ADDRESS.
IN an age when fucctfsful efforts have been
made towsr Is the imfrovemeut of the art of Think
ing, and when Analyjls has been difccvered the
univerlal, and lole good method to improve all
Icir-rces, and receive in t em, it may
be a matter of a!Tonilhment that it has not been
yet generally mhraced, and rendered the familiar
method of learning The extraordinary rife and
progrefsof Chyr. i'.try withi'i a very few years,
are entirely due t.? analysis; but there is an art on
which it fhuuld have firll darted its beneficial rays,

pit filing furprifmgly by her unerring lessons
Fully convinced by reason and experience, thit
the fame method (he pi/rfuet (hould be followed as
nearly as poifible, I adopted, in thr courfd of my
indruflions, such fcooks eitabjiflied cn principles
that leafl deviate ! from her fimplediaatei. I soon
perceived that the method acquired from t v .efe aids
was hut -a Ttry i-regular and unpcrfe& Analysis
—I, thrrforj, rcfclvcd though w.t, a very ftnall

ded or Analytical principle, which ©icht-com
preh-nd what is wilhedfs?r'.-v those iag them
felve* to the lla»iy of the living l4ngu'iges, and
am happy to fay, I have now nearly concluded it*
it coni'ifis of ri:ree parts. Jk
The first, is a chosen Vocabulary of words most
frtquer.tiy used infpeech, ccntainii.fcig 1,503 the
mo«t natural acceptation 0 J each is determined by
a phrase prefixed to it.
The second, contains the French verbs, both re
gular CTid irregular, fnm a new Astern in which
the principal dirHciUfies attending sonjuijutlnn are
fir»t explained, antroMervations onjhe use
of each sense, illustrated by proper examples, so
as to enable the learner to exprels himfelf with
precifr-K.
The third, is a comple' • list of those words fer.
vant Je tier, mJe 1 .viplemcnt depre entre les autres parelet
da difcr.t r: ; that i- to f.".y —firming the link er cample
ticn tfftnfe beixote* the other parti as fpeecb, whose
principal use is to establiis in fpetcii that connexi
on between words, which a'ready exists in the
r.'iid between ideas'. 1 haw also (nHy determined
Ihe sense and acception of th fe important words
(which are divided into appropriate cUsses to Lx.
thrm the e .;ier in the memory) fcy annexing to
each ex 3 r.ples in French and Englifti.
As I do net intend to pafclilh the abpvc.for some
time, and in order, aeverthclef , that my pupils
may reap thefame advantage without it, I hasten,
to inform rhofe who may be Induced to pur them
felvcs'under my care, that half the time of school
(the oths r half bci g devoted to other exercises)
will be employed in exercising them in the fol
lowing manner:—
We first begin with the Vocabulary; each word
of which will ' e pronounced in Enghfh then ia
French, to be repeated by one or more of thefcho
tar-; and a fiTiilar repetition of the phrases belore
mentioned will follow.
It is worthy of oMe-vation, that in our infan
cy, ar.d as we advance in years, we learn the pro
nonnciation of our vernacular tongue, by pro
nouncing word by word j and Jna'tgy accom jdilh
es what re.nains to b- dotie f in order to acquire
the necessary knowledge of it. The rules given
by Grammarians to attain this objeft are a most
ufeltfs to us an 1 still more so to the foreigner*,
[ struggling in vain tolearri the true pronunciation
of a laugu.'ge with the help of dictionaries and
Grammarttlotie Fm ugft I conceive my scholars
may attain in the ab ve manntr, the accurate
prono: ncia'ion of the Fr nch language, yet stria
attention i» paid to their readiug i 1 approved au
thors before we begin the for«go. ; »g exercises.
1 will \jurfue nearly tbefnn< method in impart
ing to thetn the eontsnts of the two othej divisions
of my work. I cannot conclude this addrefswith
out thanking my Fellaw-Citiz-ns for the liberal
encouragement 1 hav« expert-.nced from them,,
thefsfix years past, in my profefiional career,pre
fumir.g that f may be permitted to fay, that I have
not been altogether undeserving of it.
