Curiosity prompts us to note with an inquiring eye, the exact measurement of things. To note with exactness the sizes, the dimensions, the proportions and weignts of things as the work of eurosity may in the eyes of some, appear a small matter but it is nevertheless a great prerequsite towards progress in pure knowledge. â€" Hence accurâ€" ate and minute measurement seems to the nonscientific imagination a less lefty and dignifiedl work than looking for some. thing new. But nearly all the grandâ€" est discoveries of science bave been but the reward of accurate measurement ard paâ€" tient long continued labour in the minute sifting of numerical results. The popular idea of Newton‘s grandest discovery is that the theory of gravitation flashed into the mind and so the discovery was made. It was by a long train of mathematical ealenâ€". lation,found on results accamulated through prodigious toil of practical astronomers, that Newton first demonstrated the foree urging the planets towards the sun, deterâ€" mined the magnitude of those forces, and discovered that a force following the sam® !aw of variation with distance urges the moon towards the earth. Then first, we may suppose, came to him the idea of uniâ€" versal gravitation ; but when he attempted to compare the magnitude of the foree of gravitation of a heayy body of eqnal mauss at the earth‘s surface, he did not find the agreoment which the law he was discoyerâ€" ing required. Notfor a year after would he publish his discovery as made. It is reâ€" counted that, being present at a meeting of the Royal Society, he heard a paper read, loscvibing geodesic measurement by Picard, which lead to serious corrections of the provious cctimate of the earth‘s .4““_ This was what Newton required. He went homs with the resuit, end câ€"mmenced u.' them. â€" Haubitrated thus to deal with faces l we do nit theorise with absolute certainty, \but wait for new light upon what we do not know ; and evertually we are able to reconâ€" cile theory with fact. Many on the conâ€" trary, assume that they know everything, and accordicgly construe facts in aceord with their own ideas. Henee, the difficulty which many scientific, andindeed uncientiâ€" fic, men, find in reconciling their facts with their theories, not to speak. of the rcadiâ€" ness which they show in some cases to saâ€" crifice and ignore the facts if they may but be allowed to preserve their previous concepâ€" tions untouched. Eome people might, perâ€" haps, feel disf osed to say "so much the worse for the facts ;" and, no doubt, facts ccasionally suffer when brought into conâ€" tact with theory, since ‘the facts do not beâ€" long to us, whilst the theories do, and there is a natural tendency in the human mind to attoch a higher value to that which is our own than to that which at best is the possessâ€" ion of the entire hamin #ace, if, indeed, it can be said that mankind has any right of property in such matlcrs, In the long run, however, the facts may pretty safely be left to themselyes; ard though, for a time, science may try and square its facts to its th.eories, there is sure . to come a ra-‘ rction in the end, and imagination has ulâ€" } timately to give way before the unchanging front of truth. | _ 1. Curiosity prompts us to inquire into the significaney of facts. We are lead by curiosity to serutinise facts m order to deâ€" | termine their intrinsic value and to view ' them in every light and under every aspect liu order to leain their relative bearing. This is essential to the requisition of pure knowledge and we cannot otherwise acâ€" quire it. Curiosity thus performs imporâ€" tunt functions in the interests of truth ; but Lere are others of equal moment conseâ€" juent tpon the proper calture of it in our earâ€" y vears. â€" T{ it is then fostered and directed wight, we will from our spirit of inquiry, have ecrtracted labits of thought antagonâ€" istic to evolving facts out of our moral conâ€" sciousuess, and to forming theories thereâ€" n ; habits of thought antagonistic to putâ€" ting in fucts what does not belong to them, r taki gout of fiets what is not in them ; hub‘ts of thought "aniagonitie to a conâ€" structive sonse of frets, when those facts we facts of which we know nothing,» and require us to wait until light is cast upon them. â€" Haubitrated thus to deal with fxwls! we do rct theorise with absoluto certainty, en ; habits of t ting in fucts wl or taki s out o spirit of inquiry which is the handâ€"maiden to art and science, and the foster mother of philisophy and metaphysies, while we entice them to choose things, and to engage in parsuits worthy of them as rational beings. Many indeed are the arguments that may be used in fay or ofencouraging enriosâ€" ity in children as a great factor in intellectâ€" ual improvement, in their subsequent as well as in their present career; but we conâ€". {ine our attention to three of them as sufticiâ€" ent to estallish our position with conclusâ€" l ive force. Curiosity is, in the proper sense of the term, that disposition of the mind, which leads the subject of it to inquire into the nature of things. Curiosity in children is but an appetite afterfknowledge. I doubt not but one great reason why many childâ€" ren abandon themselves wholly to silly sports,and trife c way all their time insipidly, is because they found their curosity balked, and their inquiries neglected. If we check curiosity in children, we do them a great intellectual wrongâ€"we repress in them the spirit of inquiry, and induce in them the spirit of indifference to the acduisition of knowledge, while we necessitate them to seck trivial things and to follow raean purâ€" suits. If we, on the contrary, encourage curiosity in children we do them a great inâ€" | tellectual goodâ€"we cherish in them the ‘ The Culture of Curiosity in Children.

