THE CORPORATION SCHOOLS

THE Education Committee of the Town-council deem it
right, on account of the misrepresentotions that have been
repeatedly set forth, to take this method of informing the
community, and especially the poor inhabitants of the bo-
rough, who desire to obtain a good education for their chil-
dren, what the principle really is on which the schools are
conducted, namely, the equal maintenance of religious truth
and of liberty of conscience.

While, on-the one hand, the council feels itself respon-
sible for the education which it provides, and therefore bound
to provide what it considers a sound education ; on the other
hand, it recognises also the obligation to secure this advan-
tage, so far as possible, alike to all, whatever may be their
differences of creed.

It is true that the rules require every child to be taught
to know the Bible—the great charter of the Christian privi-
leges—and to be brought up in the daily practice of solemn
prayer to God.

But care will be taken that there be nothing in the
prayer which can wound the conscience of any Christian of
any denomination ; and no children are required to learn
any catechism, or to go to church, if their parents object.
The committee therefore invite all their poor fellow-
townsmen to send their children to the school, and not to be
prevented by the representations of others, but to judge for
themselves.

They will not believe that there are many individuals
among their fellow-townsmen who will object to their chil-
dren reading the Bible, and praying together with the chil-
dren of their neighbours.
