But leaving this aspect of the question out of view. I contend that no private or select school can afford such advantages, cither in instruction or discipline, as a high school. This follows as an obvious result of thc.prin- ciple known among polical economists by the term, tiiehiou of lubvr. ■ A high school or college is conducted by a faculty of teachers, each having his special and appropriate department. It stands to reason that each will become more adept in guiding pupils through the studies of his de partment, than if his labor and attention were diffused over several departments.

The Xationnl Inttlligcnrtr of the 4tli inst., states that the president is now engaged in preparing his forthcoming message, and until it is completed, few. if any. panlons will he granted. The naval academy has been removed back then a bureau, then a dozen of chairs, Ac. Ac. And yet just such diversified work as this docs the teacher of a select school at tempt to do. He lias classes in spelling, in reading, in writing, in geography, in gram mar, arithmetic, history, philosophy, rhetoric, composition, and perhaps Latin, Greek, and French besides. Can a man thus attain the highest skill in his profession t Look, for instance, at the male schools about JIacon. If I mistake not, there are five or six teachers of hoys’ schools in and around this city. Each of them is a very respectable teacher, and has a school of some 25 to 40 boys. In this number there will probably he three or four spelling classes three or four reading classes, one or two classes in geography, as many in grammar, three or four in arithmetic, at least one in al gebra, two or three in Latin, one in Greek, one in history, one in aatural philosophy, one in chemistry and one in geometry. It is usual to find all these classes in a city or vil lage school of from 30 to 40 scholars. Now, what one man, be he ever so accomplished, skilful and industrious, can do justice to so many classes, each claiming to be heard and taught at least once in every two days, the greiter part once every dny ? It is manifest ly impossible. But suppose now that these five schools were united into one high school, numbering at least one hundred and fifty students, and these same five teachers were combined into a faculty or board of instruction. There would not be any greater variety of studies, or number of classes in the one high school than is now found in each of the private schools. But the »ize of each classWould he tripled or quadrupled, and that would be a great advantage in itself. Tlie emulation generated in a large class, and the infection of the spirit of study, arc tlie most effectual stimulants to students, and save the teacher a vast deal of trouble in the way of remon strance. punishment, etc. Then the quality of the instruction is improved. One teacher takes charge of the classes in spelling, and grammar; another of those in arithmetic, algebra, and geometry: another of geography, history and perhaps reading; another in tlie ancient languages; and another in tlie physical sciences. Who does not see that in a year or two each teacher becomes peculiarly skilled in his special branch i—better able to lead classes on successfully in that department than he would bo by twenty years experience in the other way! Why i Because not merely docs he devote more time to that par ticular branch, bnt because he concentrates his mind upon it: it become? his study how to teach that particular branch.’and his am bition to cxccll in it! Under such instruc tion, with the guidance of such teachers, the students would make progress thrice as rapid and thrice as thorough ns in the plan of pri vate schools, and that at no greater expense. So obvious are all the advantages afforded by the high school system that I wonder that Macon has so long permitted herself to lie without one for her boys and young men. All the great cities have such schools by the score, anil in hundreds of smaller towns they have been tried with universal success. Tlie absence of a /male high school in Ma con is the more remarkable from the fact that for many years this city has had before it the notable instance of the Wesleyan Female Col lege, whose success is due almost wholly to this principle. It is no wonder that that in stitution enjoys a wide spread reputation for thoroughness in teaching, when her system requires the’eonstant labors of five or six ex' pericnccd teachers to carryTier classes through Four arrests were made last night for pass ing counterfeit ten dollars on the bank of Connecticut Washington, Nov. 9.—A special to the -- —- ■ Th" ' - •’ Timet says: The joint commission for the settlement of claims between the Uuited States nnd the government of Columbia met yesterday.
