=Grover ClevelANd.= } Con.
=BenjAMin Harrison.= }

There is a fair In. by sound between "an" and "am;" but as they are
alphabetically reversed, it makes a case of Con. reversed.

=BenjAMin Harrison.= } In. &
=Grover ClevelANd.= } Ex.

Here "am" and "an" occur in alphabetical order, and is a case of In.,
and "jam," meaning pressing together, and "cle(a)ve" meaning to
separate, are opposites, hence it is also an example of Exclusion.

Let the student, as in the case of the other groups, recall this list
several times, and each time revive the relation by which each pair of
names was cemented together, and after this let him recall this list
several times both ways without reviving the cementing relations, and
finally let him recall several times, both ways, the entire series of
Presidents from Washington to Cleveland, and from Cleveland to
Washington.

REMARKS.

1. This group furnishes the notable fact that two Presidents (Lincoln
and Garfield) were assassinated while in office.

2. Another peculiarity of this group is that, for the first time since
the days of Washington, there was a widespread discussion and effort
made to push the claims of a President (Grant) for a third term.

3. This group contains the name of the grandson (Benjamin Harrison) of
William Henry Harrison, of the second group. The only other instance of
relationship between the Presidents was in the case of John Adams and
his son, John Quincy Adams of the first group.

4. This group contains the name of the only President (Andrew Johnson)
who was ever sought to be impeached. The prosecution failed to convict,
having lacked one vote of the number necessary for a conviction.

5. Grover Cleveland affords the first instance where the two terms of a
President are separated by the full term of another President (Benjamin
Harrison).

ENGLISH SOVEREIGNS.

A UNIQUE EXERCISE.

The method here used of memorising the order of the English sovereigns
from William I., the Conqueror, to Victoria possesses the following
novelties:--

(1) We learn the order of the entire series of thirty-seven sovereigns
by means of the relations, direct and indirect, which we establish with
the reigning sovereign, Victoria.

(2) The precise credit is claimed for this method which it is entitled
to receive. In a list of proper names we sometimes have several surnames
alike, with usually a difference of Christian names, as in the
