The method adopted is the TONIC SOLEA, which is now .-very extensively used in England. I:s efficiency as an instrument of popular iusi ruction is shown by the fact that almost every modern compilation of hymn tunes, of all religious denominations, has an edition in the Solfa Notation, for although persons taught by this method cm readily use an/ mu-L-al notation in pinging, the Solfa being cheaper, easier, iinl more true is the more popular. As Mr Crump's main otyect is to create the power to join freely \\\ the praise of ihe Sanctuary, the expense for the Quarter will be only 3d., including Instruction books and Modulator. Information a?id a-sistan.ee wiil be readily afforded, by p>>st or otherwise, to any Church in town or country, desiring to secure good Congregational Psalmody, or to persons wishing to adopt the method in classes for gunerai instrue- , ti'.in. ' Tune» fh w and Old,' used in the .Wesleyan Church, and the • Rev W. Mercer's Psalter and Hymn Book,' used in the Episcopal Church, Nelson, are both published in the Solfa Notation. 572 St. MARY'S GIRLS' SCHOOL. THE Uev.
