The distribution of diplomas and prizes, as we have already stated, took place at this school on Thursday last ; the Hon.the Chief Superintendent of Education for Lower Canada in the Chair.On the plsUorm beside him were the Anglican Lord Bishop of Montreal, Hon.Mr.Justice Day, Principal Dawson, and Professors Hicks and Rooins.A large and respectable audience filled the large room.The proceedings were opened with prayer by the Bishop.The Honourable P.J.o.CHAUVËÂÜ, Chief Superintendent of Education, said that it was now not quite two years since that Institution and two others of a similar nature had been opened.For a consinerabie period previous to that there had been an earnest cry in the country for the establishment of Normal Schools, and it had been a matter of ,oag consideration for the Government of tne titne being, whether one or more of those Institutions should be put in operation ; for his own part he should have been disposed to stand oilt % one, but he had not tillcwcd !'iJ \u2022 £ __ _ V public,\u2014you may have to endure thankless toil for scanty pay,\u2014yon may have to do with those who give yon all the labour and take all the credit to themselves,\u2014you may find yourselves neglected\t\u2022 nies of gaiety and faenion.All this, and more the useful and laborious in this world, are sure more or less to endure.But these evils are not to he met by forward self-assertion, or sullen bitterness of heart ; yon must seek, by God\u2019s grace, to attain to a spirit of active, patient, hopeful continuance in weil-dmng to the utmost of your ability.By this alone you will outlive and rise above ail these petty\u2019hindrances ; and let these diplomas ever be associated in your minds with this principle of action.I part with you now with the most earnest good wishes, and it is due to yon to say that your excellent conduct here, and ardent application to the studies set before you; have made ail that I have had to do in connection with this school a pleasure rather than a toil.The Principal then read the list of students entitled to diplomas, as follows :\u2014 I\t\u2014Modkl School Diplomas\u2014In the order of the relative

in being permitted to address such a large au-ience on the occasion.It affords my fellow-students and myself the highest gratification to see so many friends of education present, to witness the result of our session\u2019s study.The occasion which brings us together needs no explanation.Many of us have only been known to each other for the last ten months ; but some of ns date our acquaintance since the opening of this institutioc.We are now about to separate for other scenes and acquaintances, perhaps to break for ever the bonds of intimacy that connect us with each other, and with those whom we leave behind us.It has been truly said that \u201c life is a stage, and we are actors on it.\u201d As truly has it been said that \u201c all things are changing here.\u201d As the scene on a stage is ever shifting, and new actors appear, so the scene of human action is ever varying.In no place are the ever-changing scenes of human life more apparent than in the School-room.Here the various stages cf life are portrayed in all their truthfulness.Here the various buds of infancy are seen in all their beauty and purity, expanding into the healthy and developing vigour of youth.And here youth itself is eeen maturing into the intelligence, intellectuality and magnanimity of manhood\u2014inspired with a never satisfied desire for progress.The School rooms are the nursery ot the nation.Where are we to look for our future Miltons and bhakc\u2019 speares, our Macaulays and Humes, our Welting-.fonsand Washingtons, if not to the School-room and bails of learning ?Here the character of individuals is formed, who are to take a high standard in their country\u2019s progress or doom.Hera the latent traits of disposition are brought to light, and philanthropy, humility and love of science, may be so cultivated as to form a Howard, a Franklin, or a Kane.But here also may selfishness, ambition, and love of power be so fostered that an Alexander or a Napoleon may be the result.Let parents then think when they send their children to school, that it is an act over which a cloud futurity rests.It is a solemn step to give their dearest earthly treasure to the charge of another, to one who takes their place and tor the time being, whose influence is second only to their own.May we not then he pardoned in emulating the office of a teacher ; if of so great importance as isassurmd, it must be one of merit and responsibility.It is one that should not be looked at in the same light as other professions for several reasons.As to the materais which the teacher has to work with, these are the undeveloped minds of the children, which he has to impress with the truths that will never be forgotten.Fie has to draw out the latent faculties that will render credit to himself and to his country.He ii thereby fulfilling the end for