 iCotE Pon TtiE TbacMer. — Before cohiinehcing this book, the 
 pupil is supposed to have some knowledge of Numeration, to be 
 acquainted with the Multiplication Table, and to be able to work 
 easy exercises in Simple Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and 
 Short Division. As an introduction to the following exercises tiie 
 Author uses the First Book of Arithindic, published in Nelson's 
 School Series — a little work which he would unhesitatingly recom» 
 mend> especially to teachers of the Deaf and Dumb. For beauty 
 and clearness of typography, ingenious arrangement, careful grada- 
 tion of difficulties and fulness of exercises, lie knows nothing of equal 
 value. Indeed, had it been prepared expressly for the ])urpose, it 
 could scarcely have been better adapted to the requirements of Deaf- 
 mute tuition. 
 
 The present manual embraces between Four and Five Thousand 
 Exercises, without answers. The answers are not appen;led, most 
 of the exercises being so (constructed as to be readily verified by 
 the Teachen J. S. H.

 PREFACE. 
 
 The following pages owe their origin to local circumstances, 
 having been prepared to meet the peculiar wants of our Provin- 
 cial tleaf-mutes, nnder instruction in the Halifax Institution. 
 
 After being, for some years, used in manuscript — a system involv- 
 ing serious disadvantages — these exercises are now printed, in 
 order to save time and labour hitherto unadvoidably absorbed in 
 the mechanical drudgery of providing written copies of them 
 for a whole school. For this boon — which can be duly appreci- 
 ated only by Teachers similarly circumstanced — we are indebted 
 to the liberality of the Legislature of Nova Scotia. Last session 
 in addition to the usual annual grant for the support of the Insti- 
 tution, the sum of $200 was generously appropriated by the 
 House of Assembly, towards defraying the cost of printing certain 
 lesson-books urgently required for our pupils, and which could 
 not be obtained in any other way. The present little volume is 
 the first-fruits of this enlightened and considerate policy.* 
 
 The work is not intended to furnish a complete system of Arith- 
 inetic. It aims rather at supplementing the deficiencies of ordi- 
 nary Arithmetics, so as to meet the requirements of the peculiar 
 class for vhom it is primarily designed. This branch of study 
 presents extraordinary difficulties to Colonial deaf-mutes— diffi- 
 culties unknown in the schools of the mother country — owing to 
 the complicated and perplexing nature of the Provincial Curren- 
 cies. A duller as well as more elementary treatment, than the 
 subject receives in our common school books, was therefore abso- 
 
 *It seems proper to state that the special grant referred to was made on 
 the unanimous recommendation of tlio ComQuttee on Humane Institutions, 
 to whom tlie necessities of the case were earnestly represented on the occa- 
 sion of their annual visi^ of inspection to the Institution, last spring. The 
 J.ompiler also particularly desires to embrace this opportunity of expressing 
 •"•grateful sense of the valuable services of Hiram Blanchard, Ksq., 
 M.P.I . Chairman of the Committee, whose hearty and unwearied Interest in 
 the cause, have tended so materially to promote the interests of deaf-mute 
 education in the Legislature.

 lutoly uidlsponsable in oni- circumsfntioos, and this, it is tl.o nhwrt 
 ot the present manual to snnply. 
 
 The (liffK ulties of the sul.ject to the deaf-mute arise from thre,- 
 sources: — 
 
 1st. The varyinjr values of the same denominjitions in the 
 nitferent I'rovinces. 
 
 2n(l. The intermin<rlinnr and eollision of dilferent systems in the 
 sanic Proyinee, ii3 in Xova Si-otia, where there may be said to be 
 three distinct mo-K's of accouutin;;, viz., SfeHinr/ Money, the old 
 pounds, shillings, and peace catrency, and the new Decimal System 
 ot dollars and cents. 
 
 3rd. The want of coins corresponding^ to the denominations 
 employed. I or example, in this Province the pupil is constantlv 
 hroujiht ill contact with the terms sixpence, shilling and dollar. 
 when 111 tact we have no such coins in circulation, Except, a few 
 .stray pieces from the neighbourinnr Provinces or the United 
 states. 1 hey arc simply imanjinar; units, mere names represent- 
 innr no suijile " objective" reality. When the deaf-mute sees the 
 word si.xpence. .-.hillinnr or dollar, he naturally expects to be 
 shown a t^ingible somethinjr, a visible unit, answerintr to the 
 name ; and in the absence of this, it is by no means ea.«^y to make 
 the matter intellijiible to him, involviufr as it does an exercise of 
 the generalizing faculty, for which he is hardly prepared at this 
 stage of mental development. And, to add to his perplexity, he 
 IS meeting dady with the British sixpences and shillings— pars- 
 ing current for 7id. and Is. 3(1., respectively— which he naturailv 
 confounds with the corresponding Provincial denominations, 
 lience a practical comprehension of the difference between 
 sterling and currency is but slowly attained, and that only after 
 repeated and persevering effort; and the same remark applies to 
 the difference between one Provincial currency and another. 
 Were we provded in Nova Scotia, as is the case m New Bruns- 
 wick and Canada, with coins answering to the different denom- 
 inations of our currency, one great obstacle to the deaf-mute's 
 progress would be removed. 
 
