EXPLANATION.
The Table, on the opposite page, or one constructed upon the same principles, is to be
bound in, or otherwise placed at the beginning of a blank volume of faint-lined paper,
ruled with head-line, and a left-hand margin of about an inch and a half in width.
This blank book is presumed to be divided into twenty-six chapters, A, B, C, D, E,
F, &c., and each chapter, except Q*, into six sections, a, e, i, o, u, y--the chapter, the
rection, and the folio being indicated at the head of each page.
By this arrangement, the opposite Table is a perpetual DIRECTORY, pointing to the
chapter, section, and page of the blank book, where every entry is to be made, however
numerous the names or various the subjects within the scope indicated. In this respect,
it differs entirely from other indexes, which are usually constructed to suit the entries
already made ; and from other alphabets, which usually occupy as many pages as there
are letters; and at the same time, it differs from both, by giving at a glance a synopsis
of the whole arrangement of the book, and the system of classification and apportion.
ment, which are more fully explained upon the back of the Table, page 4.
As a Common-place Book, his blank volume becomes the repository for original
thoughts, extracts, abstracts, &c., indeed for memoranda of every needful variety; and,
at the same time, it is gradually becoming an Universal Index of reference to every
subject of interest within the range of human knowledge, so far as the proprietor may
see fit to extend his research and inake minutes of the same; and it may be filled up by
each individual for himself, as inclination, ability, and circumstances may enable him,
from youth to old age ; and is such a book as no man should be without.
The capital letters, vowels, and large figures in the table, refer to the pages of the
General Index or volume; the small figures show the number of names or of pages, to
which each chapter and each section is entitled according to calculation.
When an entry or memorandum is to be made, observe the following
DIRECTIONS.
If a subject begin with A, place it in chapter A. If with M, P, L, S, W, or any
other letters, put it in the chapter of the same name as the initial letter.
If, after the first letter of the word, the first vowel be a, let the word be put in section
a, of its proper chapter; and the same of e, i, o, u, or y. Against these vowels or sec.
tions are figures, referring to the page where the entry is to be made. The character.
istic word, name, or subject, should be distinctly and legibly written in the left-hand
margin of the book. This is particularly useful in reference ; for a number of words may
begin alike, as they do in a dictionary or directory, and are then to be sought in the
marginal column as words are sought in a dictionary or directory.
ILLUSTRATIONS.
In the word Adams, A is the first letter, and a the first vowel that follows after that
first letter, therefore this subject belongs to chapter A, section a, which is page
The word Boston, by the same rule, belongs to chapter B, section o, page
The word Philadelphia, to chapter P, section i, page . .
The words War and Washington, to chapter W, section a, page . .
282
The words Navy and Napoleon, to chapter N, section a, page
The words Congress and Constitution, to chapter C, section o, page
The word Tyler, to chapter T, section y, page.
273
The word Bank, to chapter B, section a, page .
18
The word Veto, to chapter V, section e, page
280
When a word begins with a towel, and has no other vowel after it, the first letter de.
termines both the chapter and the section to which the word belongs, viz, Mr. Olds
should be put in 0, 0, and Mr. Ash in A, a.
This system is so perfectly simple and easy, as to require no further explanation
though it may be gratifying, and perhaps instructive, to read the lecture which follows,
as it presents the advantages of method, and the disadvantages of its absence, in a va.
riety of imposing forms, which inus: convince every one that something has been here.
tofore wanting, lo supply which, is the object of the following Lecture, and the series of
Tables alluded to on the 4th page.
* As Q is always followed by u, the chapter need not be divided into sections.

NOTICE.
Several Tables have been constructed like the one on the first side of this leaf,
though graduated for different purposes, and for various quantities of blank book, viz: -
for a Universal Index, or Common-Place Book, of miscellaneous subjects—150, 300,
and 500 pages; and for men's names, 1250, 2500, 5000, and 10,000.
A Key or Guide has also been provided for the construction of Alphabets and Indexes
to Legers, publishers' mail books, the books of public offices, &c.
So far as the names of men are concerned, this guide is deduced from an analysis of
the following City Directories, viz :-Albany, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Balti.
more, Charleston, New Orleans, St. Louis, Cincinnati, and Pittsburg.
So far as miscellaneous subjects are embraced, the Tables are based upon the result
of a thorough examination of the following works, viz :-Webster's large Dictionary of
the English Language, Crabbe's Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences, Lempriere's
Classical Dictionary, McCulloch's Commercial Dictionary, Falconer's Marine Dictionary,
Tomlins' Law Dictionary, Hooper's Medical Dictionary, Cruden's Concordance, Brooks'
Universal Gazetteer of the World, Directory of the City of New York, Catalogue of
14,000 Post-offices in the United States, Scripture Names of Men and Women, Index to
Digests of the Laws of the United States, and of the State of New York; to the Ency.
clopedia Americana; and lastly, 10 the catalogues of the three great libraries—that of
Harvard University, at Cambridge, Mass.; Philadelphia Library; and the Library of
Congress, at Washington.
To correct the predominance of French names in one city, German in another, Maco
in a third, and Vans in a fourth, the aggregate of all the names in all the aforementioned
directories was ascertained ; next, the aggregate of all the names beginning with A,
with B, with C, and so on through the Alphabet; and lastly, all having the vowel
a, e, i, o, u, y, after the initial letter. From these results, Tables are made to !
exhibit the proportional number of names which will probably fall under each initial and
each vowel in the leger of a merchant, banker, or publisher, who may have 1250, 2500,
5000, or 10,000 patrons or customers. The same investigation was resorted to in refer.
ence to the miscellaneous subjects embraced in the miscellaneous works enumerated,
and the same in reference to post offices, to determine the relative frequency of names
likely to commence with each particular letter. On the same page of the guide
is shown the relative frequency of all the individual letters of the English alphabet, em.
ployed for all purposes, as set forth in a late edition of the London Typefounders' Scale.
This last, so far as the relative frequency of each vowel is concerned, is important in the
construction of alphabetical indexes, especially as a great number of names of persons,
places or subjects, cannot be readily referred to without the aid of the vowels as well
as the initials.
Persons who have ever attempted the construction, renewing or remodelling of such
an alphabet or index, even for their own use, will readily appreciate the convenience of
the Key or Guide here alluded to.
Copyrights have been secured, and plates stereotyped for these Tables, and they will
soon be for sale by booksellers and stationers throughout the United States.
Price of Key to Universal Index, 10 cents for every 100 pages of Blank Book for
which the key is calculated ; that is, 15 cents for a blank book of 150 pages; 30 cents
for a blank book of 300 pages, and 50 cents for a blank book of 500 pages. This is the
price of the Index, including the privilege of copyright to apply it to books as directed.
Price of Index to men's names, 10 cents for each 1000 names; that is, 50 cents for a
Key to a Leger or Book for 5000 names, etc. etc. Lecture &c. at the end of Blank Book.

