Association and Education.
'P. O. cites us half a column of extracts rela
tive to the training Of Youth from Mr. Brlsbane's
pamphlet on Association, and wishes them re-
conciled with certain axioms of Morality and the
Scriptures. AS his queries were avowedly drawn
forth by the recent manifesto Of Messrs, Charming,
Goodwin sc. in our paper OF Saturday, the shortest
answer will be found in the following explicit
statement extracted therefrom, viz:
The only questions which meet the world dis

n THE FOURIER CONVENTION met on Thurs
day the i4th pursuant to adjournment. DIR.
WM PRICE was called 10 the Chair, and JOHN
WHITE appointed Secretary, and W. McDlAR-
MID Assistant Secretary.
The following are among the delegates in at
tendance: Wade Loofborrow, Esq. of Washing
ton, Fayette Co. O., ]. II. Hill, of Cambridge
city, Ia, Dr. ]. Radcliffe, J. B. Rogers, D. Pru-
den. of DAYTON, ]. B. Steward, of Higginsport
Brown Co., o. Mr.. Boggs and others.
The Convention are now engaged IN the dis
crssion of Constitution for a Phalanx-an ar
duous work-inasmuch as the interests of La
Dor, Skill and Capital are each to be protected,
and their rights secured in such manner as to
allow of no collision; and which, if effected, must
certainly prove good work. 1t cannot be de-
nied that the relations which at present exist be-
tween Capital and Labor are such as TO work
oppression to the latter while they fail to secure
safe return of profits to the former; and this,
the Assocationsts affirm, is the inevitable result
of their ntaconistic,reations besides being the
prolific source of many other evils. To unite
these now conflicting interests is the end and
aim of these Reformers They are sangune IN
the faith of their principles; and 1t must be ac-
mittcd that they have plausible grounds to work
upon. We wish them success.
