To Teachers
The schools of our (tinnily arc now open
ing for winter term. We cannot too often
remind Teachers of the great moral respon
sibility rehtingi upon them —for if the youths
placed under Ahem charge do not now obtain
the rudiments of an education they proba
bly never will, and if limy fail Ms...
the incompetency or neglect. of the Teacher,
the latter will be justly responsible fur, all
the evil that may befall the pupils in after
lifo for want of proper education. The suc
cess of the common school system depends
chuilly, too, on the proper discharge of duty
by the Teachers and if they discharge their
duties well,they may also calculate on a con
stant Increase of salary. Together, these
are the mainsprings of.all human action, and
we trust that each will strive to" act well
his part."
We desire, also, at this time to impress
upon teachers the great importance of not
overtasking their pupils—of giving shorties
miend_rsq.uiring. tress ta
cited—to review frequently, and never to quit
a subject until it ix thoroughly understood
"li ' ciripv much but how well"—never
strive' l'inllTry*Srolir pupils through books,
but to make them rinrierstand tilem--edu•
cute thoroughly as far ax.you go. Di; mire
that the romnicncrincnt, thi , first rides, of
every branch is well understood. Let every
sahool, all slaceaml.ages of pupils, ;Lie fru
queenly exercised and well versed in orthog
raphy, the foundation of all other proper ed
ucation. Let the six branches named in the
School Law be thoroughly understood be
fore the pupil is hiried m othars, and al

must report you to the Directors if 3 our &ci

to examine into your ?nodes of instruction,
and to advise you therein, to enconrage you
in %yen doing and to condemn your errors.
All this he tvill be pi ompt to do, for it is re- ,

for you to nal, e every elliirt to have v",our .
