The people OF Canada will be astonishrd
upon the reception al the order issued by the
British Government for the suppression Of

too valuable 10 pert with she must, Therefore =,
on the ground olfintercsi, openly maintain
a uniform and general principle Of action.
Were the people Of Canada, like our fore.
fathers who resisted. British oppression, We
Ohouid expect that yhis order, rusrrGt Of parr

strengthen IN their bosoms the resolution "a

and decided ground than they have yet done,
but with the result oCthc flare up Of ls27 before

Ineffective though not powcrless minority .-
We wish CBnnda might be independent, at

The Superintendent then made an elaborate
and interesting report OF the condition of the
Schools IN the Gounty-TbST they are IN a oct
ter state than they were last winter-especially
in Concord-but that they are yet many of
them. at loast-very far from being what they
should be. The Deficiencies arc mostly ,improp.
cr School. Houses unsuitable Books, and not
near enough OF them, such as they are, and
incompetent Teachers, incompetent both in
point Of capacity To instruct, and in point of
FEELING deep &Hse Of tho responsibility of
th-rr r,issiur--titouEh tte-Sehoois arr brtt-r
supplied, as general thing, with Teachers,
this winter, than they were last. The great
cause Of all this is, want of sufficient inter.

Schools on the part of the parents. This point
he pressed strongly. t---------
