NOTE. The large figures in the following Blackboard Exercises refer to para

graphs in the Constitution of the United States, printed in the author's work entitled Analysis of Civil Government."

It is recommended that the teacher require the pupil to commit thoroughly to memory the following Blackboard Exercises, so that he can place them on the board with perfect readiness; and also that the pupil be required to become entirely familfar with the Constitutional explanations referred to by the large figures, as well as with the annotations in Part II. of the author's work on Civil Government.
