A teacher is not required at all times to tell the truth. A class Eeuship will create more wealth than an ignorant citizenship can create. Ignorance never was and never can lie anytliiug but a curse to the peo ple who are ignorant, but au educa tional policy that is pitched upon no higher motive than mere creation ot intelligence because intelligence pro duces wealth, is not pitched upon the highest and best basis. There is something else that must enter into the character of an indi vidual, of a State aud of a nation be sides mere ability to create money values, before an individual or a State or a nation can be called great. Besides, it is as true now as it was two thousand years ago, that man does oot live by bread alone. Our children must be ta ,giit that the ac quisition ot wealth and the power to produce wealth, is after all an inci dental thing. It is a serious question whether mere money-getters are worth much to the world. We want underlying our system of public education a bet ter thought than that. We desire that our children shall learn at school ami^it homeland in society and ev erywhere, that the best product of civilization is manhood and woman hood, and that manhood and woman hood cannot be purchased in any of the markets of the world. Tiie lime has cornu when we should insist upon it, in tiie legislature, in the administration of the government, in tiie jonduct of public aud private affairs, iu social and business life, ip our school system, from the kinder garten up through tiie universities, that honesty of purpose, integrity of life, cleanness of conduct in public and private station, uprightness of character, purity of heart, and loyal ty to an intelligent sense of duty— that all of these graces of manhood and womauhood count for more in the estimation of the people ot Geor gia tliau anything and everything else that we hold dear in this life. The best product ot aiiy civiliza tion, after ail, is not- wiiat we have dug out of the hills, aud not what we cun dig from our richest mines. It is not what we can garner from fields into our barns and store tic should understand that a teacher in the privacy of bitf classroom may is under obligation at all times to in vestigate and discover for themselves the truth.” Since this is an extract from a let ter, written by the Professor’s own baud and signed with his name, it cannot misrepresent him, either in grammar or moral philosophy. And it may be asserted that the latter is as faulty as the former. Under cer tain circumstances it may be permis sible for a teacher to enlaige upon a suject, to exaggerate to a limited ex tent for the purpose of impressing the youthful minds under his tutel age with the importance of it. ' But on such occasions the toauher’shonld, without exception, let it be under stood that lus speech is figurative and not to be taken as cold tiut. A teacher is' no more justified in lelbng falsehoods “in the privacy” of ins class ldohi than a preacher is in mak ing false statements “in the privacy” of his pulpit, or an editor “iu the privacy” of tiie circulation of his pa per, for the purpose of creating an impression on receptive minds,— Savannah News.
