Review from The Philidorian:....To the spectacled dowager, or the gouty old bachelor,-to miss near her teens, or master near his pinafore. -How could there be devised a better game? It teaches the child arithmetic, by a railroad process; and soothes the aches of age by its gentle exercise of the brain. Pasquin's Treatise, long out of print, was the best cribbage manual ever published; and in the little volume before us Mr. Walker has appended a good deal of interesting matter to a reproduction of the original. We may take another opportunity to draw upon this work for extracts. At p. 41, we turned up an error, which the publishers will thank us for pointing out, in order to its being corrected in a second edition. The author's words are, "A sequence of a six, seven, and eight, combined with a pair of aces, inclusive of a four card flush, yield thirteen points," &c....
