Barnes & Co., 51 John street, New York, pad sold by 3.lrs-
RA I' & STOEK, Lancaster. Theuttention of teachers and the
friends of Education generally, is invited to the following
educational works.
New and improved editions of several of these works
have recently been published. and the publishers will con
us to the most approved edition of their several Text-
Books, and thus provide a series of Slandered Books for
our Union School Districts and townships, that can be re
garded as s modern, uniform and permanent series, and
render entirely unnecessary those fre'iuent changes in
school books that have heretofore been so perplexing, ex
pensive and annoying to both teacher and pareol,
The list embraces some of the most approved Text-Books,
iu the various dopes-talents of study, viz: -
For Reading Books.—Parker's series are regarded the
most thorough by a multitude of the beat teachers. They
are adopted by the schools of Lancaster city.
For English Grammar.—S. W. Clerk's System is superse
ding the old Grammars heretofore published. His system
of diagrams - is the ne plus ultry for on. teaching.
For Spelling and Good Pronunciation.—No teacher will
Gail to appreciate Price's Spelling, Book, Wright s Orthog•
raphy. Martin'. Orthoepist, and Northend's Dictation En•
excises.
For Rhetoric, Oratory and Choice Rending.—Professor
Day's Art of Rhetoric is pronounced; by the best judges, as
being greatly in advance of every other work on this sub
ject.
Northend's Little Spoaker. American Speaker and School
Dialogues, and Zachos' New American Speaker, contain
tho choicest selection of pieces (oratorical, poetical and dec
lamatory) ever embraced in four volumes.
Parker and Zachos' Introductory Lessons in Reading and
Elocution, will be found a valuable hand-book for every
teacher and normal school student.

Professor Boyd, of Genova, has laid our Seminaries and
Academies under lasting obligations of the English Poets,
viz Milton's Paradise Lost, Cowper's Task, Table Talk,
&e., Thomson's Seasons, Young's Night Thoughts. These
works need only to be known to be appreciated. Pollock's
Course of Times is in press.

and Mitchell's Primary GeograPhy.) A more advanced
work on Geography, for higher classes, to follow 31onteith's
Manual, prepared by Francis will be published In
January, 1855.
For Arithmetic and Mathematics.—Professor Davies'
System is now regarded the National System, being the
standard Text-Books of the military accademies of the
United States, and most of the colleges throughout the
country. The Aritlunetics of Davies are tho foundation of
his whole series.
For Teaching Natural Philosophy. —R. G. Parker, au old
And experienced teacher of Boston, hat, prepared a work
entitled a 'Compendium of School Philosophy,' which is a
favorite book with all teachers who have used it. The old
books an Natural Philosophy, that have so long had, a