NOTICES.
The following are a few of the numerous notices which have appeared in different parts of the United
States since the publication of the foregoing work-others are omilled, for want of room.
From the Knickerbocker.-We have received from M. T. C. Gould, the distinguished Stenographer, and
copy of a work, which in the hands of every body, will be of the greatest service. It is entitled, Gould's
Universal Index, and Every Body's Own Book, with directions for saving time, acquiring knowledge, and
having it at command through lite, by means of an appropriate alphabetical and numerical key: designed
for the use of schools and colleges in the United States: for professional men, lovers of literature and sci-
ence, politicians, men of business, and for all who think witha Franklin that time is money--that a penny
saved is worth two eamed; or, with Solomon, that knowledge is better than tine gold," and Wisdom
better than rubics." Mr. Gould numbers among bis subscribers all the most eminent men of the nation,
who have exp.tased the moal uliquanbod approbation of the plan. It deserves the aru plest success.
From the New York Standard.--We find uſ on our table a brief, but neatly printed quarto publication,
wi:h the following title, viz:- Gould's Unirersal Inder, and Every Body's Own Book, &c., &c.
From a pretty attentive examination of the contents of this work, we have no doubt of its superiority
over any thing that has before appeared, having a similar object in view. The same opinion has been
expressed, we discover, by numerous distinguished individuals throughout the United States, who have
already become patrous of the work.
It proposes, in addition to what is expressed by the title, to aid all classes in the important work of be-
coming more systematic and methodical, in the classification and arrangement of their various knowledge
through life, and that each man shall wiite at least one book, which he may call - my own book," and
which book shall be, in fact, a General Inder to all his reading and knowledge tiom youth to old age.
The plan is so simple as to be understood by a child, and yet so comprehensive as to embrace every
conceivable subject within the circle of human knowledge. We unders and that the author is preparing
a series of blank-books, of different sizes and prices, to suit various classes. The one which we have seen
is not unlike the specimens of Indri kerum and Common-place Book already in use, though got up in su-
perior style; but at the commencement of such book is placed the publication now under consideration,
which presents upon a single page a key, or directory, pointing to the pages upon wbich various items are
to be posted, like so many entries in a merchant's leger.
The process by which the author has arrived at a judicious division of space among the several letters
of the alphabet, is both novel and ingenious; and though atlended with great labor, is probably the only
one by which equal accuracy could have been attained.
Having ruled iwenty six perpendicular columns, and placed at their head the letters of the alphabet, he
proceeded to ascertain, and place in appropriate columns the relative frequency of each letter, as shown
by about 300 ditferent alphabets, employed for as many different objects.
The frequency of each initial letter in each and all these alphabets was ascertained, and the results be-
ing arranged under each other in the 26 colunins, were added up, and thus the fair average deterinined.
Next was ascertained by the ty petounder's scale and printer's cases, the relative frequency of the vow
els, and the combined results of these various investigations formed the basis of calculation, upon which
tables are constructed ard stereotyped for 150, 300, and 500 pages of a blank-book, and one of these tables
is placed at the beginning of each book.
In addition to this the author has turnished a very comprehensive and instructive lecture upon the sub-
ject, and a classification of the libraries alluded to, which cannot fail to be interesting and instructive.
Judging by what we have seen, and by the favor which the work has already received from many of
the most distinguished and talented men in the nation, we doubt not that it will find a ready sale, and
richly compensate the author for his arduous labor.
from the National Intelligencer, Washington City.-Universal Index.--We find upon our table a new
publication in quarto form with a title-page as follows, viz: " Gould's Universal Inden," &c.
The page following the title explains the application of the work to the objects proposed, gives directions
for carrying the same into execution, and juustrates the process by examples. It divides a blank-book
into 26 chapters, A, B, C, D, E, & C., and each chapter into 6 sections, a, e, i, o, u, y, and presents a sy
nopsis of this classification upon a single page at the commencement of the blank volume. This synopsis,
then, is a directory, by which all entries are to be made, in their appropriate places throughout the book,
no matter how diversified the subjects, so that, by the use of the same directory as an inder, the various
subjects can at all times be referred to as we refer to a word in a dictionary.
This is followed by a lecture and illustrations; and, as a whole, it strikes us as both ingenious and
useful. It is extremely simple, and easily understood, though it has cost much labor, as will be evident
to all who examine it. It costs but 50 cents, and is for sale by the booksellers.
From the Madisonian, Washington City - Universal Inder, and Errry Body's Oron Book.-We have
just been shown a new publication, with the above tile, and are satistied, by a monient's inspection, that
it is an ingeniously devised plan for "saving time, acquiring knowledge, and having it at command
through life, by means of an appropriate alphabetical and numerical key" to the reading and knowledge
of our whole lives.
The Kcy spoken of occupies but one page, but is followed by a Lecture and other illustrations, which
are to be bound at the commencement of a blank volumewluch volume, it is asserted, should be in the
hands of every individual, that every body may write at least one book, not for others, but for himself,
and that such book, thus written according to the directions given, shall be a diary, journal, common-place
book, and also an Univereal Index to all the knowledge of the individual who writes it.
We have determined to try it, and recommend others to do likewise.
From the Globe, Washington City.--Every Body's Oron Book, to be written by himself, herself, and
themselves, according to each and every, of his, her, and their own fancy, inclination, and ability, &c.
But, to be more explicit, we must acknowledge that we have been gratified, not only by the presenta-
tion, but by the brief eramination of Goulil's C'niversal Index, &c.; the object of which, as set forth, is,
to teach men method, system, order, and a judicious arrangement of their intellectual goods, wares, and
merchandise, in such manner and form that they may be fortlicoming and available in time of need, rather
than lost and forgotten, for want of registry and an index.
The publication which we are trying to nouce is in a quarto form, of some 30 pages, to be prefixed to a
Blank volume of 300 or 500 pages, according to the requirements of each particular individual.
It is beautifully printed, on fine paper, and costs but 50 cents and we see, by the cover, that it is for
sale at tbe bookstores


