THE

American Journal of Education.

RETROSPECT AND PROSPECT-1878.

EXTRACT from a letter dated London, Jan. 9, 1878, of Rev. R. H. Quick, recently a teacher in Harrow School, and author of a valuable treatise on 'Educational Reformers,' republished by R. Clark & Co., Cincinnati, and one of the soundest and most active educators of England—

"The new edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica has a sketch of the history of Education, by Oscar Browning, [late of Eton]. I saw the proofs. In the account of authorities the article has the following:

“In English, though we have no investigators of the history of Education, we have a fairly large literature on the subject, but it belongs almost exclusively to the United States. The great work of Henry Barnard, The American Journal of Education, in 25 volumes, has valuable papers on almost every part of our subject-many of them translated from the German, but there are also original papers on our old English educational writers with extracts from their works. This is by far the most valuable work in our language on the history of educa tion."

EXTRACT from a letter addressed to Rev. R. H. Quick, London, by the editor and publisher of the American Journal of Education, dated Jan. 24, 1878.

"I thank you for your continued interest in the American Journal and Library of Education. It was begun, and has been continued to supply deficiencies in our American Educational literature; and hence I have drawn largely on the best productions of the foreign press. Forty years ago (1838), I could not find a half dozen volumes on School Systems, or the Principles and Practice of Education, in New York and Boston; and I could not induce a publisher to issue an American edition of Dunn's excellent little work on Principles of Teaching, edited by Thomas H. Gallaudet (a friend of Mr. Dunn), until I gave a written guarantee that I would assume all the copies of the publication at the end of two years—and I did take the balance of the edition at that date, and placed them in the School Libraries established by me in Connecticut and Rhode Island. Ten years later (1848), I was puzzled to make up for the first edition of my School Architecture a list of books on education (occupying one octavo page), on schools and school systems for the use of school officers and parents; and on the theory and practice of teaching for the professional instruction of teachers. For a time I ordered from London copies of pamphlets and volumes on educational subjects, and disposed of them to teachers and educators at cost-but this involved trouble, loss, and misunderstanding; and after a pretty wide consultation among the prominent school men, and pledges of co
