No 'uilcllccluaraUni'umcnt<, no men tal discij line, no sparkling . genius i will avail the teacher in., the school .-room, if he lacks energy. , There are ( xcepliona, hut the average scholai pmst he pushed. Without tliis con ?staut stimulus his ..mind becomes in , dolcnt and, sluggish. The choicest , thought conveyed in faultless rhctoaic may bo poured over, the student's mind, L-ut unloss that mind is stimtr : latcd to receive, and to seek for truth, t no effect will be secured except to weary and disgust. The best stimu lant, the teacher can use is his own example. If ho is a worker, alive . with interest, puts points in their -.etr.ongest light, if he concentrates all his mind to the business In hand, the student will recognize and shape his course to correspond; but if the , teacher is careless and indifferent, lie must expect the samp trails in his pupils. A man can't teach school and sleep at the same time. Brain i'and muscle must go together. Either without the other is, of little.impor tance in the school r6om or out of it. Tho Teacher's Institute. ThcTall meeting of this association is-but one montfi hence, and it is not too earl}' lo form and develop some .plans by which it may prove a suc cess. Arc the teachers in the coun ty interested, on ,.thp subject. Arc .ihcy preparing questions for dis cussion?- Do they deem the Institute of sullicicnt- importance to make an clTprt lo increase its influence? Such .mill similar questions should certain ly claim tho a Intention: of our teachers, .for upon their individual work de pend-; the success or failure of the meeting. The executive committee ?ill meet very soon lo determine and pub lish the programme, and we would earnestly invite nil teachers to send us questions, subjects, &c, ecu., that may aid us in consummating the or der of exercises. Direct to us and .we will be glad to lay iheuj before the committee. Again we ask all to .wake up, ami "work ivljilc it is'ilay," for by pur indifTcroncc we may kill the whole thing. Tiikrk is a sentiment more preva lent than sl.ould be, that those schools .arc the best which take the pupils at the earliest age, and keep them the .greatest number of hours. We need not say that this is a fallacy fatal to JLbo young, who suffer tho conser .qucdccs in premature decay. Sonic .parents imagine that as scon as their boy is large enough to don pants he /must go to school,-not particularly to learn, but "just lo keep him out of mischief." .We arc not an atlvpeale of sending children to school as'soon ns they quit crawling. Again, some patronswoulri hav? teachers consumo all day with their school, or rather teach "from the rising of the sun ti'.l .the1 govpg down thereof." Lei us hear what Sir Waller Scott says in regard to the limit of healthful mental jlabor: "I can very seldom reach six ?hours a day: and Iuicckou fhal what is . mitten after live or six hours of incnlal labor is Cot good for much." So we say, what the scholar learns after six or scyen hours of continuous confinement is not good for much. We will speak of this subject again. ' Wif wero glad to notice sometime naclt^tiiat our School Commissioner, Mr. Connor, was making a tour of in spection through thq count}'. This is light, emphatically eo, and we trust he m*y not terminate his travels till Jic haawibitcd every school under his charge. Wc most cordially extend an invitation for him to pay us a vio it, and spend a day or two in our School. 1 1 - -k ? 5TCT'' ?r~^~-?'?~ Aa.Anuduuced in the last issue the exorcises of our school, St. Matthews' Academy, writ openi.be second Mon day (8Ih) of September, and from present indications we confidently look for a prosperous tiession. Our people, wo arc proud to say, arc alive lo their interests and never flag in Ihe matter- of educating their chil dren, ;: ' It is eaid tiuit the French scholar is deplorably ignorant of geognrpby, fur this science has not had its proper place in the eurrien tun of French schools.
