presume, to ix the practioe in in other Provinces, is that the County Court Judges (sppointed by the Dominion Government) do the work of Judges of Probate, and are paid for their services as sach by the Provincial Government, which takes the probate fees.
The smallness of this Province makes questionable the expediency of a division of the work of the Probate Office amung the three counties But whether 4 Judge of Probate be appointed by the Dominion Goverument, os the practice of Ustario be followed,—there ought to bes radical change in respect to the fees paid into the Probate Cuurt. flitherto they have been so high that hundreds of dollars bave been exacted from sume estates; and they have inured not to the advantage of the Province, but to that of the Judge. A reform is needed in the interests of those who are compelled to do business in the Probate office and also in the interests of the country at large. Nor could a better tims than the present found in which to institute the reform that is need- ed.

ReMEMBenine that the Chief Superin- teudant of Bdueation has been in office but » few months, weshall not criticise his report from the Opposition poiat of view. It ia pleasing to note that in the presentation of che statistics he has followed very closely upon the lines laid down by his predeces- sors. The number of school districts in the Proviace at the end of 1891 was 442, or three more than at the same date of last year; and the number of school depart- ments was 53l,—an increase of one. There has been a gradual diminution of the number of vacant schools. Last year not a single school was vacant. The bless- ings of free school education were general throughout the Province. The number of teachers employed was 531-268 men and 263 women;—227 teachers were employed in Queen's County, 169 in Prince and 135 in King's.
Of pupils there were two hundred lesa than las¢ year. But the percentage of attendance was larger by 292—the daily average being 12,898 in 1891 and 12,490 in 1890. Upon this point the Superintendent remarks
“This is particularly gratifying from the fact, that one of the greatest difficulties the teacher has to encounter is irregularity of attendance. The best matured plans for the advancement of his school are often defeated, hie own energies and ardor not infrequently dampened from this cause. A few of the evile arising from irregularity are: (1) Its effects upon the classification of the school, The irregular attendant needs additional attention trom the teacher in order to bring him up tothe average standing of his clase. This can only be given at the expense of the other pupils. (2) The pupil who sees his classmates advanced into higher classes while he, from no fault of his own is left behind, ia discouraged, perhaps disgusted with his atudies and is often led to abandon the school with a very indifferent education. (%) True education is a matter of steady and well directed effort. The want of clearness in any part of « subject affects the thoroughness of * pupil's knowledge in regard to the whole. Hew then can there be any accuracy or precision with the breaks which trequent absence necessarily produces "

He says
“One remark I must offer, and it affords me great pleasare in doing so, and that is that I have observed in the students who en- tered in Angust a great improvement in pen- manship aod spelling. This, I can say, has afforded me moce satisfaction than any- thing else for several years ia connection with the studenta who have come to us from the varioua schools of the Province. It is not only a great comfort to examine well written and correctly spelled papers, but it is an un- erring evidence that these very important subjecta are much more carefully taught than formerly. It also becomes a guarantee that these young people will be able to prosecute work in these subjects when they get schools ot their own, with «a zeal and intelligence commensurate with their importance.”
Our public schools cost list year $111,- 164.43 —or $2,472.21 less than in the previous year, in which over $3,090 were expeuded upon the improvement of Prince of Wales College and Normal Schoul,—and nearly $500 more than last year were paid on ac- count of supplements.

