THE INTERROGATIVE OR INTELLECTUAL SYSTEM OF EDUCATION, BY QUESTIONS AND EXERCISES WITHOUT ANSWERS. TT is now about twenty years since the Proprietor IT of the under-mentioned Works submitted to the Conductors of Schools the first specimens of that series of improved Ele mentary Books which he bad phnncd for the purpose of facili tating the Instruction of Youth, and rendering the acquirement of knowledge at once pleasant, rapid, and certain. This System has since been known to the world uncles the do-, nomination of the Isriataonarive STSTEST ; and, as oppo s ieti-to some popular mechanical Systems, its Inventor his also defined it, by was of eminence, the THISKING or ISITLLECTUAL SYSTZS: —from the obligation to think, or mentally work on the subject of study, which it imposes en the pupil; and from the general improvement of the Intellectual Faculties, of which habitual mental exercise is anecesiary consequence.. This System, in the popular Works published under the names of Goldsmith, Blair, Barrow, Adair, &c. has been introduced into nearly every School of character in the British Empire, and has met with a degree of approbation far exceeding the ori ginal expectations of its author. The principle of teaching by Questions without Answers, which requires that the pupil should furnish answers to questions, often complicated, from the scat tered data of his book, demanded various preparations on the part of the tutor; but the publication of the Tames Key, con taining answers to above six thousand questions, has removed every difficulty in practice. Among the competitors of the Interrogative System, the re spected name of Pestalozzi has appeared; but it ought to be known that his Systein is precisely that to which. the public at tention is now invited, hut which was taught in England many years before the name of Pestalozzi in any manner transpired. Others have annexed questions to their books, and claithed kin dred merit; but, on ar: unhappy misconception of the principle, their questions accord in arrangeinent exactly with the order of the data to which they refer, and therefore afford no exercise to the intellectual faculties. Others, again, have so far mist ,ken the term " Interrogative System," as to obtrude on the public, under its sanction, a series of books on the obmlete plan of question and answer. While others have basely imitated both the inventor's plan and his books, and hare produced various superficial, vidgar, and inadequate, compilatinna, whose only re commendations have been their close imitation of his Title:pages, Types, Ornaments, and Bindings. As a means of protecting the public against all such artifices, and of supporting the,reputation of his series of Books, he has therefore judged it expedient to subjoin a COMPLETE LIST of these Olt I GINA WORKS: _ _ . ... 1.

