Miss Jones. . ,
The Superintendent, S. B. M'Cormick,
proposed several words npon the blackboard;
the map of the county was also drawn; the
convention then proceeded to the analysis of
the following words, viz: fourth, fifth, sixth,
seventh and tijhth. The words fijth, sixth
and eighth were said to be wrong according
re mollis Mr. Elv saii he
IU UUl luuug Ul uiiuij.. w
thought the words were right.and quoted au
thority to prove his assertion; he also stated
that our orthography is very bad. Mr. M -Cormick
Etated that the French language is
worse than ours; Englishmen would have 'h
in every word where it ought not to De, ami
out where it ought to bo in.
Mr. M'Cormick said that false syntax was
the best mode of teaching a child, either on
the blackboard or slate.
Mr. Ely thought the Superintendent was
rusty, but would get Drigui auer awuwc-,
that we bad no rule to change holy into holies.
The teaching of the alphabet, he would take
the blackboard and write upon it the letter
'o and then add 'x,' which would make 'ex.
Mr M'Cormick -undertook to wnu me
brew letters upon the blackboard and

to help him to remember where a place is ;
Mr. Harold highly concurred with what had
l.n Raid, and was in ' for outside maps; .Mr
Wills '. also went in for outside maps. Mr
Hoover wanted to know if a mountain be ever
so high, would the heat be as great at the top of
the mountain, . providing ' that there it be as
level as it is at the foot of ther mountain; this
caused considerable' discussion by Messrs.
Ely, M'Cormick, Hoover, &o.

ers, but lie tnougnt tne earner me ueuer; Aur
Jones thought the boys were getting ahead
of him in Mental Arithmetic, because he did
not practice enough.
Mr. M'Cormick thought that the mind of a
child should not be loaded with a burden, a
burdon that does not belong to it.
This was followed by the Singing of the
Scholars of the ULion School. Adjourned

Mr. Jones, arose and said that he was cn-

Mr. Evens, said that he did not prepare.
Mr Jones, arose and said that tbey may
consider him about 30 years of age. Teach

Mr Bricker, said that ho did not come to
