limited opportunities to all to obtain an
education readily and under the most

good degree Of rivalry may be beneficial
in, this es in all branches, the -systsn
adopted by too many Of the so-called
colleges, OF fixing low standard as a
requirement. for graduating and receiv-
ing degrees, is likely to prove a serious
injury to our educational cause, and as
such is much to be regretted. The tact
is that every. private institution of learn
ing in the land has dubbed itself a. .'coi-
lege," and now graduatesits pupils, and
confers its degrees, and manufactures
its Masters of Arts and Doctors and
Professors, with rapidity and upon an
educational basis which, from its ex-
ceedingly superficial method, is not only
insufficient but positively dangerous to
our educational interests. The curricu-
lum Of this class of institutions in many
cases is only equal in any particular to
that of the preparatory department. Of
the leading colleges OF the country,
while in the point of thoroughness it is
frequently far below them. Yetenot-
withstanding this they graduate their
pupils as fullfledged collegiates, and
send them out disgrace to the college
and to themselves and a reproach to edu-
cation. The tendency Of the day is too
much TO cultivate the superficial, and the
educational portion OF the community
instead of fay0fing 1T and intoxicating it
into the minds of those intrusted to its
training, should do all within its power
to oppose the system in every particular
as false and dangerous one, beth to
society and country. We would not op-
pose the multiplication of schools or
advocate the lessening of any means
whereby knowledge and education is
made available to all, but we would ad-
vance the standard OF those aspiring
to be colleges until they stand as high as
the highest In the land. Let the pre-
paratory schools be preparatory schools
and the seminaries be, seminaries, but
let them leave to the college, with its
thorough training, the task of completing
the work and preparing the youth OF the
country for the stern wolA of life, and
thus do away with tina; superfciais. stem
which is becoming too widespread in
