u. those gentlemen a ho so liberally sacrifice then

that a lull attendance ef holies and gentlemen tkii:
season a ill renay the committee for their liberality
an the engagements they have male. Attached
to this institution are a museum, a library,
a reading-room, and clam-r. onis; in the latter
Frviieli and German cheers, muter the able
tuition of Mr. Garston, are still in progrels.
We may be allowed to give a few iiiiitanees ef what
a bey may do by perseverance. Mr. Parkes left
lire children, one of them, Harry, the present
Consul in China, who has lately undergore a painful
imprisonment in that country, was sent to Binning.
IMUI Illuecoat &limit for two years. Mr. Harry
Parkes was subsequently sent out to India throu6.L
the kindness at the late Captain Eaton. Ile
remained in India many years, and afterwards wen;
to China, where, having evinced an aptness in
acquiring a knowledge of the Chinese language.
lie was appeintc.l interpreter awl -subse-
quently Consul. The career of Mr. Parkes
&fonts another .striking instance of a hat may IN.
achieved by ind table perseeerroure and influ+lry.
Mr. Parkes is now the best t'llinese intrepreter of
the day. A late pupil at Mr. Last's, of Doicheeter,
nspiiring a situation the other .lay, having obtained
several certificates and the tirst French prize at the
Associated Institutes of Somerset and Dorset, Ire-
Dented them, and was i tttt ne.liately accepted. Ile
reueinuil on entering a Salary, and remark •
able to say, his cousin in the mine busineas
and the same age was obliged to pay a Premium, as
he could wit produce such honeuralile certificates.
We cannot forget another lad, Charles Grey, a pupil
of Mr. Fudge. who passed so exceedingly well at
the age of 13. the Darin' Middle CINIS ElniOninat inn.
that lie has now an excellent aituatiill with a salary.
These are two anion.; the numermia pupils who have
passe.l au auccessfully under the tuition of M.
(larston. We can find no cecina. for any who will
not eraleavour to study tinder such a teacher- -
what one has done another can do. W. lined say
that great praise is due to so indefatigahle a
teacher for the energy and zeal smith which he ha.
conducted his clames. In adult education all we
cam do is to offer assistance to those who are desirous
of educating themselves. We must attend to the
li departinent and endeavour to make them
atttemry iveattractive. Once give
y..ting perwins a taste for
reading. and they will continue.. Wu need not Ike
afraid of having too many who will pay attention to
the Sciences. What may be overcome by study,
among many others we need mil% allude to Stephen-
