SCHOOL BOOKS!Adopted by the Brooklyn Board of

EDUCATION.TO BE USED IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

following books were adopted by the* Bnatd al ibeir regular meeting, February

6th, 1856.Stoddard's Arithmetical Series, by John F.

Stoddard A. M. President of the Universityof Northern Pennsylvania. Comprising

Tne Juvenile Menial Arithmetic 124 els.,72 pp. for Primary Schools, to precede

The American Intellectual Arithmetic 164pp. an extended work, designed lor CommonSchools, Seminaries and Academies, 20 cts.

Stoddard's Practical Arithmetic half bound,which embraces every variety of exercisesappropriate to written Arithmetic, 40 cents.

Stoddard's Philosophical Arithmetic, ahigher work for Colleges and advanced class-es in Union Schools, Seminaries and Acadernies, 60 cents.

A whole vnlume of Ihe most exalted recommendations of this series of Arithmetics,from the best Educators in all sections of thecountry, who hsve used them, can be shown.The following will be sufficient for the pres-ent purpose.

BROOKLYN SCHOOLS.Having submitted "Stoddard's Intellectual

Arithmetic to the practical test of the schoolroom, we have no hesitation in expressing astrong preference for it over all text Bookson the subject. The auihor has taken a de-cided step in advance ol those who havepreceded htm ; and his labors are likely to

do moch toward popularizing a study, theimportance of which as a mental disciplinecan hardly be over estimated. The worksformerly in use were dificient of systematicarrangement, were neither gradual enough intheir transitions, nor sufficiently comprehen-sive and varied as regards their examples.?Stoddard's on the oilier hand, is an eminent-ly practical book ; philosophical in its ar-rangement, natural and lucid in its analaysis,original in its design, adapted at the com-mencement to the comprehension of begin-ners and carrying the pupil by easy induct-ive steps through the most complicated oper-ations it seems invuluerable to criticism, ant!loaves little or nothing to be accomplishedby future authors on this subject. The ex-amples are numerous and varied, embracingall cases likely to arise in business; andthere are not less than fifty fages ol ques-tions capable of Algebraic solutions. TheChaptets on Percentage, interest and Dis-count, are wotthy of special comm'endation.In these the author has an entire originalplen ; which enables the pupil to solve men-tally, with perfect ease, questious which,without this drilling,few are able to manageeven on the slate.

In view ol these striking and excellent fea-tures, wo warmly commend Prof. Stoddard'swork to all who are interested in the educa-tion of youth.

Signed by ten principals of the BrooklynPublic Schools.

Munro Collegiate Institute,Elbridge, Onondaga Co., N. Y., Jan. 21. '55.

Messrs. Sheldon, Lamport & Blakeman:?Gentlemen?l examined Ihe copies of Stod-dard's Series of Arithmetics, with which youkindly furnished me in July last, and was sowell pleased with the result of that examina-tion, that at the opening of Ihe Fall Term ofthe Institute I introduced the Intellectualand ihe Practical, and al the commence-ment of the Winter Tetm, the Philosophical.The result has far exceeded my expectations.They have triumphantly passed that mostsearching of all tests for school books?theclass and the recitation room. Each book issuperior in :ts kind and for the purpose forwhich it was designed: and taken togetherthey constitute Ihe most perfect Series ofArithmetics that I have ever seen. I canhonestly, as well as earnestly commend themto the attention of teachers and others inter-ested in Ihe promotion of this important study.

I have examined said Readers with con-siderable care, and am therefore prepared tosay, that I should be much gratified withtheir introduction into our schoolr. At leastone or more new series of readers ought inmy opinion to be immediately adopied forour use by the Board of Education, and Ibe-lieve none would more generally please the jteachers of our school, or tend to interest andedify their pupils or lead to more satisfactoryresults than the series under consideration.
