Hora Sabbatica; or, an attempt to correct certain superstitious and vulgar errors respecting the Sabbath. By Godfrey Higgins, Esq. of Skellow Grange, near Doncaster.

Mr. Mitchell, the Translator of the Grammatical Parallel of the Classic and Modern Greek Languages, reviewed in our Journal, volume thirty-one, is occupied on a Work, which might be truly valuable, if Greece should consummate her independence; entitled the Hellenist and Traveller's Lexicon ;' to combine the Languages of Ancient and Modern Greece. It is not his intention by this, to confound the Languages: they will be held distinct. Words and phrases purely Hellenic will have no distinguishing mark-those common to both Languages will have a double cross-and those purely modern a single one. Moreover, those corrupted or modern, will be traced to their primitive signs. If of Hellenic origin, the mutations by which the modern terms have been attained will be shown; if derived from modern Languages, they will be referred to their primitives respectively in those Languages. Mr. Mitchell has, moreover, ready for the press, a Translation of Darvan's Grammar of the Modern Greek, of 440 pages; referring, under every rule, to the classic Language; comparing the Grammar progressively, containing an Alphabetic List of the Corrupted Words, and Idiomatic Expressions of the Modern Tongue. This Work will be most valuable to such as wish to be thoroughly initiated into the existing Language of Greece.

A Vocabulary, on the plan of one highly celebrated of the English and French Languages; of the French, Italian, Modern Greek, and Russian."

A Vocabulary on the same plan, English, Latin, Ancient and Modern Greek.

A Collection of Dialogues or Conversations in English, Italian, French, and Modern Greek.

A Collection of Commercial Letters, in the same Languages. The Flowers of Virtue, in English, French, Italian, and Greek. Two highly sentimental and humorous pieces, in Modern Greek and English, page for page, originally from the German of Kotzebue: rendered into Greek by a Native; and into English by the above Translator. The free and easy language of Comedy is perhaps the most appropriate for eliciting the peculiar characteristics of a language.

The Lyric Pieces of Chrystopoulo, styled the Modern Anacreon; his Language paraphrased, as far as possible, in English metre, abiding by the sense of the original.

The whole of the above are intended to be published by sub

scription, and he will bestow his earliest attention to such as appear to be most likely to meet with encouragement.

Of the Lexicon he has completed twelve pages as a specimen, which may be seen at Messrs. Black and Young, as well as the critiques, that have appeared in the several reviews on the Grammatical Parallel.