THE MORNING COURIEB AND NEW YORK ENQUIRER. Gould's Universal Index, and Every Body's Own
Book, &c. &c. By Marcus T. C. Gould. George F. Cooledge, 374 Pearl-street. Mr. Gould, the author
of this admirable organum, is the eminent Stenographer, and he has really elaborated a system which strikes
us as being the most admirable help to a methodical disposition of time and labor that has ever been invented.
The index is the result of calculations immense enough and complicated enough, one would think, to have
required the unremitted application of half an industrious man's life, and is withal so simple, ofter it is ar-
rived at, that the mere child may understand it without difficulty, and use it with intimite profit and advan-
tage. We cannot help believing that a system so well calculated to benefit "every body," will be adopted.
Sure we are that as many as do adopt it will find themselves well repaid, and always feel grateful to Mr.
Gould for putting them upon such a track.
NEW YORK AMERICAN A Universal Inder, and Every Body's Own Book. We are quite persuaded that
the method here offered by Mr. Gould for keeping a common-place book, will, in practice, be found an im-
provement upon that of Locke. The plan is founded upon the general notion of mercantile book-keeping.
Merchants and other business men, by means of a day-book, journal, leger, and alphabet, are enabled to
know, at any time, the amount, the whereabouts, and the condition of their various items of property ard
money. The utility and indispensability of such books and such system, have been long acknowledged by all.
The new system may be scarcely less useful for ideas than that for dollars. It looks to the safekeeping of
useful knowledge, in all cases where it is inconvenient, or deemed unsafe to trust the memory alone. It is
adapted to the requirements of all men who read, write, and think--of all who are, or may be, in possession
of appropriate materials for thinking, speaking, or writing.
The author says-"If facts were dollars, and ideas dimes or cents, they would not be trusted to memory
alone ; there would be some attempt at book-keeping, even in our schools and colleges, as well as in ou
counting-houses and business offices. And believing, with Solomon, that knowledge is better than fine
gold,' and that the materials of which it is composed are as liable to escape from the memory as the materi
als which constitute our perishable earthly riches, under the denomination of dollars and cents, I see no
good reason why a uniform system of literary book-keeping may not be brought into general use, having the
safe-keeping of useful knowledge solely in view,"
The plan which he proposes is certainly very ingenious--it is simple, and yet comprehensive. It has
been matured by great labor, and is approved by the ablest minds in the nation, and so far as we can per-
cnive, is hardly susceptible of improvement.
A single voluine is made to perform, by a single operation, the office of day-book, journal, leger, and alpha-
bet-though the order is completely reversed, making the first last and the last first. That useful and in-
dispensable accompaniment, an alphabet or index, is not leit idle, till entries shall have passed through
day-book and journal, into a leger ; but it stands first and foremost, to point out and direct where each and
every entry shall be made, giving chapter, section and page, and at the same time becoming responsible for
the forthcoming of such entries, on all future demands. A preliminary essay explains the whole mode of
proceeding.
THE NEW WORLD. Universal Inder, and Every Body's Own Buok. An improved stereotype edition,
published in the city of New York, and for sale by the booksellers.
This edition, which is a quarto form of over three hundred pages, is got up in beautiful style-the paper,
printing, and binding are good, and the price reasonable.
It is worthy of consideration, that this work, which was first published in Washington city in September
last, has, in less than six months, passed from a first to a third edition. We perceive that it has been
patronised and recommended by many distinguished literary gentlemen, well known to the American pub-
lic, whose autographs we have just examined in a volume of the Universal Index, now in possession of the
author, Mr. Gould.
Of what we have seen and heard of this Universal Index Rerum, or Commonplace Book, we have no doubt
of its happy adaptation to the objects proposed, viz: "saving time, acquiring knowledge, and having it at
command through life.” It is perfectly plain and comprehensible, and recommends itself, not only to pro-
fessional and literary men, but to business men of almost every grade--and, especially, to young men in
schools and colleges, and those who are studying professions, or endeavoring to treasure up useful know-
ledge for the journey of life.
There can hardly be a dissenting voice as to the utility of such a plan, or the fitness of the work under
consideration.
EVENING Post. N. YORK. Gould's Universal Index. This is a sort of common-place book, or Index
Rerum, prepared on a novel and improved plan, to instruct scholars in a method for saving time in the acqui-
sition of knowledge, and for having it at command through life, by means of an alphabetical and numerical
key. The author thinks it can be made of essential service to professional men, men of business, politi-
cians, &c.
The process by which he has arrived at a judicious division of space among the several letters of the
alphabet, is both novel and ingenious; and though attended with great labor, is probably the only one by
which equal accuracy could have been attained.
Having ruled twenty-six perpendicular columns, and placed at their head the letters of the alphabet, he
proceeded to ascertain the frequency of each initial letter, as shown by about 300 different alphabets, em-
ployed for as many different objects ; the results being arranged under each other in the twenty-six columns,
were added up, and thus the fair average determined.
Next was ascertained by the typefounder's scale, the printer's cases, and extensive count, the relative
frequency of the vowels; and the combined results of these various investigations formed the basis of calcu-
lation, upon which tables are constructed and stereotyped for 150, 300, and 500 pages of a blank-book, and
one of these tables is placed at the beginning of each book.
In addition to this, the author has furnished a very comprehensive and instructive lecture upon the sub-
ject, and a classification of several extensive libraries, viz., that of Harvard University, Philadelphia Library,
and Congress Library, which cannot fail to be interesting and instructive.
NEW YORK SUN, Gould's Universal Inder. Mr. M. T. C. Gould, of stenographic celebrity, has pre-
pared and published a volume under the above title, which commends itself to universal attention. The
object of the work is to instruct scholars in a method for saving time in the acquisition of knowledge, and of
having that knowledge at all times at as ready command as definitions are in a dictionary. The plan by
which this is accomplished is extremely simple-within the comprehension of the youngest students-and at
the same time ingenious and comprehensive : evincing much labor and perseverance on the part of the author.
It is calculated for aniversal use, and will be found as valuable an auxiliary to the studies and researches of
the professional man and the philosopher as to the youngest searchers after knowledge.


LECTURE
Franklin has said that “ Time is money ;" that “ A penny saved
is worth two earned.” One wiser than Franklin has said, “ Take
fast hold of instruction;" “Knowledge is better than fine gold;"'
“ Wisdom is better than rubies ;" “ A wise man will hear, and will
increase learning.”
To save time and increase knowledge, then, appear to be desira.
ble objects. But how shall they be attained ? Upon this subject
I will offer a few hints.
In addition to the numerous lights and aids by which we are sur-
rounded in youth and manhood, we must have more method, more
fixedness of design, as it respects the classification and arrangement
of our knowledge for safe-keeping, future reference and use; and
this work must be commenced in our schools and colleges. I would
recommend the young man who wishes to save time, and treasure
up useful knowledge, to acquire the art of short-hand, as an invalu-
able labor and time saving art; it will be found an intellectual lever
of manifold power. I would advise him, next, to provide a blank
book, and open an account with each and every important subject,
branch, or source of information to which his attention may be from
time to time directed, while at school or college, while studying a
profession, or otherwise preparing himself for usefulness in active
life, whether as a farmer, merchant, manufacturer, or mechanic.
This blank book should be an universal index, to be filled up by
himself, in such manner as to form a sure key to every important
subject, fact, or circumstance to which he may wish to recur during
his future life, and to which his children may refer when he shall
have passed away.
Each young man might open an account with geography, with
astronomy, with logic, with rhetoric, with chemistry, geology, mine-
ralogy, botany, and the animal kingdom; with history, ancient, mo-
dern, civil, profane, or ecclesiastical ; and, if he please, with various
ramifications of miscellaneous history, such as biography, mytho-