There are several other points in the Re- port on our public schovols to which atten- tion ought to be ealled by Tne Examiner.
We inay retura to the subject. A i = — We learn that Mra. Hunt i+ soon to be heard at the bar of the House uf Assembly on the subject of temperance teaching in our public schools. There can be no doubt thet our pub’ie men will be none the worse for a little ceutle stirring in respect to this subject.
_——-& © o— Cox crnt Last Niewt.—We must congratu late Mr. Hawley upon the success of the
concert given under his direction in the Philharmonic Hall last evening. It was an exceedingly p'essaut effair, and every one who was present oppearel satisfied with the manner in whe the programme was carried out. The vocal solos by Miss Karle and Mr. Davison were well given and deservedly applauded, a3 were also the piano duet by esars. Hawley and Heartz,and the piano solo by Mr. Heariz, Miss A. Stentiford’s recita- tion wee capitally gives, and the autoharp selections by a group of young ladies were greatly appreciated. Every one knows how well Rev. Mr. Carruthers and Mr. John Me- Pherson render their numbere, and it goes withont saying that the teadings by them last night were well given. The per- formance was brought to a close with selec- tions from the cantata, ‘“‘ The Haymakers,” which were splendidly given, and the singing of the National Anthem.
-
I happen to know not only that Mrs. Hunt was once a professor of Chemistry, but that by the best title she has herself a right to speak as au expert on every branch connected with this theme of scientific temperance education. If you should be favored, as | have been with the sight of her library, you would have to go far and look long to find another equal to it on the topic of the scientific relations of the tem- perance cause. | do not, know where on either side of the Atlantic anyone can be found whese opinions are m»re worthy of being received as thoroughly trustworthy from a scientific point of view on this whole topic than Mrs. Hunt’s are to-day. Mrs. Hunt's success in making scientific temperance instruction compulsory in all but nine States of the Union and the National Government is an eighth won- der of the world, although she is a modest lady, and is not as often heralded by the press in her travels and im her sacrifice and successes in Legislation halls, as she should be. 1 doubt not that her name is destined to sparkle on the extended forefinger of history when a better age tbau ours makes upits jewels.—Joseph Cook, in Boston Monday Lectures.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
Additional Protests:
Sin,—The firet teaching I ever r ceived concerning the efficacy of the death of Christ aud -the propriety of observiig one day in commemoration of His dying leve wa: from the poopie called Methodists. It is, therefore, with extreme sorrow that I notice a ‘* Grand Tea and Panecy Sale” is to be held on that dey in-sid of the Second Methodist Church— a Church which I have so often attended, and where I have learned much in the way of holi- ness. What, I ask, is Methodism coming te? Has i: oaly lived to-uniearn the good aid ways the devout and holy observances of ite founder and fire: messengers of saivation, Surety the Methodists have not so learned Christ?) The early Methodists did not spend Good Friday as a day of worldly pleasure—a day for feast- ing on ic? cream or holding fancy sales. No. They kaw themselves better. They observed
Jesus, and His all-sufficient sacrifice. They observed it as a day cf intercession for the convertion of sinners, and for imploring God’s mercy upon themaelves. Alas! that they have so soon lost their first love! But some may say Good Friday is no more than any other day. In one eense this is quite tru,
t is no more than any other day to thuse who know little of the love of Jesus, and to those who do not think it necessary to set apart one day for thinking seriously of His passion and death. Again, people may say that God has only commanded us to keep holy the Sabbath day. But I ask, are we on that uaceount to have no week day services? Will God be displeased if we set apart aday for seriously thinking about what He has done forus? No true Christian can possibly think so. And what day 1 ask can be more suitable for this than Good Friday—a day on which miilions of Christians (including the vast majority of Protestants) commemorate the death of their Saviour. Every true Methodist knows the blessedness of observing this day devoutly, and [ hope many will still continue to keep it as their furefathers did. Let those who love the memory of John Wesley and the good ** old paths ” go to the House of God on that day and not to the ‘‘ grand tea.” A humane feeling, to say the least, and a little consider ation tor the better instincts of their brethren, might have chosen a more suitable day for such a festival But it is not yet too lute to change it, und I sincerely hope they will do so =: It paius me very mach tohave to write in thiz manner, and nothing but a sincere love four the truth would prompt me to do go,

Sm,—I am glad to see a protest against the propesed Good Friday Tea and Seth Sale. Surely our Methodist friends must havo chosen that day without taking into considerstion the feelings of a large nuim- ber of their fellow citizens, for I am certain they would not wantonly give offence in such a matter, and are not we Christians already sufficiently divided without any further breach being made? ‘Will not, then, the managers reconsider their deter- mination and transfer their entertaiument to Kaster weck ? : If the advertisement had simply an- nounced s Tea, etc., on Friday, April 15th, we might have thought it was an oversight —but Good Friday is the name of the day which many Christians (Protestants as well as Catholics) observe as the anniversary of the death of Jesus Christ, and to have an entertainment advertised for that day seems to us a slight put on the memory of our Lord. Let me put it to our friends in this way : Suppose the Roman Catholics, for instance, advertised » Fancy Sale on April 30th, no one wonld feel aggrieved ; but if they put at the head of their posters :.-‘* Anniver-- sary of the Death of Juhn Wesley—Grand Tea, lots of fun,” ete., the Methodists would very rightly corisider that “offence was intended to be given them aii their founder. Pod Puen aaa eet A Lover or Curistian Unrry, Six,—-Will you allow one who laments any interference with the solemnity of Good Friday, to express a hope that the Methodists wil! yet see their way clear to hold their Teaand Fancy Sale on some other day.