which the great parent has sent him into the world, that of doing good to his fellow creatures.The teacher is one of the few who have many ends to accomplish, many duties to fulfil, and many masters to serve.His aim Is the education of a child in order to fit him for a sphere of useful and iuteliectuai pursuits in this world, and to prepare him for the next.The teacher his to fulfil bis duty to God and to man.His duty to God consists in the conscientious d s-charge of the trust reposed in him ; for which he has the never failing rules laid down in the Bible.If ha perform bis duty to God, he is sure to perform it to man.But the duty that man requires of him is of a most intricate character, being encompassed by the frailties of human nature both in himself and others.His duty to the child must be faithfully, and exactly performed if he would secure peace of mind.And to perform these duties well he must necessarily make the seif-sacrificas which form no email portion of his lot, in love and resignation to his calling, such be his duties bow great are bis responsibilities.Such, my companions, is ihe scene of action we have chosen for ourselves.It is one from which happiness may be derived, of as substantial a quality as any on earth.It is a field yielding the flowers and sweets of life in abundance, but requiring a careful hand to cultivate, and a more careful to cull them.But it a place in our dearest memories- .We would acknowledge with gratitude the Obiirse of Lectures which we have received troîn Dr.Barber on Education.We V.e would wkh to return him\" our sincere thanks.And now we.would bid farewell to the McGili Normal School, its inmates and associations, but not farewell to its memories.Green shall thy iiiciii.r- ir- when we are scuriereii oyer (listsmt lands, when other ecenea a.ad other races meet onr gaze, the remembrance of the many happy days we have passed together, will ever remain in onr thoughts as a sweet souvenir of the past.When the blossoms of time have come thick upon us, when the dust and clouds of years shall have settled on the tablet of onr memory, a faint trace through all this will be visible of an inscription written upon It, in the McGill Normal School.When our eyes are bedimmed with age, and clouds of darkness settle over us, down in the recesses of our hearts we will preserve the sunny memories of our session here.Farewell, fellow-students may you have a \"lamp to your feet and a light to your path.\u201d Farewell Principal and Professors.May you run with patience the race that is sit before you, and receive the Crown of Life.A number of pieces of music were here and several times during the af ernoon played with great skill by the pupils.Several pieces were also woll sung.Professor HICKS said :\u2014The end of the second session of the McGill Normal School having arrived, I am glad of an opportunity of making a few remarks on the proceedings of the past year connected more especially with the subjects which come under my own cheating.These subjects range from the elementary branches of instruction, to as advanced an acquaintance with SngHsh Literature as the limited time will allow I believe from what I have seen, both hero and at home, that Elementary instruction is defective\u2014that teachers, in a number of instances, entirely regiectml of their duty, attempt, by a stropg covering, to hide defec's, which, because tbey;do not appear on the surface, are supposed to be never seen.The elementary teacher, by aiming at subjects which are supposed to be higher on the scale of attainment, only destroys ids own purpose, and by leading the parents to imagine that the solid parts of the child\u2019s education are finished, induces them the sooner to place their offspring elsewhere.The gres.t difficulty as regards education in England at the present lime, is the inability of teachers to keep the children at echooi after 12 years of age.Thousands are spent yearly on education by the Government, and yet the results are not what were expected.The elementary teacher, m order to raise his status, as he considered it, introduced into his school subjects which ought to have claimed riper years, the youthful scholar of 11 or 12 goes home with his slate covered with Grammatical Analysis, Geometry, and Natural Philosophy, and the admiring parent, unable to detect all the ignorante that lies under so dazzling a covering, fancies that his education is finished, and forthwith determines to send him out into the world.During the past session I have made the study of English Grammar and English composition the basis of the course.The study of English Literature is a delightful pursuit, Put he can never, relish who feels that he has not mastered its elementary principles.The teacher, living amid a population, the great majority of which can afford him no pleasure, as far as the sympathy with his tastes is con idered, will find a love of English literature the greatest blessing that he can possess.It opens