Riches and honcur they might have, but these would not lighten their burdens. The joys and pleasures of this life might for a time drown, the‘r cares and sorrows, but deep down in the heart was a heavy irmun which these could not take away. ie then went on to describe some of the burdens which men have to carry, many o‘ which he said they thewselves »slone knew, their friends and relations knowing pothing of them. He text pointed out what they were to do with their burdens,. and said that the words of his text, which . were, "Cast thy burden u the Lord, and He will sustain thee," were a very good answer to the question, like Bunyan‘s Pilgrint;â€"tq go to the and lay their burdens there.

Lastly is taken up a short sketch of Mental Philosophy, the successâ€" ful teacher requiring to know something onhoï¬vonof the mind, &0. . We have here given but a very imperâ€" Fect sketch of this most important depart ment, but enough to show with what abi lity, Mr, McCate has organized the youn institution committed to his care, ‘ng the system upon which the studies of the future teachers of the young are conâ€" ducted. 1 Under the department of sciences are included the iollowing subjects: (|) chemical physics, (2) chemistry, (3) geo. lET:.o are the general principles ; and the teachers go on to apply to these J)rin- ciples to the%glqhmx of Reading, Spellâ€" ing, ‘irammar, Arithmetic and Geography, &c., &ke. To freely appreciate this part of the course, the lecturer lib&{:nl:nd. We happeried to be present at sitâ€" ting for the best method of teaching. ~~ _ Good teaching is next defined as a juâ€" dicious combination of direct statement, questions, and elli the teacher disâ€" criminating bo&woo‘::‘nt he should tell the pupils, and what he shouli be able to draw from them without telling. . In using text books, the matter conâ€" tained there should be treated as a fex? to preach a sermon from, but to illus m and expand. All ‘subjects should be u#:n on this dplan to beginners ; and after the mind has become more fully doulo‘p':& and that the pupil is able to trace the pnhcuhrtothomd. and ‘back again, text books, in .w knowledge is given in abstract form, may be used. The teacher is warned against the ractice of lecturing, doing all the work gimself, against mauy other faults in questiioning, &o. _ Guided by the teacher he ï¬;lrl'oooodl from one mm;;lo to another, fixing his mind on ts of resemblante, gradually rising frg;ui‘ndividuah to classes ; from examples to principles and rules, _ The more we can get che pupil to d¢o | w‘ himself, lhoflgmur will be our success as teachers. He must be brought to the sources of knowledge, and led to discover and arrange for himself.. Ho must be made to feel that knowlege is not contined to booksâ€"that it has not even its source there. ‘The book is but an artificial I reservoir: the fountain, the source lies | outside in the field of nature. Â¥oung children, and those whose minds are but little developed, require analytic teaching. If we begin with principles and rules,, they may commit these to memory without knowing ln{thing of ('q:r meaning. lWe hpruont ndividual olijects or examples, thus appealing to a meéental faculty already -wukeno(?? the dfld‘ thus understands the subject, is interested in it, and gives his inon:ion 10 k .> ‘ Canada should be proud of her edugaâ€" tional inatitutions, for the reason that teaching pupils is one branch of study, and feachiny toachers is another. ‘The latter is an art which, on the other nfdo‘ of the Atlantic, almost appears | to‘ baya been lost sight of.

In view of the above clause in the _ curriculum, _ a representative of â€" THx _ Fruss _ last * week _ paid a series of visits to the school, and he was most kindly received by. the Professors in the various branches of study pursued there. He found the arrangements per: fectly en regle, the lecture rooms in per fect order,and the gentlemen who occupy the chairs au fait in their work. Everyâ€" thing is conducted on a business like footing. | Nine o‘clock in the morning sees malés and females in their places in the class rooms, with the lessons . proâ€" pared and ready for the queries of the lecturer of the day.

