It fftte Sctioolft* UPPER CANADA. The earliest references toeducntion in Upper Oanada are contained in the instructidns of Governor Gencrnl Lord Dorchester to the Surveyor General, in 1*789, — directing him to set npnrt two lots in each township for the endowment of schools ; and in the con ospondonce betM'een the Imperial and Provincial Governments in 1796-8. Nothing, I owever, was done nutil 1798, when lands were set apart by the thrown for the support of a University and Grammar Schools. In 1807, the Parliament of Upper Canada passed its ^rst enactment rtli ting to education, by establishing Grammar Schools in each District of the Province. In 1810, provision was made for the esta- blishment of Common Schools, by an annual grant of £t;,UOO, and by authorizing the inhabitants of any town, village or township "to meet tog".ther and make arnmgemeutsforConimor) Scliools therein, and to choose three fit and discreet persons as their trusfoen, to examine into the moral character and capacity of any person willing to become a teacher, and appoint him if approved." The trustees were also authorized to select text- books, subject to a local Board of Education, to which thoy were also required to report. In 1 820, this annu.il Common School grant was lessened to £2,500, although (hiring the previous year. Parliament had made provi- sion for an additional Gnimniar School in each District, and for ere appointed by their resprctire Board* of School Trustee!, 18 TUK gcnOOLB. !i equal amount yrauled from the Public Library Fund. Tlio Manner of CBtnblisliiiig tlu!rtt) libraries is as follows : The Dupartincut issues u catalogue containing, at th« present time, nay OOUO volumes.which have been sanctioned by the Council of Public Instruction. A local school, or municipal, corpora- tion makeii au appropriation, and transmits the money, and a list of such books as it selectH, to the Department. One hundred percent, is then added to the amount, and books to the value of the two sums are forwarded from the Library Depository of the Department. A similar system is adopted in supplying the Grammar and Commou Schools with maps, printn, globes, and other school and philosophical apparatus. The Department also publishes a Jounuil of Education, which is sent gratuitously to each school corporation and officer, and in which general educational information, and papers on teaching are published, as well as the official circulars and notices of the Department. At the head of the whole system there are two autharities — one legisla- tive and the other executive — both appointed by the Crown. The first is the Council of Public Instruction, by which the Normal School is managed, the regulations (or the government of Grammar and Common Schools and Public Libraries are prescribed, and school and library books sckcted and authorized. The other authority is the Chief Superintendent of Education, who, as his title indicates, is the chief executive officer of the syetcm, and as s'jch is a member, ex officio, of the Provincial Council, and has a voice in its decisions regarding the principles of the system he udininisters. Questions arising under the Grammar and Common School laws, and not otherwise provided for, are decided, and all grants paid, by him ; all financial and other reports from Local Superintendents, Grammar and Common School Bmrds, and School Treasurers, are made to him, and a summary of them i^ given in his Provincial Annual Report to ihe Governor General and Legislature, (a) Such id a sk.-'tch of the eduoational system now ealablished and warmly supported by the people of Upper Canada, and which, with its 3500 Com- mon Schools and 70 Grammar Schools, is daily adding to the moral and intellectual wealth of the country. Interwoven alike with the institutions of the country and symp;ithies and heart of the people, it has attained a power not easily to be shaken, .uul lias developed an intelligence and thought, which, aided by the enricliiiif.' wealth of a liberal culture, will yet make Canadian intellects no mean contributors to the science, the literature, the freedom and the civilization of the woild. (a) Tho grpnter part of this sketch is condcniipd from a paper on the Hitlory, Stale and Proiptctt qf Popular EJucalion in Vp}>er Canada, read befori- the American Association for the Advancement of Education, in August, IB59, by J.George Hodgins, Esq., M.

The establishment of a Normal School, as necessary to the completion of a National System of Education, engaged public attention in 1886; but nothing was accomplished until after the appointment, in 1844, of the Rer. Egerton Byerson, D.D., as Chief Superintendent of Education. In Feb* ruary, 1846, Dr. Ryerson, after investigating the systems of education in Europe and the United States, submitted to Oovernment his Report on a System of Elementary Education for Upper Canada, and a draft of a School bill, which obtained the assent of Parliament, 23rd May, 1846. On the Ist July following, the Board of Education (now Council of Public Instruction) was appointed for the purpose of establishing the Normal and Model Schools, and selecting text-books for the Common Schools of the Province. By agreement with the Government, the old Government House of Upper 18 THE flCIIOOl.B. Canada, at Toronto, was granted for the use of tho Normal School, until the erection of proper buihiingii; and after the completion of the neceRsary arrangements, the Institution was formally o])cned for the admission of students on the Ist November, 1847. Tho following year the Model School was opened. On the removal of the seat of goreraoiont from Montreal to Toronto, in 1849, mcasurca were adopted for the immediate erection of buiUiings for tho Institution. Accordingly the Legislature, in 1860, appropriated £15,000 for the purchase of a site and erection of buildings, and an addi> tional £10,000 in 1862— making in all £26,000. The corner stone of the new buildings was laid on tho 2nd July, 1851, by His Excellency the Earl of Elgin and Kincardine, and the premises were formally opened on the 24th November, 1852. The Institution consists of a Normal School and two Model Schools ; the former, the school of instruction by lecture ; the latter the school of in* struction by practice. The students in tho former are young persons whose ages vary from 16 or 18 to 30, and over, while the pupils in the latter are children between the ages of 6 and 16 years. In the Normal School, the teachers. in-training are instructed in the principles of education and the best methods of communicating knowledge to the youth placed under their care— are " taught how to teach ;" and in the Model Schools they are taught to give practical effect to those instructions, under the direction of teachers previously trained in the Normal School. The Model Schools are designed, by both the system of instruction pursued and general ar- rangement, to be the model for all the public schools of the Province. 1847.

The University of Toronto wa» ostiiblished by Royal Cliarter, bearing date tiio 15th of March, 1827, in the serenth year of the reign of his late Majesty King George IV., under the title of "King's College," The following yi'ttr, Srd January, 1828, it was endowed, by Patent, with a grant of the lands which had been set apart for that purpose by the Crown, in 17U8, ut the re(]ucHt of the Pariiument of Upper Canada. In 1843, the flrrangoments having been completed for opening the University, the formal inauguration of the Institution, and first admission of students, took place on the 8lh of June in that year, and its first Convocation on the 14th December, 1844. Various acts rel 'ting to the University hnve been passed by the Pro- vincial Parliaments. In 1820, during the fifth session of the seventh Parliamont of Upper Canada, an Act wns passed (60 George III. cap. 2) for increasing the Parliamentary repre entution, which provided — "That whenever iin University shall be organized, and in operation as a seminary of learning, in this Province, and in conformity with the rules und statutes of similar institutions in Great Britain, it shall and may be lawful (or the Governor, Lieutenait Governor, or person administering the government of the Province f n ile time being, to declare by proclamation the tract of land appendiDit to ^'ich University, and whereupon the same is situated, to be a town or township, by such name as to him shall seem meet, and that such town or township so constituted shall bo represented by one member: Provided always, that no person shall be permitted to vote at any such election for a member to represent the said University in Parliament, who, besides the qualification now by law required, shall not also be entitled to vote ip the Convocation of the said University."(a) The original charter being restrictive in its character, modifications were sought for ; and, in 1837, the Legislature of Upper Canada amended its provisions by the Act 7 William IV. cap. 16.

Ltrrary. — The Library contains a small but valuable collection of works in the different departments of science and literature. The number of volumes exctiedd 7000 ; and the selection has been made muinly with a view to thoir practical utility, as books of reference. The Library is open every day, except Sundays, from ten to three o'clock. Museum. — The Museum, which previous to 1853 was on a very limited scale, has, since that time, rapidly increased, and already contains enough to render it highly interestiui; and attractive. It affords the means of usefully illustrating the lectures on the various departments of Zoology and Botany ; and at the same time offers inducements and assistance for the further study of Natural History, by exhibiting nn extensive series of objects, and esjiecialiy of the productions of Canada. Several fine speci- mens of animals have lately been added to the collection. The birds number about 760, which are arranged, so far as space will admit. Addi- tions are being made in the departments of Icthyology, Entomology, and Conchology, which will greatly increase the interest of the collection ; and several packages of plants have been obtained from England and the Southern United States, — especially a fine collection of American mosses.

The existence of this College is due to the efforts of the Conference of the Wesleyan Methodist Church. During the years 1828-'.), plans were devised for the establisLment of an Academy for the superior education of both sexes ; and in 1830, the Conference appointed a committee to collect subscriptions, and select a site for the proposed institution, which they then named Upper Canada Academy. After offers of donations of land and money from various parts of the Province, the town of Oobourg was selected, for the liberality of its offer and central position. Upwards of £7000 were collected ; and in the autumn of 1832 the buildings were commenced. Various circumstances, however, delayed the completion of the work; and it was not until the 18th June, 1836, that the Aca- demy was formally opened. On the 12th October of the same year, a Royal Charter of incorporation was obtained ; aud also, about the same time, a public grant, principally through the exertions of the chief originator of the College, the Rov. Egerton Ryerson, D.D. In 1841, ap- plication was made to Parliament for an alteration in the constitution of the Academy and its establishment as a University ; and accordingly the Act 4 «fe 5 Victoria, cap. 37, was passed, conf<;rririg the usual Univer- sity powers upon its authorities, under the title of " Victoria College, at Cobourg."(a) Under this Act, the management of the College is en- trusted to a Board, composed of nine Trustees and five Visitors, appointed by the Conference ; and to a Senate, composed of the President, Professors, Members of the Board, and certain officers of Government, for the time being. The Faculty of Arts has been in operation since 1842. In 1854, an arrangement was made with the Toronto School of Medicine, by which that institution became the Faculty of Medicine of the University. The preparatory department sustains to the College the relation of a Grain- mar or High School, and is designed to qualify pupils for tlie Univer- sity course, or to give them au elementary training in any or all of the following subjects, viz.: — Arithmetic, geography, history, English gram- mar, reading, penmanship, book-keeping, algebra, natural philosophy, (a) In 1850, this Act waa amended by IS ii U Victoria, cap. IIS, authorising the removal of t|>« ColUgt to Toronto.

He died in 1813, leaving a will by which he [te- queathed in trust to the Rnijal Innlitulion/or the Advancement of Learn- in(j, his Kstate of "Burnsi.le," consistiiif; of some forty-six acres of lund in the immediate m-ijjhbourhood of the City of Montreal, and now within its limits, and also the sum of £10,000 in money, as a foundation for a Uni- versity. The bequest was accompanied with the condition that the Uni- versity should he erected within ten j-ears from his deuth ; and with a natu- ral desire of associatini^ his memctry with the Institution founded by his liberality, he enjoined that one of the CoIIeji^es should bear his own name of McGill. The Will, however, in so far as the leijacy was concerned, was contested by his residuary Legatees, and an obstinate and protracteil litiga- tion of some sixteen years was interposed between the benevolence of the founder and the benefit which the foundation was designed to confer. At length, however, in 1829, the Estate of Burnside was leeoveved from the residuary Legatees, and in 1835, judgment was rendered against them bj' the Privy Council, for the Legac)' of £10.(K)0, with the interest, amounting to £22,000. '1 he condition of tlve bequest that (he University sliould be erected within ten years had Ix'en previously complied with, by obtaining the grant of a Royal Charter, for that purpo-e, in 1821. The next step towards giving to the University a practical operation, was the (stal lislunent of the Medical Faculty in 1829, which, with the interruption of only two years, has ever since continued in active operation. In JB'J.'i, the Kev. Dr. Bethune was appointed Principal of the University, and after some un- successful efl'oit-t to obtain a change of the very imperfect constitutiou established by the Charter, and the cunsumption of much time from mis- understandings between the Governors of the University under tiiat Char- ter, and the lioi/al IiiHtitution for the Adoancem-ent of Learning, which, held all the funds, it was at length agreed upon, that buildings fur the uses of the University should bt; erected; and accordingly thoK' now stand- ing on the west side of Sheibrooke Street, were commenced 1839. The sum expended upon them was £15 000, and although still in an unfinished state, jet they were sufficiently completed for tlie rccepti-on of Students iu li TO THE »NrVEB8ITlE». M^ 1843. In the lutter year statutes wore frnnn-d for the Govermnrnt of tfte- College, and u Chair of Divinity and two Professorships in the Faculty of Arts were established, and with this addition to the already eslablishec) Faculty of Medicine, the College was forinaify opened on the 7ih of Sep- tember of that year. The Institution thu» started was not suceessful. Its condition at length attracted attention, and in 1850. the Provincial Govern- ment was moved by a nnmber of pubKe spirited gent'einfn to aid in an endeavor to pliiee it on a better footing. As a strong antagonism had always existed between the RoyeU htstitution, and the mnjority of the Gov- ernors of tlie College upon subjects o&sentially afftcting its condnct ant? prosperity, it was deemed advisable as a first step, to re-coB»trnct the for- mer Corporation. New iippointments were therefore matle to the Royal luHtitutiou, of persons selected on the score of their interest in the cause of Education. Of these, several entered upon the duiic>s »f thoir office with aeal and energy, Tliey drew up an elaborate »eport on the comlition of the University, and the course which they thought should be followed for its anuOioration, and their recomioendutions were nmde the basis of all that has since been done. A draft of a new Charter was prepared, which was- finally adopte;er, Second A^jsistant Master. W. Bowman, Third Assistant Master. J. D. Borthwick, Fourth Assistant Master.

The primary objeet of tliis institution was the education of boys who felt an inclination for the priesthood, and such it continued until 1759. After the conquest of this country by the Euf^lisli. a College, which the Jesuits had held at Quebec since Ititfl, havin_f been suppressed, tl.i Directors of this Seminary, in order to meet the wants jind wishes of those boys who were not intended for the priesthood, admitted into their classes all those whose good comluct and talents entitled them to such favor. By this change, the Seminary became a regular College, and had, by successive additions, ac(]uired a high degree of importiince, when it Was erected, by Her Majesty's Royal Cl'.arter, into a University, under the style and name of The Laval Univcrsiti(. By this charter, which boars date December 8th, IS.'SS, no change was efTcet'id in the c<_.ir.titution of the Semimuy itself; but a Council, composed of the Directors of the institution, and the three senior rrofessors of the eeveral Faculties, was empoweretl to possess and enjoy all the privileges granted to the Universities of the United Kingue. tory. cucb try. fHatrictilation anil DfQrfrjs. The Degrees conferred in the Fnculty of Arts are B.A. and M.A. The requisites for the Degree of B.A. are as follows: 1. Every candidate for Bachelorship or Matriculation shall undergo two examinations. The first after his course of rhetoric; the second after hav- ing terminated his course of philosophy. The first examination shall be as follows: Translation of Latin and Greek Authors, Latin Prose or Ve"se, Universal History and Geography, History of Canada, The History and Principles of Literature and Rhetoric, French or English Composition, at the option of the Candidate. The second examination shall be as follows: A Dissertation on Logic; Dissertation on some point of Metaphysics, either general or particular; an Essay on some point of Ethics; Questions on Physics and Chemistry; Pro- blems and Questions on Mathematics and Astronomy ; Questions on Natural History. (The questions on the sciences will not suppose anything more than an elementary knowledge. In arithmetic, algebra, geometry, plane trig- onometry, it will suffice that the candidate possess such a knowledge of them as comports with the present system of teaching these branches of science in colleges.) 82 THE UNIVBBSITIE8. 2. Tliosc candidates who in both tbe examinations shall have been placed in the first class, shall ot)t:iin the degree of B. A. Those belonging 'o the Bccoiid class may attend the courses of the University, hut they shall not be admitted to a higher degree in the different Faculties than that ol Bacliolor, until they have obtained tiie degree of B.A. Those belonging to the third class will obtain no privilege ; it will be however allowed them to pre'-.ent themselvea anew for exaniination.(a) The requisite for the degree of M. A. is a successful attendance on the obligatory courses of Lectures in the Faculty during three years. In the Faculties of Law and Medicine, the degree of Bachelor is obtained only after having satisfactory passed six examinations at the end of the same number of terms. Liccuxe in thi-se Faculties, aud in Divinity, requires four years of successful attendance on all the courses, and written and oral examinations. In order to obtain the degree of B D., it is necessary to pass written and oral examinations upon the several branches taught in the Grand Seminary. No one is admitted to the degree of Doctor in any of the four Faculties unless he has publicly and successfully advocated numerous Theses upon most of the branches of the respective Faculties. The eandiilates are al- lowed to pass this examination, four, three, or t\vo years after having ob- tained the degree of Liccnciate, according to the testimonial which they received at their examination for the License, viz.: satiiffactori/; with dis- tinction ; or with the greatest distinction. <■ Students in Law and Medicine, whose parents are not inhabitants of Quebec, are required to reside in the University boardin;; house. Two rooms for the use of each student are furnished by the Institution, so that they have to provide only their clothes and useful books. Fees. — Lectures: Faculty of Law, £6; Faculty of Medicine, £12. Board for the terms, (Christmas and Easter included,) £32 10s. Board during summer vacation, £6 10s. ; or ,33. per day fur a part oT iLt, vacation. COLLEGIATB DEPAHTMENT. This department is the Seminary as it was till 1852, and is under the control of a board composed of a Superior and at least four Directors. It is divided into two parts called the Grand and the Minor Sonijiari/. The Grand Seminary comprises the classes of Dogmatic and Moral The- ology, Holy Scripture, Ecclesiastical History, and other branches necessary for the discharge of the clerical functions. The course of studies embraces three years at least. No one is admitted to it unless he has followed a complete course of Philosophy and Litera- ture. The students are all boarders iuid wear the clerical costume. They pay £20 cy. for board, but the instruction is gratuitous. A library of 1,700 books is at their disposal. The Minor Seminary comprises nine classes, of which two are in tbe course of Philosophy, and seven in that of Literature. In order to be admittad as a student into the Minor Seminary, it is neces- sary to read the maternal tongue (French or English) very correctly, write pretty well, and have some knowledge of the grammar.

In Upper Canada, the Profession of tlie Law is divided into two branched — each subject to its own peculiar regulations, and, to a certsiiu extent, independent of the other, — though generally the one person prac- tises in both. (a) They are : barrister a, or persons authorised to "plead at tho bar" of the Courts of Law or Equity, and to take upon them the advi- sing and defence of clients, — and from whom all Judges, Queen's Counsel, and Attorneys and Solicitors General are selected; and Attornei/s and Solicitors, or persons authorised tc " appear in the Courts," in the place and on behalf of others, to prosecute and defend actions on the retainer of olieuta. The only distinction between these two latter is, that "Attorney " is the title adopted in the Courts of Common Law, and "Solicitor" the title adopted in the Courts of Equity. This branch of the profession may be aaid tohavo taken its rise about 1285, for, until the statute 13 Edward I. cap. 10,(6) suitors could not appear in Court by Attorney without the Sove- reign's special warrant, but were compelled to appear in person, — as ia still the practice in criminal cases. Formerly, in England, the members of both branches were admitted to practise by the Jud^^es of the Courts ; but, smce the Commonwealth, the authority to call to the degree of Barrister-at-Law has been tacitly relinquished to the Benchers of the Law Societies, and is now coQsidered to be delegated to them from the Juages of the Superior Courts : accordingly, on disputed questions, an appt al is held to lie to the Judges from the decision of the Benchers. In ♦^"j case of Attornsys and Solicit-ors, the Judges of England retained exclusive power to admit such to practise, until 1843, when the control of this branch of the profesol.^n was confided to its members, as an incorporated (a) There sccras to be a strange anomaly inthc practice uf I'ppor Canada, in regard to tlie members of the legal profession. Its Law Society has control over but one branch of the profession, while most, if not all, of the members of tliat Society, belong to the other branch, over which no control is exercised, lave that of the Judges in admitting to practise, -id of the Secretary of the Law Society In granting certilicates ho cannot refuse. The qualillcatinns of an Attorney are no less important than those of a Barrister, and should be as strictly inquired into, especially when the person seek* ing to practise is not, or does not intend to become, a Barrister. England and Lower Canada have each set us an example worthy of imitation, — [Since the foregoing was written, an important decision by Judge Oowan, of Bairic, ha> appeared, accompanied by some editorial remarks, in the Law Journal, bearing upon this qu tion. The Hon. Mr, Patton has also introduced a general measur» on the sub- ject. Into the Legislative Council.] (b) An earlier Statute, 8J Henry lU. cap. 10 (1835), provides that "Every Freeman which nweth suit to the county, trything, hundred, and wapentake, or to the court of his lord, may freely make his attorney to do those suits for him."

(See No, 26.) If the School Trustees refuse to sign the order upon the Local Super- intendent for tlie payment of tho School Fund as provided for by the Act, they may be proceeded against by Mandamus; or, perhaps, they may be sued in a special action for not making the order ; but they cannot be sued for the money, as that is not in their hands.

A by law of a Township Council authorizing the levy of certain rates IP ft school section haviny; been qua;n meeting having been called, passed another by-law for the same purpose, it was held : — That the discretion to raise the sum within any number of years, not more than ten, rests as much with the council as with the i^chool meeting or irustee.s. That the rate was not declared on the property assessed in a previous year ; but only the amount to bo raised was determined by reference to the assessed value of property in that year. That the rate not beein^ complained of as excessive, its being calcu- lated to realize more than the precise sum required, did not render the by-law invalid.

That the duty imposed on the clerk in maith December next after. Nor is it necessary to show that the people desire an alteration of the boundaries to authorize the Council to make it. The union of two or more school sections in the same township into one, may take place at any period of the year, and would then require a new election of Trustees. Tru-tees are bound to collect by Wanant from the residents of the school section; and to sue for and recover by their name of office from per- sons residing without the limits of the section and making dt'fiiult of pay- ment. — Chief Superintend nt in re Trustees No. '2, Moore v. McRae, 12 Q. B. R. 625. 14. Disuniting union sections of adjoining Townships, and uniting two or more into one. The Municipal Council of a Township pnssed a bylaw, disuniting a union section with another Township, ani uniting such part section and two dis- tinct sections in their own township into one, after a petition from certain inhabitants of the sections conctTned; Held — That the Council was not bound to give notice to the inhabitants of that part of the union section belonging to the oilier Township — it being out of their jurisdiction; but in regard to the parties within their authority, they were required to be satisfied that due notice had been given. They are made the judges of such " due notice." The authority of a Towns-hip Council "to alter any school section al- ready established," is one to which no restriction, save notice, is attached • but the authority " to unite two or more school sections into one, at the re- quest of the majority of the freeholders or householder.-» in each of such sections," is accompanied with a restriction at ouce expressed; and which restriction docs not, by grammatical construction, extend to the power of merely altering biinndiirics. In the Supplementary Aci, the "restrictions in regard to alterations " are spoken of as distinct from any other expres- sion. The intention of the fourth clause of the eighteenth section of the School Act of ISSO, is, that in a measure for merely altering the boun- daries of sections, the Township Council may take the initiative; and can act without any previous request of a public mec-ling ; but il they enter it of their own accord, they must see that all parties to be iifl'ectcd by the alteration have been duly notified of the intended stop ; jind if they have been applied to <»n the subji-ct, ihey are not bound to entertain it until they see that due notice has been given. M DECISIONS ON SCHOOL QUESTIONS. 119 The intention of the seventeenth section of the Supple;nentar3' Act, is that the Township Council may pass u by-hiw for brin}>ing biiclc exclu- sively to their own jurisdiction, iiny part of the Township united to ano- ther ; and that they may make what urranj^ement they think most con- venient for givinjy the iniiabitants the benefit of the Common School laws; but they cannot do so unless it clearly appears that all parties have had due notice. — In re Ness v. Municipality of Salljleet, 13 Q. B. R. 408. 15. Alterations of School Sections and of Union Sections. The Municipality of a Township may alter the boundaries of School flections within their township, by taking from ono and adding to another, without any previous request of freeholders and householders, and notwith- standing their disapprobation of the change — provided that those affected by the alteration have notice of the intention to make it. But the Muni- cipality has no power to alter the boundaries of a union School section consisting of parts of different townships — ?n invisible bodjr, cannot manifeit its will hj oral communication : a pe- culiar mode has therefore been devised for the authentic expression of its intention, —namely, the afBatng of its common seal: and it is held that though the particular members may express their pri ' vate consent by words, or signing their names, yet this does not bind the corporation ; it is the flziog of the seal, and that only, which unites the several assents of the individuals composing it; andmakei ona joint a(unt uf tb« wbole."