RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE elementary principles of our langutse. We would, therefore, recommend the work to schoolmasters and teachers generally, throughout the Province. {Prom the Saint John City Gazette, Febt-uary 26, 1841 .) We consider it a very useful Book for children. The Author has well adapted it to the capacity of the youthful mind, by omitting those words which, from their ambiguity in pronunciation, often discourage the begin- ner. In proportion as it becomes known, we have no doubt but that it will be generally preferred, both by teachers and scholars. (Frmi <&e Saint Ahdrewa Standard; FOruary 26, 1841.) From the eursory glance which we have given it~we do not hesitate to say, that it is better for children than any other work in the Province. > (Front the New-Brurmoick Courier, February 27, 1 84 1 . ) Talent and experience in teaching have eminently qualified the Author of the Spelling Book, Mr. William Gorry, tor undertaking the task of compiling improved School Books, and the one to which we have reference was highly approved by a Committee of the House of Assembly, and considered superior to every other similar work in seneral < se. It appears also te have received general commendation by other competent judges, and it therefore only requires to be known, in order to its being generally adopted in Schools throughout the Province. We trust Mr. Corry's exer- tions in this instance wul at once receive such encouragement as will induce bin to c6ntinue his labours, that in a few years we may have a set (k School 3ooks adapted to the improvements of the age, as well as pecu- liarly suited for instructing the youth of the jProvmce,— requisites of which those at present in use are manifestly deficient. iFrom the Sunt John Amarar^h, March, 1841.) In our estimation, the work is destined to become a most popular one in this* Province^ The systematic arrangement exhibited throuithout the work, and the distinct, comprehensive, and progressive run of the words, both m spelling and reading lessens, must tend, in a great measure, to facilitate the progress of the young in acquiring a correct knowledge of the rudimints of an English education. The work is highly creditable to the Author, and exhibits throughout much taste and sound judgment, and proves his knowledge of the task he has performed. (From the Woodstock Tel^raph, March 6, 1841.) We ar« satisfied that it is decidedly the best now in use in the Province. The work is carried on m such a regular gradation as makes it admirably v. adapted'to facilitate the progress of the learner. {Prom the Saini John Observer, March 9, 1841 .)

Notwithstanding the large sums of money which have been- appropriated to e4ucational purposes in this Province, much remains yet to be done for the improvement of the « Parish Schools." Among the many deficiencies which present themselves, a principal one 18 the want ofbooks adapted to the infant mind. Many works of this kind have recently appeared, written by gentlemen of distrngu^hed abUiUes and learning ; but men of the most profound knowledge may, from their inexperience in teaching tlw lower classes of learners, be incompetent to accommodate Uie arrangement of the lessons to the capacity of children. I speak the r rr^ffi uT '"^^^^g^^^ ^^^^^^^ when I say that, in all these, the most difficult lessons are, in many canes, placed first in order After a perusal of the Spelling Books of Dilwortb, Fenning, Manson.

""^'"n ''^'^^'^'' '^'^^y acquainted with the alphabet cannot possibly spell without the teacher's assistance ;- a circum- stance discouraging to children, as they always dislike difficulties, especially at a:f early stage of their progress. During my experience as a teacher, I have fr^qu ,r selected two pupils who, after having learned the alphabet, appeared to be of equal abilities: tlie one I taught the lessons according to the arrangement of Dilworth, &c. ; the other, in learning dissyllables. I instructed to pass by all the more difficult words; this course I pursued also in trisyllables ;- and the result was, that, upon his gomg a second time over the lessons, he was found to have acquired by experience so much knowledge of the sound and power of the letters, that those words which, at first, would have tended to puzzle and confound him, he could, unaided, then spell himself, w.tli very few excepUons; and that he was qualified for reading son e months before the other. "Monosyllables," says Murray! "are easy and familiar to children."

The Comma usually separates those parts of a sentence nhich, though very closely connected in sense, require a pause between them ; as, « They prayed, and said.

SEMICOLON.

