and steps, but very differently numbered from those which have been seen before. The square in longitude 29°, and latitude 55°, if brought together will make 2955; the tens must be rejected, and the units only left. We know that the squares in longitude, from 20 to 30, are on the third ladder, and from 30 to 40 on the fourth; and that the latitude begins on the sixth ladder step. To remember this, some word must be formed from the two figures. Having cut off the tens, we find 2955 becomes 9 longitude, and 5 latitude. The minutes are next to be determined. The distance from line to line is 60 minutes, one half will of course be 30 minutes; ¼—15; ¾—45; ⅕—12; —5. When the geography of England is to be learned, we should commence from the bottom or South of the map, as England is above the equator: when any country is beneath the equator, we must of course count downwards. Although the floor is not used in geography, it will be convenient to suppose this chart of England placed upon the floor, that the different counties may be arranged in order; or it may be supposed to be on a table, &c. or on any other object.
England is generally divided into Circuits, each of which contains a certain number of counties.
