xperience of the country is worth any thing i
itt all, it has demonstrated the correctness of
tis policy; and that the use of small bank

In no:cord:awe with this view of the subject, I

cohertts the moral welfare of the people, and
for that reafon will claim your anxious con-

These efforts have done much, and may do

all v6latious cnerwciimcills upon the rights

1:11a report of the Superintendent will ex

Chinaman School system for the year just
ilosed Ladrespectfully recommend the
ntggeatiMis of that officer to your careful cou
idderattou.
The general law of 18411, with amendmeuts
mcatiticationa, Nvus remodeled by the last
Lckislature. The most material parts of the
old law which were omitted in the new, were
the subldistrict,the endowment, and sectarian
features. The former - was rejected because
the unueeessaty. multiplication of Mikes
'..Which it authorized, and the conflict which
teitkeually arose between the committees and
t.'eetors; and the latter; because ih manifest
hostility to the true intent of the common
school system. These provisions, which
teemed to contemplate a separate school es.
tablishmem, under sectarian patronage., al
though controlled by the common school
directors, were originally onzrzifted Upon the
lets of 18:36 and 18.'38, and 'were agate re-en
tinted in 1849. They were very properly
'ktrieken from the system by the law of last
Cession. Should efforts be made in the future,
lit similar innovations, come whence it may,
t is hoped they may be promptly rejected.
The system, to be effectual, must be simple and
uniform in its operations. ;Special legislation,
inconsistent with the generul law, applicable
to particular localities or districts, to answer
temporary or rartial ends, always" has, and
alw a y s will embarrass the administration of
the
,general system, and should for this reason
be carefully avoided. • The integrity of its
forms; not less than the means to sustain its
operatiune; should be constantly maintained,
and sacredly cherished.by the government.
A new feature in the system, adopted in the
law of last session, creating the office of
County Superintendent, has not, as yet, been
fairly tested; and there evidently exists some
diversity of opinion us to the wisdom of the
provisions. It is already very obvious; at least,.
that its beneficial NVerkillg ' must depend
mainly upon the character of the agents se
lected to curry it into operation, Competent
and faithful. Superintendents may produce the
happiest results; whilst the agency of the ig ,
Dorian or irMttectual will be attended by the
reverse conserpiences. In order to give this
new feature of the law a fair trial, it will be
necessury,therefere, for the directors, in the
respective counties, to select Superintendenti
with sole reference to their adaptation to the
duti,s of the station.
Of the many obstacles in the way of the
complete success of our Common School sys
tern, the one most prominent. and most diffi
, cult to remove, is the want of competent
teachers. In some communities, I regret to
say, the system has fallen into comparative in
efficiency, because good teachers cannot be
found; and iu others the most vexatious con,
sequences have arisen from the•etriployment
of the illiterate and incompetent. Nothing
could exercise a more prejudicial influence:
!, indeed, between a very bad teacher•und none
at all, the latter alternative might, in many
instances. be • preferred. This deficiency is
clearly manifest, and hard to obviate. Some
of the best minds of the State have been oc-
I copied and perplexed with it; and until re
cently no general and practicable plan for its
removal bits been devised,
The pier' of granting permanent professional
certificates. by officers skilled in the art of
teaching, and eminent in literary aud scien
tific acquirements, to teachers who satisfac
torily pass through examination in the 'several
branches of study which the act of. M.ty,
1539, requires to . 1.),1 ta.ught iu every district,
anti also in the art of teaching—is already oh
vionslv effecting decided itnprovernent iu this
re,;:trd, and it is belk red will do nitich to
wards plachm the profession upon a high and
firm buss. Noma! schools, it is urged,
in addition, to some extent, supply the defi
ciency. but 1116 expenses of such an institution .
would be heavy. •
The source of this difficulty, .it is clear, can
be traced. in a 'great measure, to the want of
a proper appreciation in Jlie public mind, of
the pmition and business, of a teacher. The
proles-don. for this reason, in addition to the
absence of fair compensation, has not been
attractive. Indeed, it has scarcely been re
garded as a profession at all. brit rather as a
preliminary step to sonic ether pursuit. Well
directed efforts have recently been made to
chatv'e the general sentiment on this point,
and ?rejoice in the belief that these have not
been in vain ; au& the day is not far distant,
when the profession of teacher will be equal
to the aspirations of the most ambitious of our
people ; when its distinctions, &guides, and
pecuniary rewards, will command the Slum
and attentionf the most gifted. I can see
no reason why this state of feeling should not
prevail ; why he profession of leacher should
not rank irr"ft . 01101! and profit with the other
learned professions; why the science. of de
veloping the human imel lect—of giving scope
and tbree to mind—of elevating the mond fac
ulties of our race—of controlling the passions
and tempering the desires, should not be es
teemed as biehlc as those professions and call
ings wheso ornaments have received all their
capacity and polish at the hands .of the coin
paratively humble and illy rewarded - teacher.
I earnestly recommend the common school
system to your guardian care, as the must
, sacred of till your institutions. The offspring
of a constitutional injunctiou.on the Legisla
, tnre—the extension and perpetuity of its use
fulness is the plain duty of all. Resting at the
very foundation dale government, ltd prac
tical working should be a true reflection of
our republican system, and its blessed tipper
; tunities made available to all, regardless of
I rank or condition, or persuaston. It should
aid the poor, ad , :ance the rich, and make the
I bsnorant wise. I confidently anticipate for it
a day of greater perfection and wider hillu-.
enee. No better object can. enaage the atten-
I don of government, or Consume its means, than
I.
, the eoutation of the Niple in the most com
prehensive sense of the term; embracing the
use of letters, the cultivation of the moral fac
t
tildes, and the diffusion of christian truth.
In this we have the surest guarantee for the
pelpetuity. of our republican government, and
for the enjoyment of civil liberty and- religious
freedom. Such. an education may be safely
claimed as the rtio - rt potent means of prevent
i„ crime—of Mere:Li:Mg individual happiness
and naional dignity—of p reined lig christumity
and eivilis..ation—id - extirpating moral and pu.
litieal evils—of eleviniug, dignifying„ and
adorning our social - condition.
Our various charitable and reform
atory institutions—so creditable to
the State, and which, in their practi
cal operations, have done so much for
the relief of suffering humanity—will
claim the continued care and bounty
of the Commonwealth.
The State Lunatic Hospital - at Har
risburg, under its present efficient
control and management, meets the
just-anticipations of its wise and be
nevolent advocates. Its humane and
benignant agency in-ameliorating the
condition of the unfortunate class for
whose relief it was designed, can be
judged by no ordinary standard.—
The benefits. of pueli •an institution
rise above all peebniary. estimates.
Its purposes address them Selves to .
the best and noblestof feelings our
nature, and can only be rated at the
price of human hope and human
eason.
A somewhat dissimilar, though not
less meritorious institution has re- cently been established in Philadel
phia, fur the mental, training of the
Idiotic and Imbedle. The. astonish
ing results it has already achieved in
developing and invigorating the Weak
and clouded intellect, should secure
for it public confidence and patronage.
It commends itself to the bounty and
care of the State.
The institutions for the education
of the Deaf and Dumb, and Wind,
will also need, as they justly merit,
the .usual annuity from the State.
They are in a flouri,shing condition,
and continuo to bestow .numberless
blessings on the unfortunate beings
committad to their. charge.
