LITEfiAnTBE. WIT
SENTIMENT.
FOR 1821.
Office or the SArfiaDAt Ev. post.
Pl iLtslpb<a„Dee. 2. 1826.
THE CASKET, or Hotelrs of Literature,
IFtf and Sci’tumnt, whieh has had an unpre
cedented liicrease of patrons during the last
six months, w Lit after the present volume is
finish-d, contain, each number, 40 octavo
pagei, printed ivett, on small handsome type,
upod the finest paper, stitched and covered,
and furnished at tit low price of Two Dollars
and fitly e. ets peraanum. Tne Casket is a
collection from the choicest pieces of the Sat
urday Evening Past, made with u rcflurence
to the difference which should exist in tlie
materials of a weekly paper, and those of a
monthly publication, the former of course en
riched with essay*, poetry, anecdotes, and
these set oil' by a recital of tire occurrences of
the week. Theinttei eau receive little value
iron a mere detail ol e vents, many of which
would cease to bo interesting before they
were recorded.
The vast quantity of matter crowded, by
small type and careful arrangement, into the
columns of every number of the Saturday
Evening Post, will in the course of a month,
furnish the most ample materials from which
to form an iuteresung peri'dical work sue
as tire Casket has been considered by its
partial friends, and such as we intend it shall
be. Notwithstanding the fact, that the Cas
ket is but a collection from the columns of
the Saturday Evening Pest, we confidently
predict, and indeed we ayi sanetioncd in the
experience we already have, that its most
numerous pat rolls will be found among the
subscribers to our weakly paper.—A large
number of those who take the “Post” de
pend upon that paper for the news of the
week —ii is therefore read with avidity by
almost every member of the faaiiiy where it
is received, and this general use frequently
injures its appearance so much as almost to
render it unlit for the file, or for binding.
The numbers too, by this general use, are not
unfrequently lost, mutilated, or entirely des
troyed, and the file timahaabeu.- -The Casket
ri calculated to prevent this inconvenience,
and to furnish, ut a very cheap price, ail the
useful matter, for which the weekly paper
would be desirable when bound.—in thus
giving a permanent form and select associa
tion to tlie choice pieces of our weekly eon
tributors, it is confidently anticipated that
new and successful inducements will be held
out for the exercise of superior talent, and
unusual care in our literary department.—ln
addition to the recommendation of neatness
in thr. uppcritaiicc —und paiuculia
attention to tlie typographical execution, it is
our intention to embellish each number of the
“ Casket ” with three handsome Engravings
from the hands of some of the most distin
guished artists of the country.
With these claims to patronage, the “Cas
ket” will, as has been previously mentioned,
be afforded to those who subscribe for that
paper exclusively, at the low price of $2,50
per year, a subscription w hich it is confident
ly believed, is much lower than that for any
other publication of a similar character in
this country —but to the subscribers of the
“ Saturday Evening Post ” ths “ Casket ”
will be furnished for 82,00.
The January No. foi 1827, will be em
bellished ivttb a porirait Os the late venerable
JOHN ADAMS, formerly President of the
j United States, one of Longacre’s best engrav
ings ; also a correct anil beautiful view of
FAIR MOUNT WATER WORKS, in the
vicinity of Philadelphia; besides the first No.
of the SCHOOL OF FLORA, being tlie
commencement of a regular series of Treaties
on Botany, illustrated with numerous cuts.
Post-Masters and publishers of papers who
will interest themselves in obtaining subreri

