Concert was given in the W. M. Church, Thornhill, by the scholars and some of the teachers of the sabbath school. On account of the unfavorable weather, which preceded the day of the Concert and the unfavorableuess of the evening, thevgathering, although larger than could have been expected, was not as large as on former occasions. The pillars, chandeliers, etc., were twined, and the walls festooned with evergreens, inter- woven with crimson berries and the leaves of our national tree, whose gorgeous autumnal hues contrasted beautifully with the dark green of the foilage by which1 they were surrounded. Opposite the entrance : was the inscription “happy greeting to all," ‘ surmounted by a crown, and the sides were decorated with Sesipturul mottes. But the greatest attraction of all was the school. The scholars were ranged on seats raised one above the other, and the girls, with their white dresses, pink ribbons and rosy cheeks, might be supposed to represent the petals of an enormous rose, while the boys, clad in darker habilments, would as easily be taken to represent the sepales. [be en tertaimnent consisted of solos, duetts, quartettcs and choruses varied by speeches from the Rev. Messrs. Bredin & Garbntt. The selections were good and well executed, and if we may judge, by the applause which was elicited, were appreciated, especially a solo by Miss E. Campbell, a girl of live summers, was deservedly encorcd. The speech of Mr. Bredin aboundcd with that keen wit, for which he is noted, while Mr, G arbutt’s address to the children was inter- esting and effecting.

It affords us much pleasure to announce to our readers that Mr. R. S. Wiggins, a second year student in Toronto University. has triumphantly carried off the Gilchrist Scholarship. This is further proof of the high standard attained at this Institution of learning, and is convincing evidence of its superiority ovor all others. We rejoice to see our Canadian youths competing successfully in such grand intellectual struggles, and hope Mr. Wiggins’ example will not be lost sight of. R. S. Wiggins was formerly a pupil in the Foothill Grammar School. and took a“d0ubic” scholarship at his matriculation at Toronto University, in 1866. In order that our readers may fully unaerstnnd the particulars of the Gilchrist Scholarship, we copy the following from the Journal of Education of February 1868 :â€" GILCHRIsr EDUCATIONAL ThUST. ' ‘ “Under this title there has existed for some years, iiflEnglund an institution having for its object the encouragement of educa- tion, and the study of the sciences in every part, of the world. Owing to the liberality of Dr. Gilchrist, scholarships have been founded to aid in carrying out the idea. “The youth of Canada. are called upon to participate in the advantages offered, oh- serving certain conditions contained in the following programme obtained from His Excellency the Lieutenant Governor. ' “ A Scholarship of the value of £100 stg. per annum, and tenable forthree years, will be granted to every successful candidate, a resident of the Dominion of Canada, who will become ellglblé to compete and who desires afterwards to pursue an academic course of study in Great Britainâ€"the fol- lowing couditions stipulated :â€" “1. Every candidate must be a, native of the Dominion of Canada, or have resided there for three years immediater preceding the examination. “ 2. Every candidate must furnish to the local authorities satisfactory proof, that he is at least 16, and not more than 22 years of age. “3. Every candidate must also furnish satisfactory proof to the local authorities that his morality entitles him to compete for a scholarship. “4. Candidates approved by the local authorities Will present themsc'ves for the midsummer matriculation examination at the London University, which will take place simultaneously at Quebec, Montreal, Kingston, Toronto, Ottawa, Halifax, and in a city subsequently to be named, in New Brunswick, commencing the last Monday in June under the direction of Subâ€"Examiners named by the Governor of Canada. “ 5. The answers of candidates approved as aforesaid, will be transmitted through the the Colonial Office to the Registrar of the University who will lay them before the Ex- aminers for correction and revision ; and who will draw up a report of' the result of the examination; and the scholarship will be awarded to the candidate who shall have come out highest at the examination, pl'o- vided he shall have taken “honors,” or shall have been admitted to the 1st Division. THE GILCHRIST SCHOLARSHIP. “ 6. The decision of 1he Examiners will be immediately transmitted by the Secretary of the “ Gilchrist Institution,” through the Colonial Office to the local authorities of the capitals of the colonies, then to be made known to the candidates. “ 7. The successful candidate must pre- sent himaelf t0 the Secretary of the "Gil- christ- Institution” in London, not later than the first week in October following his nomination. “ 8. Each sludenl' will have to choose between the “Edinburgh University,” and “ University College” London, in which to follow his course; but he will be expected to pursue his studies with the view of gradu- nting in one of the four faculties of the London University. “9. Each scholarship will be considered as having commenced from Ike lst July fol- lowing the decision of the Examiners, pay: able. quartefly, the lst October, January, April, andfiJulv. . ‘ . 1n I“ 10. Each student, each sessxon, shall follow, at least, three courses of lectures in the institution, which he ‘has selected, and shall transmit to the Secretary of the “Gilchrist Institution.” at the end of each session a certificate from each of the Pro- fessors, whose course he has followed, stating that his diligence and conduct have been satisfactory. “Ifhe be unable to procure such certificate and if it, be otherwise proved that his con- duct is unsatisfactory, he will be considered as having lost all claims to the payment of the remainder of the bursary. “ 11. Each student must present himself at the first examination in one of the four Faculties of Londonâ€"arts, science, law, or medicine, before the expiration of the sec- ond academic year, dating from the day when he shall have obtained his bursary; should he fail to present himself, unless ex~ cused by the administrators, or fail to pass, he will be considered as having lost all right to the remainder of the bursary. After hav- ing passed his first examination, he must pursue his studies with a view of presenting himself for a second, within two academic years. m. n . 