EXPLANATORY REMARKS. In the foregoing table the rates under the head "Imperial"

are the duties imposed by the Parliament of Great Britain, and those under the head of" Colonial" are the duties im­posed by the 'Parliament of Canada; An additional column is given, showing, where pi'acticable, the total amount of duty on articles in dollars and cents, but where one duty is ad valorem and the other specific, this column only represents the specific duty.

The duties imposed by Colonial are in additioq to those imposed \>.y' Imperial enactment. The ad valorem duties un­der the Imperial Act are calculated by adding 10 per cent to the invoice prlcer and those under Provincial enactment on the actual cost of the articles where purchased, except as respects Eggs, Game, Poultry and Vegetables, the duties on which' are calculated upon the value of the articles at the place ,of importation, such value being generally ascertained by adding 10 pel' cent to the actual cost.

Specific duties are tak~n in Sterling at the rate of 248. 4d. Currency to the pound sterling.

Bonds mILy be t!tken for the payment of Provincial duties when the nnlount exceeds fifty pounds currency, excepting those upon the fullowing ::-~.tfay, Hops, Poultry and Game, Vegetables, and:the' articles which are mentioned under the respective heads of, Grain and Pxovisions.

Goods may be'warehoused at any: duly constituted ware; housing'port, lind may lile entel'ed at any frontiel' porI, under wnd, to be plIs$ed~n,foil' that purpose, .

28

The Congt'es~ ofthi! IT J1itsl States recently"pftSsed an Act allowing Dl'awback on merchandize exported to the British American PI'ovinces, but goods imported in this:manner pay both Imperial and Colonial duty, whether they were origi. mlly the growth, production 01' m'l.nufacture of the United Kingdom or of any of the British Possessions, or of foreign countries.

Hardware is understood to include every kind of goods manufactured from inetals.

With reference to the exemptions from duties of persons coming inte the Province as seulers, in the opinion of the L:lw Officer of the Crown, Cattle and live stock of all des­criptions, such as Horses, Cows, &c., when brought in for the use of persons coming into the province for the purpose of actually residing therein, do not fall within the meaning of the words "other personal elfeots," nor within any of the exemDtions specially mentioned in the schedule annexed to the above mentioned Act, and are consequently subject to duty.

Adelaide Buildin!;., Toronto, September 1, 1345.

HUGH SCOBIE.

Notices of G. & J. Gonintoclt's Geograpby., lately published by Hugb Scobie, rroronto.

"The above work has been submitted to several heads of schools and has received their unqualified approval, ad"ption, and rccom­mendation. It will be found 10 contain a greater quantity of useful information, gengraphicul, topographical, and statIstical, than any work of the size extant."-Britisk Coloni.t.

"This System of General Geography is adapted to the interro­gative mode of tuiti"n, embracing also the outlines of an elementary course, Scripture Gellgraphy, an introduction to Astronomy, and problems on maps and the globes. It also contains what has here­tofore been a desideratum in all our geographies, about eight pages on British America, and appears altogether a very creditable publi­cation, both to the authors and to the publisher."-Examiner.

"From the concise manner in which it is drawn up, we consider it a work well ,adapted to the instruction of youth, und would recommend all teachers to introduce it into their schools."­Toronto Slur.

"The plan of this very useful work is admirably suitable to tho purpose for which it is designed, nnd the execution appears higbly satisfactory. We recommend it to the attention of aIt engaged in the mnnagement of .chools, in the full expectation to see it becomll one of the class books of Canada."-Niagara Chronicle.

A

2 "Its plan is simple and well arranged, and, the work is "ery

comprehensi\·c. As a general reference book It IS vulnalJle, o.s l,t

gives the chief statistical fcatures of ever), country on tile globe.' -Tui"rJ/d·j .'li,-,.ul".

"This work, which has been compiled nnd arrnn~('rI for the use of schools in I3ntish N"rth America, is on a. cOlnprt.'her:~ive plan, nnd include~ not m':lrely the elements of (]"('gruphy, as npphcnble to the dlfierent countrif's of the world, but enters upon n o.c-'crtpt I In of their natural peculiarities, productions. manufactures, nnd COmme,"2C; and con'nin~, in addition, n copious lilt roductioD to astronomy and the use of tile globes."-Toronlo lifl'ald.

E,tr,,,'t of a Letter from the Rol'. R. H Thornton, Superin­tendent of E.I'I'aclon for toe TOlVn,hip 0" \VlJitby, t,) \Ir. Scobie:

I have carefully enmincd G. & J. G'1llinlock's Geo;!raphy, lately published by YOII, and am happy t" find it a vaillabl·· c"'llp'nllilim of geogrn!Jhy, both beca1lse of the information It contain:; and of its adaptati',n tlJ the commun schools of the pffJ'.lncc. Tile arrangce ment of the work is good, and such as, \y,th t,he ex ·rci~,.·s, will almost of nece.::sily le:ld a teacher, of even small exreflence, to adopt a tolerably correct methud of teaching its C<lll'.r-nt~.

