a <br />yciP <br />REPORT. <br />THE School Committee, in submitting their Annual Report, <br />congratulate the town on the general prosperous condition <br />of all the schools. No school has done badly, but some <br />have prospered excellently well ; and a more efficient or <br />zealous corps of teachers, taken together, or more harmo- <br />nious action between them and their pupils, seldom falls <br />to the lot of any town. And we hope the time is not <br />distant, when gross ignorance, and the false views and <br />prejudices emanating therefrom, will give place to accurate <br />learning, judicious intelligence, and unostentatious virtue. <br />Instances of great merit, in particular classes in several of <br />the schools, are not wanting ; and examples of marked and <br />praiseworth accuracy and proficiency in individual scholars <br />could be pointed out, if any good could be expected to re- <br />sult from it : but as such a step, in our opinion, would be <br />of more than questionable utility, we designedly refrain <br />from it, while we pass in review the several schools. <br />EAST VILLAGE. <br />Grammar School.— This school, during the whole of the <br />past year, has been under the tuition of Mr. HENRY L. <br />CHASE, a gentleman of considerable experience in teaching, <br />who brought with hirn, besides the legal qualifications, zeal, <br />energy, and determination, which rarely fail of success.
