SERB OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. Te Advertisers.—Our advertising patrons are requested to send im their favors before 12 o'clock m., as advertisements received later cannot be msured an msertion in TEE Stam of the same day, on account of the pressure of news matter after that hour ‘With every disposition to accommodate, we find ourselves obliged to lay down this rule @nd adhere to it. In addition to the many other objections that exist against the system of prizes in schools And colleges, is the fact that it almost eatirely | fails to accomplish the object intended. Tue | design for prizes for scholarship is to stimulate | the pupils generally. and raise the standard of Spplication, industry, entire classes and schools. The practical effect Bowever is confined to but few, and these few are those very pupils, who do not need any such incitements, and are usuxlly injured rather than benefitted by them. When it is an- nounced to a class that a prize is to be given to the one who shall make the most nearly per- fect recitations, or shall pass the best examina- tion, a large part of the class at once say to themselves that they cannot possibly succeed, aad that it would be of no more use for them to try than to attempt a journey to the moon, and ‘80 refuse to enter the list; the indolent and un- Ambitious. although they are couscious ef | Iatent power and feel that they might stand a | good chance of succeeding if they would only | make continued and persistent effort, even when they commence the contest, soon fall out by the way, and before loag the strife is ‘arrowed down toa very few, aad usually to | BO more than two or three. When several prizes are offered, the number of competitors is greater, because there are studious and as} ing pupils, who would study closer and striv. barder for the sgke of distinction, but such are Bot the ones who need the stimulus, and the | rank and file are not affected. This reasoning | applies in most cases. It applies where pre- miums are offered for proficiency in ali branches, in mathematics, composition, or dec- lamation. But penmanship affords an excap- tion. Here the weak stand an equal chance th the strong. Im this branch prizes are usually awarded for the greatest improvement, aud not for the highest excellence, and, comse- quently, the poorest penman has even a better Prospect of winming than the best, because there a8 the most room for improvement in Ris case. if a corresponding system could be applied to other branches, the obyection under consid. eration would be removed, im @ great degree. But tbis never bas been done, and is probably Utterly impracticable. A single honest speci- | menef penmansh:p at the commencement of a course of lessons, and another at its close, far- | nish dats for a comparatively easy decision as to improvement. Such, however, is not the ease i other branches. A pupil at commenc- | ig geometry, for instance, knows nothiag adout it. It would ve impossible to decide from specimens, wRich one of a school of fitty | Pupils bad made the most progress in compo- sition during a year.
