Pelten's Key to FON Series.,
Containing a minute description of each
state and country, the political and physical
features of the earth, &c., forming a complete
epitome of the whole subject. \V here these
I are used in connection with the maps,
no other work is necessary in the hands of
the pupil; and their cost is about one third
the usual price of a Geography and Atlas.
Wherever this system has been tried, it
has excited the admiration of all who wit
nessed it, and we might fill n volume with
the testimonials received in its favor. We
append but one.
Believing the introduction of Pelton's sys

his series of Outline Maps, into the schools of
our city, would enable the pupils to acquire
a better, more lasting, and more practical
knowledge of that science, than is general
