liitli'weights and pulleys, and there
are three ventilating shafts.' The

they, are also movable, resting loose

. der each perch is a board platform

inches deep. The nests, are cheese
foxes placed on the floor beneath
the platforms. The floor is always
yoveried with clean, coarse sand :
The store a7nd fe'ed rooms are under

from the pulverizing effect of , frost ;

Borron : • Great as are the benefits
conferred •upon society by oat zooderi
sjstem of schools, compared with the
schools of by-gone days, there are sorforns
defects in heir "Managenient, whiert dis
tract very much from their efficiency as
agentS of civilization; and these faults are
modern innovations=the‘ resifts of th e
lar ideas of the times, with 'reference to
the enforcement of laws, alwidts in past
ages regarded as necessary 'to . the well
being of society, but more lately lonked
tipon as too exacting. and severe. With
your permission, *et will call the atten-,
n of the readers \ of thii column to what )
w e regaid as one of \ the most prominent ,
and deldterious of these unfortunate ec-,
centricities of the day. -
Let us first premise; and we are confi
dent no one Wilt dispute the assertion, the
very serious proposition that, school gov
ernment is radically deficient. - indeed,
we think we can gn further with perfect
safety: and make the almost startling an
nouncement, startling not . 9n .. account of
its being unknown by any' means, that
this fault is characteristic of a great - ma-
jority of our schools. Failure in school
government is almost the rule, _ and suc
cess the exception only.
NOw this unfortunate State of afl'ai'?s; -
has'its cause : what that 'muse i and its
cure, are well worth the consideration of
all clasies of the commcinity. Perhaps
re may bainistaken, but we believe\the
cause to be the false idea that children
.can be governed 'altogether by whati
commonly called "moral: suasion.!' The
history of the past, allthe natural inclina
tion of youth, praveihis theory radically
false.. , Applied to those few genial, quiet,
naturally industrious' rnd Innocent little
ones, born for nothing hut . goodness', the
heroes and heroines - of our Sunday-school
stories,—all punctuality, love, perfection;
-and it succeeds; but make it a general
nile for all general humanity, and you
will signally fail. Frivolity, negligence,.
mischievousness,. ,occasionally absolute
viciousness, are the elements of character
with ithiCh the teacher has constantly to
deal. \ It is as 'myth the duty of the edu
cator to corrects' defect the disposition
of and behaviOo of tho child as to in
struct in arithmetic= and ••,. grammar. In
fact, this is the most, imPOrtant part of
his work. Good manner's, punctuality,
reverence for morality, .all•a
. re,as ne
cessary success in life as any scholastic
attainment.
If the pupil ikfrivolous, it is thdduty
Of the teacher to eradicate that weed and
transplant there insteakfixe4ness of
,pur
pose; if he is negligent, an disposed to,
skim over and sltgliebis•tas*, these bab..
its should be routed up , a 1 4 7 :. their place
,supplied with the desire 61 4lelving into
and penetrating'to the defii*ofitkings:
if , the child is tardy acrd irregular in at-.
tendance, and carelesssin the performance
of duty, these faults. the instructor must
correct and instil punctuality, atten
tion to business, and exactness in exech-•
tion, or the pupil's manhood will be no
thing but a: story of misfortune, disap
pointmont and failure. Mischievous dis
positions must be collimated and vicious
habits cured.
The teach 4 must aim to cultivate and
develop in the chili! ia. perfect chatact,
To effect this by anything short of disci
pline, sometimes rigid discipline, is an
utter impossibility; There is no'nkeessity
of being cruel. We want neither Smikes
nor•Traddleses; no, not even a Toots in
our American society Yet we believe
&hat a more . fretfrent remembrance and',
practice of what the wise man taught,'
"Ile that spareth the rod spoileth, the
child,"—would he attended with almost
incalculable benefit. . 2 lt is certain that a
radical change in public opinion must be
effected; 'if the thorough and ellicient
teachel is to beStiStained. As things•noir
are, he cans only strive to discharge his
duties, feeling the responsibilities of his
position; and. hoping that the• future, may
ring with it wiser views. Let not the

Paper read by Mi. Edmond • Sherwood ? before the
Bradford Tel Chen! Lanooiation .at Orwell.
In stopping,to consider for a moment
the causes of this 'wonderful change, we
are not so, much surprised at the losses of
Christendom, as that.she was able to re
tain what she did. So corrupt lutd(the
church become through the wpkedneks of I
the clergy so' weakened by schisms and
dissensions, that a thorough reformation
only could save it from titter ruin. Puri
tanism is the necess sty antidote of. eccle
siastical corruption. Not so much the
swordkof the Saracens as the adaptation
of. theikloctrinea totrt I:pnes, had car
ried-the. Crescent in iaripli from the
Gangiiato the pyrenees... Everywhere in
the church there were, thousands of dis
affected persons who listened with joyful
expectation to hear the battle cry of the
advancing_ Saracens. Wherever the last
spark , of independence had' not
.been
smothered . by the einneh, there was a
feelipg of abhorrence against' the popish
rule,-and a readiness . to accept any
change, - even to the renunciation of - Chris:
thatityitself. Well for the.. World then,
well for at
p. happiness and prosperity and
enlightenment of the 'world to-day, that
the
. Saracebs\Tsted their cause on the
sword.- - The o d chiirch never yi ed to
any influence save material fo ' . Her
dogmas were based, un pria pies op
posed to reason, anetherefore precluded
any change or progreAkm.' Islam was a
4 _rei'cilt against this tyranny and a demand ,
for a purer faith. Had -the Christianity
of the 6th century been the Christianity
of ttur Saviour , there would • nolslam.

been a Christian. Through the wole of
his work, ho never speaks •of Jesu but •
