TWISS. Traveling Agent, PUBLISHER AND BOOKSELLER, PHILADELPHIA, Would invite the attention of Teachers and School Officers to the following valuable School Books: Greene's Series of Grammars, BY PROF. S. S. GREENE, OF BROWN UNIVERSITY. These three books form the most "complete, progressive and scientific series” now before the public. Greene's Grammars have been in use for more than twelve years, and are to-day "more popular than ever." They stand the test of the school-room. The pupils who study these books "I love Greene's Grammar; I can understand it. It is my favorite study." say: The best recommendation of these books is, that they are in general use in the better class of schools in all parts of the United States, and have received the most flattering testimonials from those using them. In the State of Michigan they are used with great satisfaction, in the schools of Detroit, Ann Arbor, Jackson, Marshall, Battle Creek, Grand Rapids, St. Johns, Pontiac, Flint, Albion, Olivet, &c., and in nearly all the Normal Schools in the country. Berard's School History of the United States: - A NEW AND REVISED EDITION, INCLUDING A HISTORY OF THE LATE REBELLION, IS NOW READY. This is a 12mo volume of 303 pages, beautifully illustrated, and though published but a short time, it has already passed through twelve large editions. It is very differently arranged from the School Histories in common use, and the attractive and pleasant style in which it is written can not fail greatly to instruct and interest the learner. "Miss Berard is a graceful and vivid writer, with a skill in condensation that gives her rare success as a historian for the juveniles," Berard's United States History is used in the Normal Schools of Illinois and Iowa, and the Public Schools of Detroit, Niles, Battle Creek, etc. Retail Price........

Probably no work has for a long time been issued which has so completely met the wants of students as this happily conceived volume by Mr. Hanson.

Companion to Hanson's Latin Prose Book. A HAND BOOK OF LATIN POETRY Containing Selections from Virgil, Ovid, and Horace; with Notes, critical and By J. H. HANSON, A.M., Principal of the Waterville Classical Institute, AND W. J. ROLFE, A.M., Master of the High School, Cambridge, Mass. READY EARLY IN SEPTEMBER. Shortly after the publication of the "PREPARATORY LATIN PROSE BOOK," the author and publishers of that work began to receive requests from teachers in different parts of the country, that a book of Latin poetry on the same plan might be prepared. The "Handbook of Latin Poetry " is the result of an effort to meet this popular demand. The book comprises from Virgil, the first six Books of the Eneid, the first two Books of the Georgics, and six of the Eclogues; from Ovid, twenty-five Mythological Tales from the Metamorphoses; from Horace, more than fifty of the Odes, the Carmen Sæculare, five of the Satires, seven of the Epistles, and the Ars Poetica. The selections from Virgil include more than is required for admission to most of the colleges in the country; and the Selections from Ovid and Horace, both in quantity and quality, are a full equivalent for the omitted portions of Virgil. For Female Seminarics and Colleges, it is believed that the book will meet a want which has long been widely felt. Attention is respectfully requested to this valuabe series, which, from its conves nience, value and economy, deserves careful examination.