logy, memoirs, chronicles, annals, journals, genealogy, romance,
fables, &c.
The merchant, who receives a bill of goods from his correspond-
ent in London or Liverpool, is particular not only to file that bill for
future reference, but to copy it entire into an invoice book, that he
may at pleasure look to the quantity, quality, and price of the several
articles. So, the young man who attends a lecture, or course of
lectures, or reads authors for the information or knowledge which
they may impart, should, at the close of every such lecture or read-
ing, or as soon after as practicable,—at the end of an hour, a day,
or a week, at the close of a chapter or volume, pass to the credit of
the lecturer or author, under appropriate heads, the essential facts
or ideas which may have been derived from that source—not ne-
cessarily, nor even advisedly, in the very language of the lecturer
or author, but in the language of the pupil or learner, who should
always aim to condense language and express ideas with the fewest
words that will answer the purpose. For it is an acknowledged
evil of the age in which we live, that our public men, and among
them some of our great men, think too little, speak too much, and
write too much. They often fill the broadside of a newspaper with
words, though their ideas might find room in a nut-shell. A judi-
cious system like the one which I propose may soon be made familiar
and easy, so that every thing may have a place, and every thing be
in its place.
The habitual mental effort, of endeavoring to grasp the substance
of what we see, hear, and read-of seeking ideas rather than
words—the kernel rather than the shell—the grain rather than the
chaff—the gold rather than the dross; and of classifying, arranging,
and expressing in our own language, and with the fewest and most
appropriate words, cannot fail to strengthen the powers of the mind
and improve the faculty of memory. If, to this, we add the me-
chanical operation of writing down, we secure still greater advan-
tages, and shall know more and remember more, though we never
afterwards look at what we have written. In addition to this, if
we resort to the all-important safeguard of committing our notes, at
once, to the sure keeping of a well-arranged, systematic common-
place book, to every item in which we have an index or key, and
that key be not permitted to rust for want of use, we may be able
at a future time to say, we have thereby increased our knowledge
four-fold, and our command over it ten-fold.


LECTURE.
I commenced by recommending a course for young men ; let me
now add a few hints for those who are neither very young nor very
old—I mean those who are old enough to have felt the want, and
to appreciate the value of such a system as I am about to suggest,
and not too old to profit by it should they think proper to adopt it.
I will confine myself to no particular classes or professions, for I am
aware that many gentlemen of the learned professions have their
vade mecum, their index rerum, &c.; that farmers and mechanics
have their manuals and their companions ; those who navigate rivers
and lakes have their pilot's guide ; those upon the ocean their prac-
tical navigator, their instruments and their charts; but all these are
made by others. I want each individual to prepare something for
himself, though all these are valuable in their respective places and
to particular classes. So, for general use, is the alphabetic arrange-
ment of a dictionary, the directory of a city, the gazetteer of a par-
ticular country or of the world, the index to a leger of accounts,
to almost every book that is published, and to the various articles
in an universal encyclopedia ; but there is something yet wanting
which will come directly home to the case of every individual, and
which may be called by each individual my own book, or a key to
all my own knowledge. As no one can think for us, or answer for
us in the final day of account, so, neither can any one prepare for
us precisely such a book as our circumstances require. Do not in-
fer from this, that I would recommend the discontinuance of any
of the facilities which I have named; they are all necessary and
proper; and still, each individual needs the addition of a single
book, to be prepared by himself, which shall be a key or index to
all others, and, if properly arranged, to all the acquired knowledge
of a long life. This great desideratum, though ardently desired by
many, has been sought for and attained by comparatively few.
Like many important discoveries and inventions, it has remained
for the present and future generations to appreciate its importance,
and profit by its general adoption in academies and colleges. That
this will be the case in a very few years I have no doubt, notwith-
standing the wonderful tenacity of habit, sanctioned by the usage
of ages. To show the blindness and inveteracy of certain literary
habits, I will produce a single example, directly to the point:
About the time that steam began to be employed in the United
States for the propelling of boats, certain gentlemen in New York
and Philadelphia had commenced a republication, or an American


LECTURE.
edition of the Edinburg Encyclopædia ; but, owing to the failure of
the projectors and beginners of that great literary work, it was more
than twenty years in the press. During all that time, the American
public felt a deep and absorbing interest in the subject of steam; and
the learned article which was promised and expected in that work,
was looked for with almost painful anxiety by its patrons and the
public; and though it was actually written for a number of years,
still it was not reached in alphabetic order till the year 1830. Suc-
cessive numbers and volumes of the work continued to appear under
different letters of the alphabet, in order, down to the long looked-for
letter S, without the aid of which, it was shrewdly insisted by the
literati who had the publication in charge, that the word steam
could not be spelled, much less, the subject treated of with philosophic
gravity and a well-grounded hope of success with the American
people. The properties, powers, and capabilities, of this great agent,
steam_which has since revolutionized the commercial and manu-
facturing world, and is now active in every land and upon every
sea over the habitable globe-though then seen, heard, and felt, upon
almost every American river and lake, could not be described, but
the subject was actually postponed for twenty years, to give time
and place to the letters A, B, C, and D; and a description of acorn,
bagpipe, conchology, dentology, and other equally important and
urgent subjects, through all the more favored letters of the alphabet,
till the theory and practice of steam had become comparatively as
familiar as ploughing, hoeing, or mowing.
That very young children should acquire a habit of reading their
alphabet downward, when they cannot read it upward or promiscu-
ously, is not at all surprising; but that grown-up children, men, and
philosophers, should be kept in leading-strings, and thus tied up to
habit, is certainly surprising: but it is no less true with regard to some
of the literary shackles imposed by usage and the popular routine of
schools and colleges, of which I shall have occasion to speak directly.
I have often heard reasons assigned for not commencing in early life
some systematic plan of indexing and common-placing, which to me
appeared equally trivial as that for neglecting the article of steam
on account of the primogeniture of certain letters of the alphabet.
It is sagely asked, who can make an index to a book till it is
written or printed? Who can make a directory to a city till he
has learned who lives in it, and where they live? And how can a


LECTURE.
young man make an index to the contents of his own brain till there
is something in it-to various knowledge which he has not yet ac-
quired, or to the reading of his life till the close of it? If there be
any sense in these inquiries, as well might early lexicographers
have said, hundreds of years ago, when they found the many thou-
sand words of a language in utter chaos, we cannot make a dic-
tionary of a language till the words are all made. But such folly
was not insisted on; the work of analysis and classification was
commenced. All words beginning with the letter A were put
together in one class; all beginning with B were put in another, and
so on through the alphabet, till all were arranged in classes, answer-
ing to the several letters of the alphabet. This was the first step
towards that beautiful system of alphabetic arrangement which we
now find in such general use, in the various ways which I have
enumerated-of course I do not include the abuses of the plan illus-
trated in the case of steam. But as words continued to multiply
with the increase of arts, sciences, and knowledge in general, each
of these great divisions became too extensive for ready reference,
and necessity soon led to another valuable discovery. It was this:
that all words beginning with the letter B might, for more ready
reference, be appropriately placed in subdivisions, according to the
particular vowel which followed after the first letter of each word,
viz: ba, be, bi, bo, bu, by ; and so of each letter in its turn, through
the entire alphabet. This plan, taking our English alphabet of
twenty-six letters, and six of them vowels, would require one hun-
dred and fifty-six subdivisions, but for the fact that q is always
followed by u, which reduces the subdivisions to one hundred and
fifty-one. And this second step was in fact the ne plus ultra ; for
the same arrangement has continued to the present time, without
material change. I found this plan in use when I came upon the
stage some 30 or 40 years ago, and was told by Barclay, Sheridan,
Entick, and other dictionary-makers, that the English language then
consisted of about 30,000 words: and the same plan is made to
answer now, even by Noah Webster himself, who professes to
know more than all who have gone before him. He has been able
to gather up, spell, accent, define, and arrange under the same 151
heads, chapters, and subdivisions, no less than 80,000 words. All
these words, like so many letters, papers, or documents, filed and
deposited in a well-regulated series of pigeon-holes in a post-office