WOODBRIUGE & WILLARD’S
SCHOOL GEOGRAPHY,
Constructed upon Scientific principles, greatly to facilitate tht
study, and abridge the labor of the Student—Viz.
“rudiments ofceograpuy OK a sew flan, designed to assist the memory
BY COMPARISON AND CLASSIFICATION, ACCOMPANIED WITH AN ATLAS.
BT JVM. C. WOODBRIDCE, LATE INSTF.UCTOR IS TIIE
AMERICAN ASYLUM FOE THE DEAF AND DUME.”
The experience of intelligent teachers has conclusively proved tha
the important science ot Geography is permanently acquired from thr
system here presented in fur less time than has been usually occupied—
That the memory is greatly assisted in tlie recollection of facts—That
the student becomes involuntarily interested, anil by the peculiar code
adopted is necessarily led to a thorough comprehension of every subject
treated. The superior excellence of the system may also be inferred
trom the very rapid sale it has obtained ; five large editions (consisting
of upwards of 60,QC0 copies) of the School Geography have already
been disposed of, and a sixth edition published. The following opinions
ot the work are from the most respectable sources and fully substanti -te
, the above remarks.
From the American Journal of Science and
.Iris, conducted by Benjamin is Ultra on.
Professor of Chemistry, Mineratlogy, Etc.
in Yale College.
The principle object of the authors, was
to give Geography that scientific arrangement
which has been so successfully applied to
other branches of study. Most works on
this subject have presented little more than
a collection of facts, grouped by an imper
fect method, and so littie connected by any
associating principle, as to overload tics me
mory and fatigue tiie mind. Little or no
use has hitherto been made, by the greater
number of writers, cf the important principles
6f classification, in reducing geography to
the form of a science, and thus increasing
the facility of acquiring and retaining its de
tails. The work is accompanied by an Atlas
on anew plan, exhibiting, in connection with
the outlines of countries, their climate ami
productions, their prevailing religion, forms
of Government, and degrees of Civilization,
with the comparative size of Towns, Rivers,
and Mountains. Thu plan is ingenoua—and
the information thus communicated through
the midinns of the eye, will make a much
stronger and more durable impression on
the mind than that received by mere descrip
tion, while it is also acquired with more
interest and pleasure. We think Mr. Wood
bridge has succcccded well in his design, ano
deserves the thanks and the patronage of iff.

Let real improvements be made, especially
in elementary treatises for the instruction of
tlie young, and they have our cordial appro
bation. Os this character we consider Mr.
VVoodbridge’s publications most undoubtedly
to be. The praise of originality in tiie plan,
and of a novel method of exhibiting and
tcacldng the science, must be awarded to
him. The principle of comparison and classi
fication which he has adopted, strikes us as
being peculiarly favorable, in general, both to
a comprehension of the subject treated of,
and to their retention in the memory. It
affords, ns wc think, as to mental discipline,
that precise advantage, which a system of
Geography should be designed to produce.
Scattered and unconnected facts, however
’.veil remembered, on so many different sub
jects as geography presents to us, are tar less
important, than distinct impressions correctly
arranged, and happily associated in tire mind.
Besides, that such a principle agrees with the
The above Recommendations, and many more that we might add to them, apple

Rev. Z. S. Moore, D. D. President of Am

I have examined the Rudnnents of Geo
graphy, and the Allas, by Wm. C. V.'ood
bridge. The plan is new, ingenious and in
teresting. The author has formed his pH,
with a due respect to the laws of mind. A
correct classification and arrangement of the
objects of knowledge, comprised in any of the
sciences, is of primary importance. I am
much pleased with the plan of the chart of
the inhabited world. The work is, in m »
opinion, the best fitted of any thing I have
seen, to excite in the learner an interest ia
attending to ths science cf Geography, hi f a "
ciiitate his progress, and to discipline fits
mind.

I have examined Mr. Woodbrid"-e’s
Geography and Atlas, with consiuerabie°al
tention, and 1 may add, with an increasing
conviction of the truth of an opinion which t
have long entertained, that the modes of im
parting useful knowledge to youthful mind?,
ire susceptible of very great and important
improvement- I have no doubt one month’s
.rial of it will satisfy the father of a family,
or tiie intelligent master of a school, that lit
combines ad.untages, uhichrender hsuperior
to any book of the kind, for a similar pur
pose now extant. And I sincerely hone, that
this valuable elementary treatise on a very
useful branch of education, will soon obtain
that currency whieh it justly merits.
The system has also been fully recom
mended by the following highly respected
gentlemen.—l’-t. Rev. Tim’s C. Brownell,
