I was much gratified to see that the enthusiasm , of the mombers of the Institution isin no | way abated regarding the noble work— the | advancement of the cause of education which they have in hand. Some very valuabie suggestions have also been thrown out—a few of which I will now review. The adornment of schoolhouses should receive marked atiention as affecting in no smell degree, both the comfort of the school, and inclination to attend of the pupils. Country schoolhouses particularly, are badly off in this respect; whereas with a little taste on the part of ratepayers, and the outlay of & smail sum, they might be made at once pleasant and attractive. The proposition that the schoo] year should begin Ist November, is a good one. Teachers would have time to look for suitable schools during the October vacation, and the excitement caused by annual meetings could have subsided. It is an admitted fact, however, that the salaries of teachers are too low. Several districts have discontinued the granting of supplements, and no teacher can do effi- ‘cient work when the remuneration is scarcely sufficient decently to maintain ‘him. He goes into his school on Monday morning and toils till Saturday evening in ‘a work for which there is little pay and far ‘less gratitude. He experiences endless annoyance from some who think their chil- dren should be amenable to no law and sub- ject tono punishment. If he punish these rebels he is abused. If he allow them to |pursne their course, anarchy and ridicule ‘are the result. | Now, if teachers wish to better their con- dition they should have a better under- ‘standing among themselves. Every j\feacher in the Provincemand they ;are not few—should be a member of ‘the Educational Institute. They should present a petition to the Legislature pray- ‘ing for such amendments to the Public Schools Act as will tend towards increased ‘salary, and greater control over the gov- ‘ernment of the schools wherein they may | teach, which will at once enable them to /keep careless or partial trustees, and re- bellious pupils to their duty ; and in these things calm and wise public opinion will sustain them. The introduction of Gage’s Readers would be beneficial if they could be intro- duced by degrees. However, it would cause a large outlay, and teachers are wise in not giving a too hasty decision before the country shall have time to consider. Hoping that the Institute may long remain to pursue its work of usefulness and mutual encouragement, and thanking you, Mr. Editor, for your valuable space, I remain, A Frrenp or EpvcaTion. Charlottetown, Oct. 15, 1884. Coast and Range Lights. Sir,—It will surely be admitted by all can lid men, of whatever shade of politics, that, so far as lighting up our Island coast is concerned, the Libera!-Conservative Gov- ernment deserves no small share of credit. For instance, take a glance at King’s which was erected there some few years of which the late Jamented Emanuel Mc- Eachen was a promirent member. And among the lighthouses established at a later date in this section of the Prov- ince, we may point to the Souris Light, to the Cardigan Light, to the Savage Harbor Light, to the Cape Bear Light, and to others, all of which were erected by the present Conservative Government at Ottawa. This is certainly a pretty fair showing in the matter of lighthouses. But, good as itis, more lights, both coast and range, are still required, There is, for instance, one needed on the North Shore between East Point and St. Peter's, some- where in the vicivity of either Big Cape or Naufrage, as may be determined upon after careful examination of the coast. Grane River, near the mouth of which is situated the enterprising little village of Annandale,should be at once lighted. Two range hghts there would be quite sufficient; tho one to be placed at Red Point, and the other at the point of the Beach, both of which points are on the south side of the river. Lights erected at those places would prove of great service to fishermen, as well as to sea-faring men generally. Boughton Island, itis thought, should also be lighted. There are a few other localities in this part of the Island to which we may refer at some future time—where lights should be placed. In the meantime, yours truly, Kines’ Country May. Oct. 20th, 1884. H. M. 8. Canada arrivei from England afew days ago. The Broad Arrow of the 20ch inst. says: ‘* The Canada was commis- sioned at Portsmouth, May Ist, 1883, by Captain Durrant, and subsequently left England with Prince George of Wales as one of her mlidshipmen. She retarned prematurely on the 2od August, and after uncergcing a slight refit she now goes back to her old station to complete her commis- sion.

