OPENING OF ST. GILES'S NATIONAL SCHOOLS.

Yesterday afternoon the fine building lately
erected at the corner of Endell-street as parochial
schools for the parish of St. Giles's was formally
opened. The ceremony was to have been performd
by Lord John Russell, but his lordship was una-
voidably absent.
The Hon. Arthur Kinnaird, M.P., was called to
the chair, and the proceedings were opened with
prayer and singing.
The Rev. A. IV. THOROLD, the rector of St.
Giles's, read a short paper on the school building.
It stated that the parish contained a population,
clo'sely packed, of 37,400 souls; Although much
had been done by the exertions of good men in that
district, the moral and social position of the work-
ing classes was mostly at a very low level. Those
numbers represented about 5,000 children of school
age. Various attempts had been made to give
them the elements of instruction. Ragged schools,
parochial schools, and night schools, had to some
extent broken up the fallow ground and sowed it
with the seeds of the gospel. In all these cases
the education was gratuitous, so that other arrange-
ments were necessary to meet the large artisan
class who were willing to hear part of the expense.
Thirty years ago Mr. Endell Tyler, who was the
rector of the parish, erected the schools which they
were about leaving, and it was determined that
the new schools should be erected when the Govern-
ment inspector reported that the old schools were
deficient in plan and insufficient in accommodation.
The site on which the new building was erected
had cost £4,000, but from its airiness and its
proximity to the great mass of the population, it
was considered to be worth its price. The total
cost of the building amounted to £12,500. A grant
of £3,000 had been made by the Committee of
Council on Education, aud £9,000 had been promptly
subscribed by the owners of property and the
parishioners, leaving £5OO to be subscribed. The
Duke of Bedford had subscribed liberally to the
schools.
The Hon. ARTHUR KINNAIRD said that, after tho
interesting paper which had been read, it would be
a matter of deep regret that Lord John Russell hall
not been able to attend, and that such a valuable life
as that of the Duke of Bedford should be placed in
jeopardy. It had been his privilege for many years,
as a member of the House of Commons, to witness
the untiring zeal of Lord John Russell in the great
cause of national education, the rapid progress of
which was a cause of great satisfaction. He be-
lieved that if there was safety for a country, it
would be found in a sound scriptural education.
Sir J. K. SHUTTLEWORTH also regretted the
absence of Lord John Russell, because tie should
have been glad if his lordship could have had per-
sonal experience of the way in which the difficul-
ties of such a parish as this could be overcome by
the combined exertions of the rector and pari-
shioners on the one hand, and the Committee of•
Council on Education on the other. He described
the parish of St. Giles a cesspool of the metropolis,
and a foul ulcer in the body politic. Through the
medium of these schools he hoped its abandoned
population might be effectually reached. The hon.
baronet concluded by proposing a resolution which
recognised the progress of public sympathy in the
education of the poor, and expressed a hope that
the owners of property in the parish, and the
parishioners generally, would make provision for
the permanent maintenance of the schools in efficient
working order. •
The resolution was unanimously adopted.
The Rev. E. BAILEY, rector of St. George's,
Bloomsbury, in moving a vote of thanks to the
chairman, said he was formerly incumbent of Wo-
burn, and had had many opportunities of witness-
ing the zeal which the Duke Of Bedford had shown
in the work of education. He felt quite sure that
when he heard of what had taken place to-day he
would be cheered and comforted in his illness.

Mr. HAWTHORNE, of Gower-street, seconded the
resolution, which was carried.
Mr. KINNAIRD, having briefly returned thanks,
the Doxology was sung, and the meeting separated.
Miss Burdett Coutts and many ladies were pre-
sent during the proceedings.