1 .n 1 ‘ “ 12. The foregoing scheme will be sub ject to revision from time to time, the ad- ministrators reserving to themselves the right to- modify the conditions of the hur- sary, on: to withdraw it altog'ther7 shouid they judge it expedient. There will, how- ever, be no change made that will affect the interests of candidates already provided with bursaries, nor in any case without previous notice of twelve months.” Two notorious counterl‘eiters named Geo. Campbell and Edward Rice were arrested last night in a small frame house in Windsor The detectives had been after them for some time, and finally caught them up- on the premises where the countefeiting was done, and dies, plates, presses and all the paraphernalia of a counterfeiter’s den, including about $20,000 in bogus fifty-cent currency in all stages of' progress were seized. The plates are most skilfully ex- ecuted, the imitation engine-ruling work about the vignettes being espeeially fine, wholly baffling; the naked eye and deceiv- ing a. casual observer with a magnifying glass. Geo. Campbell is about forty years of age, an Englishman by birth. and counter- feiter by education. In fact he never suc- ceeded in any other line of business. His crimes are numerous, and his person is well-known to every thief catcher of ex- perience in the‘United States or Gaiiada. n” four years of his time was spent in the Jersey Penitentiary. Rice is younger in years and experience, and aside from his life as a, coumelfeiter but little is known of him further than that he is a Missourian by birth. During the war he ran an op position establishment to the Secretary of the Treasury, and issued 6-30 bonds of the denomination 0t $100 and was succeessful in selling a. large number of them to a Bos- ton broker at a. slight discount. Both these worthies left for Washington on Saturday night.

The Detroit Free Press, says that on the arrival of the warrant, Mr. Pinkerton made a prompt arrangements for the removal of Reno and Anderson. On Sunday night every- thing being in readiness, Mr. Pinkerton and a few friends drove down to Sandwich in a hack. Meeting, by good fortune, the char riff on the road thither, he was taken on board and very soon all hands were ready for business,‘but before the men were re-: moved, two or three hacks had arrived, and the people of Sandwich had turned out some forty or fifty strong. Pinkerton and his men seemed to know their business, however,and soon the men were placed in the hack and driven towards the landing, where a boat was in waiting to carry them out to the tug,which was lying in the stream. At the landing there was rather a painful scene between the men and their wives, the latter insisting on accompanying their husbands on board the tug. This was not permitted, however, and soon the tug was under motion. The whole was very adroitly managed by Pinkerton and his men, and the friends of the prisoners had but little time to come to their assist- ance. At present it is difficult to say what the course of the tug will be, as her destina- tion is only known to Mr. Pinkerton and those on board. Several men were on horseback at Sandwich at the time of the removal, and it is conjectured that they will try and determine as nearly as they can the course taken by the steamer. After the boat was under headway,shrieks were heard which are supposed to have come from the prison- ers, and to have been intended by them as a sort of indication of the direction they were being taken. Though the first great stage t of the detectives laboan is over in this case. 1 there are two great difficulties yet to contend l with. In getting the prisoners to their des- tination, lie will have continually to guard ‘ against a rescue 0n the part of the Indiana 1 thieves, and on the other hand he will have to watch with equal care the movements of the vigilance committees, lest the men should be disposed of without further trial. The former are doubtless warned of their ap« proach ere this. and further developments will be looked for with interest. The faith of the United States is firmly pledged for their permanent. safety, and that they shall have a fair trial. The French ladies, far from condemning Isabella of Spain, and casting that odium upon her policy which it has generally in- spired among lhe male sex, have risen with one voice to proclaim her the rcgenerator of disinterested sentimentâ€"the renovator ofthe antique moral sacrificeâ€"that yielding up of all things for the sake of friendship which we had thought w0uld never more be prac- tised in this century of buying and selling, of chafi'ering and bargaining, and which the the tender female heart had been lead so often to regret with bitter sighs. Reno and Anderson's Extradition. 