Nh PierPoni.-The pew-proprietors Of the
Hollis Street Church, Boston, are making an
eiior, TO dismiss the Rer. j. Pierpont from
the pastoral care Of his church and society,"
An effort, il is said, has been made, by buying
up pews TO get a majority Of the proprielors,
who are opposed TO him. The head and front
Of his offending is, bis devotion to temperance !;
and the free expression of his views on the sub
jec, Of slavery. Other things are brought in
10 make the plea more palateable, such as bis
publishing school books, &c. &C. Few men
stand higher 10 public estimation than MIR
Pierpont He is extensively known as a
scholar, poet, philanthropist, and divine. We
learn that Mr. Pierpont is willing TO have the
difficulty decided by mutual council, but his
opposers will not concent TO il. We presume
his friends will no, suffer him TO leave Boston.
But il be leaves he will soon find place 10 la
bcr The pastor can better afford TO lose the
church, than the church to dismiss him. Mr.
p. can find churches enough--bui Hollis Street
Church can't find another John Pierpont He
is an ornament 10 Boston, 10 the denomination
to which he belongs, (Unitarian) and 10 our
whole country.

ScnooL Trkcnras.--A AS the time draws near
when our winter schools are 10 commence, we
would call the attention Of our readers to the
importance Of engaging competent teachers
The idea that the cheapest teachers should be
employed, we fear is not wholly slowed away
among the errors of the past II has been
heretofore thought that almost any one would

an individual had these thread-bare qualifca-
tious, he was regularly installed "master,'
without one inquiry into lEs capacity as in
skull, with ferulc in hand, lording il over
some thirty or fifty scholars, who could not
imparl an idea to those under bim, except wha
went through the medium OF his badge Of au
thorily. Even now, while writing, we eau re-
member the uplified ferule, which used TO set
tie many hard questions, for the poor scholar
But though I'VE now live in an age Of greater
light yet SO far as schooi-teaching, and school
teachers, are concerned, we have not come az
TO what we ought. Iii now, too often til,
case when the committee man goes out 10 en-
gage an instructor, that he thinks ii Of mor'
consequence TO save two or three dollars in BIZ
pocket, by hiring cheap teacher, than TO pa,
the highest price for the best teacher. But ih
is bad policy II is Of the utmost consequence,
that those who have the care Of youth, shoul,
be qualified for the task. School teacher
should not only understand the branches ihel
profess to teach, aud possess an ability to ex
plain them TO their pupils, but they should b

pupils, is great; il canno, be compared 10 dollar
