occupies a considerable pottion of-hts book, but
not more than its importance will juftify. We
would rcconimcnd to th£ young Arithmetician
to pay a particular attention to this branch.
He will find its principles Well explained. And
should he make himlelf mailer of them, he will

cannot bul congratulate the rifirig generation on
