National Republican AUaifSTA. <»a. TUESDAY MORNING l». IMS For PRESIDENT Or tub United States: ULYSSES S, Un\T. ACQUITTAL ADVANTAGES. There seems to be a diversity of opinion rospevtirqj the consequences of tlie acquit tal of I’resiiient Johnson, should such 1* the result of the Impeachment trial. We confess, however, that wc coincide with the view taken by the New York Sun, which contends that the law of compensation ap plies to the impeachment trail, as it docs to most of the affairs of life -and that the advantages of acquittal, if there should Iks an acquittal, would not inure altogether to Mr. Johnson. On the contrary, the Re publican party would share them in more than an equal degree. In the tirst place; a verdict of acquittal would have the effect to unite and consoli date the Republican party. It would pro duce somewhat such an influence on the party as the tirst Bull Run did on the loyal masses of the North. It would enkindle a bitter, resolute, determined partisan feeling, the strong current of which would drown minor jealousies and personal bickerings. It would rouse up a tierce hatred toward the party which lias manifested sympathy for the President. The feeling thus engendered would con centrate at once ujion General Grant, and would carry him into the White House on the crest of its wave. It would give to the Republican party tiie vast advantage of a feeling of enthusiasm, in which it is at present deficient. Another consequence of acquittal would !>c an increased confidence among the Con. servatives in the prudence, discretion, and stability of the Republican party. It would appear to them that the leading Republican Senators had risen above the thraldom of party spirit, and exhibited a degree of independence and conscientiousness worthy of all praise. Let the Republicans, therefore, take com fort in the probability that the wind front acquittal may blow them more good than it will to their opponents. ENFItA N CII IS EM EN T. There are many men in the State of Georgia who openly opposed secession until the ordinance was passed by the Convention, after which time, it is well known, no man was safe in the State who. advocated longer the old Union of States. All were forced to acquiesce in secession, leave the State, or suffer the pains and penalties of treason against the Southern Confederacy. Many of the original Union men remained quiet in the State, giving no otiier aid and comfort to the rebellion than they were absolutely forced to do, in order to save their property and them selves from prison, banishment, or death. Many of this class of men never did sym pathize with the rebellion, but always sympathized witli the Federal Government: and yet many of these gentlemen were forced, during the four years of war, to do tilings for which they are now disfran chised by the Reconstruction Acts of Congress. We arc pleased to know that this class of men have been provided for. The original secessionists, who forced Georgia into rebellion, are the men who should be made to suffer the penalties of treason. All men who have acted in harmony with the Republican party in trying to reconstruct the State, should be held in grateful remembrance, and relieved of all their political disabilities. Justice demands this, at the earliest possible period. THE I'EACKFUL HALLOT. Nothing is further from the truth, than the charges persistently made by Demo cratic journals, that Congress is seeking to place the Southern States under a military dictatorship. Congress it intent upon the immediate r' a *oration of self-government in ail the bi,. <s lately in rebellion, and upon the early admission of all of them to representation in the national councils. The loyal people have insisted that with *-la very should perish the oligarchy based •upon it. They have demanded that the principles of the declaration should he embodied in the constitutions of the reor ganized Stntcs. Upon that basis Congress has zealously pressed its plans for recon pt ruction. The whole policy of Congressional reconstruction is designed to render the Southern people independent of executive dictation. One purpose in hastening the States back to tlicir places in the Union, is t > guard against the dangers of arbitrary power, and to maintain popular govern ment against the aggressions of ambition and despotism. For that purpose Congress is jnstilied in employing all the resources at its command. If it errs at all, it is on the side of the earliest practical reconstruc tion. In spite of transient howling by hostile partisans, and of doubt sold hesita tion 011 the part of timid friends, this work Congress must accomplish. The Southern States must be brought back. They must govern th An selves. They must have rep rescntation in the House and Senate. Military control must be reduced to its minimum. The sooner all this is done the better. The Union restored, the States reorganized, military power restricted, and peace domi nant in fact an«l form throughout the land, ure the results w hich Congress must present as the fruits of its policy, the justification for all its measures. Truk Ui.vk.- A young lady with blue gaiters, bine dress, blue sacque, blue lace collar, blue bat, blue feather, blue parasol, blue fan, blue kid gloves, blue stockings, blue eyes, and tuiqoise bracelet, necklace and ear rings, attracted attention a day or two ago on one of the New York ferry boats. FINANCIAL. There are far too many people among us who are ready to rally under the l»annor of those who can shout the loudest, "Down with the bondholders l" "Down with the National Bauks!" “Give us repudiation! etc. Let those who urc disposed to follow these “blind leaders of the blind,” who foolishly imagine that they have nothing to lose, but everything to gain, by the sud den overthrow of the national honor and national credit, ponder ami pause ere they plunge beyond their depth ami the nation's deptli in this unknown sea. If there arc evils in our present system, us doubtless there arc—for nothing that human wisdom has yet devised is perfect—still the ques tion returns: Will the sudden overthrow ot our present system cure the evil ? It were easy to show that the majority of the theories and systems proposed by the gen tlemen who abuse the bondholders and assault the National Ranks arc impractica ble and visionary to the last degree. But admitting, for the sake of argument, that there are evils in our present system, still there is a question as to “whether it be not better to bear the ills we have than fly to others we know not ot."’ There is one fact patent to all—a Nation al Bank note is current and taken without question in every part of the country. Can a better circulating medium be devised than this, except gold ? and gold is not so convenient. As yet wo have seen no sys tem which has been proposed ns a substitute which, in our judgment, is at all compara ble to it. ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT. We find the following abstract of the Articles of Impeachment, containing all the material points, in the New York Even ing Post —which is republished for the benefit of our readers : Artice I, declares that the President is sued an order for the removal of Mr. Stan ton from the office of the Secretary of War, the Senate then being in session, intending thereby to violate the Tenure of Office act. Article 11, charges the President, there then being no vacancy in the War Office, authorized Gen. Thomas in writing to act ns Secretary ml interim, the Senate then being in session, and with intent to violate the Tenure Act and the Constitution. Article 111, is like the second, except that it alleges tlutt the President appointed Thomas Secretary of War without the advice and consent of the Senate, and without authority of law, and with the intent to violate the Constitution. Article IV, alleges that the President conspired with Thomas and other unknown persons to prevent Stanton, by threats, from acting as Secretary of War, thereby vio lating the Conspiracy Act of July, 1801, and the Constitution. Article V, charges that the President conspired with Thomas and others to prevent the execution of the Tenure Act; and that in pursuance of this conspiracy, he and they attempted to hinder Stanton, by un lawful means, from acting as Secretary of War. Article VI, alleges that ttic conspirator intended by force to get possession of the public property in the War Department, contrary to the Conspiracy Act of July, 1801, and with the purpose of thus violating the Tenure Act. . Article VII, is very much like article VI, merely adding that the conspiracy to get possession of the property in the War Office was formed with the intent to violate the Tenure Act, on.ittmg’all allegations as to the act of July, IStil. Article VIIJ, declares that the ad interim appointment of Thomas was made with the intent on the part of the President to con trol the military appropriations for tin; Wat Department in an illegal manner, intruding thereby to violate the Tenor Ait. Article IN, charges that the President, on the 22d of February, 1867, instructed Gen. Krnory (the commander, of the troops in Washington) that the act of March, 1867, which requires all military orders to he given through Gen. Grant, was unconstitu tional, and that the President tried to persuade Emory to disregard this law, and receive orders directly from him. Article X, relates to the speeches made by the Pr.sident at Washington, itt August, 1866, about Congress ban dug on tin; verge of the Government, and it Cleveland and St- Louis, in the following September, while ‘‘swinging around the circle.” Article XI, clung' > that the I’p -i lent declared