Introduction To The National Arithmetic On The Inductive System

Excerpt from Introduction to the National Arithmetic: On the Inductive System; Combining the Analytic The following treatise is intended for that class of pupils, who may not have sufficient time to read the larger work on this science, published by the author a few years since, and which has had extensive circulation. It is believed, that this book contains all, that is necessary to prepare the young for the common avocations of life. If the student wishes to obtain an extensive and full knowledge of this science, he can consult the National Arithmetic. It has been a great object with the author to render the work practical; how far he has succeeded, the public must judge. The questions are original, although there may be a similarity between some of these and others, which are before the public, and which could not be well avoided. Although the author has carefully examined every question, yet, it is possible, some few mistakes may be found in this work. These, however, will be corrected in a future edition. With these few prefatory remarks, the author commends this small volume to the candor of an enlightened Public.