A no-ble li-on, faint with heat, and wea-ry with hard hunt-mg, lay down to re-fresh him-self with a nap in the en- trance of a large cave. While he was a-sleep, a num-ber of mice ran o-ver his back, and wa-ked him. 2. Up-on this, start-ing up in a rage, and clap-ping his paw up-on one of them, "You li>-tle scram-bling rogue !'^ said he how came you to be so bold as to dis-turb my rest ? But I war-i-ant you I will put an end to your sau-cy pranks for the time to come. a "In-deed, sir," said the Iit-tle crea-ture, "I meant no harm ; upon my word and hon-our, I did not. Be-sides, sir, you see 1 am a mouse, and it would" be a great dis-grace to such a no-ble beast as the mon-arch of the for-est, to take re- vengej)n such a lit-tte thing as I am." 4. The good ll-ui. could not help laugh-ing at his ex-cuse ; but as he thought there was some rea-son in what he said, he was con-tent to let him go. ' 5. Not long af-ter, as the same li-on was roam-ing o-ver the ^■^vm TWr 36 THE NEW BRUNSWICK FAte, f a.r, fill, fit; — mi, m*t; — pine, pin j — n6, mdve, for-est in soairch of his prey, he had the ill luck to run into a strong net, which had been laid for him by the hun-tera ; and, not be-ing a-ble to f< ce his way out of it, down he fell, and set up such a feai-ful roar as made the groufid trem-ble un-der liim. 6. The poor mouse, krtow-ijng the voice, in a mo-ment ran as fast as he could to see what was the mat-ter. When he c»me to the spot, and be-held the li-on foam-ing at the mouth with rage, "Come, no~ble sir," said he, "let me beg of you not to dis-turb your-self; your poor lit-tle scram-bling rogue will set you free, or die for it." 7. The mouse was as good as his word ; for to work he went in an in-stant, a«id with his sharp lit-tle teeth gnaw-ed in two the knots and -mesh-es of the net, and left the no-ble li-on to go where he pleas-ed. 8. We may learn from this fa-ble, that there is no per-son so lit-tle but that the great-est may, at some time Or oth-er, stand in need of his help. XXI. 21. ^ ^ TWENTY-ONE. LESSON TWENTY-FIRST.

When they had done break-fast, his moth-ek lent Hen-ry a lit-tle book for chil-dren, and lei him read Ae sto-ry of the poor blind fid-dler, with which Hen-ry was ve-ry much pleas- ed ; and then she let Lu-cy read tife fol-low^ing sto-ry. 2. " A man, ri-ding near a town call-ed Read-itig, saw a lit-tle chim-nejr-sweep-er ly-mg in the dirt, who seem-ed to be in great pain, and he ask-ed him.what was the mat-ter ; and the chiia-ney-sweep-er said, that he had fell-en down, and bro-ken his arm, and hurt his leg, so that he was not a-ble to walk. 3. "And the man, who was ve-ry good-na-tu-red, got off bis horse, and put the chim-ney-sweep-er up-on it, and walk-ed by ihe side of the hors<^ and held the boy on, till he came to Read-ing. 4. « When he came to Read-ing, he put the boy un-der tlie care of an old wo-man, whom he knew there ; and he paid a sur-geon for set-ting his arm, and gave the wo-man mon-ey for the trou-ble ifvhich she would have in ta-king car of the boy, and the ex-pense which she would be at in feed-inghim, till he should be a-ble tawork a-gain, to eani mon-ey for hiniHself. ii ** Then the man con-tin-u-ed his jour-ney till he got to Mm ^'''^^^^'''^mi^i m^ '''^^^Mflhf^-n SPELLING^ BOOK. ao h • ^ ndr, n&t ; — tAbe, tftb, bflU ; — AU, p6flnd ; — thm, this. own house, which was a great way off. The boy soon got well, and earn-ed his bread by sweep-ing chim-neys at Reading. 6. " Sev-er-al years af-ter that time, this same good-na-tu-red man was ri-ding through Read-ing, and his horse took fright up-on a bridge, and jump-ed, with the man up-on his back, in-to the wat-er. 7. <* The «ian could not swim, and tlie peo-ple who were on the bridge, and saw him tura-ble in, were a-fraid to jump in-to the wat-er, to pull him out ; but just as he was rea-dy to sink, a chim-ney-sweep-er, who was go-iug by, saw him, and, with- out stop-ping a mo-ment, threw him-self in-to the riv-er, and, seiz-ing hold of him, drag-ged him out of the wat-er. and sa-ved him from be-ing drown-ed. 8. "When the man was safe up-on the bank, and was go-ing to thank the man v/ho pull-ed him oufTof the wat-er, he re-col- lect-ed that it was the same chim-ney-sweep-er, whom he had ta-ken care ofj sev-er-al years be-fore, and who had haz-ard-ed his own li^ to save that of his beu~e-fac-toi*." 9. When Lu-cy had done read-ing, her moth-er ask-ed Hen-ry which he fi-ked bet-ter, the man who had ta-ken care of the chim-a»y-sweep-er, whom he did not know, or the chim-ney-swelp-er, who had sa-ved tlie life of the man whom he knew, ^nd who had taken care of him when his arm was bro-ken. 10.. Hen-ry said he U-ked the chim-ney-sweep-er bet-ter, be-eause he was grate-fiil, and be-cause he ven-tu-red his own life to save that of .tlie man who had been kind to him. 11. But Lu-cy said, she li-ked the oth-er man bet-ter, be- eause he was hu-mane, and took Care of a poor lit-tle boy, who had no-bo-dy to take care of him, and from whom he could nev-er ■ex-pect to re-«eive arny ben-e-fit.

