The Bridport School of Art has now been so long a
credit to this languid t .wn, that it would bee. much a
matter of surprise as one of regret, to find that it was
languishing fee want of support. I believe this was
the first School of Art °probed in the county, and
although other tow's' within it have wisely imitated
the 'sample of the reflood and artistic tests which
Prompted its a g hisation, Ills queetioeable if any of
the subsequent achoola can boast of more faemrable
rotates from that great Gentre—.South Kensing-
ton—than ours. y in the possession of the
abilities of Mr. Gill the primary section—art--
sad Mr. Beard in the scientific, it is a wonder, indeed,
that the number of student. is so limited, y as
the result of their individual and joint irarten is so
pleasing. As the report above shows the school km,
during the last term, sufficed materially by reason of
the irreparable loss of many of its advanced adepts, so
that if the school, at the close of the next term shows
suck marvellous moors as it now does, it will be a
matter of wonder. It is not that the ladies and
gontleinee so long associated with the school, are relax-
ing their aortal and sympathy, on the contrary; but
the secret lies In the actual want of etudes's. This
fact is not consistent with the knowledge that promis-
ing genius, only wanting developmeot, lies imbedded
In many of the scholars attending various schools in the
town and neighbourhood. Parente are not sufilLiently
alive to the fact of how much, of even the rudimental
knowledge of science and art, will assist their children
Is whatever career may be marked out for them. If
they doubt it, let them give their diadem a fair trial,
and In nine cases out of 10 the youth of both sexes
will take such an interest in their studies, that no
pleading will be required to make them acquainted
with the compound grades. We are apt to forget
that knowledge is power—it is even so in the case of
semi-barbarous nations, then surely it is so in • cow
plating, civilised nation, such as ours is to-day. Labour
Is essentia3, and in labour, even without education,
them is dignity But the youth who are to-day
receiving the blessings—the untold Mewing, ads cheap
and sound education will find when fighting the battle
of life with • cold world, that educated skill will
always fetch the highest price in the market. livery
intelligeet schcollesy well knows that art in indu-try
will adorn acienific productions, and, indeed, edam
and art must go band in hand, they go so to-day, then
how much more will they need to be amalgamated to-
morrow, when all who are not wilfully blind must see
this new elements are being daily introduced into
iadastrial competition. The fact that science and art
must be called to help skill in every breach, has bees
so to speak, accepted as a state principle is England
and America, sad it I. an accepted truth—the know.
ledge of these subject in thesis entirety will, another
day, be the only thing to it the youth of the present
to compete with these with whom circumstances will
plant them. We have seen this truth verified, and we
see it to-day. If the parents will not accept such a
local advantage as the lirldport Act School offers—
why, thee, in slue years, their children will not have
the trouble to thank them for login • golden oppor-
tunity.
