
 surface of the mountain in the upper region, the necessary 
 halts and the other delays incidental to the march of ten 
 thousand men by such a path as the historian has described, 
 partly through a thick forest and in the night, the time does 
 not seem too much in proportion to the distance to be per- 
 formed. The descent was not much less than the ascent in 
 actual distance, but was very different in other respects, be- 
 ing little encumbered with rugged ground or forests ; and 
 the march was performed by day. These causes com- 
 bined would produce a great dimir ution in time ; so that

 Hydarnes probably was not more than five hours in the de 
 scent, including the delay occasioned by the skirmish with 
 the Phocians, and may have arrived at Alpeni about nine 
 
 o'clock in the forerfoon The stillness of the dawn, 
 
 which saved the Phocians from being surprised, is very char- 
 aracteristic of the climate of Greece in the season when the 
 occurrence took place, and, like many other trifling circum- 
 stances occurring in the history of the Persian invasion, is an 
 interesting proof of the accuracy and veracity of the histo- 
 rian." Northern Greece, Vol. II. pp. 53, 55.

 On the subject of this wreck, and the peculiarities of the 
 region where it occurred, the commentators generally have 
 not been well informed. Bahr thinks the Ipni (Ovens) 
 were rocks running out into the sea, on the shore of Sepias. 
 I. Talboys Wheeler, in his excellent Geography of Herodotos, 
 p. 87, says : " The Ovens were probably concealed crags, or 
 breakers." One is at a loss to understand why the project- 
 ing rocks of Bahr, or the concealed breakers of Wheeler, 
 should have been called the Ovens. My colleague, Mr. E. 
 A. Sophocles, who is personally familiar with the whole of 
 that region, and who examined the coast of Pelion a few years 
 ago, with special reference to this passage, has furnished 
 me with the following valuable note, which settles every 
 point of the geography of the shipwreck in the most satisfac- 
 tory manner. 
 
 "nXtao-t'St, toi), TO, Pliasidhi, is the modern name ot 
 the highest peak of Mount Pelion. Seafaring peoplo gener- 
 ally call it the mountain of Zaghora (TO powb Tfjs Zayopas), 
 because it rises above the town of Zaghora. As to form, the 
 
108 HERODOTOS. 553 
 
 word has the appearance of a double diminutive of UrjXiov ; 
 thus, II^Xioi', JlrjXiuo-iov (like Kopdo-iov), IIr)\ia(ri8iov (like icopa- 
 rr/Siop), llqXtao-iSt, and by syncope IlXiao-iSt, trisyllabic. 
 
 " The extreme limits of the eastern coast of Pelion, l the 
 harborless shore of PelionJ as Euripides aptly calls it (Ale. 
 595, 596), are the town of Mindzela or Mindzeles (fj M/ro-e 
 Xa, plural 17 Mti/ro-eXts) , on the northwest, and Cape Nekhori 
 (rov Ne^wptoC 6 n/3os), on the southeast. The villages situated 
 on this side of the mountain are arranged as follows : Mind- 
 zela or Mindzeles, Zaghord (fj Zayo/>a), Makria-rukhi (rj 
 MaKpfia-pdxi) ) Anilio (TO 'Av^Xio), Kisos (6 Kioxro?), Muresi 
 (fj Mou/jeo-q) , Tsangarddha (fj To-ayyapaSa), Propan (TO Upo- 
 srai/), and Neckhori (TO Ne^pO* 
 
 " Aafi/t, toO, TO, Laini, the most important headland in 
 this region, forms part of the township of Zaghora. It is 
 called also Cape Pori (TOV Hopiov 6 Ka/3os), from IIop/, a ward 
 of Zaghora not far from the extremity of the cape. 
 
 "Xopevroff, oO, o, Khoreplitos, a sandy beach near 
 Lami, is the landing-place of Zaghora. 
 
 " M TT a v i a K a j, a, 6, Baniakas, in three syllables, a head- 
 land partly in Anilio and partly in Kissos. It may be said to 
 separate Khoreftos from the following.

 a sandy beach belonging to Kisos. 
 
 "Tapovxapii n s , >?, TamukJiari, a creek adjoining 
 Saint John's beach, is the landing-place of Muresi and Tsan- 
 garadha, but it lies within the jurisdiction of the former place. 
 The remnant of a stone wall is all that is left of what was 
 once the fort of Tamukhari (TO /caorpo TTJS Tapovxaprji) . 
 
 "nay aye' a ToO na7ra5a/3t8, 17, a cavernous place, 
 not unlike two huge ovens, the one above the other. The 
 upper cave, which is very seldom reached by the waves of 
 the sea below, contains a small church of the Virgin, built 
 during the early part of the seventeenth century, by one 
 Dhabhidh (David), a priest. 
 
 " * o v p v o s, o v, 6, PhurnoS) that is, the Oven, a cave

 having the form of a large oven, is to be seen on the south 
 side of Karabhostasid (f) Ka/>a/3oo-ra<na) , a creek of Tsanga- 
 radha. It is only a few rods from the shore. 
 
 " The storm, which destroyed a considerable part of the 
 Persian armament, occurred on the coast of Pelion (Her. 8. 
 8. 12) ; of course between Mindzela and Cape Nekhori. 
 
 " Before it began to rage, the vessels occupied the beach 
 (rov alyia\6v) which lay between the rocky shores (OKTT)) of 
 Sepias and the city Kasthanaia or Kastanaia (Id. 7. 183; 
 Strab. 9. 22, p. C. 443). Now as the only places on this 
 coast where a considerable number of vessels can be drawn 
 on shore are Khorephtos, in Zaghora, and Saint John's beach, 
 in Kisos, we are authorized in inferring that Sepias is Laini, 
 and Kasthanaia, Tamukhari. 
 
 " The 'limn, 01, the Ovens, so called, were in Pelion (Her. 
 7. 188. Upos 'itrvovs KoXfOfjifvovs TOVS ev TO> Eh/Ato)). Strabo 
 calls it *l7n>ovj, ovvros (analogous to TpaTrtfovs, Kfpao-ovs, 'OTTOVJ), 
 and adds that it is a rugged place (rfaov rpaxvv), a designa- 
 tion perfectly applicable to the formidable cliffs of Tsanga- 
 radha, and especially to Jlavayla TOV Ilaira&apid. 
 
 " The statement of Herodotus (7. 188), that some of the 
 vessels were wrecked at Meliboea, a city referred to the 
 shores between Ossa and Pelion, is to be explained by sup- 
 posing that a portion of the fleet cast anchor at Mindzela, or 
 at some other place northwest of Laini, before the storm be- 
 gan. For it is admitted by all those who know anything 
 about this part of Magnesia, that a sailing vessel, caught 
 within the imaginary line joining Lafni and Cape Nekhori 
 during a violent northeasterly gale (6 Tpalos, TO rpaio\tfiavTo), 
 will inevitably be dashed to pieces against the rocks of Tsan- 
 garadha. And as to doubling Laini under these circum- 
 stances, it is regarded as an absolute impossibility. 
 
 " KtKvvTjtios, ij, Cicynethus, an islet in the Pagasetic 
 Gulf, now called TO. liaXqa TpUepa or Tpiufprj, Old Trikera or 
 Trikeri. 
 
 " The only spot in Magnesia answering to the description 
 
162 HERODOTOS. 555 
 
 of 'A<e'rut is the landing-place of Trikera or Trikeri (ra Tpi- 
 or TptKfprj).

