Paperback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from The Georgics of Virgil: Translated by William Sotheby, Esq. IN reprinting this beautiful version of the most classic poem of antiquity, the American Editor has been par ticularly attentive to rendering it acurate. A number of errors in the London edition have been corrected, and except in two or three instances of misplaced apostrophes, which were discovered too late for alteration, he hatters himself that it contains no inaccuracies of any importance. In consequence of omitting the Latin, it was found that the Georgics alone would scarcely furnish suflicient mat ter for a handsome duodecimo volume, which induced the Editor to add Mr. Murphy's translation of the Bees from the Przdium Rusticum, a celebrated georgical poem by Jacopus Vanierius. As this contains a truer history of the polity and manners of those surprising insects than was known in the time of Virgil, it is hoped it may prove an acceptable addition to those readers who feel an interest in this subject.
