It assumed the existence of a body likely to be so far re- movel by rank or social position from the common drudgery of ordinary life asto be able to devote themselves to studies of & remote, secluded, stract kind, and to fix their attention on certain stately standards of literature and of character whose distance from every-day existence made them pecu- liarly impressive to thoughtful minds, It took for granted that balanced, matured, disciplined powers wero the product to be sought, and that immediate knowlodge, practical information, mental farniture for ordinary working occasions was not so much of secondary moment as utterly irrelevant, and undesira- ble among the higher orders, Training of the facul- ties was the poiut, and such training of the faculties as was conducive to a calm, sober, abstracted, con- sorvative exerciso of them, under the influence of tra- dition, It was not popular education certainly, for popular education was not contemplated; but it was severely practical education for the work expected of the intellectual classos, Such an education, it is manifest, is wholly un- suited o our times and people. Our social life is planted on another basis, and regunlated by another principle. The problem with us is, how to educate all the people for the work they bave to do. No speci business falls on the select few. Religion does n goverument does not; literature does not; the con- duct of social existence does not—any work may de- volve on any man, because all positions are open to all men, and all work in America is severely practical in the common usage of the term. All work demands active faculties, ready invention, store of useful in- formation, knowledge of the actual state of affairs, and skill to turn it to advantage. Government with us is a practical business, conducted on business prin- ciples, and best conducted by men of native iutelli- gence, well acquainted with the history of the country and the tendencies of the popular will. The states- wan must be a man of ready expadients, ample co- temporaneous kuowledge aud strong popular sympa- thies, rathor than a man versed in antiquity, learned in precedents and strong in etate traditions. religion, under our voluntury system, is a businoss best conducted by practieal men, that is, by men of keon practical understanding and common sense, in | fyll quuumuuicaticn with (g wanls 4ud wishos of the the #0 the ge would not occ ment | Even | TURBDAY, AUGUST %3, 18G0. ; £ | o | G multitude, The most effective preacher is no more offective for his I biblical and classical lore; mot prompter after mora! earnestness; and an intelligence well furnished with immediately available information is his bost outfit. A state church requires a state clergy, amply endowed with erudition, But the peo- ple require pastors and preachers in the same condition of lifo and on the same plaue of experience with them- solves. For the rest—the commercial classes, the trading classes, tho industrial and agricultural classes demand the same thing with modifications. They may hold positions in church and state, and pust be liberally instructed in departments generally con- nected thorewith; they must be qualificd to become intelligent voters, rospectable politicians, decent writers and speakors, passable men of affairs; but above all they inust be qualified to become good far- meors, able mochanics, competent engineers, capable mon in practical sciences aud arts, fair mathemati- cians, calculators, chemists, thrifty economists, and gonorally good men of all work. The great business of the country is now, and will for a long time be, the development of its material resources, the comfortable subsistence of the common people, the application of discoveries to industry, the social emancipation of the “masses” (begging pardon for the phrase), the adjust- ment of honest relations between different orders of men, and various departments of labor, the accommo- dation of laws to liberties, and the establishment of institutions for culture, health and entertainment such as bofit republican communities. This business de- mands the uvited efforts of all Americans, from the least to the greatest, in their several spheres of ability; and as far as education can advance it, it must be ad- vanced by the common schools, from the primary schools of the village to the high schools, like M- Granvillo and Antioch, and the seminaries of more pretension. Even uviversities, like the noble one of Michigan, will be abundantly occupied with this labor. The few that can afford the luxury of an elaborately trained mind and a finished scholarship will find abundant accommodation and respectable facilities in our older *colleges.” If they need a finer culture than they can find there, they must hire private tutors orstudy in Europe. Butour best colleges are waking up to the idea that they are planted in America, that their patrons are Americans, that the young men who come to them are to grow up into the responsibilitics of American duty: aud they areadmitting the import- ance of giving the new system a predominance over the old. This was the burden of discourse among the Alnmoi of Harvard at their recent anniversary. No cligno of theorists is laboring to effect this change. The genius of American life is producing it; the ge- nins of American life is demanding that all the wealth and power and talent that is given to education in Awerica is noue too much to be given toward the equipment of our young men and women for the duties immediately before them—the imperative duties of a new people, in a new country, under new laws of so- cial existence and new principles of civil and political oz agizafion, The tendency bewailed at Geneva is simply a *audency toward an educational systen 62 woll suited to the United States as the old system is to Europe. The time may come when we can devote ourselyes to the production of fine scholars, ** com- plete in all the branches of a liberal education;™ but that time is remote as yet, and will not be urgent enough to engage the attention of our educators at 11 the present condition of American life shall wsiderably modified. s LSS CLEAN STREETS, The Hon.