 " A Magnesian standing on the eastern side of Pelion would 
 name the islands opposite in the following order : 2Kia&>, 2*o- 
 weXo, Atpo/ua, Kupa Zlavayta, FvoCpa. The island SKV/JO is seen 
 behind them.

 *' 2 K t a ^ o, TO, SkiaihO) TO SKOTT^XO, Skopelo^ and ^ 
 SKU/JO, Skzro, are the most important ; but Skopelo stands 
 at the head of them all. 
 
 "Atdpo/Ata, T a, Lidhr6mia, a corruption of c HXio8po/ua, 
 /.Ae SMTI'S course, was probably so named by the Magnesians, 
 from the fact that, with respect to them, it is in the sun's 
 eastern amplitude. 
 
 " K u p a ttavayia, 17, the All-holy Lady, an uninhabited 
 island near Lidhrot^ia. It has a harbor with a narrow en- 
 trance. 
 
 "Tvovpa, ra, Ghiura, dissyllabic, is a modification of 
 Tvapot; but the island must not be confounded with the 
 southern Tvovpa, the classical 17 Tvapos, one of the Cyclades. 
 
 " The determination of the classical jj ^niaBos, and 4 Sxvpos, 
 presents no difficulty whatever. 
 
 u The ancient 17 neTrdpqtios, Peparethos, can be no other 
 than the modern Skopelo. First, because Scymnus, Strabo, 
 and Livy name it in juxtaposition with Skiathos. Even 
 Pliny, in his confused arrangement, places it near Sciathos. 
 
 " Secondly, the Peparethian wine ranked with the Pram- 
 nian, Chian, and Thasian, which sufficiently proves its ex- 
 cellent quality. The wine of Skopelo is celebrated through- 
 out the .Egean; l Peparethos the producer offne grapes 
 fvftoTpw Ucirdpj&ov),' i says Sophocles ; l the wine of

 AaTroVrey), a native of Skopelo, and the author of a metrical 
 composition in which all the choice things in the world 
 (fK\cKTa Trpayfjiara) are named. We need not remark here, 
 that, in this curious effusion, t the wine of Skopelo' stands 
 at the head of good things. 
 
 " Thirdly, because it is mentioned in history oftener than 
 any other island belonging to this group ; a fact implying 
 prominence. And it has already been stated that Skopelo 
 takes the lead now. (Hym. Apoll. 32; Soph. Phil. 548, 
 549 ; Arist. apud Athen. 1, p. 29 a ; Dem. p. 935. 7 ; Bar- 
 pocration in v. IleTrapqtfo? ; Heraclides, Polit. 13; Polyb. 10. 
 43; Scymnus, 79, 581; Strab. 9. 16, p. C. 436; Ovid.. 
 Met. 7. 470; Liv. 31.28; Schol. ad Apoll. Arg. 1. 581; 
 Plin. 4. 12 (23) ; Hierocles, Synecdem. ; Porphyrogenitus 
 de Adm. 2. 2.) 
 
 " From Cedrenus we learn that Rheginus, one of the mem- 
 bers of the first (Ecumenical Council, was bishop 
 (Vol. II. p. 436. 9. 'A^tXXftov eVioTcoTrov A.apt<rcrrjg

 irapovros vvv Prjyivep 2KO7reAo>i' Ka\ AioStopw TpiKKTjs.) As 
 Xoi here is the plural of 2/coTreAor, it is natural to suppose that 
 during the fourth century the appellation ol SKorreAot, the 
 Rocks, was collectively applied by the Thessalians to the 
 islands lying off the Magnesian coast; but in process of time 
 it. was restricted to the principal one, which was Peparethos. 
 This confusion of names led Hierocles to imagine that vrjo-og 
 SucoTrtAos was distinct from vr/o-os TlfnaprjOos. In Porphyro- 
 genitus, 2f7riAa, corresponding to the 2*<>7reAor of Hierocles, 
 owes its existence probably to bad copying. 
 
 " If Peparethos is Skopelo, it follows that "Ltor, 17, Ikos, is 
 Lidhromia; for Scymnus places "IKOS (incorrectly *Ios) near 
 
 " A X o v v rj <r o r, o v, ^, Halonnesus, once a subject of

 "Pliny's Gerontia, Irrhesia, Solimnia, Scandila, Ende* 
 mia, and Nea cannot be determined with any degree of cer- 
 tainty. His Scandila, however, sounds so much like the 
 modern Skdndzura (TO. Smmroupa) , a small island near Skiro, 
 that we should be inclined to admit their identity, were it not 
 for our conviction that similarity of sound alone in proper 
 names is not invariably a safe guide. Thus, Piperi (TO ITi- 
 trepi), an islet near Mount Athos, has for some time enjoyed 
 the reputation of being the same as Peparethos, merely be- 
 cause the two words sound somewhat alike."

 In the following sentences, there is either a confusion of

 For an admirable account of the events of the Persian War, 
 the chief of which are related in the extracts from Herodo- 
 tos, see Grote's History of Greece, Vol. IV. Ch. XXXV., 
 XXXVI., and Vol. V. Ch. XXXVIII. - XLII. The notes to 
 the several chapters are of great value. In the account of 
 the construction of the bridge across the Hellespont, he falls 
 into the error of supposing that the sterns of the ships were 
 towards the Euxine. He is misled by a false analogy of the 
 expression Vl icap or cTriKap in II. XVI. 392, where it means 
 head-foremost or with the stream. But here the genitive 
 HOVTOV fixes the direction of the heads of the vessels towards 
 the Pontus, i. e. the Euxine,

 LONDON SPECTATOR. 
 
 "There is no book in the English language which will make a 
 more delightful companion than this : We have few criti- 
 cisms to make upon this volume, which must not only be read, 
 but possessed, in order to be adequately valued." 
 
 BOSTON TRANSCRIPT. 
 
 " The volume is indeed worthy to be ranked among those rare 
 volumes of selections which really educate the public taste. 
 Anybody who will read this volume through, and thoroughly 
 appreciate its rich contents, may be sure that he has a true sense 
 of the inmost essence of poetry. " 
 
 BOSTON COURIER. 
 
 " It is an exquisite gem of a book in print, paper, and binding. 
 Its intrinsic merits are not less; for we hold it to be, on the 
 whole, the very best selection of poetry, for its size, in the lan- 
 guage. There is not a poem in it which is not of enduring 
 merit." 
 
 NEW YORK INDEPENDENT. 
 
 " Among all the books of this new era of elegance, two 
 
 have been on the whole distinctly the most beautiful, namely, De 
 Tocqueville's Democracy in America, and the present 'Golden 
 Treasury.' Both are better manufactured books than England 
 can show ; for although it is true that the materials for both 
 were in part imported, yet the deft touch of American fingers', 
 the keen sight and judgment and 'faculty' of American eye 
 and brain, impart a finish and an altogether (this is much better 
 than to steal ' tout ensemble ' from the wicked Emperor) which 
 John Bull's big, thumby fingers can in no wise attain unto. We 
 recommend attention to the singularly clear and elegant cut 
 of the type, more particularly in the exquisite nonpareil of the 
 notes ; the perfect clearness and evenness of the press-work ; the 
 workmanlike finish and tasteful design of the binding, entirely 
 simple, yet ornamental in the best sense ; and the sharp delicacy 
 in design and impression of the engraved tail-pieces and head- 
 pieces.

