TESTIMONIALS s
A Review, by Rev. D. WILLS, D. D,,
President of Oglethorpe University,
Atlanta, Ga.:
This valuable work, which has been anxiously
looked for. has recently appeared In a deoldedly at*
tractive and popular form. Its typographical anfi
mechanical execution reflects credit on the bouse
which boa Issued tt, and its convenient atea. soUM
binding, and hippy a rangement Into chapters and
sections, admirably > iapt it to the use of schools
and colleges. As a t ztbook. we predict for this
compand a hearty and extensive adoption, and aa a
work for general instruction, no reader in the i-mt
ought to be without a copy of it. The Southern peo-
[ pie may be justly proud of this noble ccntributkza
to their growing literature, aud the grand old ooura
moa wealth of Georgia will doubtless evince an ap
preciation of the Industry, patriotism and talents*bf
her distinguished son by giving this richly stored
volume a cordial welcome to the thousands of bar
ntelllgent and happy households. We believe tha
| this work of the gseet Georgian is destined to be
come the standard of historic truth and exoallanoa
for centuries to come, just aa Mr. Stephens’ work aa
the War Between the Stated ts acknowledged to be
the most complete and triumphant vindication af
the Southern people ever placed on record.
[From Rev. J. J. - BRANTLEY, D. D.,
Professor of Belles Lettres and Modern
Languages, Mercer University,Macon,
Georgia ;
I tnlnk you are tc be congratulated on having
brought out a School History, which, on account of
Its fairness, its Southsrn origin, and especially tha
I full ess and accuracy of the later political history of
the country, ought to supersede all others at tha
(South.
From Hon. MILLARD FILLMORE,
late President of the United states :
1 think it exceedingly well written, and admirably
well calculated for academies and schools. It is ne
cessarity greatly cond-nsed, but it seems to contain
I the pith and marrow of our history, somewhat
lnged, as was natural, with Southern views, but aa
Impartial as auy we can expect at this time, eithre
rom tne North or South. I regard Mr. Stephens aa
one of oar ablest statesmen, and certainly vary com*
| peteut to write a history of the United States.
From Hon. HERSCHELY. JOHNSON,
The method of the work is admirable. Each pic
ture is dlstmct; each is in >ts appropriate place; and
they are so connected aud grouped as to present to
the miud’s eye a clear, intelligible and harmouions
sketch ol tho history of the United States, from col
onial infancy to present development—accurate in
Us delineations, aud copious, oul slil' compendious,
in its details. The work is admirably suited to the
use of schools and the higher insticu tioi. s of learn
ing. It would bo unjust to omit to say that the
book, as to material, is gotten up in most excellent
style.
From Frof. RICHARD M. JOHNSTON,
of Peu Lucy Institute, Maryland :
I regard the Compendium of the HiBtory of the
United States, by Hon. Alexander U. Stephens, a
most Important addition to American literature. It
book for the Schoolroom, the College, the Uni
versity, and every library. Though severely oou-
deusod, yet it is most complete aud perspicuous. In
my opinion it is tho only history In which au Amt
ican, whether youth or adultinan, may find a jus
account of the basis ou which tho Constitution and
Government of his country worn founded. Evory
one. and especially every stunent, should have it,
[From Trof. E. A. STEED, of Mercer
Uuiversify :
Those Teachers in the South who have taught the
I History of tbe United States siuco the war will re
joice when they see this book. They will be espe-
i daily pleased with that portion of the History per
taining to the late war, because in this part of the
work they will find wfiat has not yet before met my
eye in schoolbooks: a air, unprejudiced statement
of facts CDDno ted with the bloody war between the
States. Southern youth can read In this book a
truthful history of our great struggle for tree gov
ernment by one who it. of all others, most compe
tent to write such a work. Let them read it, study
it, and heed its lessons of wisdom.

It Is s notorious fact that even in colleges little a
tention is paid to the philasophy of politics. *
Mr. Stephens supplies this knowledge. From th
discovery ot Columbus to the establishment o
American Independence, he carries tho reads
quickly and gracefully through all of the leading
v ents that transpired, developing tu ose facta in
•ilonial history which led to the organization and
►wth of the present form of government.

•In the treatment of these various subjects, Mr.
Stephens is not s partisan. He addresses his read
ers from a point of view for above the Influence of
passion or prejudice, and in the statement of facts,to
which he mainly confines his work, there Is an ex-
ibltiou of impartiality that forbids the question
hether this man who tbns summarizes the history
