I HAVE read DABOLL'S SCHOOLMASTEr's Assistant, The arrangement of the different branches of Arithmetic is judicious and perspicuous. The author has well ex. plained Decimal Arithmetic, and has applied it in a plain and elegant manner in the solution of various questions, and especially to those relative to the Federal Computation of money.

I HAVE run through Mr. DABOLL'S SCHOOLMASTER'S ASSISTANT, and have formed of it a very favorable opinion. According to its original design, I think it well "calculated to furnish Schools in general with a methodical, easy and comprehensive System of Practical Arith metic." I therefore hope it may find a generous patronand have an extensive spread. age, ASA MESSER, Professor of the Learned Languages, and Teacher of Mathematics. [President of that Institution,] |
