We would gladly soc swept away every trace of that clase distinction which so seriously delays the progress of the British people. We would wlatiy see the monarchy replaced by a re- Vican form of government, But we dis sent from the wien that any nation shall be “wiped out from the face of the earth.” It is a right and it is a duty to reform wrongs ; and inacountry froe a3 our own, mon nati rally sympathize with all movements of r form in other lands, Yet this very sympathy is the recognition ofa brotherhood of human. ity, which Senator Canventren, in his re- marks, sceme entirely to have ignored. Mr. CARPENTER is a lawyer; yot we should hardly have expected a lawyer to speak in such terms as these of a country from which we have derived our civil rights, among the most valuallo of which are the writ of in fromthe face of fi V) nabeas corpus and the right of trial by jury —— The German Language in the Pubhe 1 Schools, Our German fellow citizens are somewhat 1] exeited over a proposition made by School Commissioner Woop, to abolish the teaching » | of the German language in the public rchools, ‘They say that the three hundred ; | thousand Germans of the city pay one quar. 1 | ter of theexpenses of public education, and that their wish to have their childron taught the language of their native land ought to be respected and obeyed, With pardonable pride they point to the high rank of German gcholars and writers, and quo the testimony of leading American authors }- | to the profit to be derived from studying In addition, they dwell upon the valuo of aknowledge of foreign en | German literature, languages in commercial uffiirs, ‘And insist # | in business. 1. | foree in these considerations our public schools undertake anything be. yond the rudimentary branches of education, it is absurd for them not to include so int e | portant a study as German, | Bat the die , | pute upen the subject only brings more of | forcibly into view the false prinelple upon rr | which the sehools have been and are still managed, Instead ot being regarded as supplying, at the public expense, the short- 1© | comings of poor or depraved parents, and of it | being a protection for the community against n | the inerease of helpless poverty, they are treated as if the State occupied the place of parents altogother, and consequently should do for children all that judicious parents mt would do for them, xd, | ‘This is according to the European and not tho American idea of the duty of govern ment, It originates not in democrac ea, but in monarchies and aristocracies.

Wo recognize thie trath in the case of persons born and reared here, whatever be their pa rontage, and we ought to make haste and secure its recognition as fally in the case of those who have voluntarily taken up their abode with us, One of tho chief obstacles to this obliteration of all distinctions of nativity ethe differences of language, and, rether than porpetuate those differences by educa tion, we ought to try and remove them. By tho domocratic principle that the majority shall govern, the English has become es- tablished os the common language of the country, and the sooner it becomes the only language in general use, the sooner we shall fecl ourselves brethren as we onght. If wo maintain public schools to teach our children German, we must also teach thom French, Italian, Danish, Swedish, and the language of every other nation which sends us immi- grants; and thus we shall prolong, instead of shortening, the time required to make nuine Americans of the foreigners who come to our shores, If, then, it were even simply the question whether the children of Germans should be taught German in private achools, it would be a serious consideration whether it would be dupiral and nly ducted ns. gro’ ¢ pting oe an necomplishment ; f our schools are to be con rament institutions, it is not r that they ought to undertake anything bevond the teaching of elementary English etudios, — Brotherssin-Lawe The reasons why the Hon, 1 ehould be supported for Governe Minsis- sippi are stated as follows by one of the Con- servatives of that State: “1. Te ta Gen, G brother-in-law, “2. Gen, Grant bis brother-indaw, oS They are the brother-in-law of each other, ad ¢ Dent mariied a M 4 A Mississippl tady marry 6. dudge Deut and Mivsissipp! h ottier. He is Jo lady married Dent, Dent is Gen, Grant's brother-in-law, That's whai’s the matter witu Aun,” These are very strong and impreesive eon- siderations, and the fact that the Democrats of Mississippi have by pondering them been led to embrace Judgo Dent, is the best evi- dence of their force. But while they em- brace him and run him for Governor, they ought not to call hima Republican, ‘That is @ political swindle, and is worse than ling offices in WashingtonZor grabbing er Custom House plunder in New York. How can the high#ouled Democrats and Confoderates of Mississippi stoop to the de. gradation of running a candidate for Gov- ernor on false pretences? Dent is a great and good man, and very honest, we have no doubt; but he ought to proclaim him- self a Democrat as woll as a brother-in-law, and then all other Democrats would be ablo to go for him heartily, We observe also that another brother in. law of Gen. Grant, one Dr, Stranen, now Marshal of the District of Columbia, is much spoken of as # candidate for the office of United States Senator from Virginia, Each party seems to be dickering with Sitar who lives in Richmond, though his offeial place is in Washington; and the reason for thus attempting to seduce him is that he is Gen, Gray's brotherinlaw, Now, it may be that he would make a good Senetor, but the experience of the ‘Tennessceans, who that a city like New York ought not to refuse its children so essential an clement of success It is useless to deny that there is much d so long as official functionaries follow a man trom the uet in all circumstances, a for instance when he he shall » ho whall live, # he shall be permitted to carry vexatious fortunately never know of except by hearing or reading In perfoct consistency with this policy, such governments also take charge of I by notions acquired under @ mornarehical government when they demand that their language «hall are as a class Why dren areall to be educated in public schools ad nowhere clse?

Rrothersinlaw are a great comfort when they are confined to domestic life; but when they trade in you and sell you, and make you the means of filling them with the spoils of office, and disgrace you and disgust your real friends, they become a nuisance, It is pos sible that before any man is pinated to the Presidency hereafter, the number of his brothers in-law and cousins will be carefully tained, sae ee aed The Tammany General Committee, refas ing to follow the lead of the would-be Democratic “organs,’” and adopting instead the suggestions of the independent Sux, have called a mass ing of Democrats at Tammany Hall to-night, “to protest in behalf of this great metropoli aguinst the weak administration of Federal affairs upon the great question of American citizeuship. ‘The purticular instances referred to are the con- tinged unprisonment of Haeive in England, and the execution of Americans in Cuba, ‘The rank and file of the Democracy do not relish the notion of t's truckling to European aristoc- but agreo with Tuw Su in thinking it high time for os to teach these gentry that we are not to be triflod with, our Governm: racie: sae ak Private lotters from England say that the approaching rowing mateh between the Oxford and Harvard evews is exciting an interest not in- fevior in breadth and iutensity to that which marked the yacht race in whieh the America was ju 1851, Both erews are busy with a arse of training, and their movements led by the newspapers with the great. est particularity, The result will be hailed as a 1 defeat victory, aa the se every patriotic Ameri countrymes —— case may b a hopes for Though the Ton.
