We lament lilt; fact that we were unable to tender communications for i this column during the past month | but it was on tlio account of absccnec Irom home—Having been on a visit to our native state, South Carolina. In the meantime we fully expected that fOinf (f out brothers in the profession, would make a contribution but we have no reason to think so af ter reflecting upon the' just. As yet no one seems inclined to aid us but it takes more than that to discourage us tlicrefo' c we move on in our usual way. He as fair and candid in your criti cism of your fellow teachers as you want them to he in their criticisms of you, for they criticise you as much as you do them. Why lavish your affection on that good boy in your school? He doesn’t need it. It’s that bad hov that needs your love; give it to him unstintedly. Your love may win him to a bright manhood. Happy and strong is that teacher,! who, in these days of fads and new tangled method ana devices, has a vein of conservatism running through iier mental make-up. A safe rule to lollow these days, when innovation arc Dressing close upon the teaclnr, is, “Be not the first by whom the new aro tried, nt r yet the last to lay the old aside.” * DICTATION KXKRCISKS. 1.

Knavery is the most laborious trade. Learning makes a man tit company for himself. Modesty is a guard to virtue. Not to hear conscience is the way to silence it.
