PUBLISHED FOR THE PROPRIETORS, BY OLIPHANT, EDINBURGH; CURRY & Co., DUBLIN; RUTHERGLEN & Co., GLASGOW. I ventured to address you on behalf of an old Public Servant of Education suffering privation. With a generous promptitude you responded to my application, and by means of the “ Royal Bounty," afforded timely relief to one who has “Done the State some Service.” In dedicating this work to you, I take the opportunity, therefore, of thanking you, in the name of the scholastic profession generally; and would thus record the sense which the friends both of public and private Education entertain, of your sympathy for the Schoolmaster. |
