Our dcd Schools.

With the beginning Of the present
school year a new system was inaugurated
relative to the public schools ofour village.
The districts having been consolidated,
the graded system was adopted, so far AS
our convcniences would permit. There
are at present five teachers in charge of
the schools, and we are informed that the
whole number of pupils IN attendance the
present term, is nearly two hundred and
fifty. The Primary, Common English,
and higher branches arc taught, and tie
aim Of the Board of Prudential Committee
has been so to arrange the classes as to
offer the Rest possible advantages TO pu-
pills in every stage of progress from the
elementary TO the higher branches. Last
Thursday and Friday we had the pleasure
of attending the public examination which
closed the winter and the present school
pear. So far as we are abe to JudSe,a ant
we listened and observed ~attentlvely, ihf
exercises were creditable both TO teacher
and scholars. As time would allow, the
studies that had been pursued during tht
term were reviewed at least. sltiicien'
to show whether the pupils had been dill
ligent and attentive 10 their studies. -
Essays, music, and other miscellaneou,
exercises varied the mcnotcny of constant
recitatiuns, and exhibited the accomplish
ments of the misses who contributed IL
the entertainment.
The exercises throughout were well
attended, especially during Friday after
noon. Nearly all the available space il
the Court Room where the examination!
were held, WAS occupied. After the re
Citations were closed, prizes were distrib
uted to those scholars who had received
the highest marks in their classes, S3ml