Yet it was not ratified by the Kebel States because they liked it, but becanse they must: hence, it was not really ratified at all, if the doctrines of the late Plnladeiphia Convention But they are not sound. — e are sound. All onthusiastie wid sincere men have a passion for prediction. Thas an esteemed correspondent writing to us the other day upon the subject of capital punish- ment ventures to prophesy the certain abolition of the death penalty, The Inquisition has been swept out of existence; dueling has been prohibited; public hangings bave been abolished—**next in course will yw capital punishment itself, the last of this bar- barous, grim and impious traiy We are reminded by this of a prediction made by & philanthropic English nobleman, Lord Nugent, who said, A. D., 1545: “The gibbet has not fifteen years' life in it. If in #5360, fifteen years hence, there shall be & death punishment existing, if wo shall till be in this world together, reproach me with being the falsest prophet, the verfest fool that ever presumed to talk of the advancing spirit of the times.” To this Chambers's Edinburgh Journaladded : *We cordially agree with Lord Nugent, aud undertake a share inthe hazards to which he here exposes himself.” Nearly six years have passed since the expiration of the pe- riod fixed upon, and thoy hung a mau only the other day in England. Uufortunately. great reforms can never be accom- plished by predicting them. The death penalty was in such bad oder in Massachusetts twenty years ago that it was almost impossible to hang anybody; now they perform the work there with but little protest from a fow individual The gallows, after the execu- tion of Prof. Webster, experienced the benefit of a re- action, and the hanging has been pretty steady ever since. Itisa matter in which very few people take any interest, because nobody expects to be hung. The courts will go on strangling culprits forover unless somebody sees fit to undertake the conversion of legis- lators to common humanity and common sense. The Richwond Examiner foreibly says: «Several of the Conservative papers at the North aro tating the question whetder there will bea revolution tempted by the Kadicals if they are beaten at the tons, We do not think they will try anything of the sort, @ wea who aro excoedingly viokut when all the their side; wba roar at you like Tions, when powerful and prosperous; bui the moment theie: sido-becomes the losing one, they become as wild as sucking ves, and as timorous os @ deer. * * * No; the Radiomy 1l make no revolution; however much they may threatso, vapor, and bully, * * * Their morak nature will shriuk trom the crime of vnsnecessful rebeilior. —The Ezaminer intorlards the above with sundry fulse and irritatingcharges which we suppress, copying ouly so much as is commendable. It is very true, O Rebel eotemporary ! that car sort, * the raoment their side bacomes the losing one, are mild as sucking doves "—in other woxds, whon outvotad, we acquiesce in the popular verdict. Virginia looks wp from a thousand scenes of carnage and desolation to curso you tor gosding her into a very ditferent counrse. The legitimate result of vour policy and of ours is exhib- ited in the contrasted North and South of ta<day.

