near the Office, E. Steiger, Publisher, Importer, and Bookseller, has removed to 25 Park Place, P, NEW YORK. In consequence of his removal to the spacious and advantageously located building 25 Park Place, Mr. STEIGER is, at last, in a position to make a proper display of his attractive and carefully-selected Stock the largest in its special lines of German Publications, Globes, Kindergarten Literature, Material and Occupations, etc. He is also enabled to make additions to the various Departments of his Business and would call especial attention to the fact that, in connection with the Office of the Cyclopædia of Education and the Year-Book of Education, and of STEIGER'S Educational Directory, he has established a Free Educational Bureau, through the medium of which Teachers and Kindergartners desiring positions, Institutions needing Teachers, and Parents or Guardians seeking information respecting Educational Institutions or Private Teachers, may all be accommodated without being charged the customary fee. These, together with the additional advantages which will hereafter be offered by Mr. STEIGER'S Establishment, are intended and cannot fail to render it a desirable, convenient, and widely patronized Headquarters for Educators. With constantly increasing facilities and connections Mr. STEIGER is, therefore, enabled to represent satisfactorily and profitably, in the New York market as well as throughout the United States and Canada, and also in Europe, the interests of Publishers of Educational Books, Manufacturers of School Supplies and School Specialties of particular merit. Acceptable Proposals in this direction will be duly considered, and, if made without delay, can be included in the extensive arrangements already in preparation for the coming season. Now in press and shortly to be issued, as the first of a series of annual volumes : Edited by HENRY KIDDLE and ALEXANDER J. SCHEM. This important work is a continuation of, and similar in style to, the Cyclopædia of Education, which has been already widely adopted as a standard educational authority, both in America and in Europe. No work of so comprehensive a character as the Year-Book has as yet been published in the English language. Its contents embrace the following: I. Original Articles on the progress of Education in the United States and in Foreign Countries up to the close of the year 1877. II. Statistical Tables (chiefly compiled from information recently received). III. Reviews and Notices of recent Educational Publications. IV. A List of Collegiate, Denominational, Special, and Private Educational Institutions (compiled from the latest catalogues and from special information received within the last few weeks).-V. A classified Descriptive Catalogue of American, British, German, French, and other Foreign Publications on Education and General Philology, together with Works of Reference, Teachers' Hand-Books, etc.- exclusive of Text-Books. (This large and comprehensive list will prove of great value both to Educators and to Booksellers.) VI. Select Lists of Educational Publications, etc. arranged by the Publishers themselves (together with a complete alphabetical SubjectIndex of all the Books and other articles enumerated therein). Issued in one volume; of about 440 pages, 8vo. printed on superfine paper. Price, in stiff paper cover, $1.25, in cloth, $2.00. These very low prices are subject to the liberal Trade Discount allowed on all of Mr. STEIGER'S Educational Publications. It is confidently expected that the Year-Book of Education for 1878, giving as it does later, more comprehensive, condensed and, withal, more valuable and reliable information on educational matters than can be found elsewhere, will be in great demand.
