AN EYCELLENT WORK

We have received, and carefully examined new
book by B. r. CARROLL Of Charleston, entitled A
Cateehism of Uuited Sfute. His.ory" 1t affords u,
pleasure to svsan opinion entirely favorable to it
merits Brief, accurate, and impartial in its state
msnt Of facts, it supplies deficiency in the school
room which hos long been felt but not before so COM
pletely remeded. 1t is not alone to be priced as
valuable accession to the school curriculum. It il
likewise work Of general utility. Even to one who
may be accomplished in tho knowledge of American
history it is valuable as means of vividy recalling
that knowledge Not only to tho teacher but also 10
the lawyer, to the statesman, to the editor to the
planter, to the mechanic, in act to overy man who
feels prompted to inform himself upon the subject Of
his counrys growth and progress it is calculated to
become most useful help.
We hesitate not to commend Mr.. CARRoLLs work
to the public, and particularly to the educational de-
partment Of that public. Its author here presents
himself in light of real usefulness, which morits
both tho applause Of lis fellow citizens and liberal
remuneration at their hands. Let every man procure
copy of tho Catechism of United States History y
and let it become O textbook in all our schopls.
We are gratifed to learn, by the Charleston ler-
cury that the Commissioners of the Free Schools for
those Parishes have passed the following resolutions
Resolred, That the Catechism Of United States
History, prepared by 3. Il. Carroll, Esq, DO adopted
text book in all the schools under the control Of
tho Commissioners Of Public Schools for the Parishes
Of st. Philips and St Miebpls.
We hope to hear of similar resolutions in evory
part of;our State.