The mode 3rlopted by the compliers, to give DS5istance towards n. correct pronunciation of the proper names, is sjlJlpl", o.n,l will be highly ,.llled by many whose opportunities uf acqUiring accuracy in their pronunciation have been lllnited.

Thr ,"aloc of the work, as a text bonk for 8chno!.~, is, I conceive, greatly enhanced by the Outline of Scripture G,·,,;!r"I'I,y. Some­thing of the kind is essential wherev£ I' the Scripfurp.:3 lICC employed as. reading- book; and this work supplies what I have heard many wish to obtain, as an aid to their general perusal of the sacred volume.-81 jltrmber ~4'h, 1845 •

.. This work, of which we highly approve, cert,inly contains a great 'l"Olllity of topograhical and statistical i"rormation most useful to all, who de'lre to make the science ofGeo!,!:r.phy a~ object of study. The details regarding t',e Iritish posses"ions on this contlDent, are very ample, and such as should be in the possession of every well-regulated school in the Province."-Brocktille Statesman.

3 .. This work forms a neatly bound volume of abeut 250 pa"e.,

and appears to combine as much practical information on "the subject as it is possible to compress within that extent, and to be on the whole correct in its stalements. Although concise, is suffiCiently descriptive to give the learner a comprehensive know­ledge of the various coulltries of the globe, and we commend it to the notice of teachers and parents."-Kingston Herald.

"This little work embraces a great deal of usef,,1 information for 8chools, and we take the opportunity of recommending it to the notice of school commissioner:::; and teachers.-Kingston Chronicle f Gazette.

" This work is obviously the result of a great deal of patient labour nnd persevering attention; its arrangement is simple, pro­gre.sive, and compendious. ''''" remark With pleasllre, that the imparting- of the proper pronunciation of names is attcnucd tOj and we conhally commend rt to the aliention of teachers, and this we do the more confidently, as we understand the authors are teachers of long experience and extensive pr~:ct!f'f' themsclrcs, and therefure may be presllmed to be competent judges of what is required to tacilitate the pro!(ress uf learners in this or any particular branch of kno\\' kl!g0. \\'i):ch ftl:ly occupy their attention and engage their pens.-Jloflll'nt! (/(/::.;c{{c.

"The good opinion formed from the title, is not disappointed on nn ('xanJinution of the work. ~o great an amount of useful infor­mation is not often presented in as small a compass, or more inte­resting shn pe. 'V c shall keep it by us as a useful book of reference."-,St. Catlwrlnes JlJurnal.

"It is admirably adapted for the use of British American schools; the design of the work is ex celie nt, and most ably has the design been carried out by the authors, who deserve the thanks of the public of the British provinces."-Trv' ('s/v,'k Herald.

"We have much pleasure in stating that Mes"s. G. & J. Gouin­lock, who \\'ere so very successful in the completion of une of the best arithmetic" extnnt, are in this instance also entitled to the gratitude of the Canariian public, for such an excellent manual of Geography as the one before us, which we consider. to be a deSIde­ratum in our provincial schools."-Bralltford Courter.

"We have been favored with a copy of this excelient work, by the publisher, Mr. Scobie of Toronto, which for its comprehensive information, and judicious arrangement, is, perhaps unequalled; and shows an originality of design not before attempted nn thIS contt­nent, but which the authors Beem to have con,~etved WIth lU?gment and maturelY ana satisfactorily accomplished. -London Time..

"This System of Geoj!'raphy, Astronomy, usc of Globes, k •. upon the improved plan, of qlle;tions Bubjoined to each section or cbapter, by which the memnry or the pupil and the extent to which he has mastered the Bubject of his studie., is tested, we can consd­entiously recommend fpr the use of school., or privale tuilion. The authorB have already given 10 the public, an excellent trealise on Arithmetic."-Peterboro' (;{l:dtc.

Extract of a letter from Mr. P. Thornton, Superintendent of Scbools, Hamilton, to Mr. Scubie:

"I bave examined the Geogrnphy which you have just published, and have no he:lltatilln in !:laying th,lt, ns n CanadiltU School Geo~ grophy, it 15 far superior 10 any thing Ihat has hitherto been offered to the publio. The S(,rlptllre Geography is a fenlure wlilch greatly enhances it~ value in schools where the sacred scriptures nre perusedt

and ought tn be a strong recommendation in its favour."-23rd October, J 845.
