Le Bouquet LitteTaire, a compilation by the late Professor VENTGUILLAC,

is published by his widow, and dedicated to the Dutchess of SUTHERLAND, as a last legacy from her husband, and a tribute of gratitude from his survivors. The work itself involves no opinion of literary merit; being merely a recueil of maxims and moralities from various French authors, many of which are far from new. The name of the compiler will assuredly recom- mend this little book ; but such a one, in the present day, was neither original in its plan nor absolutely necessary. As a relic, however, of an indefatigable friend to the young and studious, it may find a place on the shelves of every school library.
