Ulf.EV Number 3 is a new and revised edition of the North Carolina Reader, first published in 1851. Numbers 1 and 2 just issued, complete the series, which is, as a whole, cheaper than any other series of Readers in the United States, and as complete. The Editor (Prof. Hubbard) in his Preface to Num ber 1 deems it pioper to aliu(letoa few of the peculiar advantages aimeil at by the Superintendent of Common Schools while making efforts to have this work com pleted. These are, 1, The encoumyement vf a feeling of self-dependence, and the enlistment of popular sentiment in behalf of the State and its institutions. It was not thought im portant, however, to liave more than one number of the Readers of merely a local interest. 2, To remedy the evil icerywhere compla>netl of in com- mo.i sclioolx, of a perpetual change in tezt books; an ex pensive habit, and one which injures the Schools by preventing the children from being classified. .A se ries of home Readers, it was supposed, would be cer tainly used, and this great evil thus avoided. 3, Economy, tne popular system of Readers being too long and being made so often merely to add to the profits of authors and publishers. This series is to consist of fewer numbers than those gen*’ r.i^ly used, ami it is believed that these numbers are sufficient, while if the system were uui- versally used in the State, the sum saved to parent® and children would amount to several thousand dollars annually. 4, To put in the kands of children learning to read com positions aujicifntly f I miliar but not of the. character called childish comjiositions, containing, in lessons easy enough for all ages, correct specimens of style, interesting in m.'itter, and inculcating proper morals, and religious instruction. The prices are, for No. 1, 25 cents; No. 2, 37^ cents and -No. 3, 75 cents. A liberal deduction from these prices to .Merchants and School Teachers. E. J. HALE & SON.