LECTURE.
or prothonotary's office, can be readily referred to by any school-
boy in the land who has a copy of that invaluable work, Webster's
Dictionary—and by the by, none should be without it.
I now propose that every man, both young and old, who has
any regard to system, order, or arrangement, as it respects the
multifarious matters of interest which have been already brought
within his observation, or which may hereafter be deemed worthy
of preservation, shall be enabled, by the aid of a common-place
book, or general index, filled up by himself, to turn to any part or
portion 20 or 40 years hence, as readily as he would turn to a word
in Webster's Dictionary, a residence in the city of New York—or,
as readily as our United States librarian puts his hand upon any
volume in the great national library of Congress, at the Capitol in
Washington. And who, that has witnessed the readiness with
which any volume is produced from that immense collection, does
not admire the system by which the keeper is led to his object with
such unerring certainty, and with so little pains ;—and is this the
result of haphazard guess work-is it a miracle of memory to which
he is indebted ? No, it is neither; it is the result of order and
method—the same kind of systematic arrangement which I propose
to teach, and to have taught, in the schools and colleges of the
United States, by means of my lectures, printed instructions, index,
and common-place books; for which design I asked and obtained a
copyright 10 years ago, and which I have lately renewed, with
improvements.
I would ask, to whom are we indebted for the philosophic classi-
fication of the many thousand volumes in our national library?
We are indebted to the immortal Jefferson, who, following the ex-
ample of the French philosophers, had thus classified and arranged
his own princely library, and whose system has been adhered to in
arranging the library of the nation, of which his now constitutes so
large a portion. Following up the hints of Bacon, of Locke, and
of Jefferson, a synopsis of two pages (in this work one page) is
made a key to a printed catalogue of 700 octavo pages; and this
catalogue, divided into 44 chapters, is a key to as many thousand
volumes, the location of each being pointed out like the number and
street of a resident in the city of Philadelphia, New York, or Bos-
ton, by means of a directory.
You have seen with what readiness the merchant or bank clerk
refers to the minute items of a long account through the alphabetic


LECTURE.
arrangement of his index, and the paging of day-book, journal, and
leger.
The great characteristic difference between his system and the
one which I propose is, that his is confined to pounds, shillings,
pence, or dollars and cents, and mine has to do with men and things
—with authors, books, sciences, arts, times, places, distances, dates,
amounts, facts, and circumstances—that is, with useful knowledge
rather than dollars and cents; with knowledge of every possible
variety, no matter how varied, for every thing has a name, and
must be sper'ed with letters belonging to our common alphabet, of
which there are but 26, and hence my classification for future re-
ference is into 26 chapters, A, B, C, D, &c.; and each of these
chapters into six sections, a, e, i, o, u, y.
If facts were dollars, and ideas dimes or cents, they would not
be intrusted to memory alone ; there would be some attempt at
book-keeping in our schools and colleges, and this plan is offered as
a system of such book-keeping. A blank book is provided, and by
previous arithmetical calculation, the several pages are allotted to
specific objects, as are the several compartments in a printer's
case; and subjects, however diversified, are put in their respective
places as a printer distributes his types, and they are sought for
with the same certainty of success.
When we reflect upon the scrupulous exactness with which the
account books of a prudent merchant, farmer, or mechanic, are
made to show the place, circumstance, or disposition of every item
of his money or property; when we see a man, comparatively uneda
ucated, turning at pleasure to all the trifling items of a long and
complicated account of perhaps many years standing, is it not a
matter for astonishment, that ninety-nine in the hundred of our well-
educated men are unable, when called on, to refer with any degree
of facility or certainty to a twentieth part of the valuable informa-
tion which, in times past, they may have called their own, but of
which they have now only a vague and indistinct recollection?
They are as much at a loss as the printer, when by accident his
types are thrown into pi.
· Days, weeks, and months, are wasted in tiresome and often fruit-
less search for that which has been seen, heard, or read, and to
which recurrence is desirable, but, for want of some rational and
fixed design, it is perhaps lost for ever.
• Why is this? Is it that the items which make up our fund of


LECTURE.
useful knowledge are so much less valuable than the items which
compose our perishable earthly riches ? Certainly not. It is that,
with the exception of Bacon, Locke, Franklin, Jefferson, and a few
others, (and among our cotemporaries I would name John Quincy
Adams,) the literary world has been divided into two great classes,
viz: writers and readers. The first have been satisfied with wri-
ting for others to read; the second, with reading what the first have
written—to do which, in this book-making age of the world, is, too
often, grasping images and shadows rather than objects and reali-
ties. By undertaking too much, they endanger all. It is like at-
tempting to cull flowers and fruit from the gardens and fields which
we pass on a railroad excursion. Those who have read a hun-
dred or a thousand books, are often less learned than some of a
former age who read but ten books. But our fathers have done
without system, our cotemporaries are now generally without
method; and from our primary schools to our colleges and univer-
sities, the learner is permitted to revel amid rich profusions of use-
ful learning, comparatively without mental effort, and without
method or design as to future reference or future want. He is per-
mitted to lavish for the present, and depend on memory for the fu-
ture. The mental labor being performed by authors and teachers,
the pupil not unfrequently finds himself in after life like the profligate
heir, but little better for his inheritance. To see the absurdity of
this prodigal course, we have only to refer to any of the ordinary
interests and pursuits of human life, except that of acquiring and
retaining useful knowledge.
Locke's plan, variously modified, has been adopted by a very
few professional men; but, so far as I am informed, no one, except
myself, has undertaken to prepare and bring into general use,
through academies and colleges, a system of book-keeping, the ob-
jects of which are co-extensive with the vast circle of human know-
ledge, and still so simplified as to be adapted to the capacity of
youth, and so cheap as to find its way into common schools.
The accomplished lawyer, who has an important suit to manage,
and especially if well feed for it, after learning all that he can of
the merits and demerits, from his client, examines various authori-
ties, calls into requisition all his own fund of acquired knowledge
and experience, and, from all these, with all the testimony in the
case, he prepares a brief for argument. This brief, in his own
words, would be fit matter for his own common-place book, and

