certificate signed by yourself, or by some authorized person on
your part, to the effect that he has actually enlisted in the
force in question, and should produce the same at this de-
partment, in order that the proper entries may be made in
the Hospital Books, and any pension then due to him may

RULES OF THE POLISH ASSOCIATION OF
MUTUAL INSTRUCTION,
FOR THE REGULATION OF PUPILS•ATTENDING THEIR
GRATUITOUS LECTURES.
The Polish Association of Mutual Instruction, who gratui-
tously teach the French, German, and Polish Languages' to
those children whose parents possess no adequate means to
pay teachers, have deemed proper to: resolVe the following
rules and regulations :-
1. Every youth, previous to being permitted to attend the-
lectureet must be able to read and write well his own language.

delivered weekly to every pupil ; either on Monday, Wednes-
day, and Friday, or on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
3. The pupil to inscribe his name in a book kept for the
purpose ; and to be permitted to chose the three alternate
days most convenient for him to attend.
4. If the pupil is unable to provide himself with the ne-
cessary books for his instruction, he is to receive them from
the Association, but when promoted to a higher class, where
they are no longer used, or when he ceases to attend the lec-
tures, he is bound to return them. A careful and proper use
of them is expected.
5. The pupil on inscribing his name, must make a declara-
tion, that he will attend regularly, study diligently, and be of
good behaviour during the lectures.
6. Should the pupil by any reason whatever be prevented
from attending the Lesson, be is bound to bring for the en-
suing one, a testimony from his parents or tutors, that his ab-
sence was with their knowledge.

lesson, he is expected to ask his parents or tutor to acquaint
the teacher of the class to which he may belong, of his inabi-
lity to attend.

obliged, to withdraw himself entirely from *e School ; in
which case, the books of the Association are to be returned.

tutor.

improvement, the pupil to be dismisled.
11. Pupils distinguished for diligent study, and exemplary
conduct, will, on being promoted to a higher class, receive an
additional testimony of the approbation of the Association. A
certificate of the pupils merits is never to be refused if re-
quested by the parents or tutor.
12. It is the intention of the Association to give to the
most prominent and assiduous pupils—not a reward, because
the pupil will find it in the benefit he derives from his own
exertions—but a gratifying token of their approbation.
