TIE DUTY OF SCHOOL EXAMINERS.

THE DUTY OF SCHOOL EXAMINERS.
1t may be supposed by some, perhaps
by many, that School Examiners have
little or nothing to do with the moral
character of those who apply for certif-
Gates; that if they properly test the ap-
plcanrs knowledge of reading, writing,
spelling, geography, arithmetic and
grammar, they have not only done their
duty but their whole duty; and that tc
go beyond this is unwarrantable imperi
tincnce. The extreme laxity which has
hitherto characterized the examination o.
teachers has tended to the formation o.
this Incorrect estimate of the duty of Ex
aminers. Those who occupy this highly
responsible post should never FOR a mo
ment lose sight of this fact, or underratc
its influence upon themselves and upor
the community. They should remember
that the probability is that their owl
estimate of their duty in this respect il
TOO low, and act accordingly.-OhiO JO@"

By letter from A. D. LORD Of Colum-

that the distinguished gentleman intends
visiting our county, if deemed advisable
by the friends here. The introduction to
our community, of men of liberal educa.
ton and extensive information and ac-
quiremcnts, laboring in any reform, must
be of vast Importance to us but coming
as he does in the cause of education, i'm.
PEELED by the noblest impulses, actuated
by the purest motives, and glowing with
an Interested zeal, his advent at this time
must be attended with the most benef.
cial results. His long experience and
connection with the cause induce the be.
lief that he has treasured up facts which
it would be to our advantage to know
There is a lifelessness in the cause of ed
ucation here, which must be overcome be,
fore our schools can attain that position
which they should hold. Let us roust
ourselves, throw off this lethargy, ant
stand forth in the fight like men. "a
word to the wise is sufficient"
In the event of bis coming we bespeak
for him hearty welcome, and patient
hearing.

Our world has always contained large

"penny-wise and pound foolish since
they attend with great pertinacity to those
concerns, which are of the least impor.
tance, and omit those which should claim
their closest attention. Among those
none have attained more unenviable no

been well said by one, that we may as
well build school houses as jailS, for one

educate our children in the school.room
as in hepriSon. Welnay as well support
them in the school-room, fitting them for
usefulness to themselves, and their fell

friends, as support them in prisons which
are but dens Of infamy and haunts of vice
Many in order to leave their children
"great sums of gold," will deprive them
of an education partly on account of
the mcagre pittance which their labors
will secure, and partly on account of the
paltry amount they would have to ex-
pand on books and tuition. But where
is the policy in this? The ignorance and
unlettercd are always liable to be duped
in trade, and may lose more in a single
transaction, on account of their ignorance,
than would have given them a good edu-
cation. Success in business, depends not
alone upon knowledge of per centags,
