that can be done is to say whether OF
not given blood belong, or not, to the
class mammalia. No one can absolutely
be sure that q specimen did or did not
belong to q human being. "The crystal
of the dogs blood cannot be distin-
guished from the crystal of the human
blood" This opinion is strengthened
by the Investigations of several eminent
Psychologists. Guy. Casper, and others
have arrived at and published similar
conclusions. And yet when we recollect
the refined and delicate instruments
now in use, and the wonderful progress
made of late in the various walks of
chemical and pathological analysis, it is
hard to believe that this inability to dis
criminate between the blood of men and
that of beasts can long continue to be
other than temporary. So long as the
opinions of experts is SO evenly bal
anced as in the trial we cite, it is clear
that no human life can either be taken
or expiated by the law when proof rests
in any important degree on the delicate
point at issue. The discoverer of de-
monstrable process whereby to establish
this distinction will confer benefit on
science and an additional safeguard on
society.-N. T. Times.

How Schoolmasters are Made in Ger.
MANY,

How Scho0lmasters are Made in Ger.
many.
We will endeavor to indicate the ca
reer cf an intelligent village lad who
having, at the age of fourteen, compile
ted his school course, resolves to become
a schoolmaster. If in Saxony or Silesia,
he enters training-school called Prose
mindr, because preparatory to the semi
nary or normal school if in Prussia, he
enters the house of private tutor, pro-
badly the local schoolmaster or clergy
man. AT the age of eighteen he pro-
ceeds to the seminary. where he has to
spend three years; the first and second
to be devoted, according to an elaborate
scheme, to all the subjects he will here
after have to teach the third to be
spent in teaching, under the supervision
of the director of the seminary, in the
practicing school," which is simply the
nearest primary school. While in the
seminary, he is subjected to stringent
discipline. He makes his own bed and
cleans his own room he pays for his
board and lodging-the former being OF
very homely description, and valued
at eightpence or ninepence g day-and
provides his own bread. At the end of
the third year he presents himself for his
first examination, which is conducted by
the authorities of the college, under the
superintendent of the school councillor.
This examination embraces religion,
language, arithmetic, writing, drawing,
and singing, and is partly oral and
partly on paper. The performances of
the candidates are estimated with great
precision, and a certificate is given to all

The teacher is now taken charge of by
the departmental councillor, who ap-
points him to vacancy in his district.
He holds, however, only the position
and title of provisional teacher, the full
status and rank of schoolmaster being
withheld until he has passed a second
examination, held three years after the
first. This examination is rather an in
vestigation into character and conduct
than into attainments. When this last
ordeal has been passed, the teacher takes
the oath Of allegiance, and receives a
definite appointment as master of q
school.-iSajnt PaurS.
