T.. much rank i'm sch.or.

Mrs. Darlington, in speaking of a certain
well-known person Of reputed eloquence
says, He isa very fluid man." Now this
exactly expresses what seems to US the
difficulty with many teachers, and one
which it is the tendency of the times to
increase rather than diminish. The true
principle is laid down that a teacher mus,
have life, animation. and power.-that he
is not a mere machine to hear lessons, or
to keep order and the young teacher (and
many that are not young teachers hearing
this, thinks that it must be featuring and
talk that are meant; and 30 he lectures,
and talks, and explains. and is fluid, and
dins. and repeats. and explains, and ex-
hausts himself. and finds that. after all,
his pupils make but little progress; and
then he becomes discouraged. There is
too much talk in our schools, and not
enough thought. To some the teacher is
merely a person!but to turn the crank of a
huge sausage-machine to stuff the gaping
children who are waiting to be filed. OF
course, then the faster he turns and the
more clatter of machinery there is. the
they viii be filed and the job ac-
complished.
We are always mistrustful Of the teacher
whom We end talking much in school.

The Common Schools.

81 believe in colleges and academies,
and select in high schools; but 1 would
rather see all of them perish than to see the
common school perish. 1 would fain have
the common school made so strong and so
good, so large and so luminous, SO full of
the marrow ofgood thing. that they who
dwell in the neighborhood of it,no matter
how rich they may be, can not afford to
send their children anywhere else. Make
that which you do for common people
better than that which can be done oy Sc
lect classes in the community for them
selves. They are doing this in Massa-
ehusetts, and especially in Boston, Make
such provision for the education of the
commonest people that the richest un-
common people will come suppliantly and
ask for their children the privilege of par
ticipating in the advantages ofthe common
schools. Do not destroy the common
school. And keep it Bring
everybody to it. aid let them there learn
each others brotherhood. And thus So
ciety. beginning and passing through the
common school, will form sympathetic
associations which will go on unfolding
afterward, and which will no
more be forgotten by men than the wide
spreading branches oe a tree forget the
roots from which all their magnifcence
draws sustenance."-W. II. Beecher.

The intelligence that the Government

cast reproach and dishonor upon her name

American patriots. England must be
taught the salutary and exemplary lesson
that she cannot interfere in our domestic
difficulties with %impunity. She must be
punished for the remorseless rapacity of
her greed and made to know that she can
not violate international compacts with
out making ample redress for the wrong.

EXAMINATIONS.

Our opinions have been expressed be
fore on this subject. We favor exami
nations when they are tests of scholarship
but under no other consideration. There
is a disposition to make too much display
on such occasions. The object, on the
part of some teachers, is to popularize
education. This is a wrong way of pre-
senting the cause to the people. 1t re-
minds one of the habit some peo-
pie have of dressing up" IN Sundays for
display. These people scarcely have
moral courage to be seen in every day ap-
parel. This according to our way of
looking at the subject betrays great weak
ness.
If the examination does not reflect the
character of school, it is counterfeit. 1t
betrays a weakness that can not be sue
cessfully concealed from the public.
Such examinations do more harm than
good, and the sooner they are abolished
the better for popular education.
When the object of education is display
there is some excu sc for r small school
to close out with a famous examination"
Boys can not be men, girls can not be
women and the teacher, who hopes to show
them off on the stage as such. will never
rank very high as an educator.

See her paid countenance, but a short
time ago the picture of ruddy health, the
envy of the school and the pride of the
household. She always welcomed by her
schoolmates, for her 1.-THE form and pleas
ing disposition carried cheerfulness into
their ranks. Diligent, punctual and ex-
emplary, obedient and graceful at home,
she won the hearts of all. But alas, we
are sorrowed. Those rosy cheeks and
rudy lips are blanched by Consumption.
The voice once SO enchanting in laugh and
song Is feeble. husky and surplanted by a
hollow cough. Let US approach her cough
gently and take her hand. Do not shud-
der because of the feeble and passionless
grasp. The hand once so hearty and
plump is emaciated, and shows bony out
lines, while the cords and tortuous veins
are plainly mapped upon the surface.
The pulse that bounded with repletion,
carrying vigor to the whole system and
and imparting life, beauty. vivacity, health
and strength, is delicate to the touch.
The feeble heart can not propel the thin,
scanty blood with force. Must we lose
her while yet in her teens? Companions
and friends gather around with words of
cheer and consolation, and depart with
moistened eyes and silent steps. Must
we lose her? No there is a relief! We
can stay this destroyer of our happiness,
and not suffer the loss of so bright a gem.
Some thing more is required now than
dietary and hygienic observance, for

force increased. and the heart bounds

ing, her voice is getting clearer, and pleas
ant words are spoken. The strength

her out in the warm sunshine. In a short
she will be able to go without our
aid. a cheerful girl. This delightful
medicine must be Gedblessed. 1t is re-

