From tile H'estmoreland Republica,
QUALIFICATIONS OF TEACHERS.

Improvement has been made in the qualifca-
tions of the teachers of cur public schools, but
there is still quite large margin to be filled up.
The qualifications which should be happily
blended so lis to constitute the successful teach
er, should be of as high an order as in any
other calling in life. Many engage in the busi-
ness with but small Investment of capital, and
still less natural fitness for the work, and the
results failure on their part, "a permanent
injury inflicted or the pupils, and the profession
lowered in the estimation of the people.
No one should more "magnify his office" than
the teacher. No one should strive harder to
make none but impressions shat will have in
fuence for good. No one should wish to be
employed as teacher who has not, at least, a
respectable knowledge of the branches taught
in our schools who has not, dis base of ope-
rations, sound common sense, enthusiastic de-
yotion to his work, perseverance, cheerfulness,
hope, sympathy, and strictly moral, if not a
christian. character Sound common sense would
appear to be necessary in every calling, and it
may seen unnecessary to paIticulaIize; but it
sometimes is lacking, yet neuer should be in a
teacher. His Judgment is constantly in requis-
tion, and if tbs fails him in his time of need,
his future influence with the school will be en-
tirely lost Does it not require amature judg-
ment to know the capacities of his various pu-
pills; to know how much labor should be given
in order to make the success of the scholar
barely possible-to know hog and ,chen to en-
courage--hoto and tcaen to pvnish to be able
to judge Of the proprieties of his own conduct
SO that he may be an example worthy OF imi-
tatlon.
BY the teachers being possessed of an en-
thusiastic devotion for his work, we do not
mean that he should be wild enthusiast, but
one who has such u desire for his own, and the
improvement Of his pupils, that he will bring all
his energies to bear upon his work-thus MAX
ing himself much more efficient, and creating
corresponding enthusiasm in all associated with
him. Notice the influence of the energetic, de-
voted worker He pursues his course onward,
regardless of difficulties. The current is not
always uM him, but he strives to create a nesc
current, which gathering force and volume in
its course, finally bears all with it. This, coup
led with perseverance,, to enable him to cent!n-
ue onward in his course-with cheerfulness to
enliven-with hope to encourage, and enable
him to see the rays of gold that are always
mingled with the darkest shadows-with SYM
pathy to enable him to appreciate the efforts and
trial of those by whom he is surrounded-and
a moral, if not christian character, that he
may be living model, always acting in obedi-
ence in the convictions OF duty, will be an al
most certain passport to success.

DoueIAs ON SUMNER there was any man
that the lamented Senator Douglas regarded
with abhorrence, it was Senator Sumner, OF Mas
sachusetts. Here is portrait that he drew of
him in debate in 1854. Addressing himself to
him, he said:
els there anything in the means by which he
got here to give him a superiority over other
gentlemen who came by ordinary means! Is
there anything to Justify it in the fact that he
came here with a deliberate avowal that be would
never obey one clause Of the Constitution OF the
United States, and yet put his hands upon the
Holy Bible, in the presence Of this body, and
appealed to Almighty God that he would be
faithful to the Constitution, and with pledge
OF perjury on his soul, by violating both that
oath and tho Constitutionf He came here with
pledge to periurs himself as the condition of
eligibility to the place. Has he a right to ar
raign us because we felt it to be our duty to be
faithful to that Constitution which he disavows,
to that oath which he assumes and then repudi-
ates2 The Senate have not forgotten the debate
on the Fugitive Slave Law, when the Senator
said, in reply to question whether be was in
favor of carrying into effect that clause of the
Constitution for the rendition of fugitive slaves
"Is thy servant dog, that he should do this
thing?" A dog to be true to the Constitution of
your country! A dog unless you are traitor!
That was his position; and still he comes here
and arraigns US for crimes, and talks about au-
dacity! Did mortal man ever witness such au-
dacity in an avowed criminal!"

sometimes so different from that assumed
when standing, as to strike the most care.

is not of much practical Importance.
We have now spoken of
I. Objects of Recitation-and under this
head
/, To enable the teacher to learn how
well pupils have prepared their lessons.
2, To afford the teacher an opportunity
to explain different points.
3, To fix the facts and principles of the
lesson in the pupils mind.
4, To cultivate the pupils powers of cx-
preston.
II. Of Preliminary Requisites to Rscita-
tion-and under this head:
1, Recitation Seats.
., Maps, Globes, charts and other appa-
|ratus.
3, Thorough preparation on the part 0!

4, Entire familiarity with the lesson on
the part OF the teacher.
Ill. General Methods of Recitation

l, The lnterogative Method--divided
into The Consecutive Method,
The Promiscuous Method,
The Simultaneous Method, and
The Silent Method.
2, The Topical Method.
3, The Didactic Method-divided into
The Conversational form, and
The Lecture Proper.
". Some General Remarks.
We have thus concluded what we had to
say under the first three divisions of our
subject. Specific Methods" remain to be
discussed. Under this head We propose to
submit some practical suggestions as to the
best methods of teaching the several branch
es. We shall, in few weeks, take up our
subject where we now leave it.
