The following will be sufficient for the pres
ent purpose. sa-~r
BROOKLYN SCHOOLS.
Having submitted "Stoddard's Intellectual
Arithmetic TO the practical test of the school
room, we have no hesitation in expressing a
strong preference for IT over all text Books
on the subject The author has taken de-
cided step in advance OF those who have
preceded him; and his labors are likely 10
do much toward popularizing a study, the
importance of which as a mental discipline
can hardly be over estimated. The works
formerly in use were efficient of systematic
arrangement, were neither gradual enough in
their transitions, nor sufficiently coDprshen-
sive and varied as regards their examples
Sloddard's on the other hand, is an eminent
ly practical book !; philosophical in it's ar.
rangemenl, natural and lucid in its analysis,
original in lis design, adapted at the COM
mencement 10 the apprehension OF begin
ners and carrying the pupil by easy induc-
i've steps through the most complicated oper.
alons il seems invuluetable TO criticism, and
leaves little or nothing to be accomplished
by future authors on this subject. The ex-
amples are numerous and varied, embracing
all cases likely 10 arse IN business /; ana
there are not less than fifty Isges OF ques-
tions capable of Algebraic solutions. The
Chapters on Percentage, interest and Dis
count, are worthy of special commendaion.
Ia these the author has an entire original
plan; which enables the pupil TO solve mem
tally, with perfect ease, questions which,
without this drilling, few are able to manage
even on the slate.
In view OF these striking and excellent fea.
lures, we warmly commend Prof. Soddard's
work to all who are interested in the eGuca-
ZION OF youth.
