Or whelming torrent through, may be the life

6rmness were the two qualities which would con-
troll net only the most obstinate, but the most vic.
iOus. Gao it be be believed that intelligent beings

every one TO be q teacher Of youth, any more than
it is given to every Ohe to be a trainer Of horses.
Thereare other qualifications required other than
a familiarity with the spelling-book or the manual
of horsemanship. Patience. equanimity, Grmness
and gentleness are not met with every day united
10 one individual, but they should be sought, for
they can be found. Let our school controllers
look to this matter, and scrutinize these quali6ca-
tons, as we'll as those which include photography.

who acknowledge their inability to control child

FLOGGING IN SCHOOLS.

A case of whipping which recently occur
red in one Of our public schools. has led to a dis.
cussion of the whole subje ct by the press. and a
legal decision in regard TO it by the Courts. In
the case in question, the teacher was acquitted,
and therefore We presume did not u~njustly exer.
else The authority delegated to her, and conse-
quently is liable to no censure. The legal author
ity of a teacher t. inaict punishment, arises en-
tirely, in our opinion, from the delegation of the
parent. In placing q child at school the parent
has a right to delegate to the teacher just as much
OF his authority as he deems proper, and if be
choose to notify the teacher that he gave him no
authority to fog his child, any fOgging by the
teacher would in law be an assault. The parent,
therefore, has the regulation Of the matter in his
own hand; in the absence Of any direction by the
parent, we presume that the placing a child a, a
school where corporal punishment was known to
be inflicted, would be considered by the Courts az
an acquiescence in that mode of discipline, and
the parent would have no right to complain.
We are, We confess, among those who think that
no such power should ever be delegated either ex,
pressly or by implication. 1t is the most delicate
duty a parent is ever called upon to perform, and
no one but a parent can ever lndlct it with the
proper discretion. The disposition, state of health,
and the numerous peouliar;ties Of the child are ali
10 be taken into consideration. We have lately
seen a case reported in An English paper where |
child was beaten to death for dullness and stupid
ity. who was suffering from water On the brain
the teacher cOnfOuhdiug the effects of disease with
willful obstinacy. Punishment, except in thu
very rarest cases, is inflicted by the teacher when
in anger. Nature has SO constituted us, tina
while with our own children we can be forbearing
considerate. aud calm. the same amount of aggra
walton from the children of others exoites the tenn
per in spite Of our selEcontrol. 10 the one cas-,
We would iuhict punishment with regret. in tn,
other with satisfaction.
1t a poor remedy at the best. even in III,
hands Of parents; the necessity fr it is more
~reproach to them THAI to the child. Mr.. RARE,
has lately shown the world that all the crue