 "It includes specimens of all the great masters in the art 
 of Poetry, selected with the matured judgment of a man con- 
 centrated on obtaining insight into the feelings and tastes of 
 childhood, and desirous to awaken its finest impulses, to cul- 
 tivate its keenest sensibilities." 
 
 CINCINNATI GAZETTE. 
 
 " The University Press at Cambridge has turned out many 
 wonderful specimens of the art, but in exquisite finish it has 
 never equalled the evidence of its skill which now lies before us. 
 The text, compared with the average specimens of modern books, 
 shines out with as bright a contrast as an Elzevir by the side of 
 one of its dingy and bleared contemporaries. In the quality 
 of its paper, in its vignettes and head-pieces, the size of its 
 pages, in every feature that can gratify the eye, indeed, the 
 ' Garland ' could hardly bear improvement. Similar in its gen- 
 eral getting up to the much-admired Golden Treasury of English 
 Songs and Lyrics, issued by the same publishers a few months 
 since, it excels, we think, in the perfection of various minor 
 details." 
 
 NEW YORK WORLD. 
 
 " It is a beautiful book, the most beautiful in some respedls 
 that has been published for years ; going over a large number of 
 poets and wide range of themes as none but a poet could have 
 done. A choice cabinet of precious jewels, or better still, a 
 dainty wreath of blossoms, ' The Children's Garland.'" 
 
 BOSTON TRANSCRIPT. 
 
 " It is in all respects a delicious volume, and will be as great a 
 favorite with the elder as with the younger members of every 
 family into which it penetrates. Some of the best poems in the 
 English language are included in the selections. Paper, printing, 
 and binding, indeed, all the elements entering into the mechani- 
 cal execution of the book, offer to the view nothing wherein 
 the most fastidious eye can detect a blemish." 
 
 SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN. 
 
 " It is almost too dainty a book to be touched, and yet it is sure 
 to be well thumbed whenever it falls into the hands of a lover of 
 genuine poetry."

 COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER. 
 
 "The volume before us is an attempt to restore and purify the 
 sacred lyrics of the English language, and to give them without 
 regard to creeds, but only with reference to their poetic excel- 
 lence and their religious purity. It contains the choicest hymns 
 which have been written, gathered from all sources, whether lay 
 or clerical, and judged only by pure religion and a high poetic 
 standard. In all cases where it is known, the authorship is given. 
 The selections are admirable, the arrangement suggestive, and 
 the mechanical adornments of the boojc are exquisite. It is 
 enriched with copious and valuable notes' and indexes of authors, 
 first lines, and subjects." 
 
 BALTIMORE LUTHERAN OBSERVER. 
 " The Book of Praise is a gem in the book-making line ; 
 printed with exquisite taste and delicacy of design, on tinted 
 paper, illustrated with those dainty devices, half arabesque, half 
 gothic, which give a mellow aroma, as of old books, to the head 
 and tail pieces, and bound even more faultlessly than printed, it 
 lies on one's table like a delicate and graceful flower, or some 
 rare print or rich jewel. Such books are positive pleasures, with- 
 out reference to what is in them, or with only the faint assurance 
 that there is something old and rich in them justifying their 
 external beauty." 
 
 WESTERN EPISCOPALIAN. 
 
 " It is one of those books, the very expression of whose pretty, 
 winning countenance, if we might so say, with its chaste title and 
 embossing, irresistibly draws one to seek farther and closer ac- 
 quaintance." 
 
 NEW YORK METHODIST. 
 
 "This is in everyway an attractive book. First, it is agreeable 
 to find Sir Roundell Palmer, the British Attorney-General, in- 
 terested in such a work as compiling a book of the most spirited 
 and evangelical hymns in the English language. Then it is 
 agreeable to know that the compiler's taste corresponds so de- 
 cidedly with one's own. And finally, it is pleasant to find the 
 publishers conceiving so worthily of their task, and presenting 
 these sacred lyrics of the Christian Church in so graceful and 
 chaste a form before the public eye."

 " We live in better times '. and iue are not afraid to say that, 
 though there were many clever men in Rngland during the 
 latter half of the seventeenth century, there were only two great 
 creative minds. One of these minds produced the Paradise 
 Lost; the other, the Pilgrim's Progress." MACAULAY. 
 
 BOSTON TRAVELLER. 
 
 " We believe the Pilgrim's Progress to be as original a work as 
 ever was written. It has gone through numerous editions, many 
 of which have appeared in this country ; and this Cambridge 
 edition which has the merit of coming from the University 
 Press is incomparably the best of which we can boast. It has 
 the advantage of that combination of modern typographical lux- 
 uries and regard for original peculiarities that is now becoming 
 common, and which in this instance is another proof of Bunyan's 
 immense popularity. When an author becomes ornamental as 
 well as useful, his position may be considered secure ; and it is 
 many years since the Pilgrim's Progress became the property of 
 artists, a book on which they could profitably display their skill. " 
 
 WORCESTER SPY. 
 
 " If John Bunyan could have foreseen that his immortal alle- 
 gory would one day come into the world from the University 
 Press, Cambridge, it would have consoled him for many of the 
 trials he encountered on his steep and thorny road to heaven. 
 But he was not a man of great worldly sagacity ; as he says in 
 his apology for his book, 
 
 ' When at first I took my pen in hand 
 Thus for to write, I did not understand 
 That I at all should make a little Book 
 In such a mode. ' 
 
 "The Book is one of the Golden Treasury Series, with a 
 vignette title and illustrations by Stothard, bound in vellum, and 
 exquisitely printed. No books are now published which approach 
 so near to perfection in the -art of printing as the books belonging 
 to this elegant series." 
 
 THE PRESBYTERIAN. 
 
 ' A beautiful and tasteful edition of the 'inimitable dreamer,' 
 a book which can never be multiplied too much, or too richly 
 adorned by the printer's and engraver's arts." 
 
 ST. JOHNS GLOBE. 
 
 "The 'Pilgrim's Progress' is a production which, whilst it 
 grows mellow with age, never loses its freshness. Nearly two 
 hundred years have elapsed since it was sent forth to the world, 
 but it is as generally read now, and exercises as powerful an influ- 
 ence, as it did when the author first published it. "

 " We thank the gentle and genial author of the ' Heir of Red-

 golden deeds of all times and all lands. Such books as this are 
 wanted in the world. They do honor to humanity and make the 
 reader happier and better." 
 
 CHRISTIAN TIMES. 
 
 " We can but wish for a book like this, so full of noble exam- 
 ple and incitements, a wide circulation among every class of peo- 
 ple in this land." 
 
 HARTFORD PRESS. 
 
 " The volume is made up of charmingly written narratives of 
 sweet and noble deeds in ancient and modern times, of those in 
 humble and in high stations, in all lands. A touch of kindness 
 makes the world kin. The deeds celebrated are not those of 
 mere daring or adventure, but such as are golden in the best 
 sense. 
 
 They are tales of land and sea, of what courageous hearts have 
 done and suffered for principle and humanity." 
 
 SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN. 
 
 " On the title-page is the figure of Florence Nightingale, ' the 
 ladv with a lamp,' but most of the golden deeds recounted are 
 gathered from the past, gleaming through lapse of time as stars 
 
 through space The book is full' of the noblest lessons, and 
 
 charms alike the eye and the heart." 
 