the treasures of by-gone ages, enables him to hold converse with the greatest of earth, and this contact of mind with mind, just as it is with teacher and pupil, will benefit him to an extent not dreamed of by those who think little of the pursuit, because its results are not sufficiently apparent to gratify vanity or create admiration.In the study of English grammar we have no recognized standard, and from the class of pupils just about to leave us I find nearly one dozen different English grammais are used throughout the Province.1 have endeavoured, however, to make, this a benefit by leading them so far to master the subject, as to enable them in doubtful points to trust to their own conclusion in the matter.By this means strengthening their minds, and so to a great extent, doing away with the great defect of elementary teachers, that of trusting entirely to textbooks.In history the chief design has been to show the eonnection between sacred and secular, proving that all events in past ages tended to the development of the great scheme which the Almighty intended for man\u2019s good.In modern history, especially that of England, care has been t sken to show the gradual growth of the country in civilization\u2014the condition of its inhabitants at various periods\u2014and, indeed, as much as possible to make the history of the country a history of the people.As regards geography, we have given chief attention to the physical facts connected with the earth, without whi h geography is merely a list of unmeaning terms that escape from the memory as soon as communicated.But by classification and comparison, the various parts so apparently dissimilar form oue comprehensive whole which fixes itself deeply into the mind and lags a sure and certain foundation.Geography in past times was merely a dry list of names of towns\u2014numbers of inhabitants, &c.The influence of great rivers and mountain chains upon civilization\u2014the form and position of a country, on the earth\u2019s surface determining its standing iu the scale of nations\u2014 the effect of climate in modifying the pursuits, progress, literature, &c., of a nation.These and other kindred subjects were never brought before the expanding mind of youth, and yet the wonder was that a dislike to school and all connected with it should ex st.One series of my lectures has been devoted to a subject in which I have experienced great pleasure.I allude to the art of teaching.But still I have feit, as all must feel, that it is a most difficult one to handle \u2014from the very circumstance that, it has to do with some of the most delicate investigations of the intellect.The minor points, however, lave not in any way beA neglected, such as school organization, the expedients to be adopted to secure regular attendance, &c.These have been gone over carefully, knowing that success greatly depends upon them.I must not omit, however, to speak of that part of my duty which has reference to overlooking the students during the time they are in the Model Schools.This I have felt to be the first duty of the Normal School student.In England, twenty years ago, it was usual for students of Normal Schools to present themselves for training properly prepared, as regarded education for the post ; the time spent in the college being devoted entirely to learning the art of teaching and practising it in the Model Schools.We have departed from this rule in almost all training schools of the present day, from ihe fact that a larger number of teachers being required it was found that many presented themselves for that office who were found deficient in education and yet possessed of other essential qualities of the teacher.In conclusion, I should like to make a few remarks to the students, this being the iast occasiou on which I shall meet with many of them.My dear young triends,\u2014Although Ï must eonfess that I feel pleasure that the end of the session is arrived, after the hard work you have had to do, still there is one regret mixed up with it which is that most of you will be scattered over this great country perhaps never to meet, again in this world ; but you will, I trust, be doing a good work, the success of which depends especiiily upon attention to the two following points :\u2014 1.The importance of little matters in school keeping.2.Thedangerof expecting immediate results.I am the more anxious to do so because display is the grand order of the day, and school has its fashions as well as other things.By little things, I mean the appearance of the school room, the tidiness of objects and apparatus.Have everything in is place, and then you will have a place for everything.Personal appearance is of great importance to the teacher, as far as neatness is concerned.Cuitivate a courteous demeanour, be kind toali, and make no distinction.As far as immediate results are concerned, go on steadily in your work, recollecting that education is a slow but sure process, and never allow