TRYING A CURIOUS PLAN.
Teaching Modern Science In the Oldest of
Oriental Languages.

The Punjab province Of India has
been for some years the scene of an in
tcrcsting acadcmical experiment, that
Of communicating western science, phi
lOsophy and literature to the people
through their mother tongue, and to the
educated through their learned Ian
guagCs, and not in an English dress, as
elsewhere.
SiXty-three years ago Macaulay and
| Duff destroyed the very different PERM
cioIs system Of bribing native students
of Sauskrit, Persian and Arabic to read
their sacred books. Gradually the
learned classes came to be left out of
our state system Of public instruction,
with evil results. Sir Donald Mcleod
accordingly devised and Sir Charles
AitchiSon carried out the plan of at
oncc attracting these, i'll the Puniab at
least, by oriental titles and degrees,
and of examining all students for the
ordinary university degrees through the
medium of their w v%ernacular. The
Punjab university and it's oriental col
lege We're founded at Lahore for these
two ends.
The latest report Of the Edinburgh
graduate, Mr.. J. Sine, Nj. A., who is
director of the department, is not very
favorable to the success of the double
experiment, now some IS years old. He
declares that ''thc prospects of advanced
education through the medium of the
vernacular are not imprOving' at least,
and Sir Dennis Fitzpatrick, the lieuten,
ant governor, has ordered Il special re-
port on the subject. In the Orienta.