 BOSTON POST. 
 
 " The authoress has trodden upon well worn paths, but green 
 fields and flowers spring up in her footsteps. She narrates old 
 stories, but they seem new in her handling. She does not write 
 a dull cold narrative : by a few touches, by incident and conclu- 
 sions, she makes the records of these great events the source of 
 inspiration to the young and ambitious."

 " Gentlemen, prepare to smile. Here is an interest for a min-

 dite searches and seizures in the regions of infinite jest. Like 
 all good jesters, he has the quality of sound philosophy in him,, 
 and of reason also, for he discriminates closely, and serves up his 
 wit with a deal of refinement in it." 
 
 HARTFORD PRESS. 
 
 " So exquisitely is the book printed, that every jest in it shines 
 
 like a new gold dollar. It is the apotheosis of jokes 
 
 There is jollity enough in it to keep the whole American press 
 good humored." 
 
 PROVIDENCE JOURNAL. 
 
 " Mark Lemon, who helps to flavor Punch, has gathered this 
 volume of anecdotes, this parcel of sharp and witty sayings, and 
 we have no fear in declaring that the reader will find it a book of 
 some wisdom and much amusement. By this single ' Lemon ' 
 we judge of the rest." 
 
 CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE. 
 
 " This little volume is a very agreeable provocative of mirth, 
 and as such, it will be useful in driving dull care away."

 PORTLAND TRANSCRIPT. 
 
 " These Old Ballads have a value as pictures of the manners

 lovers of poetry. In giving them authentic and consistent form, 
 Mr. Allingham has performed a good work," 
 
 WORCESTER SPY. 
 
 " The Ballad Book, edited by William Allingham is one of the 
 gems of the season. It contains seventy-five of the choicest 
 British Ballads, introduced by a delightful introductory essay on 
 Ballad literature." 
 
 PHILADELPHIA AGE. 
 
 " The selections in this delightful little book have been made 
 with the greatest care. It contains nearly a hundred of the best 
 old English Ballads, which the reader will be glad to find pre- 
 sented in an acceptable form. It should be in every library." 
 
 CHICAGO JOURNAL OF COMMERCE. 
 
 " This is a fine collection of old British Ballads, selected and 
 arranged by the English poet, William Allingham, with excellent 
 taste and judgment. It contains the best versions of all the 
 well-known old Ballads, with many others not so familiar, but 
 
 COMMONWEALTH. 
 
 " Altogether it is one of the best books of its class we have 
 ever seen." 
 
 ANTI-SLAVERY STANDARD. 
 
 " Mr. Allingham appears here as the editor of what we may

 " All the selections are in harmony with the general soirit of

 the songs of a better world in the ears of this wicked generation. 
 As for the getting up of this volume, it is in such perfect taste 
 that not Oxford or Paternoster Row can show anything more 
 exquisite. It is well it is so, for beautiful forms are the fitting 
 shrine for thoughts of such purity as have less of earth than of 
 heaven." 
 
 METHODIST. 
 
 " So rich and complete is the volume, that there is scarcely a 
 subject to which reference is not made. The craving of the soul 
 for spiritual nourishment on the Sabbath is fully satisfied by 
 drinking in the sweetness of sacred poetry." 
 
 LITERARY REGISTER. 
 
 " Its piety is not of the obtrusive kind, that repels, but it 
 breathes a gentle sweetness that glides into the spirit of the 
 reader, and possesses alike the intellect and the affections." 
 
 BOSTON POST. 
 
 " We cheerfully commend the collection to the Christian 
 Mothers of the land, that they receive aid in beautifying the 
 immortal and fadeless flowers lives running forever parallel 
 with their own placed in their keeping." 
 
 CONGREGATIONALISM 
 
 " One cannot open the book at random without finding some- 
 thing excellent. The gleaning is from harvest-fields of old and 
 new literature ; many of the later poems are from sources quite 
 unfamiliar, yet they are as beautiful as they are fresh."

 NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW. 
 
 " Its external form, the prettiness of its cover, the clearness of 
 its finely-cut type, the appropriate originality of its initial letters, 
 the excellence of its large illustrations, are only the befitting 
 dress and adornment of stories delightful alike in feeling and in 
 fancy." 
 
 SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN. 
 
 " It has an individuality and flavor of its own, is very charm- 
 ing as a work of fancy, and healthful in the tone which breathes 
 through the stories, like fragrance through a grove of pines." 
 
 BOSTON JOURNAL. 
 
 " It is a book for children ; written not down to them, as some 
 by mistaken opinion are, but up ; so that it will not be found un- 
 interesting to the most thoughtful reader. If any one has a 
 child whom he loves, and in whose genius he particularly delights 
 and hopes, let him buy this book, and in an auspicious hour, 
 perchance when day fades into twilight, let him read one of these 
 stories to him, and he will find out better than from any other 
 critic their value and their meaning." 
 
 CLEVELAND DAILY HERALD. 
 
 " In the opinion of a jury of little critics to whom the book 
 was submitted, and whose decisions have considerable weight 
 with us in matters of juvenile literature, Dream Children is 
 'one of the very best and ( nicest' books of its class, and it occu- 
 pies a place of honor on the children's shelf." 
 
 " Dream Children is as ideal and imaginative as childhood 
 itself. Whoever reads it, no matter of what age, will be morally 
 elevated and refined at beholding the beautiful exposition of 
 what is most lovely in humanity enacted in the world of flowers 
 and animals. The sense of what we read is twofold more affect- 
 ing when we can see our very selves through the thin veil of 
 fable, fairy, and allegory. This is a book which one would de- 
 light in reading to his child, alone, in some quiet, large arm-chair ; 
 or if he had no child, to ma'~e him wish that he had ; for it is of 
 that character of excellence to so commend itself, you wish 
 everybody to know and have it."

A NEW EDITION OF 
 
 DE TOCQUEVILLE'S 
 
 DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA 
 
 Translated by HENRY REEVE, Esq. Edited, with 
 Notes, the Translation Revised and in great part 
 Rewritten, and the Additions made to the recent 
 Paris Editions now first translated, by FRANCIS 
 BOWEN, Alford Professor of Moral Philosophy in 
 Harvard University. 
 
 Elegantly printed on linen paper, at the University Press.

 BOSTON POST. 
 
 "A new edition of this noble work is before us, carefully 
 edited by Professor Bowen, with brief elucidatory notes from 
 the twelfth edition, and contains the matter which I)e Tocque- 
 ville then added, and the last edition which he supervised. This 
 matter consists of his Essay on Democracy in Switzerland, his 
 great Speech, predicting the French Revolution of 1848, and 
 his eloquent Advertisement, addressed to his countrymen, urging 
 a study of American institutions, as affording the most instruc- 
 tive lessons for the organization and conduct of the new French 
 Republic. These three papers are for the first time translated 
 and printed here, and are valuable additions. To this is added 
 a Memoir of the Author." 
 
 NEW YORK TRIBUNE. 
 
 "The work is now presented to the American public in a form 
 not unworthy of its high claim as a profound disquisition on the 
 philosophy of republican institutions as exemplified in the United 
 States. It is brought out. in the superb typography of the Cam- 
 bridge University Press." 
 
 CINCINNATI DAILY GAZETTE. 
 
