NUTTING'S NEW GRAMMAR.-To the
Publishers of .Nmt,ing .Nt,o Grammar: Having
sttrntiveiy examined the New Grammar oi Ru-
fus Nntting, now publishing ! ca" 'tuiy say that
am happy to recommend IL, because IN so dong
| believe / subserve, as far as my opinion may
have weight, the interests OF popular education
in our state had always cons idered the former
Grammar by the same author equal, aud in ma
ny respects superior, TO any in use; and on com
pairing the present work with the old one, hnd
oil essential omissions supplied, and q large mass
of highly interesting and useful matter added,
which, il my opinion, nov makes il work bet
ter adapted TO the us, Of common schools
than any grammar extant ID. I. THOMPSON.
| Montpelier Sept "a, 1870
| have for several years adopted Nutting sys.
| TEN of English Grammar; and am prepared TO
say that in my opinion, il is greatly superior to
any now in use, not only as correct in the prn-
ciples Of the language, but as being adapted 10
the capacity of learners. Alter using most Of the
English Grammar now in use, have found that
! scholars make much more rapid progress in fol-
lowing this system tn n any other. The i'm rove
ments which distinguish it should not be consId-
cred bold aud injudicous innovations; they accord
with the opinions Of learned men in England
Scotland, and France, who have written on this
subject. This system ha. also been recommend
ed and adopted Tor many years in the schools OF
the N f. States and has been approved by many
distinguished profe ssors in the colleges.

From an experienced Teacher in Detroit Mich.
Prof Nutting.-l am exceedingly anxious
that your Grammar should be universally known
The more | use it the betierI like it, / have
used all of the other most popular system ms, but
without being able TO interest my school in the
subject, as ! wished. But during the past win
ter, with onIy one of Nutlngs Grammars, | have
had no difficulty in exciting such an interest as
has led to the happiest results; and pleased are
my class with the work, that they have written
several copies of it in fair hand, and use !! a.
their guide. w. A. BACON.
Extract of letter from ZADocK THOMPSON, dateo
Burlington, Nov. II, 1910.
Being engaged in teaching nj the time Mr.
Nuttings Grammar was first published. in 1896
and being satisfied by a careful examination oil
the work that il possessed decided advantages
over the Grammars then in use, introduced il
into my school imme diaiely: and after using il
constantly for more than eight years, found nc
reason 10 change my opinion of it. The copy o.
: the Grammar, in its new form, which you put
into my hands, has received only cursory exam
nation, hut sufficient 10 satisfy me that il is de
cided Improvement the original work. The
introductory lessons are a plan, which have
tested by my own practice, and can say from
experience that know il to be encellent.p articu
lary for young scholars. The changes and adj
dtons, in other respects, are judicious. and suel
as TO render the work decidedly superior to any
other Grammar with which am acquainted; nnt
> | think il might be introduced advantageous,
in all the schools in the State.
