Graded Schools.-The systC

Graded Scholastic system
Of graded schools is becoming very popu
lar throughout the State. Most OF our
reading educators are in favor of this sys-
tom, and when introduced, it has gener-
ally met with unqualified success. The
advantage OF this system is, that without
increasing the burden of taxation, it
places a good English, Scientific aud
Classical education within the reach OF
oil who desire it.
We think it probable that sn effort will
be made to place the Academy on this
basis, including the school districts for
,hrce or four miles adjoining the village.
Il will be well 10 discuss the matter.
