10, 187L.—TRIPLE SHEET; NEw YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 7 should be in part made up of graduates from the public schools, men who understand com- pletely the material with which they have to deal, and who are in hearty sympathy with their work. This having been accomplished, let there be a law passed providing for a cer- dain amount of schooling to each child in the city. Let every child in the streets—whether pedler, bootblack, or idler—be obliged to give an account of himself, and be liable to a penalty if he is not in school his modicum of time. According to the report submitted last year to the Board of Education there “were thirty-five thousand childron in the city not in attendance upon any school. his re- port tells its own story. Comment would but weaken it. It isa trite saying that schools are better than prisons, but it cannot be repeated too often, If for no other reasons but those of self-interest and self-preservation we should ‘make our schools models for the whole world, and then see to it that no child is with- out their advantages. The complex material that fills our streets should be fused into thoroughbred American citizens with as little loss and waste as possible. Every boy and ‘girl will be educated; the question to be con- sidered is whether the education shall be of the streets or of the schools, A Treaty with UoreamHow to Accom. Dlish It. 3 We publish to-day a letter from Cheefoo, in China, in which the subject of our recent little difficulty with the Coreans is treated at length. It is very evident that Admiral Rodgers and Minister Low have accomplished nothing. On the contrary, they have lost ground, and any further attempt on their part to open negotia- tions with the Corean government would be Jess likely to succeed than the first. It is hard to say if the recent gallant attack of our seamen and marines upon the strongly forti- fied position in the Corea is to be considered a victory or not. We certainly did not accom- plish the object aimed at. We lost some val- uable lives and expended much ammunition, two of our vessels were badly damaged and will have to be repaired at a heavy expense ; and, finally, we were compelled to abandon the positions we had carried, because of our ina- bility to hold them. All this to us looks very much like defeat, and it would have been better in the first place not to have attempted force if in a condition unfitted to follow up any advantage gained. No doubt the Coreans consider us as _ having been beaten off. What care they for the loss of a few hundred men when they were able to prevent our forces from moving into the interior of their country? We may rest assured that even now they are ina better condition of defence than ever before, ard any attempt on our part to renew the action would probably end with a repulse even worse than the last. There is no necessity for our continuing hostilities with the Coreans. There is no reason why reinforcements should be sent to our East India squadron in order to enable Admiral Rodgers to undertake a war of invasion, and our government has probably deemed it best to let the matter drop or remain where it is until other Powers see fit to join hands with us and take an active part in bringing the Coreans to terms. It is very possible that what we have aimed at—viz., negotiating a treaty with Corea whereby our seamen who may be unfortunate enough to be shipwrecked on its shores will be protected—can be effected through the gov- ernment of China. It is well known that great deference is paid to the Chinese Emperor by the Corean officials, and if our Minister at Pekin, Mr. Low, would adopt the peaceful method of soliciting the good offices of the Emperor, he would. doubt- less be more successful than he bas been In endeavoring to force an entrance into Corea with the assistance of Admiral Rodgers and the United States flect. Had this plan been tried at first, instead of resorting to arms, suc- cess might have crowned our efforts. Now, owever, it is a matter of doubt, but still worth trying. The Coreans will not now have a2 high an opinion of us and our promises as they had before. They have been told that our fleet appeared in their waters on an errand of peace, and yet war was the result of the visit. To be sure our boats were first fired upon, but not until they had commenced a sur- wey of the river, which the Coreans doubtless know to be for the purpose of determining if the passage of the river by our vessels was practicable ornot. They may be willing to forget the late disturbance, they may forgive the capture of their forts and the slaughter of their people, and be willing to coma to terms through a third party, if approached in the right way; but we dd doubt very much if what we so much desire to obtain can be lad in the manner we first adopted except by the