HOT-HOUSE EDUCATION.

We do not purpose quarreling

with our present system of cdnI cation; for we think iti n . a fair

"Railrna.fl Timfi-Tahlftl. hy of Pr6re8a towards perfection

. - - , , ... under the management of one of '&TVXt!J;tm 9uii the bc8t (ifnome be3t) Superin-

icauenta our scnoois in tue city have ever been blessed with ..." By-and-bye, our schools will emerge

from tbe Hot-Houso plan-; forced

growth into a nioro practical,

I hardy and vigorous crop of minds than have ever yet been harvested,

so that even our 'old Fogy correspondent, who was a looker-on at the last 'commencement,' will be pleased to note the improvement and feel that our system of educa

tion was indeed drawing nearer to I what it should be. "

How it Seemed to an "Old Fogy' By invitation of the Superintendent, I was present to ' see and hear at the close of. school terra, or what is very inappropriately termed tbe 'Commencement Exercises,' when four pupils should 'graduate' from the Richmond High School. It had been thirty years since I wielded a liUie briof authority in a Public School; so this was a novelity, and, I wanted to see the vast improvement claim ed by the modern Savans, to sec if the- increased pay -increased facilities, &c; &c. showed proper returns.

so I think it waj called 'Mornino

Prayer,' but the big machine called

a piano put in not only ao ap

good sound destroyed sense, bnt

I suppose the music' was . good.

A standing prayer followed, well

executed and I thought quite" nji

hear his voice. Then followed 1st Essay. could not hear much of

it to be something abont work and

of the age of 'How not to do it.

2d Essay Could . only hear

snatches of it parts of sentences

dec, from which I concluded it

was something about the knowl

edge of the senses. One sentence I think I heard was that 'Sound

effects us more than sense,' which I thought a sound maxim and quite appropriate to the occasion. The

position of the reader was bad head down chin too low, &c The Essay was no doubt good, j 3rd Essay, young lady the same stiff bow, or may7be it was a curtesy her enunciation was some better heard at ..intervals only subj ect seem ed good heard
