About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1860 edition. Excerpt: ...too long, and it therefore behoves the country to compel them to tighten grasp upon it--coersive measures are called for by the existing state of things. While I am on the subject of promotion from the ranks, I may as well give a second instance of the inefficacy of the present system as a criterion of merit--or, rather, an instance of how it falls short of perfection from a want of the civil element, and from an over formality and excess of method in its chiefs. It would be unjust to say that the educational test is ignored wholly by the military rulers; but to thoroughly meet the case the test should be subject to no accidental variations in itself--as a metre, it must be fixed and stable, or its index will be influenced by extraneous disturbances brought to bear upon it perhaps for private ends. To be healthy it must have air too, but not that equable draught admitted through inlets whose machinery is Routine and whose cordage is Red Tape; it must be blown upon by a free current more indicative of the atmosphere without than is that which filters through such channels. I mean that the system should be subject, for instance, rather less to regi mentally appointed hours, and times of inspection, and more to uncertain and frequently differing ones. A teacher should not only know that returns will be expected from him on such a day, and reports on such another, that a certain officer (whose peculiarities he will master in the course of a few months) will visit the school-rooms and go through set forms of inspection; but he should be led also to fear visits frequently, changeable and searching scrutiny, and wwregimental droppings-in from any officer or civil functionary, connected with any educational department of the state. I may be here...
