Boston: Crocker & Brewster, for the A. B. C. F. Missions, A. D. 1835. Here is a translation of Mr. Gallaudet’s popular “Definer,” with illustrations, in the Chippewa, which exhibits the pictorial mode of teaching, in a successful manner. The arts of design may certainly be employed, to a great extent, in elementary teaching to the natives. There is no indication of the translator’s name, or the field of his labors, which latter is only known to be in the great missionary area of the Chippewas of the Northwest. 24.—GEOGRAPHY FOR BEGINNERS. Abinoji Aki Tibajimouin; literally, News, or Information of the Earth, for children or youth. 1 vol. 12mo. p. 139. Boston: Crocker & Brewster, A. B. C. F. M. This volume has all the attraction of news and novelty for the natives, giving information about people and countries, manners and customs, which were before totally unknown to them. It is taken chiefly from the Peter Parley series. The system of orthography is precisely that employed in No. 24, which varies, in some respects, from the system of the A. Board, and is to be regarded as an attempt of the translator, whose name is not given, to amend it. The forms of Chippewa substantives ending in _ngk_, are provided for by a dash under the final vowels, thus _a̱_ _e̱_ _i̱_ _o̱_ _u̱_. As this _ngk_, or _ng_, the g full, is both the participial form of the verb, and the ablative or prepositional form of the noun, denoting, in the latter cases, on, in, or at, agreeably to its antecedent, the abbreviation requires to be carefully noticed. At page 88, at the foot of a wood cut giving the mode of travelling on sleds drawn by dogs, in Siberia in the winter, if the vowel _i_ in the word “peb_o̱_in,” signifying winter, should not be put in its full prepositional form in _ing_, or the vowel dashed according to the translator’s system, the word Siberia should certainly have its local ending in _ng_ or _ngk_; otherwise the reading of Bemadiz _i̱_ peb_o̱_in ima Siberia, is literally, In _travelling—winter—there_, (or _that_ place)—_Siberia_; and not, as the language permits—Travelling in winter, there (or that place,) in Siberia. 25.—A Chippewa Primer. 1 vol. 12mo. 84 p.
