worthy of the highest commendation.
The school at present is principally

The manner in which those sinall pu-
pils answered the several questions de-
mendedwas certainly worthy of notice,
and shoWs that their knclwledge is not
mere book work, but isaneducation
which evidently must have been im-

ner. One particular feature of their
• knowledge was the Manner in which
they a,c uitted. themselves in their
reading classes, the answering some
very difficult queri s deduced: from
their reading iessoiis. The greater
number of the pupil of the fifth forni
passed. last summer' exanainatiOn, and,
consequently, are a4ltiveiy engaged in
the important duties of their profes-

highly of Mr. Burgess' abilities as. an
