HAMILTON'S DICTIONARY OF 3500 MUSICAL TERMS. Forty-second Edition. 1s. CLARKE'S CATECHISM OF THE RUDIMENTS OF MUSIC. Thirtieth Edition. 1s. "These works are all favorites with professors, because they are favourites with the pupils. Few know how to write a book of instruction; but Hamilton did, because he knew thoroughly well how to teach. The extreme popularity of these works (as may be noticed from the number of editions they have passed through) has called forth many imitations; but everybody will like the original, or prototype, rather than the copy. The Dictionary is famous as the most copious and correct extant; and the little catechism is as clever as it is unpretentious."--Vide _Reading Mercury_, Oct. 22.
