| Mr. E. Roehte, in speaking of the amall average
| attendance at schools, anid that it Was unjust that
the teacher should lose a part of bis salary because
people neglected to send their scholara te schoo),
He thought that some ineara should be employed
to compel parents to keep their children in more
| regular attendance at school. He advocated a
greater difference between the salaries ot First
and Second Class teachers, adding that the qual
fications were, in bis opinion, high eavugh, but
that teachers were, in many instances, very
deticient in the brarches-in which they were re-
quired to instruct others, and maintained that, as
female teachers were required to possess the
sume qualifications as males, the salaries of the
former should correspond more pearly with those
of the latter, He said that the School Visitors
should be better paid than they are at preseuf,
and required to perform their duties in a more
sanstactory manner. He spoke of the national
series of sehool books as beng unfit for the youth
of our Island. He said that candidates, tor the
office of teachers, should be examined in, and
found qualified to teach the several branches re-
quired, before entering the Normat Sebool, in
order, that while there, instead of spending their
time in acquiring a knowledge of these branches,
they should rather spend it in learning the art of
teaching He also advocated the lessening of the
term of attendance at the Normal Schvol from five
to tivo, or at mest, three monthe. ;

Mr. Robert Boberisou said that teachers should
petition the Legislature for au increase of sal-
ary—that they should receive, at least, the sum of
£55 trom Government, avd that a Committee of
jthe Legislature xheuld be appointed te inquire
j tuto the state of Edueation. He also maintained
that it Was alivest impossible for teachers to
lawear to the correctness of their journals, a8 uis-
{takes might inadvertently be made.

Mr. Jotun McDonald said that it waa unjust that

pe darge an amount of remuneration for their

ing spent twenty or thirty years at the occupation,

Mr. James McDonald advocated the appointing

“seandalous salaries would make scaidalous

and approved of the yearly increase of salury, but
still would net iguure the efficiency vu: young

Mr. Joseph H. Webster said that it was just ' contests oceur, the polling will be ou the 17th

FENIAN 4 RISING” IN KERRY.

We subjoin a few extracts from a sermon

a

delivered by the Most Rev. Dr. Moriarty,!

j is ferry sa rece F i out.) e
| Bishop of Kerry, ou the recent Fenian | week ending February J6tb, 4,136 ap

break in that County :—

His Lordship said:—My dear Brethren—It
is the duty of the pastor of a diocese to give
advice and correction when his flock have been
led into any extraordinary folly, and to reprove
‘and rebuke them if they have perpetrated any
iextraordiuary crime, It is also his duty, if
| they suffer unmerited disgrace, to justify them
as far as he isabie. Now, since we met here
last Sunday some people in Kerry have been
betrayed into an act of maduess, whieh we may
safely say is without a parallel in the annals otf
junacy. I should have thought that, consider-
ing the spacious accommodation afforded by
our lunatic asylum, aud the facility alforded by
our board of governors, that there were few
dangerous lunatics yet at large im this county.
But I am sorry to say I was mistaken. It
would seem that some dozens of that class left
the town of Cahirciveen on Wednesday evening
with the avowed object of making war on the
Queen of England, and of upsetting the British
Kmpire. I think there is not one inmate of the
asylum who would not bold his sides for laugh-
terif he heard it. Now, if this were only folly
we might be satistied to deplore it, but these
people were answerable to God for their con-
duct, for they had, I regret to say, sense enough
to know what they were doing was a grievous
crime. It is just twelve months ago since I

these journals a masiery, a power of thonght and
an atiractiveness of style, which pe similar works
have ever attained. Publishers mm our country
have attempted reprints of ether Enrepean Ma-

demand for these journals growa just as education
