The Series embraces a complete course of Elementary Drawing, consisting of appropriate and carefully graduated Copies, advancing from the simple stroke to the most difficult outline, printed in pencil-coloured ink, to be first drawn over, and then imitated. The Exercises have been so simplified, as to render the art of Drawing as easy of attainment as that of Writing. As soon as children are able to write, they are also able to draw. And for the purpose of early training, in order that their ideas of Form may become correct, and the eye and hand acquire the habit of working in unison without effort, it is confidently believed that no Series of Drawing Books exists which can compare with the present. The results of training in the numerons Schools and Families where the books have been employed, will, fully justify this

eminently intellectual character, and one who
in no respect gave a more valuable example to
others than in the importance which he at-
tached, and in the conscientious care which he
devoted, to the education of his children. It
was fitting that this Corporation should not
pass unnoticed the death of such a man; and
the Council accordingly at its last meeting
adopted an address of condolence and respectful
sympathy to Her Majesty the Queen, in the
terms of which the entire body of Members will
no doubt cordially concur.

The Resolution relating to the proposed Scho-
lastic or Educational Registration Act, which
was adopted at the last General Meeting, was
referred to the Educational Committee, by
which it was most carefully considered. The
Resolution left it entirely to the discretion of the
Council to adopt any means that might appear
to be most likely to promote the object in view;
and the Committee, feeling that in order to
proceed on safe ground, it was necessary, in
the first instance, to ascertain the opinions of
the general body of the Profession, recom-
mended to the Council the issuing of a Circular,
to be addressed to all Teachers, whether mem-
bers of the College or not, as a means of calling
their attention to the subject, and of eliciting
their views upon it, the Circular has alrea
The Council adopted this

A considerable number of replies to it haye al-
ready been received, all of which express their
writers' warm approval of the proposed mea
sure, and their willingness to exert themselves
to promote its success. Thus far, then, the
step taken by the Council has been ⁄httended
with satisfactory results. In a short time the

Another Resolution passed at the last Gene

ral Meeting was to the effect that a deputation
should be sent from the College to the Lord
President of the Council, for the purpose of
supporting
a certain suggestion contained in
the
of the recent Commission Edu-
eation. The Council is prepared to carry out
this Resolution at the earliest favourable oppor
tunity, which it is expected will not be much
longer deferred.
