ghe failt %ittss. City Printer—Official Paper LARGEST CfTY CIRCULATION. AUUUBTA, OA.I WEDNESDAY MORNING...O*I. IT. ISM Education. Among the most important interests of a State or community i* Education, la a Republican form of government, particularly should this interest be at tended to and fostered. The people heaa are said to be their own marten, the shapers of their social and po litical destinies—in short the sovereigns of the land. If this be the case, how necessary and important it is thnt they should be educated, and properly edu cated 1 It is not a smattering of Latin and Greek, the solving of a lew problems of Euclid, or a superficial knowledge of Philosophy aud its kindred studies, that will fit men and women for social and political positions in life. These ore not the things that are to construct vise statesmen and intelligent women —moral fathers and mothers of the Republic. There is, undoubtedly and undeniably, a defect in American education. It savors too much of what Dickens so graphically describes and so persistently denounces in some of his novels, as “ the forcing system ” —a kind of crowding into a few jears studies that ought to take a lifetime of earnest find devoted attention to master them. The moral and physical education, too, is too often neglected, and the result is we have a nation of superficial scholars—men who can make a show by fine displays of words, aud cover up all deficiencies by a display of such accomplishments as im press the minds of the masses with a belief that they are scholars of the most extraordinary proficiency. This display consists in the use of Webster's ten and fifteen syllable English words, mis-pro nounced foreign languages,and a jargon, purporting to be Latin, Greek, and pro bably Sancscri* and Hebrew, on the part of the men ; with a slight knowledge of music, a lew embroidery pati.-n :.s, and a smattering of the aforesaid unfortunate classics, on the part of the women. They learn nothing of the every-day duties of life; they learn little or noth ing of household management, of prac tical knowledge, and their physical development is wholly neglected. There are exceptions to this as to all other rules, but the whole system needs revision, and those whose duty it is to educate the young—the legislators and teachers of the land should see to it that a change for the better should take place. Something less theoretical and superficial, and more practical and thorough is what is needed—something that will suit every position in society; something uniform; something free from sectional and sectarian prejudices. In the theological institutions of the vari ous denominations, peculiar religious views can be taught; but in the general and secular schools, this should be avoided, and sectional animosity banish ed Irom all of them. Education should also be free to the people—not left to counties, communi ties, or States, but established and foster ed by the State Governments. Such a system as that of Louisiana is worthy of attention. It will, with some little im provement, and to a considerable extent, accomplish the desired object. The colored people also need educa tion, and this shonld also be given to them under the auspices ot the State. They are now, legally, citizens of the United States, and it is to the interest of our people to make them good citi zens. The snbjcct is, as we have said, alto gether one of great importance, and should receive the careful consideration of our people and our Legislature. We regret that we have not the time to do more than thus briefly allude to it; but to those whom we have just alluded, we leave it for further consideration. That “Usjust Wak.”—The Macon Citizen has the following very just re marks : “Our neighbor, who, in times past, has, in connection with the press of the South, been under a thousand and one obligations to the Southern Express Company for favors, under a liberal dead-head system, when the mails were in a state of suspension, shonld not de nounce that Company for waging an “unjust war” against the National. We have seen nothing but fair compe. tition in the operations of the Southern Express Company. It has made no war upon its young rival, just or nnjust; and there is no necessity whatever to get up a prejudice against the Southern Ex press Company on the subject of the existing difficulties of the National. These difficulties will, we hope, be sat isfactorily adjusted, and both Compa nies be sustained. But wh-.-iher «r dot, we can not lift a band to strike u Com. pauy to which we are under so many obligations.

