Some strong statements are made in the Melbourne Age, on the authority of Mr Stewart, RELIGIOUS Victorian Inspector TEACHING. General of Schools, | as well asSir George [ Turner and Mr Peacock, on the merits jof the system of religious instruction lin the schools of New South Wales. Mr Stewart is reported as saying: '." They were not taken at any particular hour of the day, and might be placed between vulgar fractions and vocal exercise, according to tbe whim of the teacher. He was much shocked to he_r such expressions as ' our Saviour * used glibly, and without any apparent reverence; in fact, the lesson did not ; appear to be of any more importance , to the children or teachers than any i other lessons. The whole tenor of Mr 1 Stewart's conclusions goes to show that the adoption of the New South Wales system in Victoria would be a grave mistake. While in Sydney at tending the Federal Convention, Sir George Turner and Mr Peacock have both looked into the matter of Scripture lessons as given in the State schools of that colony, and have visited several of the schools to observe the character of the religious teaching. They are i both of opinion that the io-calied religious ins: ruction is a sham, and thut tbe youth of Victoria would derive no benefit from tho introduction of a similar method "
