Excerpt from The Common School Geography This geography, is a small book, beeause it con tains little or nothing that is perishable. Enough that is permanent may be found to engage the at tention of the most intelligent child during the portion of school days allotted to geography; and, with this basis, he is prepared to read and relish books of voyages, travels history, biography, 66c. 65c. The great, natural features of the globe, its continents, islands, peninsulas, mountains, oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, &c., are all' worthy 'of being learned. The boundaries of the nations, too, though often artificial, are sufficiently permanent to be learned, and so is the locationiof cities and towns.

Excerpt from The Common School Geography Lest the diminutive size of this Geography, compared with many others, should induce any one to think that it contains less than it ought, it is necessary to say a few words in explanation. In teaching any science, it is important to separate it as far as possible from every other science: but, inattention to this natural rule has so increased the size of our school geographies, that they have almost ceased to be useful. Thus the author of one popular text-book says, Most authors have extended the subject beyond its proper limits;" and he complains of "the introduction of extraneous matter into geographies," and yet he devotes about one third of his book to astronomy, meteorology, mineralogy, geology, and the statistics of religion, commerce, population, &c. &c. Another popular author tells us that his geography was first published in 1819. After two editions it was stereotyped or permanently fixed. Soon it was necessary to rewrite it entirely. After two editions, it was stereotyped or fixed again, and so, he adds, "it may be expected to remain, till a considerable change shall become desirable."

Excerpt from The Common-School Geography: An Elementary Treatise on Mathematical, Physical, and Political Geography The progress of geographical discovery, and the numerous changes, political and territorial, that are constantly taking place, have again rendered necessary a revision of this work. Advantage has been taken of this alteration of the text, to introduce into the book an entirely new series of finely engraved Copper-plate Maps, in place of those hitherto contained in it. The division and general arrangement of the Maps remain the same as before, although, wherever practicable, their scale has been somewhat enlarged; while a new, full-page Map of Great Britain and Ireland has been added. The new Maps have been prepared under the direct supervision of Mr. James II. Young, whose long experience and well-earned reputation in this department arc a sufficient guarantee of their accuracy as well as of their artistic finish. The addition of a greatly enlarged Pronouncing and Explanatory Vocabulary, and of two pages of Review Questions, will be found, it is believed, to be a valuable improvement. The Treatise on Map-Drawing, by Mr. E. A. Apgar, State Superintendent of New Jersey, explains a new and practical method of acquiring this important art. The following extract from the Preface to the first edition of the work will show its general plan and arrangement: - "The book consists of two parts. Part First contains lessons on the elementary principles of geographical science; Part Second, a description of the different countries. The lessons of Part First are not arranged in the usual form of question and answer. The principles are clearly stated in familiar language, and the lessons are followed by direct questions upon the text, and suggestive questions testing the learner's understanding of it. Part Second is arranged in chapters, which correspond with the maps. The description of a country is followed by a map of the same; on the page opposite to which are suggestive questions growing out of the text, and direct questions upon the map. The descriptions in Part Second follow a natural order. The position of a country is first given, then its surface is described, and the effect of these circumstances upon the climate, productions, and inhabitants stated. An account of the political divisions follows the description of the physical features, constant reference being made to the general statement of principles in Part First The arrangement of this part of the book in chapters will enable the teacher to assign to his pupils such length of lessons as he chooses." Acknowledgments arc due to many Educators, in various parts of the country, for useful suggestions kindly offered; and especially to Mr. P. W. Bartlett, late Master of the Chapman School, Boston, whose extensive geographical knowledge has contributed largely to the general accuracy of the work. In its improved form, it is hoped that the Common School Geography may commend itself to the Educational public, and continue to justify the generous support which has hitherto been extended to it.
