The rage for passing the honeymoon in a balloon appears to be on the
wane in this country. The reason for this may be that a majority of
those who enter wedlock find they "go up" soon enough without the aid of
a balloon.

The two great objects of a learner's ambition ought to be
to speak a
foreign language idiomatically, and to pronounce it correctly; and
these
are the objects which are most carefully provided for in the MASTERY
SYSTEM.
The Mastery of Languages;
OR,
THE ART OF SPEAKING LANGUAGES
IDIOMATICALLY.
BY THOMAS PRENDERGAST.
I. Hand-Book of the Mastery Series. II. The Mastery Series. French. III. The Mastery Series. German. IV. The Mastery Series. Spanish. PRICE 50 CENTS EACH. From Professor E.M. Gallaudet, of the National Deaf Mute College. "The results which crowned the labor of the first week were so astonishing that he fears to detail them fully, lest doubts should be raised as to his credibility. But this much he does not hesitate to claim, that, after a study of less than two weeks, be was able to sustain conversation in the newly-acquired language on a great variety of subjects." FROM THE ENGLISH PRESS. "The principle may be explained in a line—it is first learning the language, and then studying the grammar, and then learning (or trying to learn) the language."—Morning Star "We know that there are some who have given Mr. Prendergast's plan a trial, and discovered that in a few weeks its results had surpassed all their expectations."—Record. "A week's patient trial of the French Manual has convinced us that the method is sound."—Papers for the Schoolmaster. "The simplicity and naturalness of the system are obvious."—Herald (Birmingham.) "We know of no other plan which will infallibly lead to the result in a reasonable time."—Norfolk News. FROM THE AMERICAN PRESS. "The system is as near as can be to the one in which a child learns to talk."—Troy Whig. "We would advise all who are about to begin the study of languages to give it a trial."—Rochester Democrat.
