There are few who are intimately acquainted
with Arithmetic. imperfect knowledge
is easily traced to the imperfect mode .of
teaching; the pupils are hurried through the
lroOk wr thont 'acquiring knowledge of princi-
Ples. Arithmetical problems should' not be
solved ,by the machinery Of rules, but by, the
employment of Plain, reasoning .common
i;etise..,4 If he had not so ffequently seenit,he
poUld hardly be brptighti to believe that a
?Alliolar could do all the problems in a large
Arithmetic from mernory alone, and not (once,
daring the whole process,! appeal to the rea
soning poWers.- - This is ',not as it. shOuld be.
such a mode of study is very detrimental to
the pupil;
for as soon as s he is drawn from
the track he has beaten, he is lost, the :link
;plest problem being,suffierent to puzzle
:He then solved some problems, and recpnred
'the claim to do the 4aine. impressed[ up..
on the . lnstitute by; practical demonstration
:the necessity of correct discipline of-mind in
: thinking and reasoning. I Ills remarks Were
highly interesting sod instructive.

Prof'. Stoddard 'took up Geography, / and
said that the. reason why children were no Of

few . and simple, that. scholars should learn
these; and bear iu niind that there is, or should
be a mathematical exactness in the form amid

His remarks were very .instructive and-enter

Mental Arithtnetie.—Prof. Stoddard said

to the pupil. It is very frequently the case
that ladies who complain of having very bid .
memories, can re 'member - the hind of ribbon

This is probably because their attention is