For streets in which the sewers, gas and water-pipes Lave been laid it is undoubtedly the best pavement in use, and, if properly put down, will outlast cither the Bel. gian or the Russ. It will, perhaps, prove more expens sive here than in the West, because of the differonce in the price of lumber; but, if fairly tried, will, we doubt not, eventually prove successful beyond sy former experiment. y The Evening Post mistakes its ingenuity for convio. tion when it strjves to prove lukewarmness on our part to the cause of the Southern loyalists and earnest loyalty on its own to that of the great Union party in its contest against the President’s retrogradation. Wo invite The.Post to turn back its records, and tell ug the precise time when it left off its attempt to make reapectable the policy which provoked the massacre in New-Orleans. Is our neighbor yet satisfied that there is not the ghost of & chaunce for cong| out of such 0dds and ends as assembled at the Phila- delphia Convention a- great free-trade Democratie/ Republican party, with just morals enough to boast @ few anti-Slavery instincts saved from a bartering ex< pediency, and make a plausibly intelligent betrayaf of principle? The Post ‘has found itself dreaming, It must not accuse others of not being wide awake. To blame Cong.ess for not turning aside from the great and engrossing duty of legislation to makes party in the South, strikes us as the bight of absurdity, Few expected that the President would prove treacherous to the principles which elected bhim, and The Post is unusually late in believing it, if we have ever understood it to mean that he has been guilty of more than a blunder. The President’s ** policy,” iy is well known, had possession of the South before Cone gress even met, and that policy, backed by all the creatures of reconstruction, stood in the way, opposed every measure passed by the ropre- sentatives of the people. If some deemed those measures to protect and invigorate the Uniom sentiment of the South not strong enough, The Post was not of the number. For the rest, all that we hava to say may be briefly summed: If the President had not betrayed his millions pf constituents by the most shameful recreancy in Afnerican polities, and if thosa who believe with The Post had cordially resisted that betrayal, instead of attempting to serve two masters with balf a heart,we should bave had to-day a strongon Union party in the South. We are ata loss to per- ceive how the Union party threw away its opportun. ity. We can easily understand how it was stoleu; and e know who blinked over the theft.

Generosity with Pablic Money. Mr. E. P. Walton, exM. €. for Vermont, in a notice of a wrangle in that State comcerning eertain votes of ane other ex-Member, sees fit to say: “ Now a little more on the Book resolution. Greeley, who first called it * & swindle.” knew it was just and right; for hex bimself, when in Congress, voted for these very books, not for the Library of Congress as we did, but for himself. Why, then, did Greeley censurs purchase of thess books for the brary? His reasons were both personal ard political. Whea Greoley voted to bave Congress buy the books for Mimself, (Giales and Seaton wers bis brother Whigs: but'wlen we pro- no-ea 0 buy the same books for the Library, Greeley wis & publican but Gales dead, and Col. Seaton's Intelligencer was not quite Republics o, for the most eentemptivle of li reasons—out of mere personal aud political spite—Greeloy was unjust to Col. Seatou, and disbonorable sad unfair o bis nx'n political fricnds in Congress who vuted' for the tion.” —This gross and utterly wanton attack s¢oms to require # few words of reply. They are these: ' I. Mr. Greeley, while in Congress, nevor conseiously and purposely voted for the purchase of ANY dooks what- ever. It was asserted, as a good joke, that lie once voted by mistake (by rising in Committee to be connted) to pay for certain books which had been ordered by Congress at the preceding session when he was not a Member. This story [possibly true] was cireulated only because be was known to be actively opposing the purchase of apy books whatever. 1L The books distributed to hum as a Member were by him directly forwarded to the Corporation Library io the City Hall of this City as b longing rightfully to that Cit and in that Library they still remain, Az all eveats, no one of them hus ever in any manner owured to. Aim. Al ho bad to do with them was to pay from his ow3 pocked some $6 for their transmission to New-York, I11. As to the prepriety of buying 100 copies or 30 for the Library of Cougress of a st oft bookswith whieh that Library was already supplied, Mr. Walton has 3 right to his own opinion. €wrs is known to be; that Gongress has no right thus to lavish the public meney, and thatto do it ia a time of Civil War, when the Government is subsist ing by forced loans.and rushing into debt at the rate of Forty or Fifty Millions per month, was little ahoct of treas son. H 1f Mr. Walton wishog it believed tiat we didinot objoct to such purchases when in Congress, he surely knows bet- ter. And, as his article shows that Le supportad the meas. ure, not because the Library wanted the books, but bes cause Col. Seaton (the seller) wanted’ the money, we do ot see that we need say anything an that head.