 " For substantial elegance, perfection of paper, faultlessness 
 of typography, and severely simple tastefulness, the Cambridge 
 edition of De Tocqueville has never been equalled on this side 
 of the Atlantic. Indeed, we have seen few or no rivals bearing 
 an English imprint. It is an honor not only to the publishers, 
 but to the book-trade of America. " 
 
 NEW YORK TIMES. 
 
 "In its mechanical execution, this edition approaches what it 
 is so difficult to find in either books or humanity, perfection." 
 
 BOSTON COURIER. 
 
 " It is one of the handsomest and most tasteful books which 
 have ever issued from the American press. The paper, the type, 
 the press-work, the binding, are all of the first quality. The 
 casket is worthy of the gem ; we cannot give it higher praise."

Bow en's Logic. 
 A TREATISE ON LOGIC, 
 
 OR THE LAWS OF PURE THOUGHT; 
 
 Comprising both the Aristotelic and the Hamiltonian 
 Analyses of Logical Forms. 
 
 BY FRANCIS BOWEN, 
 
 ALFORD PROFESSOR OF MORAL PHILOSOPHY IN HARVARD 
 
 UNIVERSITY.

 THE PUBLISHERS' CIRCULAR. 
 
 " There was great need for just such a book as this. Whate- 
 ly's Logic is too old for the present state of the science, and the 
 great work of Mill deals more with applied and concrete thought 
 than with the abstract laws of pure thought. Professor Bowen's. 
 work is fully up to the modern state of the science. It embodies 
 the results reached by Hamilton, Mansel, Thomson, De Morgan, 
 Boole, Mill, and others, who, within the last quarter of a century, 
 have given a new impetus to the study of the laws of thought 
 and the theory of logical forms. The labors of Keiswetter, Fries, 
 Bencke, Dressier, Drobisch, and others among the Germans, 
 have also been placed under contribution. We have thus a man- 
 ual for collegiate study and for the perusal of professional and 
 educated minds, which will initiate them into the most recent 
 investigations. We should very much like to see the work intro- 
 duced into our institutions for advanced instruction." 
 
 THE ROUND TABLE. 
 
 "There has been in our language an open field and a pressing 
 demand for a treatise of the character which Professor Bowen has 
 sought to provide. We are glad that he has been induced to 
 meet this demand. We are glad, also, to find that he has met it 
 so well. A simple inspection of the well-conceived and well- 
 arranged table of contents is sufficient to convince any one who 
 is conversant with the subject, and with other treatises, that the 
 author has been very judicious in the selection of his leading 
 themes and in the general outline of his subordinate divisions. 
 i . ... We can confidently pronounce this work to be scholar- 
 like and thorough in its character, and most honorable to the 
 distinguished position and reputation of its respected author." 
 NEW-ENGLANDER. 
 
 "The plan of Professor Bowen is more comprehensive than 
 that of any of the works which we have named. The execution 
 is in many respects deserving of high commendation, as we 
 should expect it would be from the well-known ability, thorough- 
 ness, and industry of the author." 
 
 ZION'S HERALD. 
 
 "As it regards definition, clearness, and fulness qf statement of 
 the various points which make a complete scientific treatise, we 
 think the author has succeeded in producing a better text-book 
 than any other before the American people."

BOWEN'S HAMILTON'S METAPHYSICS. 
 
 THE METAPHYSICS OF SIR WILLIAM HAMILTON, 
 
 Collected, Arranged, and Abridged for the Use of Colleges and Pri- 
 vate Students. By FRANCIS BOWEN, A. M., Alford Professor 
 of Moral Philosophy in Harvard College. 12mo. Cloth. Price, 
 $ 2.00. ^ 
 
 The publishers take pleasure in stating that this work has met with great favor, 
 and has already been introduced as a text-book in all the principal colleges and 
 institutions of learning in the country. 
 
 Extract from the Editor's Preface. 
 
 " As any course of instruction in the Philosophy of Mind at the present day 
 must be very imperfect which does not comprise a tolerably full view of Hamilton's 
 Metaphysics, I have endeavored, in the present volume, to prepare a text-book 
 which should contain, in his own language, the substance of all that he has written 
 upon the subject. For this purpose, the ' Lectures on Metaphysics ' have been 
 taken as the basis of the work ; and I have freely abridged them by striking out 
 the repetitions and redundancies in which they abound, and omitting also, in great 
 part, the load of citations and references that they contain, as these are of inferior 
 interest except to a student of the history of philosophy, or as marks of the stu- 
 pendous erudition of the author." 
 
 The Rev. Dr. Walker, late President of Harvard University, in a note to the 
 editor, says of the book : " Having examined it with some care, I cannot refrain 
 from congratulating you on the success of the undertaking. You have given the 
 Metaphysics of Sir William Hamilton in his own words, and yet in a form admira- 
 bly adapted to the recitation-room, and also to private students." 
 
 Prof. J. Torrey, University of Vermont. 
 
 The editor has left scarcely anything to be desired. The work presents in short 
 compass the Philosophy of Sir W. Hamilton, in his own language, more completely 
 and satisfactorily than many students would find it done by tho author himself in 
 the whole series of his voluminous and scattered productions." 
 
 From the North American Review. 
 
 " Mr. Bowen's eminence as a scholar, thinker, and writer in this department, his 
 large experience as a teacher, and his experimental use of the ' Lectures ' as a text- 
 book, might have given the assurance, which he has fully verified, that so delicate 
 an editorial task would be thoroughly, faithfully, and successfully performed. We 
 cannot doubt that if Sir William were still living, the volume would have his cor- 
 dial imprimatur; ai/d the students of our colleges are to be congratulated that the 
 labors of the great master of Metaphysical Science are now rendered much more 
 availing for their benefit, than they were made, perhaps than they could have been 
 made, by his own hand."

THE PANEGYRICUS OF ISOCRATES. 
 
 From the Text of BREMI, with English Notes by C. C. FELTON, 
 LL.D., late Eliot Professor of Greek Literature in Harvard 
 University. Third Edition. Revised. 12mo. pp. 135. Price, 
 $1.00. 
 
 Extract from the Preface. 
 
 " The Panegyricus has been selected for publication, partly because it is an ex- 
 cellent specimen of the best manner of Lacerates, and partly because, by its plan, it 
 presents a review of the history of Athens from the mythical ages down to the 
 period following the treaty of AntalciJas. It is a convenient work to make the 
 text-book for lessons in Greek history, affording a central point around which to 
 assemble the leading events." 
 
 From the Commonwealth. 
 
 " The Panegyricus of Isocrates, edited by the late President Felton, of Harvard 
 University, has just appeared in a new edition revised by Professor Goodwin, the 
 successor of Mr. Felton in the Greek chair at that University. The oration itself is 
 aa familiar to all .scholars as the best of the twenty-one extant speeches of Milton's 
 4 old man eloquent.' It is an encomium on Athens, her material, intellectual, and 
 moral greatness, and her claims to the chief place among the Grecian States. De- 
 livered or published at a time when the Spartan supremacy was almost unques- 
 tioned, before the brilliant campaigns of Epaminondas had broken the charm of 
 the Lacedemonian name, it is a fine compend of the mythical and the authentic 
 history of the Attic Commonwealth and far superior in truth of matter and graces 
 of style to the Fuueral Oration of Lysias, on a kindred theme. In Isocrates, in- 
 deed, Grecian rhetoric, as distinguished from oratory, reached its perfection, and 
 few writers in any tongue have excelled him in clear and splendid diction. The 
 nervous and manly style of Demosthenes may be contrasted with it ; the one had 
 the elegance of a writer, the other the trenchant force of a popular orator. 
 
