I am, Sir, yours respectfully, CRITIQUE. Monday, April 3d, 1843. ' To THE EDITOR 0: THE COLONIAL HERALD. Sir; In perusing the columns ofthe Islander oi the 3d inst., I noticed an article bearing the signature of 'l‘vao, in which he ventures to dictate to a discerning public the manner of conducting schools and muzzling teachers in this Island. Now, Sir, I must allow ignorance to be his excuse, for I am perfectly aware that iflie understood any thing about the tenor of the present existing School Act, such absurdities never could have dropped from his scribbling pen. I can iii- forin him that drunkenness or negligence ofduty utterly dis- qualifies teachers from receiving any allowance from the public funds, as the Act expressly states that previous to any licensed teacher’s receiving any remuneration from Govern- ment, he shall first depOsite with the Secretary of the Board ofEducatiou an Agreement made on his behalfwith the sub- scribers, together with it document signed by the trustees of his sclwol and the next residing Magistrate, certifying his “good conduct, attention and sobriety,” during the time of his service, which shall not have been less than twelve months. It is excellent and well framed policy, on behalf of the Go- vernment, forextendiiig the benefits of Education throughout SIlIB Island, not granting any remuneration to teachers, unless they produce the forenained certificates. A great portion of teachers throughout the Island are so miserably recoinpensed by the subscribers, that it they could draw their “pittance” quarterly, many ofthem would not continue to fill their situations more than three months, as their agreements, in general, with the subscribers, state that they are to be paid quarterly—consequently disorder and confusion would be the result ofsuch a law. I am sorry indeed that ’I‘I’Ro seems so deficient of the knowledge ofliteraturc as not to understand that without “a smattering of Latin” we are quite unqualified to imbue the minds of the young with the fundamental principles of ourown language, and that, ifn‘iany of us possessed a little more of such “smattering,” we would not be so ready to “murder the Queen’s English.” ‘ It is Iiot merely the perusing ofa few pages of 11 Murray more ceremony of copying a manuscript from a Gray, or constructing a few trigonometricnl figures, that forms mathe- us a consummate knowledge of science, either mental or physical, is the result of long and continued researches. I regret to notice, by the Visitor’s Report, that there are so few schools in the Island competent of affording any know- ledge of' the classics. This, probably, originates from the small stipend allowed by Government. Indeed, ifthe Legis. lature were to deal a little more bountifully towards this important matter, it might induce some classical characters to assume the profession. The system of appointing Trustees is beyond a doubt commendable, for without this there would be no proper re- dress, either for the teacher or the subscribers. Their autho- rity, however, (which is sufficiently ample for all the purposes intended) is seldom exercised. It would be well for teachers to remind them oftheir duty. I am aware that changing, or rather exchanging teachers, isa bad method. lt is, however, irreinediable, as there is no man who would wish to bind himself for some two or three years, like an indented apprentice. / I no: Eta-Ionic} wash. A numerous meeting ofthe inhabitants ofLotg 18 and 19 _ ty was held war, on Wednesday: the 22nd were unanimously adopted by the meeting, throughout which founded on the said Resolutions was then prepared by meeting, by whom it was unanimously received, and sinned by all present. An adjournment ofthe foregoinn' mee’tino‘ was again held on Friday, the 24th of March. at tlfe house 06f Mr. W. Tindale, at Traveller’s Rest, at which the Resolutions Without a dissentingvoice, and the signatures to the Petition augmented to nearly 300. The Petition was presented to the House by Mr. Rae, on Saturday last, and provoked a good deal ofdiscussion. Among other things, it contained a very sweeping charge against the Commissioners ofSinall Debts, not only ofthe particular District from whence the Petition emanated, but ofthe Island generally, as well as a reflection upon the Executive Government ofthis Colony, which was deemed by the llanOl‘lIy of the House to be disrespei-tliil and unbecoming. The Petition was, in consequence, thrown under the table. A large and respectable public meeting was held at Bay \rtune, on the 28th ult.—Mr. Angus Macdonalil iii the chair,-——at which a series of Resolutions were unanimously passed, expressive ofthe serious grievances underwhich the mummy ofthis Island are now labouring, arising from various causes, and approving ofthe policy pursued by the late House ofAssenibly. The only novelty We can discover ill‘the Re- solutions passed at this meeting, is the determination embo- died in the 9th, and the recommendation contained in the 10th, to withhold their custom from such merchants and others as will notsupport the cause ofthe tenantry; and to support such as will aid them in the attainment ol’tlieir object. TEMPERANCE.—-On Monday the 29th Feb.,a Temperance Meeting was held at the West Point, at the house of Mr. John Carey. The Rev. J. C. Sinclair, the officiating Presbyterian Clcrgynian oftlie District, addresst the meeting, dwelling at Y considerable length on the pernicious cli‘eclsof ardent spirits.

At a meeting ofthe members ofthe Vernon River Temper- ance Society, established Deer. 26th, l642, held on Monday evening, the ‘27Ih nlt.-Mr.«Jnhn Fletcher in the Chair—it was unanimously Resolved, That this Society, fully approving of the Rules and Pledge nfthe Auxiliary Society, do now form them— selves into a Branch. to be called "’ The Vernon River Branch of the Prince Edward Island Auxiliary Temperance Society.” Several interesting addresses were delivered on the occasion.

HE Subscriber will attend at the following places, fur the purpose of Selling by Auction, to the lowest bidder, The country is already at an expense of'I‘wenty-eight Pounds, or thereabouts, per annum, for the constitution ofa Board of Education, that is held Quarterly at Charlottetown. That ought to be sufficient for a small Island like this; but Tvno indeed seems to have forgotten, or perhaps never knew, that Nova Scotia or New Brunswick is a very spacious country in comparison to this. Were a law passed, authorising each County to appoint a Board ofEducation, the question would then be, who is to constitute such Board. Probably a. few unqualified indivi- duals, to whom the inhabitants were most partial. Then the teacher would be under the necessitous obligation of submitting to be catechised like a converted heathen in all the whims and Caprice that they in their wisdom might suggest. ’ , There is, however, in the formation ofthe‘Sch’ool Act, one Very important clause, totally neglected, which is absolutely necassary—that is, the hours ofattendance to be attended to by the teacher. I cannot see any reason why teachers in the country are not as well entitled to all the privileges, in thi3 respect, as those of Charlottetown, as the progress of the pupil does not altogether consist in the number ofhours he remains within the walls of a school-house. I actually knew an instance Ofu man, in the vicinity ofNew London, who acted' as a trustee, and who wished to confine a teacher to his SChOOI-house, during the summer months, from 8 a. in. until 6 p. In. What could he more absurd? 1 Will now conclude (in answer to TYRo’s laSt paragraph) by remarking, that it is only just and equitable that ifa teacher is guilty ofany immoral conduct, or continues to neg- lect his duty, that the trustees may have it in their power to discharge him, yet not Without reniunerating him for his time.
