Jonathan adopts the cué, and the New York .World, once a very respecn).:; ‘paper not lending itself to falsehood, foole or Fenianism, hears all this, and forthwith cooks up the following «*cockâ€"andâ€"bull". storyâ€"** About two years ago a Fenian assoâ€" ciation was formed in Lower Canada, called the Fils de la Liberteâ€"or Soms of Liberty. Many of the most prominent men of the Proâ€" vince joined the order}; and at one time Sir E. P Tache and D‘Arcy McGee were eon; nected with it. _ The Président of the order i Mr. Cadien, _ His followers are nurmbered l;: the thousand, and are enrolled as an army.

T sands, nay millions in the United States, who pen their fuith to the gensation journals of New York, and who, having neither opportuâ€" | hity nor inclination toâ€" be undeceived in & ‘falsechood that flatters |the national weakness, will accept this as an indubitable fact. But the evil which we mostly ‘deplore is the effect which these lying but bold .asser. tions are calculated to produce in commuâ€" nities guch as those umnd by Mr. Bright," Mr. Goldwin Smith, and other demagogues. ‘These portions of the mposac of England are, we regret to say, y , predisposed to receive the poison ; they are in a sufficient state of inflaimation to be susceptible to its baneful influence; they stop not to a«k if the fact exists as it is represented, they see it in widely circulating journals, they hear of Fenian troubles at home: and they have no doubt of the numbers of the disaffected or of the iniquity of a government their great aposâ€" tles are daily caluminiating. In Canads& we, are at a loss to learn the truth. We hear and know of contemptible factions such as Fenians and Sons of Liberty. Who, and what‘ the Fenians are there is no necessity to exâ€" plain ; but of these Fils de la Liberte we may briefly say they are open and avowed republiâ€" cans, and covert enemies of England and all that is of her.. Their hatred of British instiâ€" tutions and British domination is implacable and fixed; antd no measure of toleration, no amount of generous forbearance, no liberality of concession or fraternization could ever overcome the hostility they bear that nation to which their own owes so much. Rouge Republicanism is of too fiendish a character to engender aught else than selfishness or to nurture a more noble sentiment than malice and undying hatred to Englaz.d and her domiâ€" nation in Canada. > > Poues Covat. â€"William Welsh, the indiâ€" vidual who was brought up for ill using his wife the other play, did not file his appearance yesterday morning.

The long vacation ensuing no action was taken by the committee until this morning, when,at a meeting of the above mentioned, the subject was discussed, and a determination arrived at to memorializeâ€"the: Counci] of Public Instruction in order to draw attention to the necessity,of some change in the minimhm qualification for the Common School Tegchers‘ Certificate, â€" On consideraâ€" tion, however, it seemed toâ€"the committee only courtedus to communicate their views,in the first place, to. yourself; feeling ‘assured that, your extensive practical experience in the orâ€" ganization of the Common School system, combined with your wellâ€"known anxiety to perfect that organization, could afford . us adâ€" vice that would prove of inestimable advantage in effecting the desiredâ€"result. _ * 1st. | We would call your attention to the close resemblance of the minimum tandard for certificate to that required for admission to the Grammar Schools of the countryâ€"; a miniâ€" mum, we may add, which allows of considerâ€" able latigude to County Boards of Ekamination: and of which, as is patent to every one, adâ€" van-gl:’ is too frequently taken. 3 2ng.. ‘A comparison of the order and classi ficatjon of studies prescribed for the C,.Sehools of Upper Canada, "as adopted by the Council of Public Instuction, on the 31st day of Deâ€" cember, 1858," with the requirements for the Teachers‘ ecrtificate will show that he is exâ€" pected to tcach more than he is required to knowâ€"or, evenâ€"limiting the holder of a 3rd tlass certificate to the work of the lowest diviâ€" bior:\fl;lly about as much as he passes in ; ;2::‘{ narrowing down the educational stanâ€" of each locality to that of the Teacher ‘esmploped. < > . © > 5 inlog uc 3rd.| â€" It is well understood that under cover of the latitude allowed: by the Regulations, some County Boards further subdivide their certificates by giving three kinds in cach class â€"â€"tengble for one,. two, or three years. 4th. In the requirements for a Grammar School Teacher‘s certificate there is no corresâ€" ponding classification ; and consistency seems to demand that there should be no discrepancy of procedure in a system of education which is intended to be uniform in its structure, as well as progressive in its operations, all over the country. s # . .Under these circumstances the committee, in common with the other members of the Inâ€" stitute, are strongly of opinion that some change is necessaryâ€"for, with the present low standard of qualification an opening is afforded to persons who have no intention of, devoting themselvés energetically to their duties as inâ€" structors of the young, {ut merely use this as the means of obtaining temporary employâ€" ment until they can better themselves in some other sphere of occupation.. â€" Such persons can of course tender their services at a low raty of compensation ; and Boards: of Trustees are presented with a temptation to engage an inâ€" ferior class of Teachers, to the great detriment of the more deserving. An‘unsettled state of things is, moreover, in this way countenanded, and a grievous injustice done to those Teachâ€" eré who take.up their profession from choiceâ€" u‘:d ‘nirith an intention to acopt it for life ; and who, in consequence, take pains to qualify Thexfscites" for the highost cortificater often not contenting themselves with even that qualification, but endeavouring by every means in their power to prove most efficient Teachers. * y .