The different intellectual powers do not come into full activit simultantaneously, jIn the young ohil!, the perceptive powers are first awakened, then memory, then reason. The educaâ€" tionist shoulid couform to this order. If the knowledge presente.l appea‘!s to a mental power not yet awakened, we shall fail to arrest the attention. The pupil must be taught ideas rather than wor‘is The following is a brief synopsis of the principles laid down in the professional lectures by Mr. MacCabe. First, it is important to start with a froper iden of what Education really is. t involves the culture and development of the uriou:.i)uh of our nature, physiâ€" cal, intellectual and moral. At this stage is given a himt that the healthful develo;â€" ment of any one power invoives tho culâ€" ture of the others. The oultixion of the intellect is first specially referred to. Ihis culture involves two elementsâ€"in forming and developingâ€"the first a cause, the latter an effect, and the mure important.. We must impart knowledge in su, h & way that it will awaken thougu:, stir the mind to new ideas by comparison and.reasonins. Weshouldaim to awaken a desire for knowledge, and train to the best mest method of acquiring it. EA4uâ€" cation is not to end with school life; but rather to begin when the child has left ::hgol, by his ability to acquire for himâ€" " The sole object of these Schools is to prepare students for the profession of Teacher ; and to this end, students have, in additiqn to the lectures, the advantage of practi¢e in the Model School under the direct supervision of the Principal and Masters of the Aormal School, and the teachers of the various Divisions." Next comes the question how this allâ€" important dovelo‘gment is to be obtained ? By exercise. e cannot educate by acting upon the child or working for him â€"we must secure action on his part. _ We come back to the meansâ€"the yarious branches of knowledge taught in our schools. ‘These branches must be taught in such a way as to awakeun interâ€" est, induce effort, give activity to the mental powers and secure their develop mentâ€"the grut end. The different intellectual powers ie it the term may bes applied, its situâ€" i could not have been {;ouer selected . Inâ€"lding hes already been d?wribod ras Timks.

His mode of i is as follows: A short lecture is dm | on the theory, and in the course of â€"the â€"lecture, _each principle is | ilustrated vocl:l‘lz. as well as by diagrams and other blaekâ€"board exercises ; the substance of the lecture is then embodied in a series of questions and answers, This subject is taught by Prof. Workâ€" man, who, while not adhering strictly to any particular school, claims that hiss tem is a combination of principles tz:; have b«nA -noqu:lly tutoï¬ b::h in Euâ€" rope and America, by men who have stood rentagt in their profession . There is as yet no &u.thorizod text book on trigonometry, so that this class is conâ€" ducted entirely ‘Jy lectures. The functions are from the beginning treated analyticalâ€" ly, and the practiical use of each conclusion is illustrated by numerous examples. It is intended to give the pupils instruction, not only in the theoretical, but also in the practical part of measurement of heigh(} distance and area, and the application 0 trigonometry to land surveying, &o. At present, however, the stock of matheâ€" matical apgm!un being rather limited, only the theory, with examples, can be given. Prof. Riddell‘ï¬, we understand, engaged in preparing for the press a text book on trigonomeiry and i.s practical applications, for use in High Schools and Coï¬a‘% & prominent feature of the work being the large number of exam ples lil:en at ever‘y step.â€"This work is &n en geâ€" mentof the notes which he has prepared as a basis of lectures. _ 3 are at each recitation given as home exercise. As occasion offers, the differâ€" ence. between the methods of ancient and modern geometry is explained, and the pupils uufht to _ genâ€" eralize the conclusions o Euclid, special attention being paid to Loci. The classes in mechanics are conducted chiefly bi lectures. ‘The exercises in the text book, occasionally suppl=amented by those derived from other sourceam, are taken for the practical work. _ The ‘ele> ments of trigonometry are very largely employed in this subject, since it comes in the course of only the senior students. The course in geometry covers for the second division the first three books of Euclii‘s Elements; for the first division, the first six :oob. Until the class has gone th: fifteen or twenty + ‘, tions, tmofm dom-mm% each proposition before them, pointing out the parts in which the enilre process may be divided, the mutual dependence. of the various &:rh, the necessity for each step, and the logical consequence of each conclusion from some axiom, defiâ€" nition or proposition -ntooedenflynznmon- strated. ‘Afterwards some member of the class is called upon to go through the same process, and the careful attenâ€" tion of each is ersured by â€" ocow: siona‘ly calling upon some one to complete a demonstration which has been . begun by some one elso. In the first division the whole work is gone over from the beginning, the beauties or deâ€" | fects of arrangement or demonstration pointed out, other methods of demonstraâ€" tion suggested or called for, axioms and definitions investigated, and their matheâ€" matical accuracy challenged or vindicated. Every means is taken in this class to call out the criticism of the students themâ€" selves upon the questions discussed, and in this, as in the tormer class, deductions vo S ra~ )/ on is treated of as form: ing pait of the theory of ustions ; in this class also the principlu:(}ulgobn are applied to the explanation of the proper~ ties of numbers, Bgi one ofultho most oon:lmodiom and efficient in the Province, and is arranged with a view to finding the students of the first division an opportunity for pracâ€" tical work.
