Mr. Linley Murray's Grammar, with the Exercifes and the Key in a feparate
Tolume, I efteem as a muft excellent performance. I think it fuperior to any
work of that nature we have yet had ; and am perfuaded that it is, by much, the

On fyntax, in particular, he has
Ihown a wonderful degree of acutenels and precifion, in afcertaining the propriety