James had not pro-ceed-ed far, be-foro he saw a poor sail^ or, who had lost both his legs in a bat-tie at sea, hop-pmg a-lonir on crutch-es. ^ r r 6 "S 2. "God bless you, my lit-Ue mas-ter ! " said the sail-or; «I have fought ma-ny a bat-tie in my coun-try's de-fence ; but now 1 am crip-pledj^as you see,, and have nei-ther vic-tu-als nor moa-ey, al-though I am al-most fam-ish-ed." 3. The Ijt-tle boy could not re-sist hia^in-cli-na-tion to rfe-lieve him; so he gave him all the vic-tu-als that he had left and said, « God help you, poor man! this is all I have ; oth-er-wise y.ou should have more." 4. He then ran a-long, and pres-ent-ly ar-ri-ved in the town he was go-mg to, did his er-rand, and re-tum-ed tow-ards his own home, as fast as he could. But he had not gone much more than halfway, be-fore the night shut in ve-ry dark, with- out ei-ther moon or strn-s to light him. 5. The poor lit-tle boy did all that he was a-ble, to find his way, but lost it m turn-ing down a lane, which brought him in- to a wood, where he wan-der-ed a-bout a great while, with-out be-ing a-ble to find a-ny path to lead him out. 6. Ti-ped out at last, and hun-gry, he felt him-self so fee-ble that he could ^o no iar-ther, but sat him-self down up-on the ground and cn-ed bit-ter-ly. 7. Here he sat lor some time, till at last the lit-tle dog, who had nev^er for-sa-ken him, came up to him wag-ging his tail, and hold-mg some-thing in his mouth. James took it from him, and saw li was a hand-ker-chief, nice-ly pin-ned to-geth- er, which some-bo-dy had ^rop-ped, and the dog had pick-ed up. 8. Up-on o-pen-mg it, he found sev-er-al sli-ces of bread and meat, which the lit-tle boy ate with great sat-is-fac-tion, and telt him-self much re-fresh-ed with this meal. 9. « So," said he toiiis dog, "I see tliat, if I gave you a break- fast, you have giv-en me a sup-per; and a good turn is nev-er lost, e-ven ir it is done to a r'og." 10.

She alone gives peace and content, ment: she dive-^ the heart of corroding care, pours upon the soul a flood of serene delight, and sheds an unmingled sunshine upon all the objects of life. By her the spirits of darkness are banished from the earth, and angehck mnusters of grace hover unseen amid the re^^ioiis «t mortality. Among men, she promotes love and good-will: 1-a.ses the hea.l that hangs down; heals the wounded sph-it dispels the gloom of sorrow, and sweetens the cup of affliction.

EXERCISE. ^fany people look upon the necessity man is under of earning Ins bread by labour as a curse. Be that as it may, it is evidert, Irom the stiucture of the body, that exercise is not less neces- ^'ary than food for the preservation of Tiealth. Those whom poverty obliges to labour for daDy bread, are not only the most liealtljy, but generally tlie most happy, part of mankind. In- dustry seldom fails to place them above want; and activity serves tliem instead of physicfc. This is most peculiarly the case with those wIm) live by the culture of the ground. The ?reat iiicrvase of inhabiCtUils in in^t colonies, and the longevity of •such as ftilow agriculture every where, evidently prove it to bo tf J€ most healthiul, as well as the most useflil, employment. ine love of activity shows itc^lf very early in man. P-. r ' SPELLING BOOK. 69 strottg IS this principle, that a healthy youth cannot be re- strained from exercise even by the fear of punishment. Our love of motion is surtly a Btrone proof of its utUity. Nature implants no disposition m vain. It seems to be a catholick law throughout the whole animal creation, that no human creature, >yithout exercise, should enjoy health, or be able to find subl sistence. Every creature, except man, takes as much of it an IS necessary.