Major-General 111S1.0e has published the following it 1 .. • •GENERAL ORDERS: CMOOLTILY PLAIN M ''AY V, 1818. 1 G. 0. By Majmegeneral Dyce. The following General Orders issued in Camp by the Corn- ' t Mender-in-Chief, are by his Excellency's orders, published to ..i the Many. - Head-Quarters of the Army of the Deckan, Camp at Era- . poor, Friday, lath March, 1818. G. 0. By the Commander-in-Chief. • His Excellency the Commander-id-Chief, has received the ft.odieial details from Brigadier-General Munro, of the attack and sneseriger of the fortress of Belem', Cn the 18th ult. to the . smiell, but gallant detachment of the Reserve of thii Army of the Dechell, under the Brigadier-General's command. The enterprising spirit which has marked the whole of the military °potations in which Brigadier-General Munro has been =I, reflects the highest lustre on that distinguished Officer's II I ;1 'Mal teal, and conspicuous ability. The present attack, unlertaben with so much promptitude and decision, has produced • it the unconditional surrender of the important citadel of Bedard, after the fort was gallantly stormed, without any considerable loss, an advantage which must be attributed, In a very great degree to tie timely and fortunate arrival of the reinforcements frets the Ceded Districts, without which addition to Brigadier- if.) st ' i / 11 42eneral )11hure's very inadequate force, the results might have lif 1 been-more glorious, but the loss more severe. 0 , Ills Excellency the Commander-in-Chief requests, that Major Newell, who has conducted the details of the Division of the 1 1 Reserve under Brigidler-General Munro's immediate cominaed, . / wileaccept his thanks and acknowledgments for the very able k ' and judicious manner in which he has conducted this, as well as / ! ' every previous service in which the detachment has been en- gaged. • His Excellency the Commander-iu-Chief also desires, ! that Captain Rose, of the 2d Battalion Otis Regiment, will at- .' cept his acknowledgments for the gallant and spirited manner he led the advance of the stornting-party into the fort of Badand; . .; the expression of his Excellency the Commander in-Chief's ap- . I t 1 i probation and applause, is also due to the tenant detachment oc I his :Majesty's 22d Regiment Light Dragoons (dismounted), the i i Flank Companies of the 2d Battalion 4th Regiment, the Flank Companies of the 2d Battalion 1 ation 9th Regiment, and the detach- mint of Madras Pioneers, for the admirable spirit and coolness 1 , , they evinced in the attack. " The Commander-in-Chief has received from Brigadier-Genes. cal Smith, commanding the 4th Division of the Army of the . Deckan, the o ffi cial details of the important success gained by '! 1 1• ' the troops under the Brigadier-General's commaral, or. the 28th e t / ultimo, at Ashtic, over the army of Bajeerow, and hit Ertel- 0 , . ~,.. leney hastens to record his admiration of the ability and entryga t t , which lave led to this most important result. It appears that after a most persegering pursuit, which the i il troops of the 4th Division kept up with exemplary cheerruinoss . . during a period of three months, their exertions were rewarded h I t t by coming up with the enemy on the above day. The opposi- tMn made by the Mahratte cavalry was brave and resolute, hut e . 1 . the successive charges made by our gallant cavalry soon com- I pelled them to fly in contusion, with the loss of about Zee men, • and a great part of their baggage. The death of their leader, teokrah, who fell in the te.ion, • ' and the rescue of his Highness the Itajah of Settara ' who, with 1 his family, is now happily under the protection of the Biltish e Government, arc among the more striking features of this bril- liant affair, and their importanceevill certainly be fully appre- ciated by e Most Noble the Governor-General. His Excellency lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Intim, bees 9 leave to tender his grateful acknowledgments to Brigadier-Macs. neral Smith, for the unceasing energy end high military ciee-ete. .. ter which have marked that Officer's proceedings duriee the . short but eventful period of hostilities with Bajcerow ; end his e , r , Excellency assures the Brigedier-General, that in the report of • F. ' the present affair, which will be- Immeetletely laid bef..re the s. Most ruble the Governor-General; it will be his Excelleec i 's endeeveur to do justice to Lis distinguished conduct.

' tiers, with the hieltest site eiction, the intrepid and well-timed el ;., charge made by the two squadron.' of his Majesty's 22d Ora- goons, under Major Dews s, by which the enemy were first ' roust el, and the no less „alterable conduct of the 2d :and 7rh I •': • .

' I very able and judicious manner he btought the Gallopers under i • his command into action with the cavalry. The important services of Captain 'Emery, Deputy Adjutant. I . 1 , General, and of Captain Mayne, Deputy Quarter-Master-Cc- ' neral, and the active zeal and promptitude of BrigadiereGenerel ' Smith's personal StaZ, Captain Ilerdeastle, Lieutenant Place • i and Lieutenant Billamore; have been brought• to his Feed- ;' i • lency's notice, in a manner which entitles them individually to - receive his Excellency's thanks and applause. The Commander in Chief has also much pleasure in offering 1 • • I ' l l " I - his best acknowledgments to Major Hull, Deputy Commissary- . General, whose excellent arrangements. foresight and assiduief, ' are represented by the Brigadier-General to have overcome ' many obstacles to the supply of the division during Its secant • II r . operations. i i The Paymaster of the 4th Division, Capt. James, the *Com- 't ` missary of Stores, Captain Griffiths, of the Bombay Artillery, ii • g and Mr. Superintending Surgeon Phillips, are also entitled le i • e the Commander in Chief's praise end acknowledgments, for the I efficiency which has prevailed in their respective departments. r ) The Fort of Singher having surrendered to Brigadkr.Geee. i • r cal Pritzler's detachment on the ad instant, his Excellency the 2 Collllll.lll.ter in Chief congratulates that Officer and tine ilt:eat . 1 I d h troops uneer his command, en the possession of so etrong e fore L .' tress with w little loss. 1 The able and judicious arrangements made by Brigadier. 1: ' t General Pritzler, fur conducting the operations of the siege, I reflect the highest credit on that Officer's military character, 1 and the Commander in Chief requests the Brigadier-Genera to I,f I , • I l. he assured, that he will report his high estimation of the serelees .
