J R Ballantyne's Sanskrit Work: nyaayasuutrakaumudii

[gruenendahl]

At a closer look, it seems that the book in question could be:

Pandit Sukh Dajal Shastri (ed.):
Nyaya Kaumudi synopsis of science by Dr. J. Ballantyne, LL.D., in
Sanskrit.
2nd ed. Lahore : Panjab University 1885.
311 pp., 24 x 17 cm.
If the latter data do not match your book, it could be one of the
other editions of the same work. (See India Office Lib. Cat.,
Sanskrit books, vol.2, part 1, section 4, p. 2687)

To my knowledge, Ballantyne did not publish a similar book on
Samkhya. However, he edited various booklets on the subject for use
in the Benares College.
You can find these if you search for "Ballantyne, James Robert" in
the Karlsruher Virtueller Katalog

(click "Gemeinsamer BV" and "Library of Congress")

or directly in the Göttingen OPAC:
