NORMAL SCHOOLS.

The first normal school was found
ed in 1851 by the Able De la Sale, canon
of the cathedral at Rems, and sixteen
years later teachers class was opened in
connection with an orphan school at Halle,
the pupl-teachers receiving two years.
training under the head-master, August
Hermann Francke, under whom the sys-
tenn developed surprisingly, and soon re-
ceived the invaluable support of Fr ederick
the Great. Other normal schools were
opened in Hanover, Augustria, Switzer-
land, France, Holland, Belgium, and,
aoout forty years ago, in Great Britain,
whence they have extended into nearly
every civilized country. The aim of the
schools is we'll expressed in the follow
ing extract of the Prussian law: "The
directors OF teachers seminaries shall
rather seek to conduct the pupil-teachers
by their own experience TO simple aud
clear principles, than to give them theories
for their guidance; and with this end in
view, primary schools shall be joined TO
all teachers seminaries, where the pupil
teacher may be practiced in the art Of
teaching, There are now about $50 nor
NAL schools in Europe, the British col
onies, and British India, the latter having
104.
Massachusetts was the first State in the
American Union to establish normal
schools, of which there are now 157, with
over $4,000 pupils and over 1000 instruct
ors, Ohio and Pennsylvania each having
twelve schools, while New York State has
nine, Illinois and Missouri eight each, and
Massachusetts seven. The largest num-
ber OF pupils is in New York, however,
where there are 4.158. The necessity of
such schools need no other enforce
ment than few statistics relating
to education in the United States.
Nearly 9.000 600 scholars are enrolled
in the public schools. Nearly 5,00O.-
900 are in attendance daily, and about
23l 900 teachers are employed, including
133, 900 women. The amount expended
annually upon this vast scheme. which
seems almost fabulous, is about $S2, ,0O0,-
900, and the Imagination is carried away
by the tremendous suggestiveness OF the
figures Wm. II. Rideing, in Haypers
Magazine for april.