+ The teachers Of the county ought to
s-ganize an Institute this Summer. The
Schools all close in the course of two
months. There will be some three months
in which the teachers will have time to
devote to the organization of an Institute.
The character Of u school will, in a
great measure, depend upon the efforts of
the teachers. Every opportunity for i'm
provement must be embraced. The
standard of education in many of the
schools is entirely too low. One of the
best means of eleyating the standard is a
county Institute. In this the teachers
have an opportunity of exchanging opin-
ions with each other and learning the
best methods of teaching. There will be
scarcely any expense attached to such an
organization. 1t will only require a little
time which can be employed probably in
the way of self Improvement. Itneed not
detract anything at all from the teachers
recreation.
rs EA-E
The book question which gives teach
ers much trouble every year could be set
tied by them in such an Institute
as We ought to hold this Summer. A
uniform system of School books should be
at once. 1t will save a heavy e1-
pense to the parent and obyiate a difficult
ty that teachers experience every year.

There can be little doubt, we think,
that the greatest present need of the high
er educational interest of the country Is
better preparatory schools. We may
strive as hard as we will to perfect the
curriculum of studies in the colleges and
universities, and expend our energies in
forming and furnishing means for
postgraduate courses of study. but the
effort is unavoidably more or less abortive
from the failure at the other end of the
course. 1t may seem strange, but we
have no doubt that at least one half of the
first year in college is occupied In bringing
the students who came from different
preparatory schools up to a common level.
Let the entrance examinations be as strict
as they may. they cannot obtain the same
culture in all who come. And there
seems to be no remedy for this, until the
preparatory schools receive more attention
than they now get. We are glad to see
that the subject is being agitated in GER
tain quarters. DIR. Reid, President of the
State University of Missouri, has proposed
the following plan for bringing the Uni
versity into closer relation to the public
school of the State : list. The University
should take up the Studies exactly where
the high schools of the State leave off and
to this end there should be laid down by
law a course of study for all high schools
in the State, which they should be required
to follow. I'd. There should be some
change in the way of appointing State
students to the University. Sd. A system
of public Libraries in all parts of the State
should be adopted and kept up for the
use of every country school," Whether
this plan or some other is followed, there
can be little doubt that the subject of the
dependence of the higher educational in
situations, upon the lower schools, and the
between them should be tho
agitated, and an improvement
brought about. While advanced study
and higher education is receiving so much
attention, let not that which makes the
after possible. be entirely neglected.

AN DECISION.

At last we have a decision from tho
Supreme Court of the United States in
refercace to Amnesty and Pardon. Pres
ident Johnson's Proclamation of July
4th. 1868, comforting the same upon the
participants in the rebellion and admit
ting them to all political rights, such as
voting and holding Office, is sustained.
This decision will set at rest forever a
subject which has been a prolific source of
proftless and angry agitation. obstructing
the restoration of peaceful and fraternal
relations between the different sections of
the country. We feel ture that an en-
slightcned and liberal public sentiment
Wiz appreciate this important judicial de-
fiTersnce. The time has certainly past
for discriminating and unequal measures.
The commercial and social interests of
the country demand peace, quietude and
fraternization. The Union can never be
ceppieteiy restored and rebuilt without a
pacific policy ignoring the feuds and acri-
monies Of the past. This has long been
apparent, and nov that none are excluded
from the enjoyment of political rights we
confidently expect that all feelings of I'll
will will be allayed and thu nation will
move steadfastly along on the track of its
magnificent destiny. If the counsels of
designing and ambitious men who have
thrived on popular passions are UNDECIDED,
We have already entered upon a bright
sr.and more glorious era than we ever be-
fore enjoyed, and no obstacle can stand in
the gay Of the national progress,
