acquitted themselves very croditably.
The exercises were commenced on Thurs
day morning by the examination Of Miss S.
A. TREAT's school, in Pcstalozzian Arithme-
tic, Second Glass Reader, and Declarations
Considering the age Of the scholars wo see
no reason why parents should not feel fiat
tered by the advances of their children in
education, and the teacher feel as if the Ia
Dor bestowed on them had not been in vain.
From % until 1o4 O'clock A. NJ, was oc-
cupied in exercises by Miss L. CowDEN's
school. Scholars in this school showed
marked discipline, and we have seldom
seen set of scholars under better training.
