Lords supper. The great house was full. All

The Primary Schools Of Paris.

For brief period after tho late war,
French writers seemed not averse to re-
pcaung that their country had been con-
quered by the German schoolmaster rather
thnn the German soldier. or late, how
ever, they have freely recognized that
for nation claiming 10 present the model
OF consummate civilization, such an
apology involves q deplorable confession.
II would be strange indeed if the sagacOus
md upright men who have risen to pow or
under republican Government did not
feel acut"ly the significance OF the CON
trast between the treasures lavi.hod by
tho empire upon theatres palaces, or tri-
umphal arches, aud the nggard sums
doled out 10 those primary academic nsn
buttons which supply the sole education of
the majority. A notable change in thi.
regard has been wrought by the last three
years. The municipality OF Paris has
shown itself especially Jealous for educa
tlonal reform, aud we find IN late repor

mentary instruction, proof Of steady and
creditable progress.
The establishments for preliminary tut

distributed in two categories-the so-called

two-thirds Of tho entire number are

learned, are home seekers from the des-
plated fields Of Dakota. Kansas and Ne
