/ The High pc hS.o1 T. y rom, na lin oui
notice of school meters last week, we omitted
particular notice of the Examina'ion "
| es in the High School. Examining Coliinli''eeS u
the several classes were appointed ana wee psf
ed to receive reports of these committees IN time
for our paper, but we received only one report IN
time for our last weeks issue We were necessa-
rily absent from the High School examination DIS
a member of the Committee to examine the lo"ei
departments, and we were, therefore, not prepaf-
ed to speak of the exercises from personal ooserV-
alton
Although we have not received formal reports
from all the Examining Committees. we have been
assured By members who were present that the ex-
a1ninations were highly satisfactory throughout
The following report of the committee on Ian
gauges, speaks for ITSELF
The committee assigned the duty Of examining
the classes in Languages, having taltniully dttelu
ed to that duty, are gratifed TO be able 70 make
such report to the Board, as is highly cfed!taDIe
to the scholars, the teachers and the reputation
Kenosha High School The classes and the teach-
ers gave evidence that they had sought to be thor
ough in their work and eYinced the practicapii'y
of the study of the languages in such schooi.
Quite large class, taught by Miss NJ b. Patter,
son, were examined in the Latin Grammar anu

showed that the teacher had been faithful, and
yet the committee thought that another thorough
review would have been beneficial in fixing III the
mind more permanently the elements OF the IAN
guage.
Some Of the members in the class in Virgil found
some rough places, yet got over them without
any broken bones. As q whole the class acquitted
itself ereditably. The classes in Cicero ana Sal
lust showed that they had evidently not been idle,
but had sought to conquer what they went over
The examination was decidedly good.
A class of six young men were examined IN
Greek-Zenophon' Ana5asiS-and eeyinced
thoroughness of study rarely surpassed in any In
stituton. If the palm is to be awarded to any
class, this will take it. Tha examination was der
cidedly excellent. Kenosha may well be proud
of affordng facilities for such discipline as was
exhibited in all the classes.
And while believing that a superficial study OF
the Languages is detriment to true scholarship,
bnt thorough drilling in them affords one OF the
best means of disciplining the mind the commit
tee felt that word of commentator was due to
Mr.. l. Stone, the successful Principal ofthe School,
who has ha9 the charge of all these classes except
the one in Latin Grammar and Reader, Tor the
thorough manner in which he drills his classes IN
the Languages.

PursOn BrOyvHIOyV's Rockville anxiousiy
expected narrative ofthe origin of the rebellion,
and of personal experiences among the Secession
lists of Tennessee, by Rev. w. G. Brownlow. L. L..
D., is now in the hands Of the books oilers. 1t
contains about 500 pages, printed on fine, white

with twelve superior wood-cU+-, fac smile of q
characteristic letter of the author to j. p. Benja-

mech anical execution, and size of the work, rem
der it one of the cheapest publications in the mar
ket.
The narrative has the attractive charm of a per-
sonal experience. The author vouches for the &C
curacy of its statements. The public may there
fore accept it as not only reliable but peculiar
chapter in the general history of the times; and
we are confident that more significant, st art

its minute personal and social bearings, isnow
accessible.