yourself to be discouraged if results do not seem to answer your expectations.And now, my dear friends, I bid you good bye.God be with you.But before doing so, 1 must not fail to mention the pleasure I have derived daring the session from the general conduct of the students.To me yon have been uniformly kind and respectful ; and 1 do not know how I can speak of the whole of the past year in higher terms than to say that it has been to me a summer\u2019s day.And now, trusting God will bless yon in your work, I bid you again good bye.Prof.ROBINS then rose, remaiking that he had but few things to say, and should say them briefly.He asked the public to remember that only about two-thirds of the time assigned to the complete Normal School course had elapsed since the opening of the institution, and that though himself satisfied with the results shown, not only in the public examinations, but in much more searching private examinations by which the attainments of the students had been tested during the past fortnight, he trusted the senior class would reach, in future sessions, when the full sessional period should be available, a higher standard of proficiency.It devolved upon him to make some observations upon the branches of education specially entrusted to his care.He considered that the importance of mathematical attainments had been somewhat underrated.Certainly, to many students this branch o; knowledge had but Httie attraction, as before they well began to taste its pleasures their books were cast aside for ever.Teachers, he wouldre-commend for varions special reasons to devote soma considerable portion ofi their time to the pursuit of mathematical science.He had previously pointed out to them all in the lectures on the Theory of Education which he had the privilege and pleasure to deliver, that there was much danger lest the teacher\u2019s intellect should grow belittled as a result of constant association with little minds ; but ia the severe and laborious investigations of abstract science, every intellectual power would be tasked and tried\" and gather strength in the trial.There was danger too, lest turning rapidly from one eubiect to auumer m tne aiscnargfe of the multifarious duties of the school-room, the teacher should gradually acquire habits of mental dissipation, and grow at length incapable of prolonged and concentrated thought.And by what means could this unfortunate tendency be as effectually counteracted as by mathematical pursuits, pre-eminent as they are above ail others for the closeness, abstraction, and concentration of thought which they demand ?There was great need too in the profession of the teacher for precision and dis-crimation of thought, and it was obvious that by pursuits such as those in consideration the intellectual powers would be sharpened and refined, as well as strengthed and intensified.Nor was mathematical science without altractions for its votaries.Not to mention the enjoyment which we can derive and the beauty we can discern in a train of refined reasoning, he would say that there was a sublime pleasure in penetrating beneath the surface of appearances, and grasping the few and severely simple laws by which the universe is controlled, and which have almost all, as far as they are fully comprehended, found expression in mathematicai formulas.in this act coming more nearly and intimately, into contract with the august and comprehending intellect that rules in all things.And further, though it might, to some, appear fanciful to associate moral rectitude with mathematical rigidity of investigation, yet be thought it could scarcely be controverted that if rnen were trained to logical, accurate, and careful thought, whatever evils now obtain in the world from that mental obliquity which confounds right and wrong, would be prevented.Some of those before him hud been partially unsuccessfui.He trusted that they would not be disheartened by defeat, remembering that we have ail to learn to bear disappointments and discouragements in this world, and remembering too that if they can retire into their own hearts and feel tha\u2019t their utmost efforts have been put forth, and .hat they have availed themselves as far as possible of their advantages, they have now a nobli r reward than any extrinsic honors could confer.