I must not dwell further on this subject, now, except to repeat that any institutions intended to produce masters for the future schools should, while centering in the Universities, be made to descend lower than the ordinary University limits of age and station; and further, be so combined with general and local endowments as to ensure to the whole nation, and to successive generations, the ultimate advantage of improved teaching over and beyond the immediate benefit to individuals already gifted by Providence, or to localities favoured by founders. But while the Universities, acting at once independently and in concert among themselves, might undertake generally the conduct of examinations and the training of masters, it should devolve on those really interested-the inhabitants, the citizens-to sustain the machinery through which these examinations and teachers are to he brought in connection with schools, public, semi-public, or private, and so educate, in ascending yet harmonious grades, the whole population.
