TIIL INTERROGATIVE OR INTELLECTUAL
SYSTEM OP EDUCATION,
BY QUESTIONS AND EXERCISES WITHOUT
ANSWERS.
TT is r.ow about twenty years since the Proprietor
2- cf this under-mentioned Works submitted to the Corauctors
of Schools the hrst specimens of that series of improved Ele-
mentary Books white he had planned fur the purpose of facili-
tating the Instruction of Youth, and rendering the acquirement
of kuowleelge at ones pleasant, rapid, and certain.
This System has tine been known to the world under the &-
nomination of the LITILAO.UTIVE Srsar.st ; and, as opposed to
some popular mechanical Systems, its Inventor has also defined
it, by way of eminence, the TR:et:leo or Itrarttraertoir. Sversoe
—from the obligation to think, or mentally work• on the subject
of study, which it imposes on the pupil; and from the genera/
improvement of ties intellectual Faculties, of which habitual
trnanal exercise is a necessary consequence.
'lbis System, in tht popular Wurks published under the name
of Goldsmith, Blair, Barrow, Adair, etc. 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 Ara.wers, which requires that the pupil should
furnish answers to question:. 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 resnuved
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 System is preciutly that to which. the public at-
tention is now iuvited, hot which was taught in' England many
years before the name of Pestalozzi in any mamma trampired.
Others have aunexed questions to their books, and claimed kin-
dred merit; but, on an unhairpy misconception of the principle,
their qtr•liions accord in arrangement 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 mistaken
the term " Interrogative System," as to obtrude on the public,
under its sanction, a series of books on the obsolete plan of
question and answer. While others have basely imitated both
the Locator': plan and his books, and have produced various
superhrial, vulgar, aid inadequate, compiletinns, whose orly re-
'conuneudations have been their close imitation of his Mae-pages,
Types, Ornaments,,and Bindings. • .
As a means of prutecti:'g ter public against all such artifices,
and of supl,wting the reputation of his series of Books be has
therefore jueged it expeatent to subjoin a COMPLETE LIST
of these ORIGINAL W tEI KS :

The Spanish Ambassador has been constantly play-

commence; but he lits constantly interposed topics
which admit.of endless difficulties, whici: he knows
cannot be settled.by any treaty, and which must be
determined only by the progress of population a cen-
tury or more from this time.
Our Administration, instead of bringing him to an
explicit decision on_ a single point, enters into this
endless and fruitless contest; and The Spaniard thus
gains his object, while our great Statesmen fold their
arms, consoled by the conviction, that although they
have not [cot Florida transferred, they have neat the
Don both in length and strength of argument! But
while this rhetorical triumph thus consoles weakness
and vanity, the vanquished is sneering without dis-
guise, at his sticcessinl diplomacy and he accom;
plashes his secret purposes, and the substantial de-1
feat of al) our measures! Meanwhile our Admini-
stration is driven from one expedient to ar.,.ther, and
at every step sinking deeper in folly and sacrifice of
treasure and characcet, and public right ; in tead of
a manly steady course, which the cause and the coun-
try would justify, the system of imbecility, aad my-
stery, and littleness is pursued. Let us now pass the
course of events in review concisely..

The Patriots are first encouraged to occupy Flo-
rida; possibly with the view to bring on the erissp.
which would compel Spain to a Surrender of the
territory to the United States.
The Spanish Minister anticipates this; and seeks
to commit the Administration on the subject of arms
and armaments.

At the same time 'the Government knows that the
Spaniih Minister is fitting mit ships at Boston, New
York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and that he not
only embarked arms, but engaged naval officers and
seamen to man theme and it is a fact that those
American ormxas and SEANIEN are at this moment
on board of ships built in the United States, and now
commissioned and acting under Ferdinand VII.
fighting the battles of Tyranny and the Inquisition,
against Liberty and Independence. We repeat it,
Americans have been found capable of entering into
the service of Despotism, and are now engaged there-
in x and this while the Spanish Minister has been in
conjunction with, and instigated by the British Mini-
ster, bearding the American Government---and while
England is sending her veterans, her arms, her
treasure, to support that cause which we have aided
Spain-in the attempt to destroy.'
The Patriots proceed, assured at leas. of the neu-
trality of the American Government.
Citizens of the United States attached to the Ad-
ministration then and now, furnish copies of Maps
to one of the Patriot Generals, and assures him that
the Government wishes him to be prompt in taking
Pensacola.
Toledo's discoveries change the whole scene.
The American Government is threatened by the
Spanish Minister, with the developement of Toledo's
discoveries, and the dispatches which he had placed
s' in Onis hands.; and charging the American Go-
vernment with the responsibility.
The combination 6f foreign Ambassadors unite in
menaces—and the Holy Alliance is brought to bear
with its fulminations ; the refusal to accept the B: i•
tish mediation, is brought forth as evidence of con-
nivance at the invasion, and the Government is ac-
tually thrown off its balance.
- Using these loci Tents, and seeing that the trepida-
tion produced may be made subservient at once to
the policy of England, and of Spain, that it would
be preferable to Spain, that the United States should
possess Florida, than the Patriots, because thereby
the plans to which Florida was intended to be made
subservient, would be arrested, and, as it actifally
happened, utterly defeated ; that a transfer of the
Province, and an hostility produced between the
Americans of the South and the North, would serve
the views of England in monopolizing South Ame-
rican commerce, and excluding United States' corn-
• petition; the means were taken to plunge the United
States into hostility, and with success.
The British Minister, the policy of whose Govern-
ment had hitherto been to hold Florida, like Canada
in former times, as a rod over the United States,
now connived to signify its assent to the occupation
of Florida by the United States.
The Spanish Minister at the same time intimated
the disposition of his master to cede; but, as we have
repeatedly stated, with the sine qua non, that in order
to sustain the dignity of the King's august character,
the rebels, who were alledgesi to have armed and
equipped their force in the United States, should be
first expelled.
The bait was swallowed, and the steps taken that
produced the law of dd March, 1817.
Where are me noloy after all this machiavelian, this
ignoble, and unworthy, and imbecile policy ?
The land in fee-simple is alienated from the King
of Spain—it is on sale by the Agents of those to
xvhom it was transferred by the advice of Don Onis;'
and after procrastinating negociation, and baffling
every attempt to close the negeciation by a treaty for
the transfer of Sovereignty, which was the condition
of expelling the rebels; after the Agents of the United
States' Government have been lavishing volumes of
calumny, and bringing into question the ITitintacy
• tg. the Agents of the Southern States—the Spaniard
laughs at our cullibility, and our merchants are now
left to seek remuneration for their plundered pro-
perty from their own Government. The question
219 W is brought to this point—that the adored Ferdi-
nand, by his Minister, insists absolutely and simply,
and as his final resolve, on the proposition, con.,
tamed in the letter of the Secretary of-State of thelfith
Jastuary, 1818, which is in these words:

Spain shall be ezoneratedfrons the payment ?fall
Me debts, or any part of them."
And for this, what does Spain offer? Why she
oilers the Sovereignty of Florida, after the soil is
given away to persons in fhi secret. We defy the
art of man to refute this narrative ; the facts are
thou and tongued; and theGovenunent is well aware
that we arc possessed of the evidence; for we have
repeatedly and unsought communicated to the Go-
vernment important information on those sullects.
Here we have a history of Statesmanship that ,

baffles in imbecility, futility, and folly, any thing
that can be found in diplomatic annals.
Thus the United States *ill be saddled with the
debt to her own Citizens, and not 'an acre of land
will remain to reimburse the Treasury for the assump-
tion of the debt.—( To be continued.)