in a speech at Washington, in August, 1860, that the Thirty Ninth Con gress was not a constitutional body, but a Congress of only a part of the States; that he thus denied that its legislation was valid and obligatory upon him, except so tor ns he approved tl e same, and also denting its power to propose amendments to the Con stitution ; and, in pursuance of this denial, unlawfully devised means to prevent the execution of the Tenure Act, by trying to prevent Stanton from resuming his duties as Secretary of War; and also devised means to prevent the execution of the Act requiring army orders to be given through Gen. Grant ; and also devised means to prevent the execution of “the Act to provide for the more efficient government of the rebel States,” commonly called the Recon struction Act. These offence- are popularly called misprison of perjury— i. c., trying to induce officers to violate their oaths, or devising plans to violate one’s o vn oath, by refusing to execute these laws. CONS Eli I A 'fIVE Wade Hampton has written his friends in Richmond, that if the National Democratic Convention will guarantee a candidate who believes in, and will stand firm for State rights, it may count on the undivided vote of the Democracy of South Carolina. This is precisely the style of promises which South Carolina used to make. If we take Hampton for an exponent of tin; State, South Carolina still hugs the phantom of Nullification, Secession and Slave Aristocra cy. In this promise lurks the danger of permitting the Democratic parly to again control the administration. To it the South always trusted both for carrying out their schemes before the war, and also for success during the rebellion. The old regime still relies upon the Democratic party North, for the revivifying of its departod power, In the conservative clement of the country the slave aristocracy of the South hopes for a backward movement until the voice of the South shall he the voice of the nation. Hut Mr- Hampton does not represent tlm sentiment of South Carolina to day. A change has come over the spirit of her dreams. She w ill never again lead the van o( Nullification and Stuto Rights. The Democratic party may, by nominating an old time Conservative, Slate Rights candi date, secure the party vote in South Caro lina, hut that vote will not he a feather in the scales. South Carolina has declared for restoration, progress, republicanism. It is useless tor Wade Hampton or any other anti-wur political codger to attempt to wheedle her into a backward march to the tune of "States Rights.” Besides, the Democratic party has enough on its hands nt present to straighten out the little “onpleassrittm” which the bond question has introduced into its cabinet. It has no time to listen to the siren music of “ State Rights.'’ —Utica (N. Y.) Herald. f Comisuß lasted. THE NEW SYSTEM OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. One of the most important subjects of which the recently elected Legislature shall have to dispose, is tho adoption of a thorough system of general education, which, in the languago of tho Constitution, shall “be forever freo to all children of tho State —the expense of which shall he provided for by taxation, or otherwise." The people of Georgia appreciate, at this tiuie, more sensibly than ever before, the real importance of this subject. Circum stances having combined to concentrate their thoughts on the adoption o( a certain lino of policy, whereby their own, and their children’s, future wolfare may be enhanced, the indis pensnbility of a systematic, practical educa tion, looms up bolore them in grand propor tions. In a word, the people and children arc ripe for just such a system of schools ns this progressive ago demands. 1 have given this subject no little consid eration ; and, feeling a profound interest in the welfare ol the boys and girls of Georgia, l have determined to venture once more into the public prints, for the purpose of making a few suggestions. In doing so, I have tho proud satisfaction of knowing that selfish interests are beneath tny feet, and that I am actuated by pure motives. The school system now in vogue is, for many reasons, a miserable one; although, in this city and county, through the exertions of the present Board of Education, the children, generally speaking, are deriving from it more real benefit than at any pre vious period. Since tho Ist of January, 1868, the standard of the schools has been greatly elevated, and their efficiency aug mented, while the most gratifying signs of improvements, in point of studiousness, punctuality, and good conduct, have been, and are still, visible iti the pupils. The knowledge of this fact is the more encour aging. when we consider the disadvantages by which both, teachers and pupils, arc sur rounded. Os all the County Public