MENT.

It is hoped that the following collection of Tamil Proverbs may be useful to those who are in any way connected with the interest ing people who speak that language. Examples of concise and for cible expression are hereby furnished, which may tend to aid in the study of the language, and occasional allusions to national, social, and religious usages may suggest heads of valuable enquiry, whilst the modes of thinking,-lhe natural shrewdness and other features of the Hindu mind will be seen through this medium. It is presumed that the translation generally conveys the sense of the original, al though not always with that force, nor with the elegance which might be desired. Should it be called for, a future edition may re medy some of the existing faults, and also supply the deficiencies, both as to the character of the translation and the number of the examples.
