‘THE Sratre Instrrvre.—During the
last week a State Institute was in
session in San Francisco, and for all the
benefit resulting froin the deliberations
to the cause of education it would have
been as well had it never been called.
A number of delegates from abroad be_. ame so disgusted with the trifling and
unsystematic management of affairs
that they left before the end of the sec.
ond day. State Superintendent Fitzgerald came to a “dead stand” before
the organization of the Institute,.and
after stating that he was unfamiliar
with the usual method of organizinginstitutes, asked for ‘information —
Had he consulted the minutes of Insti-:
tutes held under the supervision of
THE OAKLAND CoLLEGE ScHoot.—
The following extract is from the'S. P,
Daily Times, of the 11th inst. Its sen«
timents have been reverberated in all
the metropolitan newspapers:
“Its students are drawn from every
county in California, from Oregon;
Washingion: Territory, Nevada; Montana, Arizona, Lower California, Mexico and the Sandwich Islands. About
two htidred and fifty have been-in
attendance during the past term, one
hundred and fifty of whom are board‘ers. Each term a new building or enlargement is needed to furnish increased accommodations; which are always
contrived in a commodious manner.
The school is divided into several district departments, each graded into
many subdivisions, The young bo
are well cared for in the primary. department, which is Supervised by C. C.
Brier. The next higher is called the
junior, and still higher are the senior
classes. In the latter separate rooms
are provided for the students in the.
classical course.’ These are prepared
fora regular collegiate course, under
the instruction of Prof. Martin Kellogg, of the College of California, Geo.
_E. Beckwith, and F.H. Whitworth.
Many young men, however, enter the
institution who desire mérely a liberal
business education without‘the classics.
These enter the senior English departmon sense he would not have been com‘pelled to appear to such disadvantage.
The organization of the Institute is but
an example of all the exercises, and if
_ teachers have no more system in their
__ daily work in the school room than was
manifested in the management of the
Institute, we pity the rising generation. It would be difficult to get intoa town meeting in any mining camp
in the State and not find more business
capacity and a better system of doing
business than.was manifested by the
educators lately in convention assembled
__We doubt if any teacheris better quali.
fied for his work because, he attended
the late institute., We advise the man-agers of the State Inatitute-to_ visit Ne.
vada county on the 23d, and they will
learn something of the business from .

~~ PREACHING SUNDAY.—Divine servivices will be held in the Methodist
Church Sunday morning at 11 o'clock,
and in the evening at 72 o’clock.—
Sabbath School at 1} o’¢lock, Pp. mi
Rev. €. H. Northup, pastor. Se
Preaching at the Baptist Church today, at li a.M. and7i P.M. Rev. Mr
Wirth, pastor. Sabbath School at the
close-of the morning service.
THE CALIFORNIA TEACHER.—At the
recent meeting of the State Educational Society, the members were proceeding as usual to elect editors of the California Teacher when they were notified
by O. P. Fitzgerald that unless he could
have entire control of the magazine and
have it issued from his office, he would
withdraw his connection and support of
that journal. Whether Fitzmuggins
wanted the Teacher issued from the office of the Spectator, or not, is not clear;
but we think that if he keeps his threat
the Teacher will be much better than
with his support. The Society elected
John Swett, Sam'l J. Swezey, Bernard
Marks, and Dr. T. W. Lucky, editors,
THE INcomE TaAx.—The demand for
the repeal of the income tax is almost
universal, There are many good reasons why this tax should be repealed
and very few in favor of its retention.
The great cost of collecting, the inducements it offers for fraud by tex payers
are reasons urged by its opponents.—
Congress has already diminished this
tax and it will in all probability be repealed so’ soon as a new tax bill can be
perfected.
Tax WEATHER.—The weather for
the past few days has been sweating
under a violent attack of heat. Savants say now that the dark spots on
the sun have been closed with fresh
combustibles and that the present
weather will continue so long as fuel
lasts. Linen coats, cool drinks and the
shade are in lively demand and will so
continue until the mercury falls,
A San Francisco pedagogue offered a
resolution in the late Institute which
eontained eighteen “whereases” and the
poor fellow gasped for breath and gave
up in dispair before he reached a “therement, at the head of which are the Vice
Principal, F. M. Campbell, and the As+ seciate Principal, Rev. E. G.-~Beekwitir]
lately of San -Franciseo and Sacra:
mento, and formerly Président. of the
Oahu College, Sandwich Islands. Here
the course of instruction-is in all the
branches of English éducationand—in
the modern languages, which are made
an integral part of the regular studies.
Book-keeping (single and double entry),
surveying and engineering are taught
80 as to combine both theory and’ practice. A fine laboratory, connected with
. the College of California, is open to
the students in chemistry and assaying
anda complete apparatus is used in
connection with recitation and lectures
in natural philosophy. Penmanship
drawing, painting and music are thespecialities of four different. teachers.
Specimens of work in these studies are
shown which reveal much latent talent,
can. boys.
‘The facilities which are offered by
large and beautiful play-grounds, and
a delightful climate, are well improved
by the students; All are distinguished
by erect and robust figures. Sickness
is unknown, and a good appetite, together with a good diet, make them all
as happy and comfortable as if in their
own homes,
The examinations, which have been_
held during this week, have been well
attended, by visitors and educational
critics, all of whom join in the highest’
commendation of both scholars and
teachers. The systematic discipline no
in the results of training, which are
brought to view at these examinations,
when three or four classes were being
examined at once in various departments. Theimpetus, which must be
given to academic instruction, by the
attention of the State being drawn to
the organization of a University must
be felt greatly in the Oakland College
School, whence, doubtless, a large number of those who enter the University
will be drawn.”

CoLLECTING.—The collecting committee for the Fourth of July were out
