Excerpt from The District School as It Was: Scenery-Showing, and Other Writings The following work was first published in Boston in 1833, and. Was received with unqualified favor. A second and larger edition was issued in New York, with equal success. Several hundred of this edition were purchased by a distinguished friend of education, in a neighboring State, ' (henry Barnard, Esq., of Conn.) and dis tributed for the purpose of suggesting ideas of reform. It was republished in London a few years ago, as giving a faith ful description of one of the Institutions of New England. It is hoped that it will be deemed particularly appropriate to School Libraries, and not unsuited to others; that it will be sought as an agreeable gift-book from Teachers to Pupils; and lastly, that it will ever be of historical use to rising generations, educated under better auspices, as exhibiting a true and graphic picture of' The District School as it Was.'
