An essay on the History of the Philosophy 

 of Pedagogics, by Charles W. Bennett, LL. D., 

 has been published in book form (Bardeen, 

 50 cents). It sketches the attempts that 

 have been made during the past four or five 

 centuries to base education upon some one 

 principle. The educational work of the re- 

 ligious reformers, abstract theological educa- 

 tion, Jesuitism, Jansenism, pietism, realism, 

 humanism, and deism are passed in review, 

 and freedom of activity is described as the 

 final stage. Portraits of leaders of educa- 

 tional thought, from Erasmus to Froebel, are 

 inserted in the text. 



In The Educational Labors of Henry 

 Barnard, by Will 8. Monroe (Bardeen, 50 

 cents), have been chronicled a series of efforts 

 for the uplifting and advancement of educa- 

 tion that have seldom been equaled in value. 

 State Superintendent of Education in Con- 

 necticut from 1838 to 1842 and 1851 to 1855, 

 holding the same office in Rhode Island from 

 1842 to 1849, President of the University of 

 Wisconsin, and later of St. John's College at 

 Annapolis, and United States Commissioner 

 of Education from 1867 to 1870, Mr. Barnard 

 has had many and important fields of useful- 

 ness. In 1855 he founded the American Jour- 

 nal of Education, of which thirty-one vol- 

 umes have been issued. Four portraits of 

 Mr. Barnard and a bibliography of his writ- 

 ings are included in the volume.
