connected with typical interpretation, as types are prophetic of their antitypes. But the interpreta tion of prophecy opens such a field of investigation, and involves so many important considerations, that it must be reserved for another season.

END OF PART III.

CUMMINGS & HILLIARD, at No. 1, Cornhill, Boston, and at their Bookstore in Cambridge, have lately published the following valuable works, viz.

CUMMINGS' GEOGRAPHY & ATLAS.

THIS introduction to Ancient and Modern Geography was first published in May 1813, since which (now eighteen months) about 7000 copies have been disposed of. It has received the decided approbation of the best judges, and has been introduced into the first schools and academies in Boston, and most of the other principal towns in New England. Several hundreds have gone into the Middle States, especially into New York, where the demand for it is fast increasing. As farther recommendation it may be stated, that scholars will hereafter be examined in Ancient and Modern Geography according to the plan of this work, for admission into Harvard College at Cambridge.

This Geography is accompanied with an Atlas of eight Modern and four Ancient Maps, bound either together, or separate, as may best suit the convenience of scholars and teachers.

CUMMINGS' TESTAMENT.

N. B. Cummings & Hilliard have just published an edition of the New Testament in a clear, plain type, with an Introduction, giving an account of the Jewish and other sects; with Notes, illustrating obscure passages, and explaining obsolete words and phrases; to which are added Rules for pronouncing Scripture Proper Names, a catalogue of the Proper Names in the Testament correctly accented according to Walker, and four maps of the countries, through which our Saviour and his apostles travelled; for the use of Schools, Academies, and Private Families.

VALPEY'S GREEK GRAMMAR.

Cummings & Hilliard have also just published the first Amer. ican edition of Valpey's Greek Grammar, a work in great estimation, and extensive use in England, and which in the opinion of good judges is better calculated for general use, than any before published in this country. The arrangement of the Grammar is simple, the Syntax is full and particular, and much light is thrown on the subject of Accents and derivation. There are added an explanation of grammatical terms, and a Synopsis of parsing, designed early to initiate the learner into a correct and regular mode of parsing each word, without constant application to the instructor for direction.
