TRAVELLERS' SCHOOLS.

The annual examination of the children educated
and maintained in this institution, which has • temporary
iocatioe at Wanstead, a charming little village on the bur-
den of Epping Forest, was held yesterday. The atten-
dance on these occasions is generally very large, the plea-
eantneu of the drive and the interesting character of the
•aamioxion combining to impart a more than common zest
to ttc preceedings, but the unpropitious state of the wea-
ther p.sterlity had of nurse a considerable effect upon the
matcher of visitors.
Amongst those present were Mr. George 3loore, Mr. A.
Moore, Mr. J. R. Cuttley, the Rev. T. Stephens (Curate of
the parish), Mr. R. C. Woolloton, Mr. J. L. Evans, Mr.
Treacher, Mr. Blake, Mr. C. Woolloton, Mr. Gunton, and
many other gentlemen. There was abet a large proportion
of ladies, who of course took great interest in the domestic
details of tie establishment, and appeared greatly deFghted
with all the arrangements, as well as with the healthy and
happy look of the children. indeed, the greatest credit
seemed to Deane to all the officers, and particularly to Miss
Cooper, the matran.
At too o'clock use tympany assembled in the School-
room. and

Mr. Haw'sr having been called to the chair, expressed
the regret which he was sure they would all feel at the com-
parative smallness of the attendance, but he thought that
that feeling would be considerably alt mated when they had
witnessed the satisfactory examination which the children
were about to undergo. A preliminary examination had
already been made by Mr. J. G. Fitch, Jul A., Vice-Pre-
sident of the British and Foreign Trainins, Institution,
Borough-road, who had subjected their attainments to the
most searching test ; and the result, as the company would
see from Mr. Fiteh's report, had ken such as fully to
juatify the reputation the school had already acquired, and
to hold out promisor of yet higher excellence. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. C. Woota.oron then read the report, a long and
Minute document, the ourport of which will be seen
from the following trines : Premising that his
inspection had been yrevented by want of time from
extending beyond the higher classes, Mr. FITCH said :
Fire hours of ince slant questioning have sufficed to
prove to me that very considerable advance has been made
ereet last year, and that your schools are at this moment in
estate of efficienc7, both as to discipline and attainments,
of which you have great reason to be proud. Tne writing
of the first class of boys showed a somewhat freer and more
Moine,. like style than last year, combined with great neat-
ness. Toe arithmetical questions I proposed bore chiefly
reference to commercial subject., and I was pleased here to
ate as well as in the writing, that the training of the boys
has had a direct reference to:the formation of good business
habits, rather than to the acquirements of any ornamental
accomplishments. • • The teaching had been
emind and logical ; affording good mental discipline for the
learners, and yet making them quick and skilful computer,.
The must remarkable improvement in this class is manifest
in relation to the subjects ef history and chronology ; and
the English and Latin language,. I never met with a body
of schoolboys of their age who answered with greater
clearness and propriety. The reading of the class, though
not remarkably good, was intelligent, and fur the meet
pet accurate. the manner in which my geographical
questions were taken up, and the general readiness anti
pleasure which the boys seemed to feel in answer-
ing them, also impressed me most favourably.
Tat wcoad class of boys as a very.promising one. In arith-
metic they nuked well up to i'rac,ice, and made very
rapidly some mental calculations which I proposed to them.
Their knowledge of scripture history and et geography ap-
peered unusually creditable, although in the other depart-
ments they showed great intelligence and answered rely
corral y. It Itlo highest class of girls, the general de-
meanour of the children, and the modesty with which their
answers were given, were particularly pleasing. Some
sums in the Rule of Three and in Interest were worked gene.
tell by the class, and a few questions in mental al ithmetic
were well answered. Their answers in history led me to
eappese titat it was a favourite subject with the elder girls,
sad that they pursue it voluntarily at leisure hours. I
Lou pr, posed to them many ques'.ons relating to the gee-
graphicrl prition, productions, he., of the Brush Colonic:,
Mich revived creditable replies. The answers in English
Gramm evinced a good knowledge of that important sub.
itch The second clam of girls I interrogated rather mi.
Widely on the geography of, Ireland, and on some portions
of stritote history. In the replies of the children, and in
the working of some simple sums as well asiin their writing,
lam ahri to week.: that, though of course there is
kin ki.owledge, there is the Lade completeness end
Ihornsghness in all that less been dark, and the Brune finish
sod 'ace :honey as in the higher case. I spent a abort time
with th• :'wee claws of girls, and put a good many simple
questions in spelling, arithmetic, history, and geography,
to wtu,L the link outs replied with great s ieacity and in-
teUiptee. They arc decidedly in advance of most children
are. It is with real pkaanre that I assure the coin.
huttee in my judgment the past year hos been one of Be-
hrs and very weli.directederfat on the part of both teachers
and ch.iken. Mobility hex been the great characteriatis of
the tes.hine, while it is very ev.d. tat that the children have
beta autereted in the work and here porsuef it with plea•
auto, It is an important but ry uousu it thing to combine
in any school *tricot-re of discipline, great patience and
gersrecy in all the dot sibs of siody with • general tone of
hulauttt and niataal allectiun. I tt,ick tii,et year by
