STATE INSTITUTE"

1t was my pleasure to visit the State

of the exercises, as well as listen to
the first lecture on pedagogics, delivered

details and give an outline of their
methods of teaching, or to attempt to
recapitulate Miss Somerville's lecture.
would require more time than | can
spare just now, and more space than
you can allow in this issue. Suffice it
to say for the present that the object
of the Institute is to train teachers in
the best methods of imparting what
they already know in most success
full manner to those placed under their
charge. The sytem of "crGHmiRg"
and "beGtiRg' into children an educa-
tion should not be tolerated by any
committee. An opportunity is here
presented for all who will avail them
selves to learn how to draw out the
embryo of the mind, and lay the foun-
dation of strong and weil-balanced
man or woman. If there is any one
thing that the average teacher of this
State is wanting in more than another,
it is want of system, some defined
plan, method by which he can make
the school room both instructive and
attractive to the pupils. These teach
ers conducting the Institute have pol
ished educations, and are well versed
in all the modern methods, and are
doing their work well. We all should
encourage them in their work by our
presence, which would prove to be
pleasant. and instructive to all who
would do so. Rev. DR.. Burkhead,
Prof. Neal, Postmaster Manix and
many others we're there duling my
