Puritan forefathers were
among the best educated men in
England, so they to this
try -well prepared in mind s in
body to be the fore-runners of a
great nation. Even in seven-
century, the Massachusetts
colony had compulsory education.
Every settlement with fifty
had to have its school. aDd
the children were to at-
tend it Every village with one
hundred inhabitants was required
to its Grammar School, where
Greek and Latin wore taught.
The discipline of these schools was
very severe, possibly too much so,
but it must be admitted that it was
better than the lax discipline found
at the present time, in too many
schools. The moral part of the
children's education was not neg-
and those guilty of
did not have to be corrected by
the teacher more than once.
In 1636 the colony of
setts appropriated one
dollars for the founding of a col-
to which John Harvard added
two thousand, and it for
him, Harvard College. Thus there-
was established within eighteen
years after the first settlers landed
upon rock a college
whose reputation hr-s increased
from that day to this. early
settlers took so much interest
education that those who wove aide
to do no more, contributed one
peck of corn a year for the support
of Harvard College.
The colony of Connecticut, j
though impoverished by repeated
Indian wars, considered that the
interest of education and religion,
required the founding of another
college. Thus Yale College was
founded at New Haven, and one
hundred and fifty dollars were
given it per annum out of tins j
colonial treasury. Yale yet stands
nest Harvard as the
college in America.
other English colonies did
not make that progress in j
lion that was made by the New
England colonies. A Latin school
was opened in the city of New
York in 1687 under the sanction
of the English government; but
there was no provision by
the colonial government for
until the early part of the
eighteenth century. A grammar
was established in New
York in 1701, and the legislature
appropriated one hundred and fifty
dollars per annum for its support
for a limited time- During the
seventeenth the colonies
of Virginia, Pennsylvania, and the
did but little for the
cause of education. A few schools
were established for the children
of the wealthier planters, but no
system of general education was
thus far provided.
Mexico and the South
American States are far behind in
education, Canada and the United
States well keep pace with the
most enlightened nations of
Europe. The schools of Canada
are good, even from the common
school to the university, at Mon-
will compare favorably with
European colleges. In 1879 I had
the privilege of visiting
University. I was surprised at the
educational advantages that
affords. Dr. Dawson, it
principal, is one of the most dis-
scientists in the world.
The public school system in the
United States is evidently best
in the world; and universities
in a few years will, doubtless, afford
nearly all the advantage found in
the great German and English
In concluding this I

and the State should work in
in this great cause, and some
of the most difficult problems of
the age can be easily solved-

The true object of education is the
of all man's faculties.
The brightest display of the Infinite
Mind was manifested in the
of the human mind. Man was
placed in this world to be educated
not only for time, but, also, for
eternity. True education is at the
foundation of the solution of all
great problems.
3-Some writers seem to think
that the Jesuits will greatly en-
danger the future of our public
schools. It is certainly true that
the Jesuits have been very naughty
in the past, and have oven been
expelled from Catholic countries.
But I do not think that they will
ever seriously imperil our public
schools. Times have changed and
the Catholic Church would not now
do what she once did. Whatever
be the designs of the Jesuits, they
will find our public schools too
powerful for them. I hope, how-
ever, that their influence will go
towards forcing our school author-
to give more attention to
moral and religions instruction.
The Bible should not

book embodying the grand
and spiritual truths of the Bible
should be taught in every school.

Says one, would be sectarian j
to teach the Bible in the public. J
This is n the
that the Bible is a sectarian
book, which is not true. If the
Bible is sectarian, our civilization
is sectarian, for it is upon
an open Bible. The Continental
Congress appointed a

the delegates were thoroughly dis-

left the hall. Many of them will
go home and advise their Lodges
to surrender their charters. Many
have done this during the past
four and more will
follow their example soon. A

It is very evident that if North
Carolina expects a cabinet position
it will be necessary for the State
to unite on one man and not bring
forward every man within her
borders who has been faithful to
tho Democratic party and gained
some little reputation. Mr. Cleve-
land need not be expected to
point any man who has not been
tested and found to
be honest, true and capable. Only
such men as these will constitute
his cabinet.
How to meet it is the most press-
question with which the Demo-
administration and Congress
will have to deal next year. If it
can be temporarily met in some
way until the new tariff can get
into working order and the
get an opportunity to lop off
the extravagant expenses of the
Government and reduce
to a Democratic basis of
economy everything will be all
right, as the lowered tariff will
certainly add many millions to the
customs receipts of the Govern-
It is of this
edge that quite a number of prom-
Democrats favor issuing
bonds at a low rate of interest for
the money that will absolutely
needed, instead of increasing any
present tax or adding a new one.
It is a very interesting and a very
important question and no fears
need be felt that the best plan, all
things considered, will not be
adopted.
Representative Fitch, chairman
of the House Committee which is
engaged in
of the notorious John I- Daven-
port, Chief IT- S- Supervisor of
for New York, wrote Secretary
Foster, early this week, asking him
not to pass or pay any of Daven-
port's accounts for expenses until
the committee could examine
them. This brought Davenport
to Washington in double-quick
time. His object is to get his ac-
counts approved and paid before
the committee gets at them, other-
wise he knows they will largely
cut down. One thing may put
down as certain. When the first
session of the Fifty-third Congress
adjourns, whether it be extra or
regular, there will be no such office
as T- S. Supervisor of Elections.
The local Democrats, aided by
thousands from the neighboring
States of Maryland and
are to-night largest
political demonstration ever seen
in Washington, and the jam of
people on avenue are
wild with enthusiasm and the air
full of brilliant fireworks.
Mr. Cleveland's alleged remarks
expressing his disgust for office
seekers, which were published here
a few clays ago, helped many a Re-
publican office-holder to enjoy his
Thanksgiving dinner, by making
him feel that he was secure in his
office. Democrats generally, who
believe that when the people of tho
country voted by such an over-
whelming majority for a change
they did not mean merely a change
in the Presidency and in the heads
of the departments but a change
all along the line, are to be-
that Mr. Cleveland ever used
the language attributed to him.

taken from the Old Testament, begin-
