Excerpt from An Elementary Arithmetic: Designed for Academies and Schools: Also Serving as an Introduction to the Higher Arithmetic In offering the present edition of Perkins' Elementary Arithmetic lo the public, the Publishers desire to call attention to what they deem the peculiar merits of the work. I. They regard as a prominent feature of the book, the presence throughout of the distinguished mathematical mind of the Author. It is not everything labelled "an explanation," in an Arithmetic, that brings reasons to view j nor every operation marked an "analysis" that reveals principles or essential relations. There is still a "lower deep" where the ground-matter lies; and this we think Professor Perkins has ploughed on. The examiner may select, at random, proofs of this radical excellence. We, therefore, believe that the Arithmetic which we submit, is peculiarly adapted to discipline the minds of those who study it, in the science of Numbers, and to advance them to a higher level of intellectual capability; in short, to train them fitly for advanced departments in Mathematics. We are confident that the present work will maintain a longer than usual hold on the interest of both teachers and pupils; for it is not, like a cistern, to be exhausted by a few drawings, but like nature's reservoirs, it has the fountain within itself. II. The Publishers would present as another excellence of the book, its freedom from minute repetitional details which cumber a page, and obstruct a pupil's progress. It is believed that no principle is left unelucidated; and that new light is thrown upon many, heretofore imperfectly illustrated.

Excerpt from A Practical Arithmetic, Designed for Grammar Schools Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1880, by george E. Seymour, In the Othee of the Librarian of Congress. At Washington. The Elementary Arithmetic and the Practical Arithmetic are de signed to embrace all those subjects usually found in the more voluminous series of Arithmetics now in very general use. By a methodical arrangement of topics, all unnecessary repetition has been avoided; and by giving prominence to those subjects alone which are the key to the science of Arithmetic, brevity has been secured without sacrificing either fulness or clearness of treatment. No attempt has been made to make the book either a complete dictionary of mathematical terms or a mere encyclopaedia of useful mathematical knowledge. Arithmetic should be regarded in the school-room both as a science and as an art: as a science, so far as it deals with the principles which underlie its processes and its rules; and as an art, so far as it exemplifies these rules and these processes in their varied applications in solving problems that arise in the business of every-day life.

Excerpt from Higher Arithmetic: Designed for the Use of High Schools, Academies, and Colleges In preparing this edition, the whole work has been carefully revised, and many of the subjects re-written and modified, with a view to make them more clearly comprehended by the pupil. Having explained fully, in the Elementary Arithmetic, the subjects of Duodecimals and Alligation, we have omitted them in the present edition. We have excluded the chapter on Permutations, Combinations, and Variations, to make room for what we deemed matter of more importance. We have also placed the chapters on the Progressions after Evolution, because several cases under the Progressions are brought by the aid of Evolution. Under the first chapter, we have added some new things concerning Prime Numbers, and have explained the use of Eratosthene's Sieve in finding these numbers. After Continued Fractions, we have added Lambert's Method of De-compounding Vulgar Fractions. We have given a new rule for the Equation of Payments, under the subject of Discount. This rule is deduced from considering the equivalent present values. By this method, we discover that the usual rule is erroneous, if we consider the present value of the several debts. We have added the answers to all the questions; and, where we thought the operations too difficult, we have either given the whole work, or so much as to leave nothing to perplex the beginner. In all these modifications we have been guided, not only by our own practical experience in using the book, but by the many kind suggestions which have been received from distinguished teachers.
