OUR PUBLIC SCHooLs.-W spent
half day each in the High School and First
Ward Grammar Department. last wee K, each
of which we found conducted in a manner
conimendable to both teachers and pupils
The High School, under the immediate SUI
peryision OF Mr. E. c. FOSTER, is, we have
no hesitation in saying, without an equal in
the country. The department of the pupils,
the perfect order in conducting the exerci-
ses, and the promptness on the part of the
pupils IN their recitations all gave evidence
of the perfection to which this branch of our
public schools has teen brought by Mr.. Eos
TER since it has been under his control. Too
much praise cannot be bestowed upon this
branch Of our public schools, and our advice
to our citizens, generally, is, to visit it and
see for yourselves what can be accomplished
by a competent teacher in a short time.
The Grammar Department taught By Mr..
CUsnuSs, IS also commended to the attention
of parents. Mr.. CU5BIISs IS certainly one of
the most interchangeable workers in school
that we have seen. Those of his scholars
who have desire TO learn, cannot fail to be
benefited by his industry Some of the
"hard cases" among the boys of the city, are
In this department, and the teacher has
enough to do to keep order, but the efforts
on his part are not wanting, and We expect
ere the close Of the term, to be able to say
that the Grammar Department in the lst
Ward school is striving to excel even the
High school in department. and scholarship.
We have been handed the following with
regard to the ID Ward Schools, which have
been in successful operation fer the past two
weeks: There are four teachers and four
grades corresponding with the four lower
grades of the LIST Ward schools The teach
ers are: VIM II. PEcE, Principal and teach
er Of Grammar Department; JAMES Brown,
teacher of II intermediate; Mas. E. A
ROWE, teacher of Ist Intermediate, and
Mss " Z. McILHoy, teacher Of Primary
Department. There are in attendance two
hundred and sixty-nine scholars, one hundred
of which are in the Primary Department; by
far too many for one teacher. The depart
ments are all crowded, and the building is
not large enough to accommodate even the
four lower grades Of scholars who reside in
the lower Ward.

AMUsENENTs.-The Show at Len.
ahans' Hall on Thursday evening, called to-
gether but a small audience. The gvmnas-
tie exercises were very creditabIe, and ez-
hibited considerable skill in the perform
anccs. The Dramatic portion of the perform
ance was decidedly democratic.
The Exhibition at the Good Templars
Hall on Friday and Saturday evenings, were
well attended and gave general satisfaction,
The Sacred Drama-Daniel in the den of
Lions-was well performed; indeed it could
hardly have been bettered by actors of even
greater experience. The rehearsal OF the
Poem entitled The Polish Boy" by Mr..
CHAs. Evans, and "Peter and Thisbe," by
F. c. Foster, though quite different in char
aeter, were each we'll delivered and well re
ceiyed br the audience. The Exhibitions
as whole We're quite equal to any that have
been given in this place for the season.
