Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Extracts From a Report of J. Lancaster´s Progress: From the Year 1798; With the Report of the Finance Committee; For the Year 1810; To Which Is Prefixed an Address of the Committee for Promoting the Royal Lancasterian System; For the Education of the Poor They surround our tables, they surround our beds, they inhabit our nurseries. Our lives; our properties; the minds, and the health of our children, are to an inconceivable degree dependent upon their good or evil qualities. According to the system which Mr. Lancaster has not only established, but already reduced to practice, and of the practical efficacy of which the most satisfactory experience has now been obtained, the children of the poor, before they are old enough to work, can be completely taught the valuable acquirements of reading, writing, and arithmetic, at an expense, even in the metropolis, of little more than five shillings per annum for each. It follows evidently from this most important fact, that by a combination requiring very slender efforts among the benevolent and public-spirited members of the community, those useful attainments may be extended to the whole of the rising generation, and the pious wish of the Sovereign be fully accomplished, "That Every Poor Child in the Kingdom Should be Able to Read the Bible." The points of utility naturally connected with this event are of two kinds, and both in the highest degree important. The first respects the purposes to which the faculties in question might be turned in the different offices which devolve upon the lower orders. The second respects the frame of mind which is created during, and by the acquirement. 1. It is surely unnecessary to point out the innumerable modes in which the faculties of reading, writing, and accounting, render the lower orders more useful coadjutors to us on those occasions in which we stand in need of their services; as domestics, as artisans, as manufacturers, as persons intrusted with the guardianship, the transfer, the improvement of our property in a thousand ways.
