Extract

Having had my attention drawn by special circumstances to the Swedish gymnastics in England, I was induced to seek admittance to the Royal Central Institute at Stockholm in order to become thoroughly acquainted with the system, and as this system is beginning to attract much attention now in England, it may be of interest to have a short account of the Institution and of the course of instruction pursued in it.
