 llic progress of the Scholars is gcncraly gooil, their capacity mid he- 
 liavioiir excellent. Several instances occurrcil wheie ehihlrcn fronj four to 
 eight years of age who had been only about eight months or a year at School, 
 rcail fluently, wrote a (air iiand, and' knew the lour (ir«t Rules of Arithmetic. 
 Some persons upwards i^f twenty >( ars of age were found at School, one of whom 
 had liarnod to read anil write, ami cypher in three months. 
 
 The Visitor found one or more'good 'I'eachers in each Parish where Sehools 
 arc established. The majority of them arc (pndified to teach lUading, Writing 
 and tlie first Rules of Arithmetic, in the language of the majority of the Inhabi- 
 tants. In some Schools Ivnglish was taught by Native Canadians, and the pro- 
 gress of the cinldren, considermg that they do not uiulerstaud that language and 
 have no opportunity of hearitig it spoken, was admirable. 
 
 Teachers : — 
 
 The character .nnd conduct of most of the Masters and Mistresses were found 
 to be exami)lary. The degree of instruction possessed by many of them was 
 small ; still fi-om their habits ofortler, regularity, great attention and ablf manage- 
 tticnt of the children, the S( liol irs wcri; making gO(<d progress. 'I'his was pecu- 
 liarly diseernablc in the female Teachers, who seem to have greater ability in 
 managing youth of a suitable age for Id, nientaiy Mdiication, to wit : from tour 
 to eight, or nine years old. Many of the fL-male Teachers besiiles, have had tin; 
 bcncrit directly o( indirectly of the excellent system of I'emale Kdiicatioii which 
 has long prevailed in the I rsiilines" Nunneries, and in the Schools of the Ladies 
 of the C:ongiegation of Notre. Dame, at Montreal, who have I5ranches of their 
 Establishment, in several of the most populous p iris throiighoiit the IVovince. 
 
 C(-nsiileriiig the general good conduct of the Teachers, and the ])iogress 
 which the Seliolars are making, the Visitur has to recommend the suspension or 
 discontinuance of but a small proportion of 'I'each rs. Some of them i)ecaiisc 
 they were too near to other Schools with Teachers better (|ualilied, and others 
 for irregularities. Of the latter, most of them are persons who do not belong 
 to the parts of the country where they keep School, and are consequently witli- 
 out that powerfiil coiitronl which is exercised b} the relations, and the public 
 opinion of the place in maintaining a good character. 
 
 Recommended to be suspended or discontinued : —

 Several Teachers, where more th m one li\es in the same District, will have 
 to remove to other Districts ; ami the \isitor has thought it prudeut where there 
 was no I articular ground for preference to leave the decision as to which of them 
 should remove, to the Trustees.

 School Hours and Uegulations: — 
 
 Tho Visitor found very little regularity in the School Hour' established 
 throiighont the extent of his visit, ainl very lew written Uegulations for the 
 management of the Sclinols established by the Trustees. It was purticiilarly 
 recommjiideil to the Tea hers to b- punctual themselves as to the iioiirs Hxed, 
 and to re(|uire punctuality on the part (,f the Scholars on pain of expulsion, 
 alter several notices to the parents. It was also recommended under the same 
 penalty and forma ii. 8, to exact previous notice (fall intended absences, or 
 the transmission of notice by the parents to the Master as soon after as practi* 
 cable, niid that the Teacher, on such notices not being given, should notify 
 the parents of the absence of tho Scholar as speedily as possible j these pre- 
 cautions being absolutely necessary, that the child may not be exposed to the 
 temptaiiun (d lying to the Master or their parents in cases of unauthorized 
 absence It was also particularly enjoined on tho Teachers to give regular 
 public notice of the entry of the School by ringing a Bi 11 or otherwise. The 
 School Hours the most generally prevalent, are from nine in the morning till 
 noon, and from two to live, which is probably sullicient.
