The PUBLIC SCHOOL ExAMTHATIoN.-we con.
tinue to-day our notices of the Public School ex-
aminations now in progress:
The examination of the assistants department
OF Second District School, under the charge of
Mrs. Meyers, took place Wednesday afternoon
In presence OF large number of the friends of
the pupils. Among the visitors We noticed
Messrs Abbott, former Secretary to Board Of
Sci ools of our sister city Georgetown F. Letter
son, Esq, ex-COunclman Of the Second Ward
II. c Richards, Esq and others The exercises
We're conducted by Messrs. Randolph, Van SAINT
voord and DIR. lronSidr, Trustees, assisted by
Mr.. Richards. The examination OF the classes
In reading, spelling, geography, writing from
dictstion. arithmetic, (mcntal AID written.) was
very thorough on the part of the examiD ers and
crediiable 10 the pupils The pupils appeared
to excel in arithmetic, and the accuracy with
which they set down and calculated the sums
given deserves commentator. The monotony
Of the exercises Was relieved by singing by the
boys. We hope to see at the rest of the exami-
nations as large an attendance Of the friends of
education as was at this one. After short ad-
dresses by Messrs. Jefferson and Ironside in
which they exhorted the pupils to take advantage
Of the opportunities offered them to acquire
good education in order that they may become
good and useful members of society, the exer-
cises closed.
At the examination OF the third department of
Primary School No. J., Third District, several
friends of the school. Or. Walsh and Cbas VIII
son, Trustees, were present This department Of
the school consists OF about sev~nty-eight pupils
and was organized at the commencement Of thu
present school year, and Miss Thompson placed
IN charge The examination was very satsfac-
tory, and shows adm rable training for so short
time; many Of them writing well and spelling
correctly. This is triple school, under three
ettcient teachers; and not more than about thirty
Of the whole number bat can read and write
The pupils have. for some six weeks, been in
structed in vocal music by Mr.. w. A. Lovelace,
and have made admirable progress; his system
Of instruction seems to interest the pupils very
much, and they sing with great spirit. This ex-
eTcise, no doubt, exerts great moral influence
with the children outside well as in the
schools. ..

third district, Miss Hilton, teacher, was exam
inrd by Frederick Whyte, Esq. The Secretary
Of the Board OF Trustees (Mr. Ricketts.) MI
