in the present day are little better than the clergy of England under Elizabeth and James , abettors of despotic power , preachers of passive obedience , and ready instruments in extending the influence , of a miserable court prerogative at the expense of the rights and franchises of a great people .

Progress of Education . The tables of the University give , for the year J 822 , a total of 108 schools , and 4330 pupils , throughout the department of the Indre et Loire ; which , out of a population of 282 , 372 inhabitants , gives about 1 pupil in 65 . Since
that year the amelioration has increased in a very sensible manner , at least in some quarters . Thus , the canton of Bourgueil , which then had only three primary schools , with 162 pupils , reckons now 430 pupils ; which , out of its population , is 1 to 38 . The canton of Lanseny composed of eleven communes , in 1822 , had only one school , and 111 pupils ; and now , a single one of these
communes ( that of Saint Marc La Pile ) has two schools and 66 pupils , for 1568 inhabitants ; that is to say , one pupil out of 23 or 24 . Upon the whole , the department gives one pupil out of every 83 inhabitants ; some of the cantons more advanced in civilization , one out of 33 ; and the city of Tours , one out of 8 or 9—the last being nearly equal to the proportion of Glasgow , according to Dupin .
