A correspondent sends us a no
tice of the spring examination at Kish*
acoquiilus from which we make the
following brief extract: "The winter
session at Kisbacoqaillas Seminary
closed on Friday, March 9tb. The j
last two days were devoted to the ex- !
amination of students, most of whom
acquitted themselves with great credit-
There were sixty live pupils enrolled
during the session, which is a larger
number than were present at any time i
during the last nine years, while the ,
prospects for the future were never I
brighter.

For the Educational Column.
A Teacher's Influence.
A few years ago a correspondent of j
the Jioston Transcript related the fol- j
lowing interesting incident in the col- i
tnnns of that paper :
'I cannot remember the year—it was
long ago —that 1 passed the night un
der the hospitable roof of the Hon.
Salem Towne, of Charlton, in the
county of Worcester. As we sat
together, in the evening, and were
speaking of education and of schools
Mr. T ovvne informed me that about I
the year 1800 he taught a school in the ;
Southwestern district of Charlton. —
An inhabitant of Sturbridgc, tlie ad
joining town, had a son of whose abil- j
ities and gciTeral character he appear- j
ed to entertain a low estimate, and off
whom he spoke to Mr. Towne, dispar
agingly, "as a boy who gave him troub
le.'' Mr. Towne, notwithstanding this
paternal forewarning, consented to re- j
C-eiv-e the 1 a-d MI probation. On the :
evening of the very first day, the j
school agent came to the teacher and :
told him that the boy was a very bad I
boy, and would disturb the whole i
and nrust be turned out.
The agent, very probably, received ■
bis impressions from the judicious pa ;
lent, who seems to have made no se- I
erot ot his opinions. Mr. Towne re
jeeted this hasty counsel and informed
the agent that he should keep a watch
lul eye upon the lad, and he thought
it would be time enough to turn him
out of school when he made any dis
turbance, and that he was entitled to j
a fair trial. \\ hen the boy came for i .
tne first time to recite bis lesson, and i j
had gotten through, Mr. T. told him to i
shut liis LODIV. JI O did so, but instant- j
ly recoiled and dodged iiis head, as it
he expected a blow. The teacher in
quired what was the matter. Tli e boy
replied that he supposed he should be
beaten; and being a-ked it lie had been I
accustomed to such usage, ho replied i
in the affirmative. Mr. T. then quiet- ; .
ed his alarm, and assured him lie had I
nothing to fear, so long as he conduct
ed himseit well, and encouraged him
by Yh^manner ofV4eiv! I v
ln S .. \ S a PP l 'ob..t on, that he ventured
io say to him—J believe that von are a
good 003-.' 1 he>e words not only en
tered at the ear-they reached the
t ; 1 WH * >t adopt Ui^strono-ex
pression which I once hoard from the
hps ola very intelligent Jesuit, and
that the teacher 'had found a mas
ter key to the soul of his disciple ' hut
from that hour he had effectually
no"i e ' u C sv ' l!c,t : Tliat heautiful ap
peal My S on, give me thy heart,' had
not been thus silently made in vain.—
lhe lad told his associates that thou-di
others had said he was a bad boy, Mr
•V,. , i l,im """■ l!o
-vas a good boy, and ho was sure he
wished to he a good boy.
Not long after, the school r.-ent
a r d r
hat this boy should be dismissed from
the school. With this revest Mr T
diked' I l ° com 1 ,] r> "<* Mid that he
hked the appearance and conduct of
e boy, and thought that with some
little illustration of the law of kind
ness, he would make himself known in
the word as a useful citizen.'