Schools in this city, there is but one which has any posi tively convenient appointments. With the exception of the Augusta Freo School and the Factory School, all other buildings used for school purposes are owned or rented by tho teachers, who did not receive compen sation for services rendered during 1867 until January 21st of the present year. Notwithstanding this, those teachers have eontiuucd at their post, faithfully discharg ing their duty. The majority of them, in order to minister to the wants of their families, have been forced to daily extra work, after spending six hours in the school room—thus consuming the very time every true teacher desires to devote to study ; for, it must be borne in mind, that knowledge laid in store five or ten years since will not quite suffice for the proper instruction of the children of today. Every day new and striking discoveries are made in every department of science. Modes of instruction should keep pace with the march of events. Men, as a general rule, dislike innovation; Having become wedded to a certain set of ideas, be they ever so antiquated, they are loath to surren der them. The present, ami ever improving, mode of imparting instruction, is as superior to that which obtained eighty years ago, as the steam car is to the stage coach. The “ ‘Seven General Rules,’ with their numerous incom prehensible except ions, the whole constituting an apt illustration of tho famous definition of language, which makes it a ‘contrivance for concealing thought,”’ would not be tolerated at this time. in Georgia, we need every new and valuable educational improvement. Home will object that wc have no right to hope tor an improved system of schools. On the contrary, I believe that wc h ive reason not only to expect, but demand it. We have been crawling, as it wi re, for scores of years, surely we urn able to walk now. Wo have the will, and there is a trite saying, especially applicable to our case If, in littccn years, the Prussians, without the beuefit of ex ample, originated, developed, and rapidly improved a system ol Common Schools, may we not hope, with the lights before us, to do equally j\.; much in two thirds the same time, I desire to invito attention to a system which appears to me to be extremely desir able. But, in suggesting its adoption, I make no pretensions whatever to originality. The, Constitution provides for the appoint ment by the Governor, with the consent of the Senate, of a Slate School Commissioner. There should also Ire a Superintendent for each of the counties. First of ali, there should ho established in each and every .school district in the State, a PRIMARY setloOl., for boys and girls, together, presided over by a lady teacher, whose education "lias ren dered her capable of holding honest and intelligent opinions concerning school mat tors, and especially on questions regarding her own duties, and the interests of Iter own school” "It is by lady teachers that some of the best ideas have been advanced, and improvements suggested, in educational matters.” In these primary s bools, pupils might be requited to remain until the elements, hunt the Alphabet to and through the Second Reader, have been thoroughly mastered, at which tune they could be advanced into the INTK It ,\l KOI *T K SC 11(101,, fur boy • and girls separate, where they should be carefully instructed in Spelling, Reading (through Third Reader), Writing, Primary Arithmetic, and Primary Geography, the lust by means of map-drawing from nremury and usual recitations; nt the satisfactory conclusion of which studies, pupils might be advanced into the ORAM MAIL SCHOOL, for hoys and girls separate, where they should Ite tnight Spelling and Defining, Composition or Gramm ir, Mental and Writ ten Arithmetic, Intermediate Geography (map drawing continued), and Writing. Having passed a satisfactory examination, the pupil i.i ready for the moil school, boys and girls separate, or for active business life. If, however, the pupil do sires to enter the High School, the privilege of being instructed in Ihc Classics, higher Mathematics, Physical Geography, etc., would he nccordcd him or her. And having passed through the prescribed course in this school, the pupil may, if desirous ol he coming a teacher, he inducted into tho statu normal school, two of which should bo established—one for tho whites, and one for Hie colored poo plo. In this institution the course of study would be, in many respects, peculiar, and at the same time very comprehensive. This scheme, 1 doubt not, will appear too high for us. 1 believe it can he successfully inaugurated. '(lie expenses attendant upon it will he little in excess of those of tlm present system, while tho beneficial result* that will arise therefrom cannot he easily over-estimated. Del us compare tho expenses of tho pre