ADDRESS. .IN an age when fuccefsful efforts have been made towards the improvemeut of lit art of Think an J wh;'n Analyjii has been discovered the umverla!, and iolc good method to improve all fcieiice»/,«nd revive iiutrudion in them, it may be a matter of atiomfhment that it has not been yet generally , mbraced,and rendered the familiar method of learning. The extraordinary rife and progrefsof Chymillry, within a very few years, are entirely due t« analysis; but there is an art on which it lhould have firft darted its beneficial rays, 1 allude to the 'Teaching of I.angvages. la fa&, Na ture, this excellent analyfl, wa. before our «ye» guiding children in learning the language of their i mother, and .110 ahild ever failed in acquiring it, profiting furprifiMgly by her unerring lessons Fully convinced by tea'oh and experience, thit the lame method she pursues fhonld he followed as neaily as poOihle, I adopted, in (;hc courts of my inflru&ions, such books ellaMiHicd on principles that lead deviate 1 from her simple di&ates. I soon perceived that the method acquired from thefeaid* was but a very inegular and imperfeft Analysis —l,therforc, rcfolved though with a very small confidence in my (lender abilities, but an Hunted with zeal lor the improvement of these who may wish tr> learn' French from me, to undertake the laborious and arduous talk of writing a work,groun ded or Analytical principle, which miflit com prehendwhat is wifhedf»r by thofeapplying them selves to the study of . the living languages, end am happy to fay, I have now nearly concluded it. It confittt.qf three parts The first, 19 acholen Votabulary of words most frsquently «fed infpeech, containining I,soo—the most natural acceptation of each is determined by a phrase prefixed to it. The second, contains the French verbs, both re gular and irregular, from a new fjstem in which the principal difficulties attending conjugation arc first explained, and observations giv?n on the use of each fenfe,-illustrated by proper examples, fa as to enable the learner to exprel* himfelt with precifioH. The third, is a complete list of those words fir •vant delicti ou de complement defens entre let autres parclct du dfcours: that is to fay—/irraiof the link or comple tion of sense between the other parts of fpeecb, whole principal use is to eitablilti in I'peech that connedti ,on between words, which already exists in the mifid between ideas. 1 haw also fully determined ' the sense and acception of these important words (which are divided into appropriate claftes to fix them the easier in the memory) by annexing to each examples in French and English. Aa Ido not intend to publish the above,for some time, and in order, nevertheless, that my pupils may reap the fame advantage without it, I hasten to inform those who may be induced to put them selves under my care, that half the time ofi'chool (the hall being devoted to other exercises) will be employed m exercising them in the fol lowing manner:— We firit btjjiu with the Vocabulary; each word of which will be pronounted in Englilh then ia French, to be repeated by one or more of the fcho • lars; and a similar.repetition of the phrases before mentioned will follow. It is worthy of obfe-vation, that in our infan cy, and as we advance in years, We learn the pro nounciation of our vernacular tongue, by pro nouncing word by word; and Analogy accomplic es what remains to be done, in order to acquire the ndceffaty knowledge of it. The rules given by Grammarians to attain this objeA are ainost useless to us, and still more so to the foreigners, struggling in vain to learn the true pronunciation of a iauguage with the help of diitionaries and Grammar alone. Though I conceive my scholars may attain in the above manner, the accurate pronouncia'ion of the French language, yet striil attention is paid to their reading in approved au thors before we begin the foregoing excrcifcs. I will pursue nearly the sam .' method in impart ing to them the «ont»nts of the two other divisions of my work. I cannot conclude this address with out thanking my Fellow-Citizen* for the liberal encouragement I have experienced from them, thefs (ix years past, in my profeffional career,pre fumir.g that I may be permitted to fay, that I have not been altogether undeserving of it.
