SUNSHINE AND SHADOW IN New
York. This new publication by
Matthew Hale Smith {''Burleigh') is
now being sold by subscription, and
will find its way into the hands of ey-
cry one who takes any interest in the
inner life of the great city. The work
comprises ninety-two sketches of rep
resentatiye men and notable places and
things in New York, with dozen IL
lustrations. The sketches are written
in faultless style, and graphically por-
tray the bright and the dark side of
life IN the great metropolis. The per-
sonal sketches are very readable. They
are not of fulsome character on the
contrary, some are not very compliment
tary, but still, very interesting. High
and low, in all their varied phases, are
represented without any attempt at ex-
aggeration. Altogether the contents
are very interesting, and the book hand
somely gotten up.

The Teachers Institute at CarwersvilIe-
Belgium Education.

To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL
| hope you will permit me to make few re.
marks on the above mentioned subjects, in
your next issue. Teachers Institutes can
be very useful, but beg leave, most respect
fully to protest against the unjust. unconsti-
tutional, and anti biblical practice # con
Quoting these literary exercises The report
says, The Institute opened with prayer by
Prof. Shoemaker," or with religious exer-
cises by Rev's Hayes, or Gray" Is this
religious liberty ?-as if all the members had
but one creed. or none at all. Catholics
must be hypoeritss if they join in any other
worship but their own and If they do not
attend the Institutes, the first resolution ad-
monishes School Directors not to employ
persons who do not attend the Institutes,
and if conducted legally without prayer, or
bible readingl the advice would be eminently
proper and just. As at present, the Catho-
lie must lie inconsistent if he participates in
the Institutes exercises. and if he does not
he is, at least, unfairly deprived of many
good opportunities of acquiring useful
knowledge. This is an unpleasant diIem-
ma. Why cannot the parties concerned do
their praying at home and in their meeting
houses? Why obtrude on others? Our
Lord forced no one. Many teachers in
Common schools and Institutes do the very
reverse, and imagine they are pious when,
in fact, they are disobeying the Constitu-
,ion and plain command of their own bible
The County Superintendent, or the divinity
portion of the Institute, should explain this
anamoly-conductin TEACHERS Institutes
unconstitutionally.
As to education in Belgium, the short ex-
tract is very offensive to Catholics, because
it asserts an ott-refuted SANDER, that the
Catholic ci urch hates learning Belgium" "
says the writer, is in urgent need OF school
masters" &c. 'Roulers, 10 schooling
whatever, &c, and the reason assigned
for these sweeping charges is this: The
schools Of Belgium are still ii the hands of
the priests. or course, Catholic priests
are meant, for, in reality, no other minis
ters are priests. The inference then is
plain, that til. Catholic church is opposed
TO education This charge cannot be suS
tanned If you, Mr.. Editor allow, | will
prove, aad from eminent Protestant author
ity, too that Catholic countries are as well
educated as non Catholic ones. If you
think the extract correct, hope you will
have the kindness 10 cite vouchers. for Its
figures | fear, may be as fictitious as is
facts. am, ever, truly yours,
