a rarely-visited and neglected region, to which modern toleration and enlightenment had not yet penetrated, we could scarcely blame him, for our behaviour in the framing of this educa- tion law has laid us open to the sneer. : Experience isa good master. Our Education Act is very far from perfect. Time will certainly reveal its gefects, but not so certain- ly will the opinion Of its admirers be changed. Its original framers s2em to have comprehend- ed, after a yery hazy fashion, the condition of the problem they set themselves to solve. In their aspirations after uniformity they seem to have underrated the religious difficulty. They perhaps thought, that as they themselves saw no connection between elementary education and religion, no other one should. Relying on this, they adopted a confined mouid, and the figure produced ip by consequence dwarfed in its proportions. The very head and front of all the offending has been the very laudable motive of establishing among us a purely national system of education. Now, it 60 happens that the accomplishment of a like project, in circumstances more favorable far than ours, wes the deam of extreme men sume tweuty yearsago in Europe. They made the attempt, and faiied—not for the want of a fair field on which to try the experiment, for the field was Germany—but from that bene- ficent jaw of nature, which has ordained that things rotten shall perish. The Rev. Mark P ttieon,aesistant Commissioner on Elementary Education in Germany, in his Report for 1861, writes thug:— “The extreme party in 1848-9, desired to bavish all denominagional instruction from the chvol, and to leave that to be taught by the Minisier in the Church.

If we return so soon to the question of Education, its paramount importance to the State must plead our excuse.

To | subsidise the spread of education is wise

ROYALTY IN THE NEW WORLD.

Prince Arthur in his progress westward and southward, hes reached Quebec, and been received, as at al! points or the route, with the heartiest manifestations of popular regard. It would not seem from this that loyalty ie dead in the Dominicn, and that the British possessions in America are ready to fall jike ripe frui: into the open arms of Unele Sam. The progress of tle Privce has been a continued ovation, the more signili- eant that it has ato ed for any lack of ‘ ficial display by the spontaneous demonstrations of the people. And in view of what may be the destiny of the Jominion thie welcome is moet euggestive. Are the people of Canada melined to have the Prince reign over them as a constitutional sovereign? Certain jt is, that if they areeo inclined, th» proposition will be courteously considered by the British Government. If the Dominion ie anything, she ie Conservative. It is trues few annex- stioniats float on the surface of the political #:ream, but the grea! majority are British to the core and have not the slightest desire to participate in the heavy taxation on this side the border. We trust that if there is any de sire of the kind we refer to, that the visit of Prince Arthur will not be allowed to pass without some definiig action being taken in the premises.

The present eond sion of affairs in the Do minion is not a satisfactory one, and it is de sirable that, as soon s@ possible, some plan of government shoy\d be proposed that wil! unite all parties oon & common platform Thie step may be taken this winter us well as at any other time, and it will be well for the next Parliament to take the init’ative. Popular petitions would be a proper method Tl ales the matter before that body, and at the same time of obiaining a faithful ex- pression of the publie will. The Dominion espnot long continues in ite present position if the avewed colonia! policy of the Home Government is ca ried out, and it would therefore be wise to forestall events by plac- ing the administration at once on a perman- ent basis of prosperity. Meanwh le, we trust that Prince Arthur will not allow the opportuaity to pese of visiting the United States, where we are sure the eon of a Queen

so generally beloved will meet with @ recep-—
