In acquiring this knowledge, books are necessary, although in teaching, a teacher should not confine himself entirely to them, hut oral instruction shorfid he resorted tn. We hare a great variety of sys tems Of arithmetic in use, inn for the most part, they are not erattly what I think an arithmetic should he:— as relied in its juvenile state has to grapple with thin science, it should be made as interesting as possible. It should he devoid cf all extranenus,or irrelevant matter, --itiMplirity should be the principal remote. By sim plicity,' do not Intend mental calculations, figures of birds, apples, marbles, fkc.,--seeing little arithmetical knowledge can be rained. but by the use of the elate. The different rules should be stated as briefly as possi ble, and In language that the scholar, with a little help from the teacher ran easily comprehend. The exam ples under each rote should he as varied and as pram cal as possible. and the DECIMAL Et:tummy of our country, an far an the practical part is concerned, should prevail to the exclusion of oil others. lam prompted to these remarks by the appearance or a nem work no arithmetic. called the “Columbian Calculator;' by A. Tirknor of this place. This book meets my views of what an arithmetic should be, better than any 1 have ever seen. indeed I do not see much room or Improve ment. Mr. Ticknor has also lately published a small hook or nrithinettc for beginners, which In my opinion is admirably adapted as an initiation to this study, and will he the moat, popular work of the kind ever pub lished. The two together forming a complete system and better adapted to the use of American citizens than anything else. If rernitiniendat inns are any proof of enpe rtor merit, then sorely 11r. Ticknor's work stands unrivalled. for no work of the kind ran compote with it in this respect, either for numbers or weight.

It avoids both extremes. The questions are neither too puerile nor too abstruse. This hook is intended for youth, not for infants. It leads the,young tyro on step by step, inspiring him with confidence as he advance; and lays a foundation or; which he may erect the meet gigantic structure. It needs but to be carefully examinnl by the intelligent teacher to be appreciated, recommended and adopted. The ••Decimal Arithmetic," too, posses eta many saran tages over its predecessors. The questions, of which there are a treat variety are strirtly of a practical bud. neon character, and such as most frequently occur in the ordinary transaction AI of life. , The British Currency of pounds. shillines and pence being excluded. the tedimis and uninwruchre repetition of reducing farthings to Pounds and pounds to farthings, is not to be performed. thereby economizing much of the pupil's time without sacrificing any beneficial result. If, after the student has acquired a thorough practical knowledge of the science, In the beautiful decimal system of our own money, it becomes necessary for him to or. quint a knowledge also of the currency of other coon. tries, and the manner of changing it from one currency to another; that kacnardge can be acquired is a few hours when many months arts requisite for its sequialtion to hop hood.