How can persons who loll all day m easy chairs, and sleep ail night on beds of down, fail to be relaxed ? Nor do such mend the matter, who never stir abroad but m a coach, or the like.

SALUTATIONS AND CEREMONIES. «• The salutation, says a French writer, is the touchstone of good breeding. According to circumstances, it should be respectful, cordial, ci^ 1, affectionate, or familiar; an inclination of the head, a gesture with the hand, the touching or doffing of the hat If you remove your hat, you need not, at the same time, bend your body, unless you wish to be very reverential, as in saluting u bishop. Some ladies courfMj^ in the street — a movement not grace- fully consistent with locomotion. Tli y should always bow. It an individual of the lowest rank, or without any rank at all, takes oft' his hat to you, yoa should do the same in return. The two best-bred men in England, Charles th.> Second and George the Fourth, never failed to take off their liais to the salute of the meanest of their subjects. If you have any thing to say to any one in Xlm street, espe- cially a lady, however intimate you may be, do not stop the person, but turn round and walk in company : you can take leave when your chat is over. On a lady recognising you, make a slight reverential bow, and take off* your hat. On entering a coffee-house or publick room of an inn or hotel, and sitting down, take off' your hut. On accidentally running against any one in the street, make an apology, and slightly raise your hat*. In walking with a lady, if she is bowed to, you must return the salute. Never sit in church, or any where within doors where there are ladies, with your hat on your head. If you meet a lady of your acquaintance in the open air, it is her part to notice you first, unless where you are very- intimate. iT"-*T^'l «^-'tltXSI a lady's salute without tc J - our hat. ^ill ask yoir refuse Mv'itli LTRTH. cledge of any touchstone i should he I inchnation g or doffing ) time, bend I in saluting not grace- ays bow. any rank at le in return.

SPELLING BOOK. 75 Do not insist, in a hot day, on pnlluig off your glore to shake hands with a lady. If the day is cold, however, and you do not keep her waiting, always pull it off. Ir you meet your friend in publick, never address him by iidme in a loud tone. If you are walking with a kdy who has your arm, and you cross the street, it is better not to disengage your arm, and go round upon the outside. Such effort evin es a palpable atten- tion to form, and timt is always to be avoided. A lady should rarely take the arms of two gentlemen, one bemg upon each side ; nor should a gentleman usually carry a lady upon ich arm. There are, to be sure, some cases in which It 18 necessary for the protection of the ladies, that they should both take an arm, as in coming home from a concert, or in passing, on any occasion, through a crowd.

Remember that all deviations from prescribed forms, on common occasions, are vulgar; such as sending invitations or replies couched in some unusual forms of speech. Always remember that the terms of compliment at the close of a letter — "I have the honour to be your very obedient ser- vant," and the like — are merely forms, sigmjying nothinjr. Do not, therefore, avoid them on account of pride, or a dislike to the person addressed. Do not presume, as some do, to found expectations of favour or promotion from great men, who prof(-H8 tlieniselves your obliged servant. In writing n letter of business, it is extremely vulgar to use satm or gla> d gold-edged paper. Always employ, on such occasions, plain paper. Place the date at the top of the page» and, if you please, the name of the person at the top also, just above the « Sir ; " though this last is indifferent. In letters, not on business, to gentlemen, always place the date at the end of the letter. Use the best paper, but not fig- ured, and never fail to enclose it in an envelope. Attention to. tiiese matters is indispensable. To a person whom you do not know well, say " Sir," not " I »ear Sir."

You are attentive not to make the coach wait for you at the stopping-places. When the ladies get out, you must offer them your arm. You should make all the accommodations to others which you can do consistentiv with your own convenience; for, after all, the individuals are each like little nations ; and as, in the one case, the first duty is to your country, so, m the other, the first duty is to yourself. Some surly creatures, upon entering a coach, wrap about their persons a great-coat of cloth, and about their minds a mantle of silence, which are not thrown off" during the whole journey. This is doinff more harm to themselves than to others. %ou should make a point of conversing with an ap- pearance of entire freedom, thoujrh with real ret^erve, with all those who are so disposed. On. purpose and pleasure of travelling is to gam information, and to observe the various characters of persons. You will be asked by others about the road you passed over, and it will be awkward if you can give no account of it Converse, therefore, with all. Relate amusing stones, chiefly of other countries, ami even of other tnnes, so as not to offend any one. If engaged in discussion, — and a coach is almost the only place where discussion should not be avoided, — state facts and arguments, rather than opin- ions. Never answer impudent questions, and never ask them. At the meals which occur during a journey, the entire scene is one of uninterrupted war of every person with every other person, with the viands, and with good manners. You open your mouth only to admit edibles, and to bellow to the waiters. Your sole object is yourself. You drink wine without ask- ing your neighbour to join you. Rapacity, roaring, and ra- pidity, are the three requisites for dining during a journey. When you have resumed your seat in the coach, you are as bland as a morning in spring. Never assume any unreal importance in a stage-coach, found- ed on the Ignorance of your fellows, and their inability to detect "• J } >f. excessively absurd, and can only gratify a momentary and foolish vanity. - o ^ j The friendship which has subsisted between travellers should terminate with the journey. When you get out, a ?yj?™' a,bow — and the most pleasant or unpleasant period of life IS finished and forgotten. TABLE 35.