 ,7^\^ W^^»*int work embraces about 4,500 easy xaercises 
 ohiefly illustrative of the four simple Rules, Halves and Fourths' 
 Bills or Accounts, Nova Scotia and Sterling Money, and 
 Conversion of Currencies— the whole arranged 'in a manner 
 winch experience has proved well adapted to lead the learner 
 to a gradual understanding of the application of numbers to the 
 simpler business transactions of every day life. A lar<re propor- 
 tion of the exercises are practical, not merely as bei'iirrs suited 
 
 
PRKFACK. 
 
 V. 
 
 for practico, but also as bona fide transcripts of real transactions 
 ronncctod with persons and places familiar to the pnpils, tlius 
 •riviiiji; the book a local and livin^j interest, calcnlated to enhance 
 its usefulness. 
 
 Care has also been taken throujjhout, to render the study of 
 Avithmeti(! auxiliary to the acquiiiif.ion of language — the chief 
 ohject of dea'-mnte education — by arranjxin;;, varying and repeat- 
 i II}; the phraseolojry of the (piestions, so as to extend the pupir,< 
 vocabulary, and impress the various kinds of expression and 
 forms of construction upon his memory. 
 
 It has not b^en deemed proper to encumber the work with 
 lenpthy explanations or demonstrations of the principles of the 
 Hules. For the deaf and dumb, with their meagre knowledjxc of 
 langnajie, these would be almost useless, while even for ordinary 
 children their utibvy is t'cry questionable. And, in any case, the 
 ** Ktelligept ter*''hv ' ' ca k -iupply such demonstrations by means 
 of blackboia ■ ,ud jral nistruction, more easily and effe'^tively 
 than tbc be l text-book. In a m. 'lua^ for the pnpil, the principal 
 desideratum i? :* '..I'ecticii of prradiiated practical exercises on 
 each rule s'lfhei'^nt ii" thoroughly >vo''k.'d, to furnish both the 
 kind an^' avnunt of piactici. niu'c a/y to prodnce a ready and 
 accurate .\vithn. ;;lu ian. 
 
 In conclusion, while tlic book whj. orlgin.illy prepared, and is 
 now printed, jxprepsly for the (k^+'-mutes of the Halifax Institu- 
 tion, it is believed that the feature? of simplicity, gradation, and 
 copiousness which characterize the Exercises, would make it 
 scarcely less serviceable for junior classes in the Common Schools 
 of the Province.

 REDUCTION OF CURRENCY AND STERLING. 
 
 If you went to England with a Nova Scotia <£5-note in your 
 pockot, and wanted to get it changed there, wouhl you got 
 UH many pound-notes for it an here V 
 
 No : you would only get /"our sovercignit or £4 sterling 
 for it, heeadse our currency is not worth so much as ster- 
 ling money. Sterling is worth more than Nova Scotia 
 money, so you would only get £4 stg. for your Nova 
 Scotia £5-note. This you will see from the following table : 
 
 £1 N. s.=lGs. stg. whereas XI .stg =::20s. «tg. 
 
 2 N. 8.=:32s. stg. " 2 .stg.=:40s. ^tg. 
 
 3 N. s.=48s. stg. •' ;} stg.=:tJOs. stg. 
 
 4 N. 8.=64s. .stg. '' 4 stg.=80s. stg. 
 
 5 N. s.=80s. stg. 
 
 In the same way, you would only get £8 stg. for £10 cy. 
 
 12 .stg. for 15 cy 
 
 .4 '* 10 
 
 a 4. «< 20 
 
 40 
 60 
 
 80 stg. for 100 cy. 
 Thus, from every £100 of our money, you nmst take away 
 £20, or one-fifth (!), to bring it to sterling. 
 
 £100-=-5=£20 which taken from £100 cy.=£80 stg. 
 
 And, on the other hand, if you want to change .sterling to 
 currency, you must add one-fourth (^). For cxanjple, 
 if you want to know how n.uch £100 stg. is worth in our 
 money, you add £25 to it, which makes £125 currency.
