Cassell's New French Dictionary, Revised and Considerably Enlarged by James

Bolelle, B.A. (Cassell and Co., 'is. 6d, and 10s. 6d.), is in two parts, French-English running to five hundred and ninety-five pages, and English-French running to six hundred and sixteen. M. Bolelle prefixes some Prolegomena relating grammar and pronunciation, and gives a table of comparative weights and measures. We miss "Live," the French equivalent for the historian whom we call "Livy." The name has, we takE it, as much authority as ratite for " Tacitus."
