Every man of business' must recollect how much he had to unlearn in the practice of Arithmetic, when
having left school be first entered into the commerce of life, and also how little he had learnt which
was strictly applicable to real transactions. The present System of Arithmetic, disregarding the fetters
of its predecessors, has consulted alone the actual and prevailing occasions for the exercise of this
useful art. Every branch of trade and manufacture has been sedulously consulted in the new exem-
plification of the various Weights and Measures; every thing, obsolete or useless in other books of
Arithmetic has been expunged; and every thing has been introduced that is essentially necessary.

The following are the peculiar and superior features of this Arithmetic.
'1. The Tables of Weights and Measures, corrected throughout, and adapted to modern usage.

2. Obsolete and seless Rules expunged, and a much larger portion applied to Stucks, Esiates, Anbuities, Discounts, Reversions, Tontines, Banking, Insurancies, Krokerage, Chances, Exchanges, &c. &c. as practised by the Brokers and Commercial Companies of the City of London.

3. More Examples under each Rule than are to be found in any other work.
4. Logarithins applied to calculations of Annuities, Compound Interest, &c.

“ Natural History is a study particularly suited to children; it cultivates their talents for observa. tion, applies to objects within their reach, and to objects which are every day interesting to them." Edgeworth on Practical Education.

"It is to be regretted that Buffon, with all his excellencies, is absolutely inadmissable into the library of a young lady, both on account of his immodesty and impiety. Goldsmith's History of Ani. mated Nature has many references to a divine Author; and it is to be wished that some person would publish a new Edition of this work, purified from the indelicate and offensive parts." Miss More's Strictures on Female Education.
