In tbe history of the four years of
unequal war waged by tbe Southern
States in their struggle for indepen
dence than in any other history that
ever waa written or that ever will be
written.—News and Courier...
The Charleston News nod Courier,
has hit upon a wise and moat timely
utterance in the above paragraph.
The situation or the South in this
respect to-day is to be deplored by
every loyal, Sonth-loving heart, and
a reformation » needed.
Now, what are the facts in the
case ?
Here, in tbe South, and all over
the Sontb, the authorities of tbe
public schools, and private schools,
too, have grown to be caieless in the
selection of text books for the chil*
dren attending those schools. Nine
times out of ten in visiting the
schools of the Sooth one will find the
pupils poring over some Northern
history which, though it may not be
bitter In its denunciation of tbe
Sontb, still has the ring about it to
encoorage the erroneous belief that
the tethers of these same children
were traitors to their country, and
fought for a cause that waa wrong,
unholy.
As surprising an it may sound to
the parents of children now attend
ing Southern schools this troth must
sooo or late come ont, that their
sons and daughters are being taught
to view the late civil war with North
ern eyes. They are being stolen
away from the altar of their mother’s
knee, where the first lesson of cili-
senship was taught them to be love
of country, honor to the Canse that
waa loat, bnt which shall never be
forgotten.
It is, indeed, high time to call a
halt. *
Southern men and women are false
to the memory of onr dead heroes
/when they permit such a coarse to
be punned in the schools. We want
onr children to be taught the troth.
Heaven forbid that the New Sooth
shall ever forget the old. God pity
the day when the youth of oar land,
the hooe of the Nation, should be led
from the altar of patriotism to the
cause for which their fathers fought,
bled and died.
It is the duty of Southern men and
women to see to it that their chil
dren are taught histories written by
‘Southern authors. We need, to nip
this growing evil in tbe bud. South*
eru children must see the war as
Southern patriots saw it Not only
do we need to teach them a history
giving the facts and causes of that
war impartially, but one that colors
it all with Southern colors. Teach
the children of the South that the
cause for which their fathers fought
was just and right, and the country
