An Address Delivered by JfEV. T. J. dlORGAlT, Kl 'i Before tlie Otoe County Teachers in stitute, Nebraska City, November 22, 1871. 3 propose fo give, first, n brief out line of. the life and work of Thomas Arnohl. and then to note a few of thoe traits of character and prineiT pies of action which matle him emi nently successful as the Head Muster of one of En;lund'a most celebrated public schools. We have only to con sider him as a teacher, and will not be concerned, therefore, with him., as a hiblorian, u Lhe6Ingfan-or a politician, alt hough in-'the realms of history, the" ology and politics he" made himself felt. Nor do T purpose an exhaustive sta'tenientof his system of instruction, his. method of government, or his grafts of character. My purpose is a more modest one. that of presenting some ot tlie saneiu leanirea oi me man and his work with a view to practical utility. I trust that some who hear me may be stimulated to a careful study ot his life. Carlyle tru ly says that "the company of great men is always profitable." Next to enjoying the iitruetion. the society,- the personal nieniisnip 01 a success ful man, is the satisfaction of study ing his biography. We there see prin ciples illustrated, methods in opera tion, and catch the jrlow and spiiit of a master. We borrow life from hin life, and go back to our work with higher ideals, clearer aims, firmer faith, and stronger incentives. An intelligent interest in a successful ca reer Is itself prophetic of sin-cess. Thomas Arnold was born ot West Cowes, in the Isle of Wight, in 1795. His early education was under the direction of an aHectionate and faith ful aunt. Miss Delafield. In 1803 he he entered school at Wiltshire. In 1807 he was removed to Winchester, where he remained four years. Dur ing those years he gained from Drs. Goddard and Gabel, successive head masters of Winchester, a knowledge of the tact in managing boj's. and kill in imparting scholarship, which was subsequently of great practical service to him. At 3 years of age be recciv'd a present from his father of Smollet's History of England, for the accuracy with which he rendered the stories connected with the successive reigu- and portraits. At the tame age he was able to put together the dissected map of England. He early commit ed to memory numerous ballads, and much of Pope's translation of Ho mer's Illiad, and delighted to repeat to his play-fellows the wonderful speeches of those grand old heroes. When Professor of History at Ox ford, he quoted fiom memory from Priestly's lectures on history which he read when 8 years old. Gibbon he read twice before entering college. We cannot too much admire thef wisdom with which his early educa-' tion was directed. His familiarity with geograpli3 poetry, history and language, all of which a child proper ly trained readily acquires, formed the solid basis on which rested that mag nificent structure of scholarship that he afterward reared. In 1S11, in his 16th year, he was en rolled as a student of Corpus Christi College, Oxford. Tlie College was small, and the students few and most ly ',young. The inlluences were, on the whole, excellent. The chief stu dy wilt the classics. But other studies occupied their attention. Questions pertaining to antiquity, and those of intense practical interest, growing out of the stirring events of the day. were eagerly discussed. Thus their minds were awakened, and the discipline acquired by study, and the fact 'gath ered from antiquity, were so many aids to the mastery of thne great practical problems of society, of church, and of state, by which they, in common with all earnest nieu,"were met. At Oxford he manifested an inde pendence of thought, a spirit of en quiry into tlie basis ot accepted theo ries and institutions, an ingenuous and frank' disposition, an earnest love of truth, and a zealous advocacy of bis own opinions, together with a willingness to learn lrom his oppo nents, which made him a marked stu dent and strongly attached to him many ot tlie brightest and greatest minds in the college. J lis college friendsh.pswere strong, included men of the most varied dispositions, at tainments and opinions, and weie long cherished vvith the most tender care. Mr. Justice T. Coleridge, a school mate and life-long friend, thus sums up his account of Arnold's un dergraduate ife at Oxford : "At the commencement a boy and at the close retaining, not un giacefully, much of boyish spirit, fiolic and simplicity ; in mind vigor ous, active, clear sighted, industrious, aud daily accumulating and assimila ting treasures of knowledge; not a-ver-o to poetry, but del ghting rather in dialectics, philosophy and history, with less of imaginative than reason ing power: in argument, bold, al most io presumption, and vehement ; iu temper easily roused to indignation yet more easily appeased ami entirely free from bitterness ; fired, indeed, by what he deemed unjust or ungenerous to others, rather than a sense of per sonal wrong ; somewhat too little de erential to authority; yet without inconsistency, loving what was good nnd great in antiquity the more ar dently and reverently because it was ancient. In heart, if I can spt ak with confidence of any of the friends of my youth I can of hi-, that it was de vout, and pure, simple, sincere, affec tionate and faithful." For the succeeding four years after graduating, he remained "at Oxford, taking private pupils and reading ex tensively, making copious notes and abstracts of books read, besides mak ing original sketchct; in history and theology. The next nine years'of his life were spent at Laleham, takiug private pupils in preparation for the TTn'IversIty-. - ----- - Mr. Price, who was a puj il for a short time at Laleham, says : "The most remarkable thing which atruck rqe at once on joining the Laleham circle, was the wonderful healthTulhess ortotiC nird'feeling'that prevailed: in it: Everythiogabout me 'I-jUrund" to b"em osteal-"; 'itrvfns a place WhefQft-nev'comer at once felCtpat a great arid earnest-y?ork was;going for ward.

