OUR SCHOOLS.
Revision of the Course OF study.


At the next meeting of the Board of Public
Education the report of the Committee on
Revision Of the Course of Study in our
Public Schools will be presented for adoption.
The report on the revised course of study
covers the same branches which were en-
braced in the former course, but with more
detailed and discriminating adjustment Of the
different studies to suit the age and capacity
of pupils and their circumstances in life,
which modify their attendance upon the
schools and lessen their educational opportu-
mites. N
More than one-fourth of the pupils in our
public schools never get beyond the primary
and secondary schools, and a modification of
the course of study was imperatively de-
manded, and has been made, to give them
more practical and available education than
heretofore during the time that they can re-
main in school.
The oppression, verbal mem orizing and
cramming has been relieved by requiring
the descriptive portions of geography to be
used as leading lessons merely, and not
committed to memory, as heretofore-an i'm
provement many weary and heavy-hearted
child will hail with joyful gratitude and
thanks.
No study nor part of study is introduced
until it is needed, and then only so much as
the age of the pupil and the logical develop
uleAt VI INC SuDJoce iequiioo' Dy onio iicals
the education acquired will be rational and
intelligent, healthful and inviting to the
pupil instead of repugnant and discouraging
More explanatory and suggestive teaching
will be required throughout the entire coun-
try, to the greater benefit of pupils and aid
ing of perplexed and DISSATISFIED parents.
Mental arithmetic is made more distinctly
prominent as an essential braach of educa-
tion, too much and too long neglected, but
which is vitality important as an infallible
agency to develop and quicken aud train the
mind, as we'll as for its practical value in the
multiplications and business Transactions Of
daily life, especially in a.large city.
The burden of lessons now imposed upor
pupils has been largely reduced, and at the
same time a better education provided for
and no essential study nor portion of an.
branch omitted.
The notifications proposed have beei
under consideration by the committee TO
several months, and have been subjected t.
the sharpest scrutiny and criticism of com
mittees of our ablest and most experience
teachers, and there is every probability cha
permanent benefits will result from its adoI
tion by the Board of Education.

Death of Judge Kels0.

The Alexandria Democrat of the seventh
instant says:
We are panied to learn of the death, on
Sunday last, of John KelsO, Esu., Judge of
the Parish Court. Judge Kelso was son
of the late George Y. Kelso, Esq, one of
our most respected citizens, and was, at the
time Of his death, in the fortieth year of his
age. His education was most carefully con-
Quoted, under the direction of his relatives
in Baltimore, in some of the best schools in
that city, and was subsequently completed
at Dickerson College, Pennsylvania, and
Princeton College, New Jersey. He studied
law for a short time with the late Judge
Barlow, but was never admitted to the bar.
During the late war Judge KelsO went
off to the army as captain of one of the first
companies raised in Rapides, and was in
service, with short interval, during the
whole contest. In 1865 he was elected to
the Senate of Louisiana from the parishes of
Rapides and Avoyelles, and served until
suspended by the reconstructed govern
ment Of the State. On the death of Judge
Barlow last spring, he was appointed by
the Governor, Parish Judge of the parish of
Rapides, and was reelected at the late
election, being the only successful candi-
