is of a sort of slate rock set up edgeways,
but these hills of white quartz rock is scat-
tered here and ' there all through the gold

of the miners generally that the gold is now
deposited in immense quantities in these
hills of white solid rock. "" * ”“ *
If The weather, at this writing, still con-
tinues wet, cold, and ungenial. The succes-
sive heavy rains that have fallen have proved
somewhat destructive alongtlie water courses,
and left our 1'oads in a bad condition. The
rain has brought forward the grass, and the
earth has put on her livery of green; the
trees, however, can hardly be said to have as-
sumed this aspect, and crops, and vegetation
generally, are at least a fortiiight behind.
The early-blooming ,_pcacli, and other fruit-
trees, asa general thing, so far as our travels
have extended, promise abundantly.
Connmoii Schools.
VVithin the last few years, great changes
have been taking place in our Common
Schools, This must be attributed to a deep
feeling of interest, on the part of the public,
in regard to the importance of Common
‘School education, and, as a natural result, a
liberal pecuniary reward to the teacher as
only the just equivalent of his services in
that vocation. But what has been done is
only a prelude to what, in‘ the order of time
and the course of things, as exhibited in the
recent efforts in the Legislature, and the
universal tendency of public opinion in fa-
vor of the subject, must constitute a more
-splendid sequel in the history of education
than any mere experience of ours would;
until more recently, in matters of this nature,
justify us in anticipating. Our Common
schools are: destincd- to rise higher and
higher, until nothing shall intervene be-
tween them and the College. The great
stepping-stones of their advancement lie be-
fore the teachers encouraged by popular
opinion. Individuals should not be called
upon to teach unless they are Imown to pos-
sess all the competent qualifications neces-
sary to success in such a vocation or calling.
That they have a call, an inrwa.7‘(l and /tecw'l-
fell desire, which,as the deep cry of their
souls, they are driven by the urgent laws
of moral necessity to answer, is known by
the kind or quality of what they teach , that
is the call. Success in teaching does not
pertainto the gift of those who only make it
their business from mere pecuniary motives,
or who are apt to consider it as being of
minor importance in -comparison with other
professions into which they might intend to
enter from this. Let him who engages in
this profession, first know cnoztglt to (each and
Iiow to teach; then, let him win the ‘lore of his
pupil, and awaken in him an earnestdesire of
knowledge—-earnest as worship; otherwise,
all his efforts must end in failure. He should
be a constant corrector of his deportmcnt to
all——should study the best methods of teacli-
ing——shoul<l make a careful study of the dis-
positions of his pupils, and should impart in-
struction and administer.punisliment accord-
ingly, practising upon the experience of other
teachers, as becomes a member of the 'I‘eacli-
ers’ Association ; in a word, he should avail
himself of‘ all that his time and strength
can furnish. But, with all this, the teacher
must have the right kind of patronage from
the public, or nothing will be accomplished.
He must be suitably recompenscd for his
labor, and, in so doing, the public will ap-
preciate his merits as a teacher, after a can-
did and critical examination of his system, and
comparison with other systcins, considering
the circumstances and difficulties, and cost
of effort attending the adoption of the re-
spective systems. The community in gener-
al are able to contribute to the profit and
pleasure of teacher and pupil, as well as
to the reputation of the school, by enter-
taining and exhibiting a profound respect
toward the Common School, which is, or,
"ought to be, as fertile a field for the intel-
lectual culture of the young as schools of
higher pretensions, in spite of the apparent-
ly undignifiedposition to which the name
of common might seem to entitle it; where-
as the dignity and propriety of such a desig-
nation is enhanced, the moment we discover
its origin in the Latin language, where we
find the adjective communis, signifying com-
mon, and having the same radical value
as the word coinmunity.
The objection with many that would
otherwise send their children to the Com-
_mon School is, that there are not convenient
‘accommodations, or that the school is not
spacious enough, considering the number of
pupils crowded into it. Let this matter be
-properly adjusted, and it will be ‘found
that the most sensible portion of those who
now withhold their children, would then send
them to the public §chools, and, in so doing,
make them more_ deservedly popular, and
find them, to use the words of the Hon.
HENRY BARNARD, “ Not only cheap enough
for all, but good enough for all." I call
upon my brother-teachers for unitary and
collective effort in the reformation of our
Common Schools. Let us take for our stan-
dard the public schools of Hartford and New
Haven, and if our schools cannot rise to an
equal footing with them in the strife of coin-
petition, let it not be our oivn fault. As
an example of indefatigable labor and
perseverance, let us imitate our State Super-
intendant of Schools, the Hon. Mr. Barnard,
who is truly worthy the titles of _ Leader
