goveroweut for the undiminished payment of the allow-
mum hitherto granted to them on certain conditions as long

prove■ of the principle of public aid being given to elemen-
tary schools according to their success in performing their
work, sod adm of the principle of paid assistants in schools
Icing weevil according to the market value of their ser-
vices from time to time ; hut thatitcousiders that the manner
le which it is proposed in the revised code to give effect to
those priscipkts is in some respects objectionable. —3. That
the provi dons of the article 40, according to which the pro-
posed capitation grant is to he paid in respect of the attain-
ments the children in reading, writing, and arithmetic,
are not satisfactory.-4. That any system of public aid
to schools ought to include some specific advantage
to schools in which the Munches of instruc-
tics above the elessente are successfully taught.

factory. —6. That the diary and big book described in

Meet alundoeieg the direct C 0111143144011 which it has hitherto
usaintaitial with pupil teachers and other resistant teachers

managers of schools to decide whether or not they will have
each pr pit Modicum assistants.

code had been modified, no change from the °repeal anise-
Leo of the government had been introdumd. bet rely
eertaie portions of the code rendered more clear. He de-
diced to follow Lord Lyttelton into the goodies M the
treinieg college., but assured him that, although the medal
metabolites might carry no pecuniary advantage, yet the
demand for the holders of such certificates would cause au
augmentation of salaries to obtain their senior. With
mull to the equital•le claims of certificated teachers
sod queen's scholars, it had been decided by the com-
missioners. after . receivios evidence, that no such claims
misted. Having premised that he thought the diary and
logbook stoutl be of the greatest use. he proceeded
to