should at once find its place there, for it may be useful some other
day; it would occupy but little space, though embodying the result
of extensive and laborious research, and could be turned to by an
index at any time through life. Suppose that, from some cause,
the suit in question should be postponed for a number of years, and
the brief, instead of being thus recorded in its appropriate place,
should be left upon a loose scrap of paper in the ordinary way,
and the paper lost-would not the lawyer have cause to regret that
he had neglected the three or five minutes to his place-book, which
would save him, now, the labor of, perhaps, as many hours, days,
or weeks?
I have given this single example, of a single individual, upon a
single subject, in making a single entry in his own place-book, or
general index; and I desire to see each and every individual treating
each and every important subject in the same systematic and tho-
rough way through life, so far as his situation, calling, and ability
may enable him. With this resolution, this system, and laudable
industry, I should have no fear but that he would become a wiser
man, than if he left every thing to chance, as is now the practice.
But there must be a beginning; and I am asked, how shall I be-
gin? I will endeavor to tell you.
The merchant can open a set of books and commence keeping
accounts with a single individual upon a single page of his leger,
and as his business increases, he can open a page for each additional
customer, without creating any confusion. And so it is with this
plan-It can be commenced by littles, not necessarily by lawyers
and other learned or professional men, but by boys at school, from
whose ranks all professions, trades, and occupations, are, and must
continue to be replenished. But, as this has not been the case in
schools heretofore, we must take things as we find them-not as
we wish them.
We will then suppose that the farmer, the merchant, or the me-
chanic, already entered upon the active duties of life to the neglect
of all system and memoranda, should now determine to open a
general index, according to my advice, and in imitation of the ex-
ample which I have given. Suppose he should apply his best men-
tal faculties to a few subjects, which he may think most deserving
of his consideration, and record the result in the fewest words which
may answer the end. Suppose that he should, at the same time,
commence filing, numbering, and indexing all important state pa-


14
LECTURE.
pers and other documents which fall in his way, rather than throw-
ing them under foot-do you not think it would richly compensate
him, or his children, for the time and trouble bestowed ? I think it
would.
For his amusement, then, if not for his edification, let me suggest
the contents of a few pages in his book—without particular regard
to order, as it respects the importance of subjects, or fitness, as to
precedence among the subjects.
Suppose he devotes one page to agricultural interests, one to
mechanic arts, one to trade and commerce, one to natural sciences,
one to literature, one to politics, one to religion, one to law, one to
medicine, one to proceedings in congress, one to proceedings in the
legislature of his own state, one to canals and railroads-one to abo-
lition if he think proper—but if so, one to colonization, one to
anti-masonry and masonry, one to whiggery, one to anti-whiggery,
&c.—though, in my opinion, he might better substitute for the last
six, the following three, viz: one to minding his own business, one
to letting the business of others alone; and thirdly, one to faith, hope,
and charity.
I am aware that this is rather a formidable series for a beginner,
and still I have named but twenty subjects, of which, I should pre-
fer to drop six, leaving but fourteen.
Now who could not, if he would, keep an account even with
twenty of his neighbors, upon twenty separate pages of his leger,
with an alphabetical index referring to the page of each man's ac-
count? And where a man has any considerable business or inter-
course with twenty of his neighbors, would it not be better for him
to keep some kind of accounts, than to trust all to memory and keep
none at all ?
I have no desire to dictate the topics, or the number of them-let
every one select for himself. The subjects may be varied, and in-
creased, at pleasure, from the twenty which I have named, to forty-
four, which are found sufficient on Jefferson's plan for thirty or forty
thousand volumes of a library; to one hundred, which is the greatest
number required by Locke with all his learning; or to one hundred
and fifty-one, the number required by Noah Webster, for classifying
all the words of the English language, of which he has exhibited
eighty thousand.
When an appropriate book and index are provided, and a few
accounts opened, the main difficulty is surmounted--all after is


LECTURE.
15
pleasant and profitable. As often as any thing is seen, heard, or
read, deserving of preservation or future reference, let it be posted
to its proper account, like an item of dollars and cents in a leger.
When a new subject occurs, open a new account, and if one page
is filled, pass to the next,--without even the usual precaution, ne-
cessary in a common leger, of placing at the foot of the full page,
the number of the new page to which you have removed, and at
the head of the new page, the number of that from which you last
came, adding in every instance, the new number to the index; for
the index which I furnish is already complete. To men of business,
there is of course nothing new in this to require further explanation,
but I speak for youth, as well as for men of business.
The entries in a common-place book should stand like names, births,
ages, marriages, and deaths, in a family Bible. What is thus once
well done, is done for ever—it need not be done again. And in
order that such a book may last through a man's life, the entries
should be brief, as they are in a leger of accounts, and in short-
hand if practicable—that is, by all those who have learned, or can
learn conveniently, that labor-saving art. Each entry should be a
mere syllabus or brief of the subject to which reference is to be
made. The book being a general repository, or warehouse for in-
tellectual goods, wares, and merchandise, the entries should be
heads and skeletons of important subjects; many of which, without
this artificial aid, could never be recalled by memory, for any valu-
able purpose ; but, with it, may be brought up at any future time,
with all the freshness of original conception
While the foregoing object is satisfactorily accomplished by the
short entries recommended—the general index is at the same time
employed as a key to various other books, and to numerous subjects
not found in this book, except by name, and to be turned to, or
sought for, according to the directions given at the time the entries
are made, and in pursuance of the plan which I shall now explain.
This, doubtless, will be the most important use to which the book
will be applied, by a majority of those who adopt the plan; as it
avoids, in a good degree, the unwelcome toil imposed by common-
placing in the usual way.
The man who thinks a great deal, reads a great deal, and writes
a great deal; or, in other words, the man who knows a great deal,
and would know still more, and have it at command, should, in
addition to the book which I have recommended, be provided with


16
LECTURE.
a blank book for a diary or journal*,—with a letter book, scrap
book, and portfolio, lettered and numbered ; and also with a series
of boxes or pigeon-holes, for the safe-keeping of papers, pamphlets,
&c. These pigeon-holes should be lettered alphabetically, or num-
bered, as we see them in post-offices and other well-regulated offices,
public and private.
Every pamphlet, and every paper, not belonging to the fiscal or
business department of a man s affairs (which we presume to be al-
ready well cared for,) should be numbered, either under some ap-
propriate head or class, such as I have heretofore intimated, or as
a prothonotary numbers his writs, his suits, his judgments, his ex-
ecutions, &c.; or, if no appropriate account has yet been opened in
the place-book, then under the head miscellaneous, till at some future
time, the miscellaneous items thus accumulated are posted to their
appropriate accounts.
All presidential and gubernatorial messages or addresses, and the
reports from the principal departments of our national and state
governments, should be regularly numbered and placed in their
appropriate boxes—or for want of such repository, in packages,
bundles, or files, with the numbers entered in the universal index
so that by the key and the name of the author or subject they can
be turned to at pleasure ten or twenty years hence.
The newspapers, containing speeches upon important subjects, by
John Q. Adams, Clay, Webster, Buchanan, Benton, Calhoun, &c.,
might also be thus numbered and preserved, where full files of the
papers are not kept ; for the history of our day would be very im-
perfect without the aid of these speeches—to say nothing of the
aroma and spice which they yield to political life, or the present
light which they shed upon the leading topics of the age in which
we live.
The present seeker of political fame, in the counsels of state or
nation, should not fail to open an account with, or assign a pigeon-
hole in his cabinet to each of these individuals, and from time to
time, to such others as may become alike distinguished, and be
thought deserving of such a provision.
By turning to the account of Andrew Jackson, had such an ar-