\u2022To; those who had been successful he would say that every success in life brings with it new responsibilities, and it became them therefore to call forth all their energies to meet the new duties of their changed positions.Here in this institution they had been like some bark ia a sheltered cove 'hat sees the outer sea roughened by storms, while it lies in tranquil waters.But now they must go forth to meet first the treshen-ing breeze and then the howling storm.Here friendly hands bad guided their studies and lightened their labours.Henceforth they must stand alone\u2014labour alone\u2014do battle atone.Then that they might conquer, let them go forth strengthened with right principles and generous resolutions.Now he must say farewell.He look to them from this moment a new relation.He was ho longer their instructor, but now, side by; side, he and they would contend with an ennobling emulation in the conflict of life, and in their every successful achievement ha should equally with them rejoice.Hon.Mr.Justice DAY felt great salisfaction in coming forward that afternoon as the representative of the corporation of McGill College to express the sympathy which that body feit with the Normal School and their warmest wishes for its success.He himself had derived great gratification both from the results of the examination which had just finished and also from the brilliant assembly which he saw before him, for he felt that such assemblies were evidence that education was making progress not merely so taras regarded its machinery but also in the interest which it excited; for ihey proved that the public heart was roused and the public mind stirred up upon the subject, and when that was once the case the cause of education could- cot fail to succeed.He had been highly pieased with the results of the examination generally, but there were three of its features in which he had taken a more especial interest.These were first, the close examination in mental arithme] tic ; secondly, that in natural history, and thirdly that in music.Notions on.education sa was the case with regard to many other sciences, had unfortunately up toa very iate period become stereotyped.A path so to speak had been marked out and enclosed by a hedge, and for a considerable time no one had had the audacity to diverge from that beaten track, but whenever any one di s date to quit the route and break threngh the hedge, he found something on the other side 1; ing bidden and overlooked that eventually turned out of great importance in educational training\u2014and this was the case with mental arithmetic.It was a faculty that was constantly required in every day !if'e,\u201cand he had been much struck with the superiority which the leas educated possessed over the more highly educated in rapidity of calculation ; the ease and precision for instance with which a csrtain class of people can give the total price of a number of articles of varying vaine which the more educated mind demands a longer period to arrive at.The fact was that mental arithmetic was a science which like poetry depended on an intellectual^ faculty, and required cultivation.He had no doubt that an eminent example of the peculiar skill of which he was speaking would be known to several of bis hearers in the person of Mr.Bidder, brotherof the late manager of the Grand Trunk Railway.He would also mention another example in the case of a Canadian boy who although totally at a loss on other matters could grasp any question that was presented to him in arithmetical numbers, and could answer the most difficult ones by a sort of instinctive faculty, and not by means of any perceptible exertion of the mind.How he must say that he had been excessively pleased with the rapidity and accuracy of the pupiis, as well as astonished at the difficult questions which they so easily solved, and he had feit whilst listening to their examination that he was fortunate in being there in the capacity of a spectator merely.What he had ailuded to was practical in its\" merits, but he wouid go a step higher and speak of music And here be could not sufficiently wond r how it happened that music bad been so long neglected.It had a spell about it that could excite any of the human emoti ns\u2014that couid appeal alike to hope and fear and lore and joy\u2014 that had no limit to its power; and yet how recent had been its introduction.He'was aware that there had been a prejudice against it to the effect that it would teach young men to be idle, but he need scarcely show the absurdity of that superstition\u2014as if a young man must be idle because he was capable of appreciating music and evoking its sweet sounds.He was glad that we bad at last got to appreciate that important member of the assthetic fimily\u2014that powerful instrument which could influence all the passions of th© human nature.But to pass from music to natural history, from the bar many of numbers to the harmony of God\u2019s visible creation.A strange thing it was that although the attention of men had been so long directed to subjects oi education yet this one also should have been neglected.It was with this that the first ray intelligence that dawns upon the infant i ring out enough haa been already said ¦ vet.i, remained an error into which Wwer'/ifm fa!!, and from which he would endeavor to 0 them; and that was the belief that the work before them was merely intellectual work-a training of the talents and faculties only.Now thia not the case.No knowledge iould be ,g,ven ® the pupils whom they might have in chare! without at the same time a knowledge of gofd and evil being imparted with it.Every leeso wou.o