Curiosity prompts us to note with enâ€" Y ' quiring eye the nice relations among things. ’f, In this respect as thus set forth by a writer, * | "Grent service has been done to science by " | the British Association in promoting acâ€" * / curate measurement in various subjects. t | The origin of exact science in terrestial ~| magnetism is traceable to Gauss‘s inventâ€" ~{ion of methods finding the magnetic intenâ€" 4 , sity in absolute measure.I have spoken of the \| great work done by the British Assoctation | in carrying out the application of this inâ€" | vention in all parts of the world. Gaugs‘s colleague in the German Magnetic Union | (Webber) extended to the practice of absoâ€" |lute measarement to electric eurrents, |the resistence of an electric conductor, and |the electromotive force of a galvanme ele-f "I'ment. He showed the relation between. | electrostatic and electromagnetic units for | absolute measurement, and made the beanâ€" | tiful discovery that resistence, in alsolute electromagnetic measure, and the reciprocal | | of resistance, or, as we call it, "conducting ‘ power," in electrostatic measure, are each of them a velocity. fe made an elaborate | difficult series of experiments to measure the velocity which is equal to the conductâ€" | ing power, in eloctrostatic measure, and at| the same time to the risistence in electroâ€"| magnetic measure, in one and the same | eonductor. ,.Mnxwell, in making the fir:t' 'ad\'m)ce along a road of which Faraday l lwu the pioncer, discovered that this velâ€" | oeity is physically related to the velocity ofl light, and that on certain hypothesis regardâ€" | | ing the elastic medium concerned, it may | { be exactly equal to the velocity of light.| i Weber‘s measurement verifies nppm\ixu-' i ately this equality, and stands in science | | monumentum «re perennius, celebrated as t having suggested this most grand | theory, | and as having afforded the first quantitative | test of the recondite properties of matter | ‘o.x which _ the relations between electriâ€" | | city and light depend. A remeasurement | } of Webor‘s critical velocity on a new plan, ’ |by Maxwell himself, and the important } jcm’roction of the velocity of light by Fouâ€" | eaul*‘s laboratory experiments, verified ‘ by ‘ astronomical ol:â€"servation, seem to show a still closer agreement. The most aceurate ’ possible determimation of Weber‘s critical ) velocity is just now a primary ol.jeet of the | | Association‘s Committee on Electric Meaâ€"| ' surement; and it is at present premature to : speculate as to the closencss of the agreeâ€" | ment between that velocity and the velocity of light. This leads me to remark how l much science, even in its most lofty speenâ€" lations, gains in return for benefits conferred ’ by its application to promote the social and | material welfare of man. Those who perilâ€" led and lost their money in the original Atlantic telegraph were impelled and supâ€" ‘ ported by a sense of the grandeur of their enterprise, and of the worldâ€"wide benefits \lwhich must flow from its succees ; they 1 were as the same time not unmoved by the beauty of tha scrientific problerma directly presented to them ; but they little thought that it was immediately, through their | work, that the scientific world was to be instructed in a lovg neglected and discreditâ€" ed fandamental electric discovery by Farâ€" aday‘s ; or that, again, when the assistance of the British Association was invoked to supply their electricians withmethods for absolute measurement (which they found ; necessary to secure the best economical reâ€" | turn for their expenditure, and to obviate ‘ and detect those taults in their electric l material which had lead to disaster,) they ‘ were Iaying the foundation for aceurate ‘ electric measurement in every scientific laâ€" ‘ boratory in the world, and initiating a train of investigation which now sends up branchâ€" F es into the loftiest regions and subtlest | ether of natural philosoppy. Long may the British Association continue a bond of unâ€" ] ion, and a medium for the interchange of | good oflices between science and the world !" ] 'I'hpl. Pratt, of Dereham, had 21 sheep calenlations, but felt so much agitated that he handed over the arithmetical work to a friend, then (and not when, sitting in a garden, he saw an apple fall,) did he ascerâ€" tain that gravitation