 " The Panegyricus was the Fourth of July Oration of the Athenians. But this 
 of Isocrates is, by way of eminence the Panfryricus. It is here printed by Sever, 
 Francis, & Co. in the Greek text, with copious English notes by Mr. Felton, who 
 delighted to pour out on his readers the wealth of historic and illustrative learning 
 which he possessed. The critical skill, which he was less fond of displaying, is in 
 this edition supplied by the diligence of Professor Goodwin, whose work on Greek 
 Syntax has already made him a high authority in matters of construction and dis- 
 puted texts. 
 
 "The volume before us is neatly printed, and does credit to the publishers as 
 well as to the editors." 
 
 From the Bibliotheca Sacra. 
 
 " Messrs. Sever, Francis, & Co., Cambridee, have published a new edition of the 
 Panegyricus of Isocrates. The present edition is edited by Professor Goodwin, ->f 
 Harvard University , who h^s added grammatical and other notes, which prive in- 
 creased value to the volume. The Panegyricus is one of the best ppecimens of 
 Isocrates ; and the apparatus furnished in this attractive addition will fully meet 
 the wants of the student." 
 
THE CLOUDS OF AKISTOPHANES. 
 
 With Notes by C. C. FELTON, LL. D., late Eliot Professor of Greek 
 Literature in Harvard University. 12mo. Fifth Edition, pp. 
 236. Price, $ 1.50. 
 
 Extract from the Preface. 
 
 " The greatness of the genius of Aristophanes is not generally appreciated, and 
 the value of his comedies as illustrations of the political antiquities, the life, 
 morals, and manners of Athens, is not fully understood. The truth is, we are 
 indebted to him for information upon the working of the Attic institutions, which, 
 had all his plays been lost, we should have vainly sought for in the works of other 
 authors. No intelligent reader can doubt that Aristophanes was a man of the most 
 profound acquaintance with the political institutions of his age, no reader of poetic 
 fancy can fail to see that he possessed an extraordinary creative genius. It is im- 
 possible to study his works attentively, without feeling that his was one of the mas- 
 ter minds of the Attic drama. The brightest flashes of a poetical spirit are con- 
 stantly breaking out from the midst of the broadest merriment and the sharpest 
 satire. An imagination of endless variety informs those lyrical passages which gem 
 his works, and are among the most precious brilliants of the Greek language. In 
 
 the drawing of characters his plays exhibit consummate skill The comedy 
 
 of the Clouds is, for many reasons, one of the most interesting remains of the 
 theatrical literature of Athens. Though, like every other comedy, its wit turns 
 upon local and temporary relations, it has, what is not common to every other 
 comedy, a moral import of permanent value. It was written at a time of great 
 changes in the national character of the Greeks, and bears marks of its author's 
 determined opposition to the new ethical and philosophical views that were eating 
 into the very heart of the national virtues." 
 
 Preface to the Fourth Edition. 
 
 " In this new edition of the Clouds the commentary has been revised, corrected, 
 and in some instances enlarged. An Appendix to the Notes has been added, con- 
 taining references to Professor Goodwin's 'Syntax of Moods and Tenses of the 
 Greek Verb,' a work which has already taken its place among the most valuable 
 aids to the student in acquiring a knowledge of the refinements of the Greek lan- 
 guage. 
 
 "The Clouds is one of the three or four pieces of Aristophanes which are 
 least tainted with indecency and coarseness. Nothing therefore has been omitted 
 from the text of this edition, as but little danger is apprehended to the morals of 
 young men from a few freaks of an old Athenian's gamesome imagination, to be 
 
 interpreted only by an assiduous use of the grammar and lexicon The text 
 
 of this edition of the Clouds is printed from Dindorfs Poctte Scenic! Graeci. In 
 some few passages the readings of Hermann have been preferred. In the prepara- 
 tion of the Notes, the labors of others have been freely used, particularly the 
 elegant commentaries of that elegant Hellenist, Mr. Mitchell, whose editions of the 
 separate comedies, notwithstanding occasional errors in minute points of Greek 
 grammar, are an honor to English scholarship. The excellent edition of the Clouds 
 by Theodor Kock has been consulted, and valuable remarks have occasionally been 
 taken from his Commentary Some of the mntprin.lo of the notes and illus- 
 trations have been drawn from the editor's personal observations in Greece ; others 
 are drawn from the curious analogies of the follies and impostures flourishing in 
 the present day, with those effectively and wittily handled by the poet."

THE BIEDS OF AKISTOPHANES. 
 
 With Notes by C. C. FELTON, LL. D., late Eliot Professor of Greek 
 Literature in Harvard University. Third Edition. Revised. 
 12mo. pp.235. Price, $1.50. 
 
 EJ tract from the Preface. 
 
 " The Birds of Aristophanes has always been regarded as one of his most delight- 
 ful pieces. Like the Clouds, it is comparatively free from the objectionable license 
 of thought and language which deforms several of his plays to such a degree that 
 they cannot be used in schools and colleges. It is true there are some passages 
 in this play also too freely executed; but it has been decided, on mature reflection, 
 to let them stand, so as to offer the drama entire, on the principles which guided 
 my decision in editing the Clouds. The text of this edition is reprinted from the 
 Poetae Scenici of Dindorf. .... I have endeavored to explain from other sources 
 a branch of the subject to which little attention has heretofore been given; I mean 
 the natural history of the birds, which are very entertaining figures among the per- 
 sons of the play. I suspected that the poet's selection of birds was not made at 
 random, but that, in every instance, they were chosen with a special meaning, and 
 to effect a particular purpose in point of art. In considering the play from this 
 point of view, I have been much indebted to my friend and colleague, Professor 
 Agassiz, of whose profound and comprehensive knowledge of ornithology I have 
 been permitted to avail myself in attempting to determine the species of some of the 
 birds not hitherto identified; and I have come to the conclusion that, in all cases, 
 the character and habits of the birds are exactly and curiously adapted to the parts 
 they perform in the comedy, showing Aristophanes to have been a careful observer 
 of nature as well as a consummate poet Great care has been taken to illus- 
 trate the political illusions, and the application of judicial expressions, in the 
 
 course of the piece The satire of the birds is more playful, comprehensive 
 
 and genial than that of any other of the poet's comedies. The spirit of parody and 
 burlesque, which is a general trait in the Aristophanic drama, here displays itself 
 most freely and amusingly. 
 
 " The dithyrambic poets in general are unsparingly ridiculed ; the philosophers 
 and men of science are not allowed to pass untouched ; while profligates and im- 
 postors of every class and description are here as well as in the ' Clouds,' held up 
 to scorn and contempt." 
 
 From Prof. North of Hamilton College. 
 
 " President Felton had intellectual gifts and attainments which especially fitted 
 him for the difficult work of editing Aristophanes. His edition of the * Birds of 
 Aristophanes,' published by Sever, Francis, & Co., is worthy to be more generally 
 introduced among the Greek Studies in the colleges of our country."

CICERO'S TUSCULAN DISPUTATIONS. 
 
 Book First : The Dream of Scipio, and Extracts from the Dialogues 
 on Old Age and Friendship. With English Notes by THOMAS 
 CHASE, A. M. Seventh Edition, pp. 208. Price, $ 1.25. 
 
