INTERMEDIATE SCHOOLS.

The examination Of the Public
Schools was continued yesterday in
the intermediate Grade of the Upper
Building, being the Girls uterine
diate, taught by Miss Cherry, Prin
cipsl, and Mss Badger, Assistant,
and the B - Intermediate, taught
by Miss O'Byrue, Principal, and Miss
Britton, Assistant, The Rotations
were of the same character as those
of the Ninth Street Building. noticed
yesterday. There was a good attend
sHee of parents aAd friends Of the
children, and they very generally
pressed their qualification at the re
sult of the examinations, and the ev-
ident progress made during the year
Among the improvements noticed
were the greater use Of the black
boards in arithmetic, Of the outline
maps IN geography, aud the manner
in which the pupils are exercised in
expressing, in their own language,
the principles and ideas derived from
the text books. We have referred to
the exercise In definitions In our no
tice Of the Primary examinations;
in the intermediate grade this prac-
tice is more fully aud satisfactorily
carried out, and its good results are
more apparent. The improvement
written arithmetic during the year is
quite noticeable. Prof. Tinker's ex-
animation in music, especially in the
girls school, was quite Interesting
and satisfactory. The class in Ger
man demonstrated that Mr.. DeBus
had been quite successful IN his years
work, the pupils reading and transia-
ting readily, responding promptly TO
his questions in both languages, and
writing the German on the black
board with fair proficiency.
