The uestions are usually printed or written, some- we are sorry to say, in a very und:finable “handwrite” very wide of Spencerian legibility. ‘The time heretofore occupied by the pupils in writing their ideas of the proper answers to the questions has been from urs, and usually about one half We @uswers, even when within range of the pupil's know! edge, are either slighted, vaguely constructed, or omittedentirely. Sometimes the youngsters. appalled at the amount of mere mechanical labor involved in the writing out of so many ‘cary pages of toolscap at one long, monoton- ous, and gloomy sitting, pick up their hats and retire from the field, leaving very often the contest to fingers having the greatest amount of hysical endurance, aud to having the cast amount of brans. We recollect a case in peint: one Of these examinations the pupils were started on this atyle of “dead heat" at 3 o'clock on a hot summex » (owing to some mishap of the committee the boys did not begin tll four,) when they were handed their €atalogue of queries. They wrote, and wrote, amd wrote on, till supper time eame. About that time, a few having * no stomach’’ for such Work as that before m, retired to the more agreeable quarters of the tea table.

The squad of twenty com- petitors bad now, at one o’clock on the morning Of the nezt day, dwindled down to three, who determine? to write on; and eine success al youngster was one had the Pbysical_and salamander qualifications of one of Herring's burglar and fire-proof safes. ‘The committee decided this young gentleman to be the ‘most meritorious pupil,” and we think he was, at least on that occasion, though it might be surmised that he owed his success more to the fact that he had cultivated “physics” in a “first nine” of base ball players than to any «midnight oil” he consumed in studying his text books. No donbt the “committee” on this occasion, a8 on some others, unwittingly de- feated their own purpose to tind the pupil intel- lectually “‘the most meritorious.” What chance would some excitable and nervous Tittle Oliver ‘Twist have had in a bull-headed contest like that? What chance wonld he have had if he asked “for more” time, sleep, or supper, from such a “Bumble” committee.
