In this new work on an original plan, for teaching the rudiments of reading, the following are ?ome of its peculiar ièatures :

1. One letter of combination is presented at a lesson, and at the same time its elementary suund is taught.

•J. As fast a< the letters are learned, an application is immediately made, by using them gyntheticu'ly in fainiliar words.

3. No word is given, in which a letter occurs, that has not been previously learned, in the above synthetic method.

4. The capital letters are taught me at a time, and by review in reading lessons.

5. The plan of putting the letters. with their elementary sounds, together into words, by this original System of synthesis, it is believed will greatly facilitate the acquisition of words, and of letters and their powers.

G. The words are systematically presented in the synthesis, being clas.-ified by their vowel sounds and terminating consonant» ; and generally, at the end of each class, they are arranged into liitle spelling lessoris.

7. The learner is immediately initiated into reading lessons, composed of words of two or three letters. and is then led. pr gressively, into more difficult words.

8. The reading lessons are composed entirely of the words previously presented in the synthesis, or the spelling lessons.

9. The cuts are intended to illustrnte the reading lessons, to attract the attention of theyoung, and to sugge-t thoughts for oral instruction, and for conversation tochiidren.

10. The b »ok constitntes a Primary Spelling-book and Reader, — thus combining two books in one of 144 pages, adapted to families and schools.

The advantages of a System of application, by which the child is permitted to use the letters as fast as they are learned, by forming little words with them, and then by arranging thèse words into easy sentences, m est be obvious to every parent and teacher.

jît a Meeting of the County and Town Superinten dents of the County of Oreene, Oct. 27, 1846, It was unanimously Resolved, that we are favorably impressed with the method of teaching the Alphabet, and an early course of reading, as exhibited in the plan and arrangement of Wright's Primary Lessons — and believing that instruction in this branch of éducation will be mueh facilitated by the use of that work, we recommend ii to the teachers, and to those who bave children to be înst.iucted ; and add itto the list ofText Books recommended in this County.
