us to draw ont and exhibit the real acquire
mcnts Of each student, unadcd by any prcvi-
Gus special preparation for the occasion.
The examination of the students in the
male department under the immediate change
of the Principal himself, evinccd most clear
ly the thoroughncss of the system adopted
by DR.. Arnold, and the mastery acquired by
him over the minds of his pupils. They not
only exhibited very considerable proficiency

gratifying to the committee and we doubt
not also to those parents who were present,
TO witness the confidence Of the pupils in

happy, but rare faculty of cxactinS implicit
obedience and commanding respect without
exciting in the minds of his pupils the slight