Almost as much mischief arises from ignorant care as from want of care. The mere dusting of pictures is a work requiring some judgment; it should be done with the softest of feather brushes, and even these are dangerous when the picture has a tendency to scale or blis ter. Pictures are often carelessly wiped, many persons believing that a silk handkerchief can do no harm; but a glauce at any old collection, and even at some of our own public ones, will show how this lias been abused; in many pic tures scales have been torn off, the can vases are, cracked all round the edges, the corner pieces and bars of the stretch er marked on the surface by undue pres sure of the hand of the careless operator as he polishes them; at times rubbing even the paint away, but at least rubbing in the dust rather than removing it. Perhaps the best preservative for old pic tures beyond dusting them with the feath er brush, is to have them tenderly wiped with cotton wool about once a year, by the hands of some person qualified to' do this with care and judgment. The backs of all pictures, whether oil or water color, should be covered with painted cloth to exclude air and dust. 111-ventilated rooms are another source of mischief to works of art. Hundreds of fine picturea are hung in close rooms, lighted with numerous can dles or with gas, yet without the slight est means of ventilation. It was shown in the careful report on this subject by Professors Faraday, Hoffman and Tin dall, that the proceeds from the combus tion of coal gas, unless wholly removed from the apartment, are most deleteri ous to pictures; but that gas unburnt was almost innocuous, and its combus tion might be made moat useful in pro moting an active ventilation sufficient to remove all the resulting evils: and with them those almost equally deleteri ous excretions rising in crowded rooms, from condensed breath andan unchang ed atmosphere. While there are those who leave their pictures from year to year untouched and unuoticed, there are others who are contiuually incrusting them with coats of varnish. Under the dust or dirt of years the picture rnay remain intact, aud be brought, simply by careful wash ing, to its first purity and freshness ; but those who cover their pictures with >n m:rouscoats of varnish is continually re moved for new applications, remove with it the last tender and most precious finish ings of the painter. And here Ict us again add our warning, at least in re spect to British pictures, against the new invention of solving the costs of varnish on a picture, and letting them subside into anew surface- Mattie varnish enters so largely into the vcj i cle with which such pictures are palm ed that under this treatment varnish and pigment may be found floatiug into one common mana. Revenub Receipts. —The Internal Revenue receipts up to the same date amounted to over a million dollars, and the total to that date f..r the current fiscal year $108,027,299.33. [From the I'ltUburg Catholic.] ▲ Tarrible Warning-Sudden Death of a Ibuphtmer. On Thursday, the 13th ult, a prisoner, known by the name of llolmas, was struck with apoplexy while giving utter’ anccs to the moat horrid blasphemies i and died the same day. The case was so remarkable that it was reported in all the dailies the same week. A few day* ago all the circumstances connected with the horrible affair wore described to us, and we give them almost word for word, as we received them, from several respectable parlies, Protestants as well as Catholics, and possessing the best means of information. Thompson (for Holmes was only an assumed name] had been several years, perhaps four or five, in the penitentiary, having been convicted of horse stealing. He was possessed of a vigorous consti tution, and though an educated and intelligent man, was a professed infidel, and accustomed, on all occasions, to use language of a profane and most bias pheuious character. He was employed at shoe making, aud on the latftj Thursday, while thus engaged, en. tered into ’conversation on religious subjects with the only other prisoner in the Cell, a Protestant, working at the same trade. Thompson asked his companion if his mother was a Christian ; being answered in the affirm ative, he observed that Christianity was an imposture. The other prisoner replied that Christianity could be proved from the Bible. Thompson answered: “ The Bible is like an old fiddle, you can play any tune you please on it.” When reminded that at least the divine char acter of the founder of Christianity was clearly set forth in the Bible, Thompson asserted with great vehemence that “ Jesus Christ was a bastard, aud his mother a ,” a name which none but the vilest rutiian would apply to even the most degraded woman. Thompson had hardly given utterance to these horrible words, when his cell-mate observed that he was falling from the bench on which he sat, aud catching him in his arms gave the alarm. A physician was summoned imme diately, but the case was one beyond the reach of medical skill. Some said the poor man was attacked by apoplexy, others might suspect that he had been struck by the hand of Cod. There with distended pupils, palsied tongue, and