The DAILY PRESS Is also the Official Paper of the dtp of Aifsna, having keen elected hr the Cltp Council a* their Official Organ, EDUCATIONAL. We hove heretofore suggested the importance of uniformity in our ednea tional system. We think the idea is a good one, and, if practicable, ought to be adopted. And we see no good reason why it should not be practicable. It is true that there is a great variety of school books, and, at the same time, a great variety of opinions in regard to their respective merits; but some au thoritative expression could be made on the subject, which would settle the difficulty and afford a good rule for general adoption. Thus, for instance, the State Universities ot each of the States could appoint one of their Faculty, or some other competent per son as one o( a Committee on text book.* This Committee could either meet at some convenient central point, or corres pond by letter, and so decide the sub ject. Perhaps it would be better to have a Committee from Northern Uni versities alone for the North, from Southern Universities alone for the South, and so on for the East and the West. The different sections of the Union might require a somewhat dif ferent system, and the professional men of each section could best judge of its requirements; though it would be preferable if sectionalism could be avoided, and a general system adopted for the whole Union, it would tend to unite the sections more closely, and, in the course of time, to educate away the sectional jealousies and sectional hatreds which now unhappily exist. The great advantage to be attained by the uniform system is, that when a child leaves one school to go to another, it will be necessary to purchase anew set of school books, nor to turn the pu pil back in his or her course of studies. This is, at present, a great drawback in the progress ot young students, and, sometimes, rather costly to parents and guardians, for, as it is now, if a family removes from one State to another, from one county to another, from one city to another, or even from one quarter of a city to another, the children of the fam ily attending school are required to cLnnge their school books, and their parents or guardians required to pur chase new ones for them. This, often times, requires a considerable outlay of money, while the drawback in point of lime and change of studies that may be required cannot be computed in money. A uniform system of education and series of text books would obviate these difliculties, greatly promote the progress of pupils, and advance the cause of edu cation generally. Sew Books. A Philosophical tod Practical Grammar of the Eagliab Language, Dialogicail, and Progressively Arranged. In which every word is parsed according to its use by Prof. I. J. Morris, A. 31. Auburn, Ala.: L. J. Morris. 1865. A personal acquaintance with Prof Morris enables us to write of him as a gentleman of talent, fine analytical pow ers, and great energy. He first gave his views on the philosophy of grammar some twenty years ago; and they were, at that time, well received, particularly in Alabama, where he met with a most favorable reception as an author. In accordance with his views thus express ed, be has prepared a large Grammar of the English Language, thorough and comprehensive. The plan differs very considerably trom that of any other grammarian, and yet it seems to be simple and philosophical, and is worthy of a careful and impartial examination from those who are interested in the cause of education. Lm and His Generals ; by Cspt. Wn. P. Snow. New York: Richardson and Cos.; 640 Broadway. 1867. This is a large and handsome volume written in a pleasing and attractive way, and gotten out in Hichardson’s hand somest style. It is a work that should be in the library of every Southern household aud public institution, con taining, as it does, a fair and impartial record of the lives and heroic deeds of the gallant men who led the armies of the South iu the great contest for South ern independence. The volume con tains several portraits of Confederate Generals, illnstrrHtive of the text. Womks or tuc South, Distinguished in Lit crature. Illustrated with Portraits un Meet.

The Woman of the South 1 Glorious theme for the author or the poet 1 Here is a volume, hansomcly bound and illus trated, recording the lives of sonic of the principal female authors of the South—deficient in only that it does net record them nil. Bat «ach names as LeVert, Ritchie, Mc- Intosh, Terhune, Johnson, Evans, and French, arc grouped together here in a most pleasing style, by one of the pleasantest writers of the South—Mary Forest. Her graceful pen does her subject ample justice, and “in thoughts that breathe and words that burn,"’ por trays sketches that must be well received and should bs preserved by every lover of the South and her glorious women.

New York: C. B. Richardson, Ml Broad way. ISM. This is an interesting and fair account of the operations of the Federal Army of the Potomac, Irorn 1861 to 1865. It is by a Northern writer, and is com piled from official and authentic sources. It is evidently a valuable publication, as a part of the history of the late great civil war. Southern History of the War. By K. A. Pollanl. Editor of the Richmond Exami ner. Two Volume! in One. hew York: C. B. Richardson, MO, Broadway. .886. Mr. Pollard is undoubtedly one of the ablest writers in the country, and every thing that comes from his vigorous pen is worthy of perusal. The present His tory of the War gives the Southern view of the contest and the causes which led to it; and written in an easy and grace ful style renders it very readable and interesting. It is an excellent work for present reading aud future reference; nnd is beautifully printed and substan tially bound, as are all of tbe publica tions which come from the prolific press of Mr. Richardson.