CURRENT NOTES. _ Ottawa threatens to increase the taxes on insurance companies. Quebec is azsin agitated over the C. P. R. terminus question, Shantymen are leaving Quebec in large numbers for the woods. The second Anglican church congress opened in Toronto on the 14th. The inauguration cf the Sir Geo. Car- tier statue has been postponed until the re- turn of Sir John. Julia Seeley has been committed for trial at Kingston, on a charge of attempting to poison her husband. Diphtheria has been quite prevalent im the vicinity of Moncton, lately, and several deaths have occurred. The seventh annual meeting of the On- tairo Women’s Christian Temperauce Union is in progress in Toronto, Eight persons have died of smallpox in the township of Argo, Dakota, and nine- teen others are prostrated. Calculation at Harvard Observatory, shows that Wolf's comet has for its periodic time of revolution 6% years. About 100 Christian Chinese women have been married to Christian Chinese in the mission chapel at San Francisco. Something has discovered the astonishing fact that among the one thousand convicts in the Virginia penitentary there is not a single lawyer. The Paria Soir, in criticising the English preparations for the Soudan expedition, is most amused of all by the officers each taking a tub to wash in, In London bank directors know some- thing about the affairs of the bank. Each one serves in turn a short time as practical manager of the institution. It is rumored in Berlin that Count Herbert Bismarck will soon be appointe:t Vice-Chancellor, to relieve his father of many of his onerous duties, While General Butler was addressing a meeting at Jersey City a disturbance was created, and the General asked his friends to slap the disturbers in the mouth. A convention of temperance workers will be held at Kingston to consider the advisa- bility of submitting the Scott Act simul- taneously in Kivgston and Frontenac. Immediate steps will be taken by the Scott Act Executive Committee for the united counties of Northumberland and Durham to have the names recently pur- loined from the Scott Act petitions re- placed. In his superb garden at Varzin, Prince Bismarck makes a speciality of roses of all varieties, and whenever at home takes great pleasure in attending to them with his own hands. Dr. Edward Davy, who is now living in the wilds of Australia at the age of eighty years, was one of the originators of the electric telegraph in England, but otbers stepped in and reaped the reward. The ten children of Joseph Pettijohn, of Prescott, W. T., are marvels of height and weight. A 17-year-ole son is 7 feet high, and weighs 265 pounds. The average height of vhe whole is 64 feet, and average weight 224 pounds. In England alone, during the past twelve years, the number of school tachers has increased from 12,000 to 37,000, good evi- dence that the mass of the people are rapidly fitting themselves to receive the tranchise and all other privileges and duties of responsible citizenship. An Ottawa despatch to the St. John Telegraph, says:—**R. Halibuaton, son of ‘Sam Slick,” lefi Ottawa to spend the winter in Jamaica. He will, on his personal responsibilty, gather information favorable to the union with Canada. He advocated this scheme so long ago as 1871. The prehistoric ‘‘busts,” supposed to be remains of idojs worshipped by the Mound Builders, of Pennsy!vania, are declared by antiquarians to be the handiwork of nature, and very poor handiwork, too, if the stones are to be taken as representations of the human form. The curious shapes can easily be accounted for from natural laws. Possibly, says the Toronto Telegram, Sir Jobn drew the long bow when he spoke of the bencficial influence of the N. P., but he should certainly not be blamed for saying a good word for the country. It has been so much the fashion of late for the Grit organs to run down the country, and show hat it is going to the dogs until a Reform government gets the reins of power, that it is an agreeable change to hear some person err spesking a word in its favor. If one must err it 18 better to err on the side that Sir John erred than on that on which Grit organists of the Glube stripe persist in err- ing. The ‘‘ bears” have had their owy way leng enough, Russia, with all her power, cannot put down the Nihilists. She hangs them, shouts them, sends them to Siberia, yet the crop never ceases to grow. In the army, the navy, the colleges, the police—in fact, in every walk of lite they are to be found. The Czar, poor, miserable tyrant that he ir, is afraid of his own shadow. Every ser- vant aud every cflicial about his person is aspy. He cannot trust even the members of his government. He doubts the loyalty of hig most intimate personal friends, and actually thinks it necessary to keep his own wife, and the ladies of her court, under police surveillance. It is impossible te sympathize with the Nihilists, some of their crimes have been so frightful, and yet who were taken out and their places supplied from the armament of her sister ship Cor- delia. —hnomemmiD en ii oo Qa eee sagen om Ye chen 2 es ——— can pity the trembling wretch who is the object of their hate?
