unclear Chapter XX. 317 [symbol] At Toronto I was taken over the Educational Department for upper Canada. It is ambitiously unclear; & combines so many objects, namely a general Library, a collection & depot of Schoolbooks, & of School apparatus, galleries of Art, chiefly for copies of celebrated pictures, & pieces of Sculpture, & Normal Schools, that I spent two hours in going through it. On my making some observations on the cost of the Building, & of its contents I was told, that it might appear that too much had been spent on the Department, but that it had unclear been carried out on this scale, & the building made imposing, & the galleries added in order to give dignity & elevation to the idea of Education in the minds of the people. A unclear had been unclear, that if the Normal Schools were unclear under the same roof, a better class of young persons wd offer themselves for the position of Teacher; & their hope had not be disappointed.