keeps the moon in her orbit. Faraday‘s dissovery of specific inâ€" ducive capacity, which inaugurated the new philisophy, tending to discard action at a distance,was the result of minute and acâ€" curate measurement . of electric fore»s. Joule‘s discovery of thermoâ€"dynamic law through the regions of electro chemesâ€" try, electroâ€"magnetism, and elasticity of gases, was based on the delicacy of therâ€" mometry which seemed simply impossille to some of the most distinguished chemists of the day. â€" Andrews‘ discovery of the conâ€" tinuity between the gaseous and liquid state was worked out by many years of laâ€" borious and minute measurement of phenoâ€" mena scarcely sensible to the naked eye. es s omcs c rveenntai m dn ooi tC y sns d in a@++ The Wardan explained with reference to the settlement with Melancthon and Shelâ€" burne that it was narrived at against his wishes. It was first arranged that they Mr. MeKechnic introduced byâ€"law to levy the rate on Byâ€"law 174, which was put through its reveral stages. Mr. McKechnie presented report of Fi-‘l nance Cominittee,which recommended that | the Court House keeper‘s salary be raised | to $150, and also that the report of commitâ€" tee on settlement with Melancthon and | Shelburne be adopted. | The Council went into committee of the whole on the report of Finance Committee, Mr. Myles in the chair.

And these were mostly in the 1 advanced and expensive classes, fitting | themselves to become teachers. Simeo« | gave over $4000 to High Schools, while we | only gave $950 to ours. On the second clause of the report,which recommended that the Treasurer make no payments unless by order from the Comneil or nuthorized by statute, it was made fuller by amendment of the Warden. Mesers. Blyth, McGirr, Hall and Camerâ€" on also spoke in favor of, and Mr. MecColâ€" man against the grant. The vote was then put, and the clause carried. The Warden also spoke strongly in favor of the grant. It was the ouly High School, and he believed in supporting our own county institutions. Our teachers were edâ€" ucated at it, aad its influence radiated through the whole county. _ He agreed with Mr. Myles that the poor got the Lenefit of it as well as the rich; and hbe was proud of the fact that no fees were chargedâ€"so that education was free to all. Farmers should be glad of the privilege afforded their sons to be fitted for the most prominâ€" ent positions. â€" He would support the grant cheerfully. Mr. Myles did not agree that it was the rich who sent their children to the school. Rich people send their cluldren awny to a distance to get educatedâ€"not that they got any better education, but it sounded well to say they wore off in distant places comâ€" pleting their education. On the contrary, the poor who could not send their children to such a distance sent them to the home school, and it was a boon to them that no fees were charged. HMe knew young men, now successful teachers, who wou!ld not have been able to pay fees. Ie thought it would be a small thing, when the county used the school to such an extent, to deny this small grant. Messrs. Sing and MceColman agreed witl Mr. Korr. Mr. Kerr srid he adwmired the enterprise of the people of Owen Sound in erecting such a fine school house; but he believed in the people who sent their children there paying. I(a grant was given from the county, it would be the poor paying to eduâ€" cate the children of the rich. Mr,. Maclae looked upon the High School as a county iustitution, and would support the grant. Mr. Kennedy said the amount was so small that he did not thizk any one would object to giving it. Divided amongst the municipalities, it only made $5 for Saraâ€" wak, $17 for Keppel, $21 for Holland, and others in proportion, or brought down to the individual it was only 4¢. on the $1000 of assessment. Mr. Fox said that the school was for the benefit of cutside municipalities as well as Owen Sound. 82 of the pupils, or nearly half the school, were from the townships,a follows : Sydenham 15, Keopel 6, Sarava‘ The repoit recommended an additional grant of $500 to the Owen Sound High tehool. The Council then went into committee on the report of Education Committee, Mr. Campbell in the Chair, Mr. McKeehnie, presenied report of Edâ€" uecation Committee, on which it wasresolvâ€" ed to go into Committee, when the Council adjourned till 7 p. m.
