Excerpt from M. T. Ciceronis Orationes Quaedam Selectae, in Usum Delphini: Cum Interpretatione Et Variantibus Aliquot Per Singulas Orationes Lectionibus; Quibus Praefigitur Vita Ciceronis Per Annos Consulares Digesta

Mnssns. Towan Hocan, I have had the pleasure of seeing the manuscript copy of mr.,j. G. Smart's transis tion of the Latin Notes, accompanying the Dauphin Edition of Cicero's Select Orations. With much satisfaction I state, that so far as my inspection of it, and comparison with the original, extended, (for time did not permit me to give it an entire perusal,) I con sider it to be accurately and neatly executed. The value of this edition, in the existing state of classical literature, will be greatly enhanced by the consideration of the follow ing fact, but too well attested by the experience ofmostjteachers, - That many of their plupils are too indolent,'not to say too ignorant, to peruse the Latinnotes for themselves. Oreove'r; we are beginning now to admit as ajtruth, what should always have been considered as axiomatic, viz. That all'flegos,'intr0tluctory to'an acquaintance with the dead languages, should be more plain, and more easily accessible, than those languages are themselves - ih other thing explaining should always be plainer, than the thingicfit'plained. I gentlemen,-i heartily wish you success in the edition you are publishing, and re main 'ver'y' respectfully,' Yours, Ste. Samuel B. Wylle, (l). D.) Philadehfifiia, July 24tb,'1826.