— SnuWi MercanUlt La», 3.l,e,i. w 122 MKMORANDA. li .mm \1^ s 5 "a 00 o ."" ^ -: O e «- H . 9 O «: O M £M "M ■g-- < k « S| ^1 O o i The following hints may be use- ful to School TruBteeB, in making arrnngemfiats fur school buiidines. Everylhing around and in tli« School-Hjuse should be atti'active t<» the eye and improving to the taste of the pupils, since it is in connection with the School-House llmt children receive many of their earliest and most lasting im- pressions : — 1. Tlie sites should, where prac- ablc, be at least half or a quarter of an acre, and be fixed in an agreeable and cheerful neighbour- hood, apart from railways, mills, &c. The position should be some- what elevated, or on a gentle slope, nnd not in the vicinity of low ground or stagnant water. 2. The door shoultl face the south.ani] the principal windows be to the north, thus rendering access ; to the School House agreeable at all if^ea^ous, and the light inside always free from the glare of sun- shine. 1>LA.N3 or BOBOOL-HOCaKB. 123 8. The ground should be planted with tree?, and E^hould also bo nicely laid out with shrubs and flowers where practicable, so as to promote in child- ren a taste for neatness, order, and beauty. 4. The proper and economical heating anr' ventilation of the build ing should also be care fully studied. 5. The School-room should be provided with comforable seatp, and desks. These can now be easily procured at the vai'ious school furniture manufacto- ries. 6. When the School House is thus prepared and ready for occupa- tion, maps and appa- ratus, and a good teach- er, should then be pro- cured.

Worcester'* Universal an 1 Critical Dictionary. 2. Worcester's Academic Dictioiiaiy. 3. Worcester's Comprehensive Dictionary. 4. Worcester's Elementary Dictionary. 5. Worcester's Primary Dictionary. To show in what estimation these books are held, it will be proper to state that they have recenilv been introduced into llie Public Schools of Boston, Cambridge, New York, Baltiriiore, Washington, D.C., New Or- leans, St. Louis, Chicago, Buffalo, Rochester, and many other places in which tl.tj Schools ara in the highest state of excellence. In addition to this testimony, recent letters of eonimendution have been received from Messrs. Everett, Prescott, Irving, Bancroft, and other eminent writers, whose practice is known to be in conformity with their expressed opinion. Hon. Edward Everett says, — " I have made constant use of Mr. Wor- cester's Dictionaries since thtir first publication. His orthography and pronunciation represent, as far as I am aware, the most approved usage of our langmge. His deP.nitions seldom leave anything to dtsire." Horace Mann expressly says, — " In all my writing, speaking, and teach- ing, I have endeavored to conform to the rules of orthography and pro- nunciation as contained in Worcester's Dictionary." Hon Charles Sumner says, — "The Universal Dictionary f have used almost constantly, and almost daily, since its publicaiJon, I have no hesi- tation in calling it the best practical Dictionary in the English language." Other gentlemen use language to the same effect; and, in point of fact, it may be seen by their writings that they deign to conform to the most approved usage, which Dr. Worcester recognizes as the standard au- thority, and of which his Dictionary purposes to be the exponent.

NKVV WORKS. I. Tate's Natural and Experimental Philosophy. II. Tate's First Lessons in Philosophy. NOTWITHSTANDING the number and varietv of text books on Na- tural I'hiloHophy now before the public, the peculittr excellencies of Professor Tate's treatise, tofjether with the expressed dosire of some of our most eminent teachers that it mij^ht be made avuilublc to them in their in- structions, seemed to cull for its re-publictition in this country. It was origin illy prepared as one of a series of text books for the use of the ma:>ter8 and students of the Baltcrsea Golle<;e, near Loudon; and how well it hus fulfilled its purposes, is evident from the high commendations be- stowed upon it by Her Majesty's Inspectors of Sch«)ols, and the Committee of Council on Education. As a text book for schools, it embraces all the essential requisites. The principles of the science are cleurly and concisely stated, with their practi- cal application to the arts of life and the phenomena of nature. The ex- periment!! are instructive and iuteresiing. requiring for the performance of most of them but a trifling expenditure for apparatus. Examples und pro- blems to exercise the student, with upwards of six hundred diagrams for illustration, pervade the work. The Natural and Kxperimental Philosophy hus already been adopted ia the High Schools of Charlestown, Brookliue, Newburyport, and many, other places. It contains 528 pages 12mo., and is beautifully bound in, cloth, embo sed. The First Lessons in Philosophy is designed for Common Schools.