rangement been entered into and pursued, from the battle of New
Orleans till the close of his administration, entries like the following
might probably be found : battle at New Orleans, January 8, 1815,
see National Intelligencer, or other document, No. —, pigeon-hole
No. 7; that is, supposing that each of the former presidents of the
United States, had a separate box assigned him. Again, presiden-
tial election 1825, result of, by the House of Representatives-see
paper No. - Election 1829, result of, Intelligencer, New York
Spectator, Richmond Enquirer, &c., No. Inauguration, inaugu-
ral address, &c., No. - First message to congress, No. — Re-
moving deposits, Veto of United States Bank, Specie Circular, &c.
&c., all numbered and arranged in the same order, and in the same
pigeon-hole or file.
Under the head, H. Clay or J. C. Calhoun, might be found the
following entries: Speech of, on chartering U. S. Bank, 1816, paper
No.-, renewing charter U. S. B. Compromise tariff, distribution
surplus revenue, proceeds of public lands, northeastern boundary,
steamboat Caroline, Alexander McLeod, the Florida war, including
“ the blood-hounds,” the bankrupt law without the hounds, &c., &c.,
all in similar order, with the number of each document entered in
the proper account.
Upon another page, but under the appropriate heads, would be
found entries like these: See Niles' Register, vol. 17, page - En-
cyclopedia Americana, vol. 10, page , Marshall's Washington, re-
vised edition, octavo, Phila., vol. 1, page , &c., &c. This plan
would take but little writing, and occupy but little space, so that a
general index, the size of a new testament for schools, would be suf-
ficient, as an index, for John Quincy Adams, with 70 or 80 volumes
of his own manuscript. In most cases, however, the entries may
be made so full, especially when short-hand is used, as to supersede
the necessity of future reference to other sources; and when it is
apprehended that such sources may not be accessible, the entries
should not fail to be so full as to give all that is essential upon the
subject; and with a view to this the blank books are made suffi-
ciently large for common-place entries, and pretty extensive memo-
randa. The shorter plan of mere index entries, is resorted to as a
saving of time, labor, and space, and when there is little doubt that
the books, papers, and other sources where the subjects may be
found, will be accessible in future. After the various provisions which
have been suggested, for saving common-place labor, by the syste-

matic arrangement and indexing of papers, pamphlets, &c., if wri.
ting must be actually done, and if a subject be deserving of a longer
written extract or memorandum than would be appropriate for the
place-book or general index, let it be written upon a separate sheet
of paper, numbered, and placed in its appropriate pigeon-hole, as if
it were a pamphlet or newspaper, containing some important state
paper-not neglecting to make, at the same time, a corresponding
entry in the general index as a key to future reference.
Every professional gentleman should have, in addition to what I
have named, a separate blank book for all that appertains to his own
particular profession or business; just as much as he should have a
day-book and leger for dollars and cents.
For the sake of a more familiar illustration of the nature and uses
of this system, permit me to speak of myself, and some of my former
labors in this line. At the age of twenty, while reading Locke on
the Human Understanding, my attention was drawn to his plan of a
common-place book, usually published at the close of that work.
Although the plan had been devised by him more than one hun-
dred and fifty years ago, and was evidently imperfect in some re-
spects, it was the first, and only thing of the kind that I had seen.
Its importance struck me most forcibly, and with some trifling modi-
fications I adopted it as my own. I prepared a blank book and
commenced taking short-hand notes, and making briefs not only
from Locke, but from various other works, and in the following or-
der, viz: from Paley's Moral Philosophy, Sheridan's Elocution, Dun-
can’s Logic, Blair's Rhetoric, Enfield's Natural Philosophy, Fergu-
son's Astronomy, Stuart's Metaphysics, Vattel's Law of Nations,
Montesquieu's Spirit of Laws, &c. The original stenographic notes
thus taken, are still in my possession, and I often refer to them with
pleasure and profit—though they are less perfect than I could de.
sire. I have scarcely found time to read a page in either of those
authors, for the last twenty-seven years ; and yet I could in a few
hours prepare myself for a critical examination on any one of them
by the simple aid of the short-hand skeletons which I then pre
pared—in the way which I now recommend to others.
I was delighted with the plan, and astonished at the result; for ]
soon became convinced, that hours were worth more to me with
this plan, than days had been without it. During the next few
years, I used short-hand chiefly for business memoranda, for cor.
respondence with a few select friends, for my own compositions,

the recording of letters, and occasionally the substance of a sermon,
for my own edification, or the gratification of my friends.
My own life has been devoted to various branches of business, in
all of which, I have found short-hand and common-placing of infinite
value to me—whether as a merchant in the country-author, pub-
lisher, or bookseller in the cities-lecturer and teacher in schools
and colleges-reporter in Congress, State Legislatures, conventions
and courts—or as western land-agent.
During all these vicissitudes I have necessarily had a very exten-
sive acquaintance and intercourse with men of almost every class
and profession ; and have seen, in nearly all of them, a great defi-
ciency as to method. I have heard it almost universally regretted
among learned men, that they had not in early life acquired
the art of short-writing,* and been put in possession of some ra-
tional plan for referring to their various knowledge through life.
These regrets, from high authorities, have more and more confirm-
ed the opinions which I formed at an early day, as to the importance
of short-writing and common-placing, and the great advantages
which would result from the teaching of these branches in our
schools and colleges for both may be acquired in a week, so as to
answer the purpose proposed, and by a little practice they would
goon be as familiar as the principles of arithmetic and grammar.
I now repeat what I have often asserted, which has been seldom
contradicted, and which cannot be refuted, viz: By the aid of these
two facilities, familiarized in youth, more than half the labor of ac-
quiring useful knowledge and making it available through life, may
be saved to the learner. Or in other words, a person may acquire
with these facilities, in a given time, quadruple the amount of use-
ful knowledge which it would be possible for him to acquire without
these aids. Not that I have myself improved in that proportion ;
but what I have acquired, has been with trifling time and labor, in
comparison to the amount usually bestowed by others upon the
same subjects ; and what I have once acquired, I shall have at com-
mand through life.
It is objected by some, that this course is too mechanical; that it
will take too much labor; that the memory will be injured by it
* As a proof of its labor, space, and time saving powers, let it be understood, that this
ontire lecture, of 17 large printed pages, prepared to be read in public, was originally
written in my usual running short-hand, upon a single sheet of letter paper-though in
ordinary common-hand it would have required from five to eight sheets.