ex- penditure of more lives and more money than the case will warrant. This is a matter for our government to consider well, and it may determine upon a peaceful method rather than upon another appeal to arms, Modest John Bull. Cool, refreshing and pleasant in this self- {Inflated world of ours is the knowledge that there is one people with whom modesty and self-abasement are national traits. England, of course, is the country favored with such a profound bumility, and so far bas this spirit of lowliness been carried that anapostle of self- appreciation has sprung up. We were curtly informed by cable yesterday that The Right Hon. George T. Goschen, in a speech in reply to s toast at the Cutlers’ Feast at Sheffield Jast evening, uttered & protest against the preva- sat habit of seli-cdepreciation on the part of Eng- ishmen, O gushing Goschen! why is this thus? Why wouldst thou remove that cloak of bumil- }ty which we have long admired everywhere that the loud creak of John Bull's boots have been heard? Mr. Goschen knows ,something about stocks and foreign exchanges, but “What 1 know about English modesty” will, if he perpetrates a book thereon, transcend all his fame on ‘Change orin the Cabinet. But mot to Goschen alone be the merit of observ- ing this “‘failing,” as he terms it, of his coun- trymon, Who has heard the typical. Englishman at home singing between his *‘’arf and ‘ari” how “Britannia rules the waves” without seeing in the assumed insolence of his air the modesty Of his nature? When his praise of “the Brit- ish constitution, sir,” borders on the ridiculous another delicious piece of his self-depreciation $ manifesied. When be comvares himself with the German does he uot say they aro “good stock, you know, but not exactly the thing ; too phlegmatic, too plodding.” When the Frenchman is spoken of does he not re- mark, ‘Yes, very polished, very demonstra- tive; but fearfully changeable; wants our English backbone and stamina, by Jove.” The other nations of Europe are held in esteem by him as small, insignificant patches—except it be some of the now annihilated petty German States out of which John Bull chose husbands for his royal famity—the most brilliant in- stance of national hamility ever witnessed. But take the Englishman abroad, and, like a jewel in the dust, the vir'ue of his excessive backwardness sBines out from the depth of his self-depreciation. There is a modest, sbrink- ing being, with whom contemporary history is somewhat acquainted—the English snob. You cannot see all the beauties of his disposition in his native country, since so many of the tints of bis disposition merge into those of his fellow countrymen. Ho must be seen in foreign lands, where, like a pillar in tho desert, his pudicity looms unshaken amid the simoom of ‘‘cheels.” Follow the snob to a pic- ture gallery, and mark how bis gaudy clothes and generally obtrusive, “loud” appearance bespeak his nationality, If he makes any remark, in the tone of humility (which he believes to be at the top of the voice) it is generally such as would convince the Spaniard, Italian or Frenchman who could understand it that such virtue and its owner should be quietly wafted out of the world. In fact, to sum up, whether in America or Europe, the Englishman, with his everlasting importance, his royal family, his army, his cotton. mills, his breweries and himself—the ‘modest violet” is a swaggerer beside him. No one who has experienced the passive air of patronage under which the Englishman, be he peer of the realm or Cockney snob, hides his humility, but will regret the change which Mr. Goschen wishes to introduce, Are the few national virtues of a people to be eradi- cated to please the whim of a haughty member of Parliament? But there is hope yet. It was an after-dinner speech, and it may have been intended asa joke. The man who would be- lieve it a cutting sarcasm on the cuilers and their countrymen should learn to know Eng- lishmen better than he does, People bave lately begun to form a some- what low estimate of England’s prestige, in consequence of the manner in which she weak- ened and sbilly-shallied during that little trouble between France and Prussia. This it is, possibly, which has stirred up the gall of the Anglo-Saxon, though, by the by, Goscben is the son of a German father. Something, then, should be done to show the world that Englishmen have some pride, after all. It is a curious piece of ethnology, but we, sim- ple citizens Of the greatest nation in the world, can only wonder what the typical John Bull will be when his modesty is removed, if, as under its present disguise, it is habited in the most unutterable pomposity and excruciating con- ceit heretofore knowa to mankind. We anx- iously look forward to Mr. Goschen’s idea of what the model John Bull of the future should be, MUSIC AND THE DRAMA. Metropolitan Gossip.
