webh,s Normal serics.

Numbers one, two, three and four OF this series
of Readers have been laid our table, by the
gentlemanIy agent, Mr.. 4. w. Price, Of Cleve-
land. In the primary numbers of this seiies, we
notice a new, and we think, m excellent feature.
AT the head of each reading lesson, is placed in
columns, all the words that occur in the Lesson
which the pupil is required to spell until the or
biography of each word is thoroughly learned
The pupil is also required to pronounce and to
enunciate. correctly and distinctly at sight, and
without hesitation, each word, before proceeding
to read. This, we think, is an admirable ar
rangement: aud must, in great measure. il not
wholly obviate the runous articulation which
some children acquire by drawing out one word
before making up their minds what 10 call the next.
In the preface to number two occurs the follow
ing truthful paragraph: This volume commences
with table of the elementary sounds and the
marks OF punctuation, in which SO many of our
scholars fail.
The selection of pieces we think judicious,
though perhaps not superior to many other series
now in use. The introduction Of music is also a
new feature, and will, we think, be pronounced a
very desirable one, by all who love cheerful faces
and harmonious sounds.
Tnere are some six or eight charts designed to
precede the Readers, which we do not hesitate TO
say, ought to be in every school room. We have
not lime space TO describe them. We we're
presented with several other new and valuable
books, which we will notice at another time.

myself and many others we're in company.
The doctor delighted in telling of the success

attributing Bob's advancement rather TO the
goodness Of Providence than that of The Mar
quis Of Downshire; and observed, most pa.
