Is SO as by preceding amendment) to be
struck out, NAMELY: THE School Director is
the immediate Superior of the entire teach
ing staff, and to him from the staff of both
the communal and the private schools care
to be sent & c.), instead of which is added
4'To the School Director" care to be sent &c).
The meaning of the amendment, If we
understand it Alright, is to take. out the pri-
vate school te 4chers from the same category
as the public school teachers in their reIP-
ton to the School Director, who is unques-
ticnably the Immediate superior OF the lat
ter, though not in the same sense OF the
former.
It may not he generally known that the
School Director has for some time been gra-
dually making improvements in the scho rls,
such as the separation of the classes IN the
Country Schools by partitions, and the IN
PRODUCTION OF single desks in the Town
Schools. Except that the former change
perhaps makes the rooms warmer, these
changes are good. and we hope to see many
others after the Draft of the new School
Ordinance shall have become law.

ST. GROIN STATION.

London, Sept. 23rd-A general strike up
0n the Irish railways has been ordered, and
a general British strike is tire ltened if ne
cessary. The railway companies are az
gressive rather than conclliatory, aud have
locked out other classes of workers than the
strikers, and ordered the strikers to return
their uniforms aud totally sever relations.
The timber merchants, whose boycott
caused the trouble, are importing strike
breakers, alleging that labour is plentiful if
lawful protection be afforded them. The
export trade has ceased, and the fool sup
ply is short.

In Paris it is regarded as certain that Mo-
rocco's sovereignty and independence are
doomed, despite assertions to the contrary,
and the guarantee of the Algeciras agree
ment The negotiations contemplate a
French protectorate to be arranged with
Germany, because she is the only nation OBJ
ipcting, not because her right to object is
greater than any other signatory, and the
remaining question will be merely what is the
price for closing Germany eyes.
The German newspapers call attention to
the disturbances in other security markets
ss a proof that nothing unusual is happen
ing in Berlin, rather the contrary, since Ger
many suffers DO Inconvenience, and has re-
paid eight hundred million marks of foreign
credits this year. The approaching settle
ment will perhaps be rather more difficult
than usual, but no grave disturbance is ex-
pected.
