The Philadelphia school-officers have resolved to
eliminate all reading books from the public schools, and
substitute daily newspapers for the use of the schools. By

acquainted with "Congressional debates, state affairs,
wars and their causes, accidents, floods and fires, gre: t
public improvements, &c., subjects upon which the youtl -
ful mind will feed much more profitably than upon boast-
ful orations or pathetic fancy writing."