bring with it some germ of the distinction between right and wrong; and it was their dutv to see that this should be done, and to direct it that the gr.at fundamental principles of justice\u2019 truth, honesty, and the eternal fonodation of our salvation should be, as they were capable of being, transmitted in the very simpl.st lessons This might be done without any fear ot an ap\"-proach to sectarian principles.It was an arduous task that lay before them, and couid not ba performed without an effort ; yet they would remember that there were two great powers that would enable them to perform it: first, a humble self-denial; arid secondly, a brave, unflagging iodustry.The true power was the power of labor, not ths power of intellect, which, without perseverance, was little or noihing.A celebrated writer had said, \u201c Genius is patience\u201d\u2014 nay, rather let them say that genius without patience is nothing worth.It is the gold cup without the generous wine or limpid water.Let them fill it to the brim with honest industry, and wait quietly for their success, knowing that common sense and patient labor had done more than all the idle genius that ever flrshed through it since the world began.In conclusion, he wou'd again assure them of his deep sympa'hy, and his hops that their work wouid be successful.Hon.P.J.O.CHAUYEAU thought that the large audience he had the pleasure of seeing assembled there that day was one of the best signs of the times, and to ba looked upon as powerful evidence of the interest which education was exciting.He flattered himself that the educational department would obtain an increase to its funds so soon as the state of the nnanees of the province would admit of it.r.very other department had obtained a great increase within the last few years, the educa-tiopal had received but little aid comparatively speaking, but he hoped that the time was not -ar off when this would be altered, and he trusted toai an intelligent public would keen an ere on 1 \u2018\u2018sse

ofMessrs.Allan and Gillespie, of this port, have been the two first ships of the season in this trade ; neither of them having used any steam power at either end of the voyage.They both sailed from Liverpool with the same tide on the 2d of April, and both arrived in Quebec on the 28th of that month, the same day as the Shandon, Captain Creig, which sailed from Glasgow on the 31st March.While in the St.Lawrence, the two Mersey ships were abreast of the Shandon, but declined accepting the offer of towing offered by a steamer, which Captain Greig availed himself of From Montreal, after taking in cargo of wheat and flour, the two ships started with the same tide on the 17th instant, two days earlier than the Shandon ; but not having the advantage of towing, free from the Channel to the estuary, as is possessed by the Clyde ships, the Shandon got into Greenock on the evening of the 19th ; whereas the Mersey vessels, with similar assistance, could have been in Liverpool on the evening of the 17th.and actually did arrive on the morning of the 22nd, thus performing the whole voyage out and hack in two months and twenty days ; the Shandon having taken two months and twenty two days to perform the same voyage.A circumstance, more curious than important, connected with this apparently competitive voyage, is tv» be found in the fact, that the Toronto and Montreal both left Liverpool by the same tide, and both arrived in the Prince\u2019s Dock by the same tide ; although the one took the north and the other took the south channel in rounding Ireland.It is but fair to add that all the three ships referred to are fast sailers, and all of them are British built\u2014the Toronto and Montreal having been built by Messrs.Denny & Rankine, of Dumbarton; the Shandon by Messrs.Barclay & Curie, of Glasgow.\u2014[LiverpoolDaily Post.] THEATRE^ ROYAL, This Evening, MONDAY, July 19, Will be presented, for the first time, the thrilling Drama, translated from the French, in 3 Acts,

receded from his opposition to to the measure.He believed it was impossible to maintain inviolate the principles for which their Lordships had so long contended without hfTnp-incr themsfilves into coïlision-ffiith the House .of Commons ;\u2014Therefore, he felt it the duty of the House to consider \"whether there was any possibility of satisfactorily settling all differences.He believed that the suggestion of Lord Lucan that the Commons should be allowed to dispense by resolution with the word \u201c On the faith of a Christian\u201d when a gentleman of Jewish persuasion applied to take his seat, afforded the only solution of the diffi-, culty, and therefore, thnnp-h with preat regret, he was prepared to accept the measure.After some debate the second reading was carried by 143 t.n

that, if a satisfactory answer should not be returned at once, more f ships of war were to be sent to the Adriatic.The Patrie says that a Russian frigate had joined the 'i\u2019rench squadron in the
