DEAR Satisfactorily, ! received,
through the postoiilce, two pamphlets !;
one entitled Robinson's Full Course
Of Mathematics" the other, Reading
and Elocution." by G, w. Sanders,
A. NJ, and J. N. McElliot, LII. D. 81.
1t is the object of both of these au-
thors to introduce their works into the
schools of this State. l am somewhat
familiar with (" Robinson's Practical
Arithmetic" and qnite familiar with
Sanders series of Readers, also San
ders' Spellcr )" and l have no hesita-
tion in saying they are commendable
works, highly creditable to their au'
thors. While Imight prefer the Read
ers in some respects to McGuffy's.
think Rays System Of Mathematics
is generally as good as Robinson's.
My object. however, in pennins
these lines is. to caution the people OF
this county against any change in
their text books. .Unyormity should
be the paramount object. No teacher
alone. nor any other individual, should
be allowed to disturb our present sys-
TEN Of text books. If any change be
desirable it should originate with the
State Department. Our people are
migratory. and should they move from
one county to another in our own
State, at least, they ought to find the
same text books and | for one am
prepared to maintain. they ought TO
find the same general regulations in
regard to conducting common schools
Teachers and scholars all over the
State should use the same text books.
Teachers educated in Eastern States
undoubtedly prefer their own books.