 Extract from the Preface. 
 
 " Together with the first book of the Tusculan Disputations, the editor has here 
 presented the Somnium Scipionis, and extracts from the dialogues De Senectute 
 and De Amicitia; thus combining all the passages in the works of Cicero in which 
 the question of the Immortality of the Soul is discussed. Besides the intrinsic inter- 
 est and value of these treatises as containing the maturest decisions of old philosophy 
 upon a question of universal and nearest concern, they are adorned with a grace of 
 style and happiness of illustration characteristic of their author and worthy of their 
 subject None of the philosophical works of Cicero holds a higher rank than the 
 Tusculan Disputations for beauty of language and elevation of sentiment; in the 
 Dream of Scipio the lively narrative and poetic coloring enhance the admiration 
 which the loftiness of its views cannot fail to excite; and the dialogues on Old Age 
 and Friendship have always been regarded as treasures of thought and models of 
 
 composition The text of the book of the Tusculan Disputations is founded 
 
 chiefly upon the admirable editions of Moser and Kiihner; but those of Orelli, 
 Nobbe, and Tischer have been compared on every passage, and various old editions 
 
 consulted in doubtful cases The Notes are designed to call attention to the 
 
 most important peculiarities of construction, and to explain the most serious diffi- 
 culties of syntax and interpretation, without the injustice to the student of robbing 
 him entirely of the pleasure and advantage of surmounting obstacles by his own un- 
 aided effort. Particular attention has been given to the illustration of the subjunc- 
 tive mood ; and it is believed- that there is not in the book an instance of its use 
 where the principles upon which it depends have not been set forth, in words or by 
 references, in some part of the notes. Every teacher will acknowledge the pro- 
 priety of devoting especial labor to the elucidation of a form that conveys so many 
 delicate shades of meaning, and upon which so much of the beauty and expressive- 
 ness of the Latin language depends. On this point, as on many others, great 
 assistance has been derived from the Latin Grammar of Rladvig, whose translator, 
 Mr. Woods (Oxford, 1849), has rendered a service to English scholarship by 
 making an admirable treatise accessible, which bears the marks, on every page, of 
 the discernment and clearness of a master mind. From this work large quotations 
 are made in the notes. The derivation and force of the particles a point whose 
 elucidation is of hardly less importance than that of the subjunctive for a correct 
 understanding of the language have also received attention, particularly in the 
 notes on the Somnium Scipionis, Cato Major, and Laelius. The biographical notes 
 are designed rather as guides to the Classical Dictionary than complete descriptions. 
 Frequent reference has been made to Zumpt's Grammar, Beck's Latin Syntax, 
 Andrews and Stoddard's Latin Grammar, and the American Translation of Freund's 
 Lexicon." 
 
HOEACE. 
 
 The Works of HORACE. With English Notes by the REV. ARTHUR 
 MACLEANE, A. M., Head Master of King Edward's School, Bath. 
 Kevised and Edited by REGINALD H. CHASK, A. M. 12mo. 
 Cloth. Price, $ 1.75. 
 
 This edition of Horace is substantially the same with the Abridgment of the 
 celebrated edition of Macleane iii the "Bibliotheca Classica," .only such changes 
 having been made in the notes as seemed necessary to adapt them to the use of 
 students in the colleges and schools of the United States. The Arguments of 
 the Odes have been introduced from the larger work-, aud Dr. Beck's Introduction 
 to the Metres has been appended to the Notes. 
 
 The text is the same as in the larger edition. There may be found some little 
 changes in the respect of interpretation, but not such as to cause any embarrass- 
 ment to those who may happen to consult both editions. Discussions respecting 
 the various readings have been omitted ; the information and assistance contained 
 in the Introductions have been for the most part condensed and transferred to the 
 Motes. A few more passages have been translated, and some notes have been added 
 which were not thought necessary in the larger edition. General remarks have 
 been almost entirely omitted, as well as discussions on disputed points and the 
 various opinions of other editions. 
 
 The high character of the English edition of Macleane, as well as the skill of the 
 American Editor in his preparation of the work, have rendered the present edition 
 highly acceptable in the various colleges and seminaries where it has come into 
 
 CICEKO PRO CLUENTIO. 
 
 M. T. Ciceronis pro A. Cluentio Habito Oratio ad Judices ; with Eng- 
 lish Notes by A. STICKNEY, A. M., late Professor of Latin in 
 Trinity College. 12mo. Cloth, pp.144. Price, $1.00. 
 
 Extract from the Preface. 
 
 " The present edition of Cicero pro Cluentio is intended as a text-book for college 
 use. The Notes are designed to supply the student only with such information in 
 respect to the facts of the case and the scope of the argument as is necessary to the 
 proper understanding of the Oration. Grammatical peculiarities are also noticed to 
 a considerable extent, especially in the earlier part of the Oration. 
 
 'The text was already printed before the editor undertook the preparation of the 
 notes. It is simply a reprint.of that of Klotz, as it appears in the Teubner edition, 
 published at Leipzig. In a few cases various readings have been given in the notes, 
 where they afforded aid in the explanation of any particular passage. The editions 
 consulted in the preparation of the notes are those of Professor Kamsay, Glasgow, 
 1858; of Klotz, Leipzig, 1835-39; of Classen, Bonn, 1831; of George Long, London, 
 1855; of Garatoni, Naples, 1789, and the Commentary of Manutius. The gram- 
 mars referred to are those of Zumpt, Madvig, and Andrews and Stoddard. The 
 references are, however, almost entirely to Zumpt, as there is at present no gen- 
 erally accessible edition of Madvig. An Introduction and an outline of the Speech 
 are prefixed, with the sections numbered for the purpose of reference in the 
 notes."

SELECTIONS FROM MODERN GKEEK WRITERS, 
 
 In Prose and Poetry. With Notes by C. C. FELTON, LL. D., late 
 Eliot Professor of Greek Literature in Harvard University. 12rao. 
 Cloth, pp.214. Price, $1.25. 
 
 Extract from the. Preface. 
 
 " The object of this little volume is to place in the hands of Greek students in the 
 United States a book which may exhibit the present state of the Greek language, as 
 written and spoken by cultivated men, and the character of the popular language 
 as exhibited in those simple and beautiful poems, the Klephtic ballads and the 
 festive songs of Christopoulos. The selections have been made with particular 
 reference to the history and condition of Greece. I have limited myself to a few 
 authors, and have taken only passages bearing upon the subject and having an 
 interest and value of themselves. Of the numerous discourses delivered on various 
 occasions, I have selected only two. Both, 1 think, are distinguished for their 
 eloquence and the great interest that attaches to the memory of those whom they 
 commemorate. Their authors are among the most eminent of the living Greeks. 
 .... The few Klephtic ballads here offered to the reader are such as exhibit the 
 tone of thought and feeling among the simple and hardy people in the midst of 
 whom they spontaneously sprang up ; or such as celebrate heroes and heroic acts 
 during the Turkish domination and the war of the Revolution. On account of its 
 historical importance, as well as its martial spirit, I regarded the War-Song of 
 Rhegas as a fitting close to these strains of native poetry. The grace and gayety of 
 Christopoulos, and his delicate poetical genius, induced me to end the volume with 
 a few specimens of the anacreontic songs of this favorite author. The few notes at 
 the end are intended only to 'explain words and phrases which cannot be easily 
 .made out by one familiar with the Ancient Greek, and with some Modern Greek 
 Grammar. as that of Mr. Sophocles. 
 