133ml 3m. AUCTION SALES. TEACHERS AND THE TEACHING PROFESSION. Sm :â€"â€"It has of late years been a con- stant complaint amongst teachers that the golden days of the teaching professrou are past, that it no longer affords a sure, pleasant and remunerative employment for talent and education. The profession is flooded, the labor of the teacher is in con- sequence depreciated, and salaries are re- duced. The licensing of so many teachers has lowered the profession in the respect of the people, made it unreliable as ameans of living, and contemptible as a source of profit. The tendency of aucha state of things, we are told is tne employment of inferior talent, the riving away of men of ability, who go at something more lucrative and inviting. This may all be true, but I believe the teachers themselves are to some extent blameable, and have much of the remedy in their own hands. No person will deny that the teacher has much influence in directing the course of the youth under his charge; acting as an intelligent man, feeling responsible for his advice he would in the present state of the learned profession warn a young man against. studying law or medicine as offering nol inducement, and condemn teaching as a profession for life. He would rather re- commend an honest trade, or the healthy and invigorating, though humble pursuit of agriculture. ’But is such advice always given ‘2 I am afraid not. It. is to be feared that in his anxiety to make scholars, and gain a reputation for himself, the teacher often overcomes his prudence for the interests of his own profession and his res gards for the interests of his pupils. Lenrn- ‘ ing is often held up as the only laudablel object of ambition. The young man is taught to look on physical toil as degmdâ€"l, ing, on mental to-il as the only means of attaining the great ends of life. happiness and distinction. A little good advrce would tell him this is mere imagination, that hep- piness is oftener enjoyed on the farm than in l the study, and that. distinction is not) always ‘ connected 'with the drudgery of law and medicine. There are some teachers who are infatuated enough to take a pride in making teachers, and who annually have fresh candidates for certificates at our Boards of Examination ; this 1st; well known fact. They do an injustice to their pupils for in nine cases out of ten it would be better for them if they never got certificates. They do an injustice to their own profession. These young men go around canvassing the country for schools, and offering themselves atlow salaries. They have certificates and want to make use of them. “An easy living~salary no consideration," is their principle of action. They are genereily unqualified for the important duties of a teacher. Their greatest achievement. is to work a problem in Sangster. They often cannot write decent composition, know notly ing of literature, even of the politicsof their own country. But these are to be our educa- tors, cXpand the mindiand advanced civilza« tion? “Pity ’tis true and true’tis pit .” In “hard times" low salaries are popu ur and the inferior teacher is often employed. These teacher-makers. are led away Fry a petty ambition of making themselves famous, they imagine they will be looked upon as eminent men in their profession, as great in their day and generation. They enjoy an unenviable fume; i‘i'rht thinking persons consider them as a at of post, a social evil. It is to be hoped that they will see the error of their ways, repent, and aetns sensible men. If teachers do their duty they can do much to improve the state of the pro fession, They should cease in engaging in a foolish rivalry of making" sehoolmasters and soâ€"calleti “scholars.” Our annual school teachers examinations should not be the arenas of contentions for superiority amongst the pupils (-f (iifl'ereut schools. Teachers should consult the true interests of the youth under their charge, encourage them to honest nit. vie with each other in giving a practical education, that will show itself in the intelligence of our future farmers, mechanics and tradesmen, in the productiveness of- labor, and the general good of society. Let them do their duty and whilst promoting the interests of others they will promote their own, and elevate their own profession. v MY DEAR MR. E91101: ;â€" Du tell I We are in such a. packer.

If the latter road is built to Orangeville within two years, the tram- way claims will be altogether abandoned; the shareholders receiving a bond of indem- nity f or their paid up stock. The agreement will he submitted for ratification to a special meeting of the tramway shareholders to he held on Thursday next. There is no doubt but the agreement will be ratified, and the only obstacle to the Orangeville grant of $15,000 to the Toronto, Grey & :Bruce Railway thereby removed. SUICIDE NEAR“ WA'er.00.â€"â€"Wate1-Ioo, Oct 27.â€"-Tlris morning about nine o’clock, an aged farmer by the name of Job-n Scopp, living near Waterloo, committed suicide by Howmg his brains out with a shot-gun. De- ceased had taken his breakfast as usual with his wife, and the latter had gone to the barn to water the cows, when it wouki seem the poor old man became afflicted suddenly with an attack of suicidal mania, for he took his gun from its long heretofore res-ting place, and, placing the muzzle in hls mouth. delib~ erately consummated the act. A verdict was renéered by the coroner’s jury in accordemce with the above facts. A Snares (hissâ€"There is a man at present living in this city, who from the age of five years until about there months ago has been deaf and dnnib.

New YORK, Oct. 26.â€"0ne of the most destructwe fixes that have occurred in the neighbourhood Hunter’s Point in a number of years broke out last night, between the hours of 10 and 11 o’clock. The cause of the fire was owing to an explosion of naptha on board a. Swedish brig which was lying at the foot of Ferry stx'eet. The vesael was laden with the combustible material ; and a. moment after the explosion was heardfihewas wrapped in one sheet of flame. For a length of time the fire was confined to the vessel, but the extensive oil works of Rockefellers, Andrews & 00., and Warren’s oil works. inthe sheds of which were nored some 91000 or 10,000 barrels of oil, canght fire, and the ignimble material stored thexe soon consigned them and the buildings adjoining to destruction. Much interest was manifeet‘ed as to, the fate of the crew, as the rapidity; with which the vessel was destroyecl, after the explosion took place rendered escape almost impossible, if they were on board at the time. One of the men was picked up on the deck, but so dreadfully injured from the efl'eets of the explosion, that he was unable to give any-information that might help in ascertaining the fate of the remainder of the crew three in number.
