INTERNATIONAL SERIES.

The International Series of the AMERICAN JOURNAL OF EDUCATION will consist of three volumes of at least 800 pages each-and will be devoted to the completion (as far as practicable) of subjects presented in the previous Series, and a Historical Survey of National Systems, Institutions, and Methods of Instruction in the light which the former volumes of the Journal may contribute, and the material brought together by the International Exposition of 1876 at Philadelphia is expected to furnish. Each number will contain 200 pages, and the three volumes will be illustrated by three Portraits from steel plates, and one hundred wood-cuts.

THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF EDUCATION, International Series, will be published quarterly: viz., on the 15th January, April, July, and October.

All subscriptions payable in advance. All communications relating to the Journal and other publications of the Editor may be addressed to HENRY BARNARD,

P. O. Box U, Hartford, Conn. PROF. QUICK, author of Educational Reformers, in an article in the English Monthly Journal of Education for July, 1875, writes:

Those who know the wealth of German pædeutical literature often lament the poverty of our own. But many a man has hunted for his spectacles while they were on his forehead; and many a reader in this country has groped about in the twilight of a foreign language for what he might have seen in the broad daylight of his own. .. Indeed, the history of education and treatises upon everything connected with education may be read without having recourse to any foreign literature whatever. This will no doubt seem very startling; but we can assure our readers that we are not speaking without book, or indeed without the very books we are talking of. We have before us the chief educational works that have been published in the United States, and we find that we already have a large educational literature in our own language. A great deal of this literature owes its origin to the energy and educational zeal of one man, the Hon. Henry Barnard, who was the first "Commissioner of Education" in the United States. Many years ago he formed "a plan of a series of publications to be issued monthly or quarterly, and devoted exclusively to the History, Discussion, and Statistics of Systems, Institutions and Methods of Education in different countries." This plan he has carried out on a grand scale, and we now have his "American Journal of Education" in 24 volumes of seven or eight hundred pages each. An index to the whole work will be published shortly, and the title might then very fitly be changed to Barnard's Cyclopædia of Education. This great work, however, can never be generally accessible to the majority of students. The price alone (£20) must exclude it from private libraries. But it may be consulted at public libraries, at the British Museum e. g., and at South Kensington, and it is a mine which may be very profitably worked by the editors of Educa tional Journals in this country.

But it is now no longer necessary to purchase the whole of the "American Journal" in order to get particular papers in it. Dr. Barnard has lately issued a great number of these papers as separate publications. To show what stores of literature already exist in English we publish the list (600 titles) at the end of this number. PROF. HODGSON, Edinburgh University, one of the most practical and vigorous educators of the age, in an Address before The Educational Institute of Scotland in September, 1875, spoke of the want of a History of Education in the English Language, but in a prefatory note to the pamphlet edition of the Address adds:

Since this Address was printed, my friend Mr. Quick has called my attention to Dr. Barnard's American Journal of Education, which really contains, though not in continuous form, a history, and, it may be said, an encyclopædia of education. Papers extracted from it, to the number of six or seven hundred, may now be purchased separately. A list of these is published at the end of the Monthly Journal of Education for July last. [Dr. Barnard, it is understood, will in 1876-7 issue a continuous and comprehensive History of Education, more complete so far as British and American Systems and Institutions are concerned than Raumer, Fritz, Schmid, or Palmer.]

THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF EDUCATION-from 1856 to 1873-comprises 24 Volumes (30,000 octavo pages), with 800 wood-cuts of structures for educational purposes and 125 portraits of eminent educators and teachers. Price, $120 in cloth; $132 in half goat; Single Volume in cloth $5.00, in half goat $5.50.

Current Volume in four numbers (International Series), $4.00; Single number, $1.25.