Arnold entered upon his du ties in the midst of this general dis trust, but with a strong faith in the possibility of such a reform of the ex isting system as would not only save it, but make it the instrument of se curing to England the highest re- salt of academical culture. He en countered many obstacles, met fierce opposition, but he achieved a glorious triumph, made Rugby famous forev er, wrought a revolution in the whole chain of English schools, won for himself a high place among suc cessful teachers, gave new dignity to the profession, and "tho' dead he jet speaketh" to multitudes of earnest teachers in England and America, stimulating and encouraging them to higher efforts in their noble work. Let us mark some of the traits of the man, and some of the principles on which he labored. He was an ear nest, truth-loving, manly man, " Willi a heart to feel The great si ml lovely, and the poetry And saciudness of tilings." He had sincerity, "a great, deep, genuine sincerity, which," Carlyle says," is the first characteristic of all men in any way heroic." In seeking for the secret of his great success, we must ask not so much for what he taught, nor how, as for what he teas ! For teaching, in its truest sense, is not simply communicaiing knowledge, i ot exacting so much labor from pu pils.not even in awakening mind and giving impuKe-to self culture. It is all this, and more. It is living a true and noble life in the presence of others. It is more than example even. It is kindling earnestness ly earnest ness, sincerity by sincerity, life with life, manhood by manhood. " Like priest like people, "speaks one of God's subtlest laws, for, like begets like, in ti.e school-ioom as elsewhere. Hewas a religious man, a christian, ami one fixed purpose ever in v'ewwas to give a religious education. This was onlv to be himself, and arouse others to become what he was. Hisseimons in the chapels, are models, brief, sim ple, earnest, practical, were listened to with marked inteie.-t, and exerted a lasting influence on the minds of the students. It was not so much his sermons however, a? the religiousness of the than, which sIioko fmth at all times, and purvaded all his instruc tion, that wrought so powerfully to awaken the conscience give tone and direction to tho thinking, and mould the characters of his pupils. There iviisiinwint. no narade of piety, no tv or attainments, hot. strove to secure above every thing else moral though tf nines-," which he defined to be " an inquiring love of truth, going along with the divine love of good ness," The result which he attained may beat be stated in the words of Dr. Moberly, a man quite competent to pionounce judgement. Speaking of the time when he entered the Uni vereity, hesays; "A religious under graduate was very rare, very much laughed at when he appeared, aud I think I may confidently say, hardly to be found among publicschool men. - - A most singular .and sinking change has come upon our public scbutds.

He was in the truest sense of the word an educated man. From his earliest childhood we have seen he was carefully instructed by the ablest teachers and in the best schools of the day, and subsequent to his gmduation'at the University he con tinued his studies four years before be ginning hi teaching at Laleham. He entered upon his work at Rugby"vith a thorough classical add mathemati cal training, a deep store of historical knowledge, good habits of study, a keen relish for truth, and great' in denenilenee of thoturllt. ft Wa? his broad aud liberal culture, that gave fhim that depth of mind,, grasp ot truth, facility of acquisition, power ol classifying and organizing knowledge ami that soundness of judgment that made him aJiviugexemplitication to his pupils of that which lie strove to have each of them become, not sim plp a scholar, but an educated man. Hewas a growing man.-Having made himself master of the details of his profession, he sought bv a wide range of study to perfect his own education.

It was no mere summary of fads and dates butan in teresting story of real men. By pro found study and meditation using all the powers of memory, judgment, imagination, he placed himself in the midst of the times of which he taught, and being deeply interested himself filled his pupils with the same enthusiasm. There are few studies even in the common school in which it is not on ly possible but desirable for the teach ers to take a personal interest, and in uhigh some progress may not be made. What teacher of Geography has mastered all that Is to be known of that science? Who is there who might not.come to the recitation room daily with some new. instructive ami interesting facts. Discoveries are constantly being made, new descrip tions are being written; influence ol country, climate, soil &c, upon the physical, intellectual, social and evon icligioua life of nations are being more and more fully understood anil appreciated. Indeed Geography is one of the living sciences. But how often it is taught as one displays a mummy from the pyramids, a ghastly object from which one turns away only too gladly ! A fnend.of mine, now successfully teaching mathematics in an Eastern University, pursues the study more eagerly than the pupils, advancing into the higher regions of pure math ematics and at the same time investi I gating tor bis own inlormation ami i t. leisure the history ot the various branches of the science, tracing the formulas of algebra back to their or iginator, aud learning by whom, when and why, they were invi nted. Among my pleasante-t memories is that of seeing the deep interest taken by my teachers in the studies in which they were giving instruction. Would you interest others, become in terested yourself in what you teach. Make it a matter of historical inqui ry, or independent research, and in vestigation. History, mathematics, geography, geology, chemistry, as tronomy 'physiology, botany, are all incomplete and growing, in other words living sciences. Let the teach er who would really instruct, who would awaken mind, kindle enthusi asm, give an impulse to his pupils, put himself into such relation with that which lie teaches that his own mind shall be awake audi filled with enthusiasm, so that his own life shall be quickened by the living energies of the science that he teaches.