These pieces of ice are fre- quently more than a mile in length, and upwards of a hundred le?t m thickness ; and, when they are put m motion by a storm, nothmg can be more terrible. The Dutch had thirteen ihins crushed to pieces by them in one season. There are sevei-aJ kinds of whales in these seas, some white and others black. The black sort, 'the grand bay whale, is iii most esteem, on account of his bulk, and the gr^at quantity 5 blubber he affords. His tongue is about eighteen feet lonir. inclosed m long pieces of what we call whaMnne, whieh ara covered with a kind of hair like horsehair; and on each side of > Jus tongue are two hundred and fifty piece* of this whalebone. 1 he bones of his body are as hard as an ox's bone& There are no teeth in his mouth; and he is usuaUy between sixty and eiglity feet long; very thick about the head, but grows less from tlience to the tail. When the seamen see a whale spout, the word is immediate- ly given -.^ / faU ! — when every one hastens from the shin to his ^at; SIX or eiffht men being appointed to a boat, and tour or five boats usually belong to one sWp. When tjiey come near the whale, the harpooner strikes him with his harpoon, and the animal, finding himself wounded* runs swiftly down info the deep, and would carry the boat along with him, if they did not give him line fast enough ? and; to prevent the wood of the boat taking fire by the violent fric- tion of the rope on the side of it, one wets it constantly with a mop. After the whale has run some hundred fiuhoms deep, ho 18 forced to come up for air, when he makes such a noi«e with his spouting, that somelmve compared it to the firing of can- non. As soon as he appears on the surface of the water, some ot the harpooners fix another harpoon in him ; whereupon he plunges again into the deep ; and when be cornea up a second nn$t, they pierce him with spears in the vital pahs, till be --j^,-t3»=j vut, Bucoxijs ui ijsuuu suoicaa oi water, oeapog in^ w«v^k withiiis tail and fins till the searis all in a foam ; the boats con- toiiing to follow him some leagues, till he has lost his strength | •MO, when he is dying, he turns himself x^m his back, aodi if m TITE KTEW BRUNSWICK .^UlL. i ^U Fii^le, far, fall, f trt ; -7 ni^, uifet ; -^ pine, p n ; — no, mdve, drawn on Bhore, or to the ship, if they be at a distance from the land..

The manner iir which they kill the elephant, is as tbliows: — Two men, without any rag or covering at alt about them, get on horseback ; this precautimi is firom fear of being laid hold of by tlie trees or buslies in making their escape from a very watch*' ful enemy. Onci of thoHe riders nits upon the back of tbe horse, fiometimes with a saddle, and sometimes without one, with only a switch or ishoit stick in one hand, earefuIJy onanaging the bridle with the other.

Hence we may observe, that continents or large traicts of land, on whicfe. rivers nfust be of ^reot length, m order to reach the ocean, contain high mountems.

The day and night succeed each other; the rotation of the seasons varies the year; the sun rises, attains the meridian, declines, and sets; and the moon every night changes its form. The day has been considered a^ an^ image of the year, and a year as the representative of life. The morning answers to the spring, and the spring to childhood ar.d youth. The noon corresponds to the summer, and the summer to tlie strength of manhood ; the evening is an emblem of autumn, and autumn of declining life. The night, with its silence and darkness, shows the winter, in wliich all the powers) of vegetation are benumbed; and the srwinter points out the time when life shall cease, with its hopes and pleasures. If the wheel of life, which rolls thus silenUy along, passed uniformly on, we should never mark its appoaches to the end of the course. If one hour were like another, — if the course of the sun did not show that the day is wasting, — days and years would glide unobserved. HONOUB?.. An'-nals; historiest.
