NOTICES TO CONTRIBUTORS.

It is particularly requested that articles intended for insertion be written legibly and on one side only of each half sheet.

As a guarantee of good faith, it is essential that the name of every contributor should be made known either to the Secretary, or to one of the Committee.

Each contributor will be made responsible for correcting the proofs of his own article.

The Committee of Editors wish it to be distinctly understood that the insertion of an article by no means implies their acquiescence in the opinions contained therein;—their sole rule of selection is to insert that article, which, from the thought it exhibits, or some other merit, shall appear most deserving of the reader's attention.

Notices of rejected communications will not in future be inserted, but the articles will be returned to the Authors by the Secretary.

It is particularly requested that articles intended for insertion in the next number be forwarded to the Secretary on or before November 9th, 1861.

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS.

The Subscription for the fourth year's issue, comprising Numbers IX., X., and XI., is fixed at 3s. 6d. It is requested that it may be paid without delay to Mr. Elijah Johnson, Bookseller, Trinity Street.

The Subscription for last year's issue, (Numbers VI., VII., VIII.), was fixed at 3s. 6d. The Committee will feel obliged if those Subscriptions, which are not yet paid, be forwarded at once to the same address.

Subscribers may obtain extra copies of any of the numbers on application to Mr. E. Johnson, at a charge of 1s. 6d. or 2s., according to size. Subscribers' names will be received by the Secretary or by Mr. Johnson.

HOW TO DEAL WITH THE BUCOLIC MIND.

No. I. Village Schools.

IN several numbers of The Eagle Non-resident Members of the College have been requested to send contributions on subjects with which they happen to be practically acquainted. The Country Curate even has more than once been invited to relate some of his experiences, for the benefit, I presume, of those now in residence at St. John's, who are intending to take Holy Orders, or to settle down as "County Squires" upon their hereditary estates.

As a Country Curate of seven years' standing, and a grateful subscriber to The Eagle from its commencement, I have accepted the invitation, and will, if agreeable to the Editors, forward a few sketches in illustration of the workings, and the proper treatment of the Bucolic Mind. First, in reference to Education.

My readers will be prepared to hear that the Bucolic mind is not favourably disposed towards education. A friend of mine in Nottinghamshire, some little time ago, asked a farmer in his parish if he would do something for the education of the lads employed on his farm, by sending them to school, at any rate, on alternate days. Would he not like to improve their minds and educate them a little? "No," said the farmer, "I'll have no education for 'emI like my boys to be strong and silly." My friend had heard this kind of sentiment ascribed to South Carolina Planters, but he did not expect to find it openly avowed by an Englishman in the 19th Century. The number of those who would utter such an atrocious sentiment is certainly diminishing, but I fear for some years to come that the greatest obstacle to education in country villages will be the indifference, or the opposition of the small farmers. Heaven defend us from an Education-rate, pared down and doled out by a board of these parochial worthies.
