Although averse 10 The practice OF altering school
books, and thereby creating confusion in classes, the
author of this work has been induced by the pos
session OF recent full and authentic materials, con-
aiuiug more definite and correct information than
could before be obtained 10 revise the Geography

errors have escaped notice. they Will DO corrected
in future editions.


The plan of the book has not been changed, the
author never having had any intima,on that change
desirable. Teachers therefore who have been
in the habit of using it, will still find it familiar. 1t
lie believed that the Atlas will be found superior 10
any other. Ii s engraved in the best STYLE aud all

crt, have been used 70 make II accurate and clear.
The object being to teach Geography 10 young per-
sons care has been used 10 exhibit the various por
lions of the world in the plsnes manner and so us

sible. The Atlas contains some new features,

fix the idea Intended 10 be conveyed. The sale of
nearly million copies of Oney's Geography and
Atu, in the face oithe most strenuous competition,
may be said 10 have established its reputation as
work OF real merit. Ii the publishers can rely upon