rather than improved. To these, let me say—he who learns to
write five or six times as fast as he was wont, or as others usu-
ally write, and by judicious system and early habit is enabled to
grasp the substance of a volume-to analyze, condense, arrange in
his mind, and present upon a page of his index a synopsis of the
whole, while another would barely read it-does not, by this exercise,
injure the memory, but invigorates the mind and improves the me-
mory; and this is the exercise, which it is the object of the present
lecture to recommend and introduce. The mind, being released
from the incumbrance of unnecessary words and space, finds more
time to grow and expand by reflecting upon and comparing the
ideas which words may have infused. The learner looks upon his
synopsis of a single page, as he looks upon the map of a country,
and, at a glance, the substance of a volume is brought in view. It
is true, the memory should be the repository of ideas rather than
of words, which are, at best, but the mere vehicles of thought, and
always at hand where thought is; and having performed their
office of communicating ideas, they are as useless as the spelling-
books, grammars, and geographies of our childhood. Having
learned the ideas, we care not for the words in which they were
clothed—any more than the farmer, for the chaff which he commits
to the winds and the beasts of the field, having first secured the
grain ; but let us not give a certainty for an uncertainty.
The memory, while it should not be overburdened with unneces-
sary verbiage, should never be released from that habitual exertion
on which its own health and preservation depend; for the great
secret of preserving and improving the memory, consists in giving
it a sufficient quantity of the right kind of aliment, affording due
time for its digestion, and no more relaxation than is absolutely ne-
cessary for the restoration of its healthy functions.
The person, therefore, who adopts the facilities which I have been
recommending, does not substitute them for memory, but employs
them as its assistants—as its knowledge-bearers, to gather up, pre-
serve, and hold in readiness for future use, that which memory need
not be continually cumbered with, and to which it cannot resort at
pleasure or with certainty without some such artificial aid.
The anticipated improvement and benefits are to flow from the
mutual and reciprocal co-operation of short-writing, common-placing,
or indexing, and memory, as auxiliaries each to the other.
Suppose it were desirable, for a particular object, to refer to the

written account of some distinguished individual who stands conspi-
cuous upon the page of history, ancient or modern: the orators, De-
mosthenes or Cicero ; the poets, Homer or Virgil; the philosophers,
lawgivers, wise men, historians, or celebrated writers, of antiquity,
Socrates, Plato, Diogenes, Epicurus, Solon, Seneca, Josephus, Pliny;
or to the emperors, kings, conquerors, presidents, and generals of
the world at large, Alexander the Great, Julius Cæsar, Hannibal,
Cincinnatus, Scipio, Washington, Bonaparte, Bolivar; or to the
Henrys, the Edwards, the Richards, the Georges, the Williams, or
the Queens of England : without some kind of system or method,
more than is usually adopted at schools and colleges, or practised
by those who read professedly for the purpose of future benefit,
there might be very great inconvenience in turning, at once, to the
subject proposed, because you must look to the history of Greece, of
Rome, England, France, North America, South America ; you must
resort to various volumes, and probably beyond your own library-
and thousands there are who have no library. But, upon my plan.
every young man should have all such subjects arranged in his place.
book, or general index, while at school, so that, in all after life, he could
turn to them as he would turn to a word in a dictionary.
A word further: Suppose you would know the latitude, longitude,
boundaries, extent of territory, population, form of government,
amount of revenue, of national debt, number of the army or navy of
any country in Europe, or the population of any European city;
the time of any great naval battle among the European powers; or
if you would refer to some feature in the Constitution of the United
States, or of any individual State ; to the organization and general
business arrangements of any of the various departments of our
national government, from the executive downward; or if even you
would look to the components of the British parliament—the
Peers—of blood-royal, the archbishops, dukes, marquises, earls, vis-
counts, bishops, barons—or the Commons, and the relative number
representing England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales; however mis.
cellaneous and dissimilar, in all respects, these several subjects may
appear, they are all alike simple in an index.
As a proof of the simplicity and efficiency of this system, so far
as my own reading and knowledge are concerned, it affords me
pleasure to answer any interrogatories which may be put upon any
of the subjects named, or other topics upon which I have ever read,
deeming the subject-matter worthy of preservation.

DIFFERENT SYSTEMS AND MODES OF CLASSIFICATION.
I now close my instructions and hints to young men by referring to several modes of
classitication, and to Chancellor Kent's course of reading.
SYSTEM OF DR. LOCKE.
As to Locke's system of common-placing, to which I have alluded, I must be permit.
tcd to say-however clear the ideas of that author were upon other subjects, he was not
fortunate in the description of his own method of common-placing; for not one in twenty
has been able to understand and practise it, without perplexity and blunders. It was
only adapted to his own use, and the use of those, like himself, who read, think, and
write continually. Various modifications and imitations have been recommended and
adopted, without inaterial improvement,
CLASSIFICATION OF PHILADELPHIA LIBRARY, FOUNDED 1731.

By a synopsis of three pages, we are shown the particular page of the general cata.
logue upon which each subdivision commences; and from that commencement, all the
particular works belonging to that subdivision are ranged in alphabetic order; and in that
arrangement is shown the number of the volume in the entire library, instead of the num.
ber in a particular subdivision ; but still, the alphabetic series is resorted to no less than
181 times-and once for the names of authors, making 182.
JEFFERSON'S SYNOPSIS, AND THE CLASSIFICATION OF BOOKS IN
CONGRESS LIBRARY, WASHINGTON CITY.
(SLE NEXT PAGE.)
Having alluded to the philosophic synopsis or cluesification of Mr. Jefferson, I have
thought best to exhibit it entire, being unwilling to keep back any thing which may be
useful, and believing as I do, that it may lead to reflection, examination, and improvement.
It will be seen that this classification has furnished maiter for forty-four distinct chap.
ters, and the present library of congress is thus divided.
The various works in this immense library are not numbered in a continuous series,
as is the case in some libraries; but the distinct subjects or works belonging to each
chapter, are numbered in a separate series; and are turned to in the catalogue, by the
alphabetic arrangement of that particular chapter. To do this, the alphabetic series is
resorted to no less than forty-four times; besides being once employed upon the names
of authors alone. Having the name of an author, his work is turned to in the ordinary al
phabetic way; and if he has written upon subjects belonging to several chapters, those chap.
ters are here pointed out, as also the pages of the general catalogue, where the particular
works are specified by title, and their number in the chapter given-hy this last number,
the book is selected from the shelves,

merated by title, requiring two volumes octavo, of 949 pages. A third volume, of 223
pages, gives a synopsis of the whole library divided into six CLASSES, which classes are
subdivided into fifty sections, and the place of each volume, in any one of these sections,
is pointed out through the number of the page upon which the title of the volume is
found, in the principal catalogue of 949 pages; and this catalogue gives the number
of the volume in its particular section, and as it stands upon the shelves of the library in
that section. Here, again, the alphabetic series is resorted to no less than fifty times.
