As to

ypractical view of affairs and do not care wmuch for sentimental grievances Now we atk Mr. Rowe and those who think with him to say if the following facts re- wresent an imaginary wrong or m™ P

Sometime since not more than a year sod a few months ago, nearly all the Catho- ie Boys in Charlottetown were taught in the old chape! school house. There were

%

‘bree teachers who did a large amount of

work and received something above £2:0 s year from the government. The time arvived when the building became too small for the increased number of children + who attended the school. The Catholics ' tet to work and built St. Patrick's Ha'l, a " staff of trained teachers,—first class educa- ors,—men whose whole lives are Jevoted | o successfully perform their duties were » sven charge of the school. They do «n ’ mmense amount of work in educating te ame children —as attended the old Chapel ihool ~ yet they receive not a single ceat rom the government. The position of airs is just this—all the Catholic children n Charlottetown are receiving as good

ecular education as they could get in te

rovernment schools, and the governnw at|

joes not give anything towards defraying|

he expenses of the Catholic schools. You ay that is because these schools teach re li- rion, aad the pablic funds should not be :i- ven for religious purposes. Very well! on eur ewn grounds we say, why not the yablic funds be devoted in fair proportion vw pay for the secular teaching dove in hese schools? Now, other places are in he segue position as Charlottetown is, in ‘egard tc this question. Then take the *rince of Wales College; it draws a large wows from the publie fends and not a tatholie student is in attendance ters. Che Catholics have a college of their own, hat gives secular education, remember, to \s many e3 are taught in Prince of Wales College, yet. this eaguler edyostion is icf maid for, aided nor assisted in any wey rom the public funds, towards which ;he jathobies are made te coptzibute. They bave © support their own coliege and schovls, us well es to belp the fund for the Prince of Wales College and goverument schools‘ We ean not cone to any other conclusion ban that there is a “ wrong” somew)ore bout eli this, and @ very grevions om at hat.

Although our correspondent objects to he assuyptions we mako that all those who built or contemplate building seh ois tre conscientiously opposed to sending their sbildren to other schocls than religious

The Islander, referring to a caucus meeting at Mr. Reilly s residence, on the 12th inst., says: “Accidentally was discovered in an adjoining room to that which were assembled | the supporters of the Government, Mr. David Laird, editor of the Patriot, and M.

The Norma] and Model Schools, though now more Cloely nuited than formerly, are not, |} think, o perfectly amalgamated as they should be, nor are they properly graded —sowe children studying the rudyweats of the lower branches being found in one of the higher rooma.

In the School kept in the Temperance Halli the class reow formed by weans ot a curtain twa mere sham, and the labor of the te chers there 13 siest thrown away fer nothing, from want of proper accommodation. The exposed corner of a back passage which is used, is shocking and disgracetul, Jt should be remembered, tuo, ¢bat children of both eexee attend tbia echeol.

Tbe Schout in DesBrisay 8 lane is kept in a a reom up too fights of stairs, the steps of which, are apparently not yery aufe. There is no out | house for the use of the ghildren eo they are ob-| liged tw go to those of private parties, or wher- ever they can find access,

The School in Scotts’ Hall ig unfurnished with maps, and the eui-heuse is in a shocking state

Atihe Kensington Senol the attendance is very small indeed, yet pumbers of children were tu be seen a)! around, at play instead of coming tw the school, which was vuly a few yards dis tant. The out houge fiers, which serves for al! the fampilies aroynd, is so a pestileutial state, aud utterly beyoud description,

A‘ the Spring Park Scheul the size of the room 1s net at all sufficient for the number attending. On the day of my visit I found the children cluse- ly packed in double rows, ‘The out-buwse is in a vad state.

Generally.speaking, thera is not one school room in the City, receiving Government pay, fil in all respects for the purposes of teaching, with the exception perhaps ot the Normal ard Model School rooms, and even these are gow found to be tov contracted for the numbers in attendance. The steadily increasi:.g attendance at the two last named schoule is gratifying, and is certainly to| be attributed to the auperior accommodatan, as weil as to the superior teaching tobe found there; whereae,.ay the contrary, the attendance at many of the other city schools is decreasing, aud the reasons are quite evident, viz: want of respecta- bie and comwodious e¢hool buildings with decent gurrouodings,the generally low standard of teavh- ing power exhibited and the culpable indiffer-| ence of these who do seud their children to schol | as to whether they aftend regularly or not.

When all these things are duly considered, it should not be surprising that there are go wany private echools in Charlottetown. Yet I own | was surprised to fiud so very large a number of children attending schools, not receiving Gov- vernment pry, and which I was at considerable pains to ascertain as follows ;—

St. Patrick's Hall (for boys), 240 pupils, the Con- vent {girlal, 150, Bt. Joseph's [ girla|,135, the We leyan Academy [both sexes], about 140, the Bug school [both sexes], 80, and seven other swall private schools [both sexes], 108, amount- ing in all to 853.
