IHE NEBRASKA BILL.-This bill has
undergone so many changes that none

full proceedings Of Congress can tell its

TEACHERS, EXAMINATIONS.

1t may be seen by reference to a notice
in this raper, (The Standard, that the
School Examiners have permanently fixed
the times for examining teachers, and that
such examinations will not be conducted
on any other days. The law requiring
certain days to DC set apart for this pur-
pose, was not enacted simply to accommo-
date ms or That teacher, but for the ben
eft of all the teachers--to suit the ma
jority, and not the minority.
1t is not reasonable to suppose that the
Board of Examiners should hold an extra
session, at an extra expense to the coun-
ty OF $3.50, merely 10 accommodate II
single individual, who for some cause or
other, did not attend on Il regular exami-
nation day. The law does not authorize
it, nor are the examiners under anv obi.
cations to 90 So TO hold examinations
oftener than the Board now contemplate,
would be a needless expense. and there
fore unauthorized, and unjustifable and
to give certificates on any other days than
those expressly SET apart for the purpose,
would entitle the examiners to no compcn-
sation, and would render the certificates
thus illegally issued, of no value to the
holders.
Its proper to state. that hereafter ap
plicants will be examined by written oues
tons, and their answers thereto, be re.
quircd in writing, and every such exami-
nation, be carefully preserved and filed
away for future reference; so that a com.
pletc record of each, can be open to pub
lie inspection, or published as the case
may require. Examiners will thus have
the means of defending themselves from
any unjust imputations by unsuccessful
applicants, BY bringing their examinations
and answers uerbatim et Hieraiim, before
the public eye. This course will have
the very desirable effect of elevating good
teachers, and bringing them into notice,
and OF driving bal ones from the profess
on, or of causing them to qualify them.
selves before making any further appli-
,ation to teach.
The Board also intend to publish the
lame OF each applcant-the grade or
lass of certificate he receives, the time
or which it is valid, branches
pecifed, and any other items of impor-
ance or interest connected Herewith, that
nay be suggested. We would say to
be not discouraged, but "be up