rigid limbs, lay the wretched blas phemer. After twenty-four hours spent in this condition, he passed to his final account. Once more had the ‘ Galilean” triumphantly vindicated His own honor, and more signally avenged the insult offered His Mother. Postal Facilities with Switzer land. —Letters and printed matter of every kind posted in the United States and addressed to Switzerland may be transmitted to their destination via Bel gium in the mails made up at New York, and dispatched by means of the new line of American steamships run ning direct between New York and Antwerp. Correspondence for Switzer land forwarded in the mails to Belgium by direct steamer to Antwerp will be subject to the following rates of postage the same being in full to destination. On letters, eighteen cents per single rate of half ounce,prepayment optional; ou news papers, gazettes and periodical works, four cents for each weight of three ounces or fraction thereof, prepayment requir ed ; on books, pamphlets and other printed matter, three cents for each ounce or fraction of an ounce, prepay ment required. Important I)f.cision. —At Sumter Superior Court, last week, Judge Speer presiding, a decision was made that may be of general interest. A negro was arraigned on an indictment for rape, when his counsel moved to dismiss the proceedings on the ground that the party charged had already been arraign ed, tried and punished by a military or provost court, the crime having been committed upon the person of a white wonjan, and the punishment inflicted, ball and chain for three months. The Judge decided that the plea could not avail the prisoner unless it should be shown that he belonged either to the army or navy of the United States. The trial, thereupon, proceeded, and the party was convicted, aud sentenced to twelve years in the Penitentiary, Oct of Danger.— A hard-shell preacher wound up a flaming sermon with this magnificent effusion: “ My brethren and sistern, es a man’s full of religion you can’t hurt hjm. There were three Affriean children; they pat them in a fiery furnaco, heated Seven times hotter than it could be het, and didn’t swinge a hair on their heads. And there was'John Evangler; they put him—where do you think they put him ? They put him in a caldron of bilin ile, and bilod him all night, and didn't faze his shell. And then there was Daniel; they put him into a lion’s d< n—and what, my follow'travellers and respected authorities, do you think he was put into a lion’s den for ? For praying three times a day. Don’t be alarmed, brethren and sistern ; I don’t think any of you will over get into a lion’s den.” The Catholic Plenary Council.— This body was in business session yes terday, being divided into seven com mittees, each presided over by an Arfch bishop, and each committee reporting business for the body, which meets in the afternoon. Every - night, except Thursday and Saturday, sermons will be delivered in the Cathedral to {ho public. Last evening the sacred edi fice was thronged to listen to the ser mon of the Right Rev. Dr. Rosoncrains, his subject being, “Faith eometh with hearing.” To-night tho sermon will be delivered by the Right Rev. Thomas L. Grace, Bishop of ht. Paul, the subject not yet being designated.— Bullifityrc Sun, 9 lh. Wht the Adjourned Term or tiie Circuit Court at Richmond was not held. —The Adjourned term of the Cir cuit Court which was to be held at Richmond was not held, because it was found that the Acta of Congress did not warrant the adjournment from Norfolk. At the last session the number of cir cuits was reduced to nine, and all of them, except the first end second, mate rially changed. It is thought that the old allotment ot the Chief J ustice and Associates to the circuits as formerly constituted, does not give them jurisdic tiou iu the new. It is understood ibut Chief Justice Chase has submitted this point to the other Justices, and that the question whether the Circuit Court will be held this fall in the altered Circuits by the Chief and Associate Justices and District Judges, or by the District Judges alone, will be determined in conformity with the views of the ma jority. There is good reason to say that in a few days the Jeff Davis matter will be settled, so far as the responsibility <f the Administration for the trial of the prisoner ia concerned. There it no doubt that some action will be taken by the President. Chief Justice Chase,- Judge Underwood, the United States District Attorney for Virginia, and the United Slates Marshal, will be severally ' notified formally that Davis is held sub ject to the writ of the United States Circuit Court, to answer the indictment found in that Court. These officers of thfc law, will be requested so take imme diate custody of the prisoner, and re lieve the Administration of further re sponsibility. Upon a showing to be made in a few days, it will be found that the responsibility for the trial, or delay in bringing it about, is with Judges Chase and Underwood. —Late Northern Dispatch. A Country Order. —A rural belle, who wants to be the leader of the fash ions in Paducah, sent the following order for “filters” to a friend, who made the required purchase of Ben.
