One great design of this work is to cultivate, in the young, habits of observation and of reflection, to induce in them a desire for knowledge; it is written, as the author believes, in a religious spirit, and calculated, as he hopes, to be of service to those for whom it is intended. In order that it may be used as a lesson-book by teachers, numerous questions are appended to each section, and the meanings of the longer words, which it was found necessary to use, have been made plain by a reference to their derivatives.