 " The Greek, as spoken at the present day, is substantially the language that 
 was spoken in the Alexandrine and Byzantine periods ; but there are important dis- 
 tinctions between the ancient and modern, growing out of changes in the structure 
 no less than modifications of the meaning of words. Nearly all the words now em- 
 ployed by educated Greeks are the same that were used by their ancestors ; but 
 
 the grammar of the language is modern The book is intended to be read in 
 
 connection with the Ancient Greek ; and so reading it, the student will find few 
 difficulties, except in the dialectic peculiarities of the popular poetry, or the titles 
 of official and other persons, which belong wholly to modern history."

A TKEATISE ON LOGIC ; 
 
 Or The Laws ef Pure Thought. Comprising both the Aristotelic and 
 the Hamiltonian Analyses of Logical Forms. By FRANCIS 
 BOWEN, Alford Professor of Moral Philosophy in Harvard Uni- 
 versity. 12mo. Cloth. Price, $ 2.00. 
 
 From the Round Table. 
 
 " We can confidently pronounce this work to be scholar-like and thorough in its 
 character, and most honorable to the distinguished position and reputation of its 
 respected author." 
 
 From Zlon"-s Herald. 
 
 " As regards definition, clearness, and fulness of statement of the various points 
 which make a complete scientific treatise, we think he has succeeded in producing 
 a better text-book than any other before the American people." 
 
 From the JVeu> Englander. 
 
 " The plan of Professor Bowen is more comprehensive than that of Thomson, 
 Hamilton, or Wilson. The execution is in many respects deserving of high com- 
 mendation, as we should expect it to be, from the well-known ability, thorough- 
 ness, and industry of the author." 
 
 From the Baptist Quarterly. 
 
 " This work of Professor Bowen's presents the results of logical study, both in 
 ancient and modern times, within a comparatively small compass, and with great 
 discrimination and skill. He is thoroughly master of the science, and has digested 
 all that his predecessors have written; and from the diverse systems and opposing 
 theories lie has evolved a complete logical system, in which his own positive con- 
 tributions appear with no inconsiderable prominence and aid not a little in giving 
 completeness and unity to the result. It is a work requiring to be studied with 
 care and patience in order to arrive at the mastery of its reasonings and the full 
 comprehension of the science as unfolded by Professor Bowen. The work here un- 
 dertaken could hardly have fallen into more competent hands, and the volume 
 promises to stand pre-eminent among treatises of its class." 
 
 From the Bibliotheca Sacra. 
 
 "The present work is an index of the great progress which the science of Logic 
 has made, in this country and in England, during the last thirty years. Those 
 who studied Prof. Hedge's Logic forty years ago, will scarcely recognize the same 
 subject as it is treated in the present volume. The author has thoroughly studied 
 the science in its present state of advancement, has incorporated into his volume 
 what is common to the different systems, and reviews such questions as are still 
 unsettled. The book will at once take its place as the best text-book on the sub- 
 ject of which it treats.

THE GREEK HISTORIANS. 
 
 SELECTIONS FROM THE GBEEK HISTORIANS, 
 
 Arranged in the order of events. With Notes by CORNELIUS C. 
 FELTON, President of Harvard University. 12mo. Cloth 
 $ 2.00. 
 
 In this work the most famous events of Greek History are given from 
 different authors, chronologically arranged. In this way a complete course 
 of reading in this department can be pursued in one book, and the trouble 
 of changing from the works of one author to those of another in a great 
 degree obviated. The name of the late President Felton gives a sufficient 
 guaranty of the excellence of the selection, and it is enough to say that 
 the plan has been in every respect universally approved. To show the 
 extent of the ground covered, a list of the authors is given, together with 
 the subjects of the extracts respectively taken from them :

CHEMICAL TABLES. 
 
 By STEPHEN P. SHARPLES, S. B. 12mo. Cloth, pp. 192. Price, 
 $2.25. 
 
 The work was undertaken at the suggestion of PROF. WOLCOTT GIBBS, 
 of Harvard University, and was executed under his immediate personal 
 supervision. In reference to it he says : 
 
 " During the preparation of Mr. Sharples's work I have hart repeated opportunities 
 to observe the care and labor bestowed upon it. All the tables have been thoroughly 
 revised, and the proof-sheets repeatedly read. Whenever it was possible, the tables 
 have been checked by differencing. Of course it is impossible that such a work 
 should be free from errors, but I believe that but few will be detected. Upon the 
 whole, I think that a work so conscientiously executed and so extensive will be found 
 of real value to the working chemist." 
 
 From Prof. B. Silliman, Yale College. 
 
 " I have examined with much satisfaction the copy of Sharples's ' Chemical Ta- 
 bles," you were so goo.i as to s. nd me. The work evinces care and discrimination in 
 the selection and arrangement of the materials which cover a much wider range of 
 topics than can be found in any other manual with which I am familiar. This is 
 especially true in those departments of Chemical Physics, in which such rapid 
 progress has been made withiu a few years past, as to render Mr. Sharplrs's book a 
 most acceptable addition to the library and lal>oratory of every chemist, whether he 
 be teacher or pupil." 
 
 From Prof. S. H. Douglass, University of Michigan. 
 
 " I have carefully examined the work, and am free to say that I consider it one of 
 great value to the chemical student. Aside from new matter, it contains a large 
 amount of material usually distributed through a great number of works, and fre- 
 quently difficult to find at just the time the student wants, even if he has a chemical 
 library." 
 
 From Prof. O. N. Rood, Columbia College, N. Y. 
 "I have examined, with pleasure, the very extensive and valuable collection of 
 
 Chemical and Physical Tables which you htve lately published. 
 
 " Their use will save the time and trouble that are now expended in hunting down 
 
 the information contained in them through many volumes. 
 
 " They will be found indispensable to thuse engaged in the pursuit of these sciences." 
 
 From Prof. G. C. CaldweU, Agricultural College, Pa. 
 
 "To the work itself (Chemical Tables, by S. P. Sharpies) I am glad to be able to 
 give my hearty commendation. The idea was a capital one of thus bringing together, 
 in a small hand book, these tables, which are of great value to ih. chemist, and 
 which were scattered through many works, and not conveniently accessible to most, 
 and not at all accessible to some. The work just meets a want of my own. I shall 
 keep it always within easy reach on my table., and shall introduce its use in my 
 classes. I am confident that in whatever way I may busy myself with chemistry, 
 whether as a student or a practical chemist or a teacher of the science, I shall find 
 the work in question an exceedingly useful one." 
 
 From Prof. G. J. Brush, Yale College. 
 
 " I have examined the Chemical Tables with considerable care, and I consider the 
 book the most complete collection of the kind that I am acquainted with, and Mr. 
 Sharpies has done a good service in thus bringing together so much valuable matter. 
 The book shows careful editing, and will be invaluable to every working laboratory. 
 
 " I thank you much for you courtesy in presenting me with an early copy of the 
 work." 
 
 From Prof. M. Perkins, Union College, N. Y. 
 
 "I beg leave to thank you for Mr. Sharples's Chemical Tables, and take pleasure 
 in saying that I think them a very valuable collection, and shall take great pleasure 
 in recommending them to my own students working iu the laboratory. No practical 
 chemist should be without them "
