    Tliese hooks are intended to serve for the use of practical men, as well as for exact instruction in the subjects of which they treat ; ami it is hoped that, while retaining that logical clearness and simple sccpience of thought which are essential to the making ol a good scientific treatise, the style and subject-matter will be found to be within the comprehension of working men, and suited to their wants. The books wilt not be mere manuals for immediate application, nor University text-books, in which mental training is the foremost object; but are meant to be practical treatises, sound and exact in their logic, and with CT’cry theory and every process reduced to the stage of direct and useful application, and illustrated by well-selected examples from familiar processes and facts. It is hoped that the publication of these books— in addition to other useful results—will tend to the leading up of Artisans to become Candidates for the WiriTWORTii Scholarships. The following is a list of the books intended for early publication in the Elementary Series, to be followed by others on other branches of Science : — 1. TECHNICAL ARITHMETIC AND MENSURATION. I’y C.