sent, with those of tho proposed system— taking Richmond county as an example : In 1W57 the audited accounts of thu teachers of white schools in this county (the colored schools wore not then under county patronage), amounted to about 112,000. This year it will take fully $25,- 000 to pay the teachers employed, paying them at tho rate of seven cents per day for each pupil in actual attendance. Now, under tho system 1 propose, we cun bare in this city Eight Primary schools (lour for whito and four for colored children), Teach er's salary, $300.00 oor annum $2,400 Eight Intermediate schools, Teacher's salary, SOOO.OO SI,BOO Eight Grammar achoois, Toucher's sala ry, $1200.00 $9,1500 Four lilgh achoois, Teacher’s salary $1500.00 SO,OOO Expenses of schools outside city limits $2,200 Total $25,000 Os tho Intermediate and Grammar schools, four of each uro for each race—two for each box- Os the High schools, two for each race—one for each sex. The system would, in itself, constitute a standing incentive to every class of pupils. All of its advantages cannot, of course, be detailed in a limited newspaper article. True enough, it could not be made to apply in every particular to the rural districts, sparsely populated as some of them are; •but that is no reason why cities, and other suitable localities, should not bo favored with it. Tho wants of the districts just referred to can bo supplied by means of Primary and Intermediate schools united in one, and the circuit system—hero a week and there a week. Whatever system is adopted, teachers should bo paid fixed s dunes, monthly cr quarterly—“discriminating in favor of known ability, experience, and well proved success.” By all means, let us rid ourselves of that seven cents per day encumbrance. VOCAL MUSIC. In the bill, providing for the establish,neat of the schools contemplated, should be incorporated a clause, requiring vocal music to be taught in ail the divisions, from Pri mary to Normal. Song always draws closer its participants. There is wisdom in that Eastern saying : “The world is saved alone by the breath of the school children !” “As a mental exercise, also, music fixes attention, concentrates thought, cultivates quick and nice discernment; while, as a physical exercise, it brings into healthy action those vital organs which cannot bo reached so effectually in any other way.” In conclusion, I may be permitted, in the 1 itiguage ot a distinguished contemporary, to ask : “What objects are Public Schools de signed to subserve, and what accomplish ? Is it enough that the education of the child ren ot the State be restricted to the simple English elements, or is it a wiser political economy to elevate all to the highest attain able standard—the highest standard possible atid practicable?” “I think it may be safely affirmed that a system of Public Schools, to be enduring and useful in the highest degree, to be an orna ment, pride, and blessing in a community, should be of a very completo and high char acter, so wisely constituted as to subserve the interests and obtain the confidence of all; the cordial good will and patronage of all— not of the poor and middle classes merely, but ot all, rich and poor, equally, and alike. Such a patronage and such a support is a sure guarantee of tho success of a Public School system. It is its triumph, ensuring brilliant and glorious resalts in the rich and enduring fruits of intelligence, industry, virtue, and thrilt. Tho school system, to resell these conditions, should be studied carefully, and bo wisely adapted to our peculiar wants.” Martin V. Calvin. Augusta, Ga., May 18th, 1868. CHIPS.

The latest "right” claimed by our ambitious country women, is th it of admission to all the secrets and immunities of tho Masonic fraternity. They have somehow come to suspect that the side degree of the Kastcru Star degree, to which they have been admitted, has been only a tub to Hi ■ whale. They now demand that im more of this deception lie practiced upon them, mnl declare that they will not rest nor leave the field till they are taken into lull relationship with ail tile rights and privileges of that ancient order. They say that if Masonry began at the building ol the Temple, tlm exclusion ol women was no part of the original constitution since the Most Worshipful King Solomon would not couiitc nance any institution that denied the equality of women. Did not the Queen ol Sheba, say they, leave the "South” and pay her respects to this first Master? Hence, women of the present age arc wronged and cheated out of one of the rights originally enjoyed by the sex. Well, perhaps it de pends upon their persistence whether they succeed in becoming Masons. Good reasons arc given, however, why they may expeet this to ho the last of tho “rights” which they shall obtain.— Utica (N. Y.) Herald. FOR RENT AND SALE.
