Mob at Washington.

The National Era at Washington City,
has been mobbed. Some account of it will
be found in another column. Is not this glo-
rious! AT the very time when we are con-
graduating France and the rest of the Old
World upon the establishment of the liberty
of the press. our redoubtable, freedom-loving,
brawling republicans are busy putting il down
at home. No doubt but this is a great coun-
try; and We are the people, and wisdom sure
ly wiH die with us-freedom will never think
of breathing after her great North American
champions shall have passed off the stage
Look at it, you poor cowardIy, craven, De-
mocratic and Wing "whiie slaves" You
who after monopolizing TO yourselves the
right TO make laws for the Nation, have
prostiluled the ballot box, TO so vile a use as
taxing women to raise money TO build and
support iaiIs at your National Capitol to lock
women and children in, whose only crime is
fleeing in search of liberty, of that liberty
about which you stand up, TO brawl and boast
and brag and banter on Fourth of July and
other great occasions! Oh, but you are a
great set of patriots! V%alorous heroes va be,
truly. How many millions of you are there
who stand up and whimper about tAe evils
of slavery, and let about three hundred thou
sand insolent tyrants rule, and move ye like
a set of puppets on a wirel If you have not
truly been "driven TO the wall and nailed 10

For our own individual part we cannot set
what use you are of, unless TO do the bidding
of your masters like other slaves. Look a.

An American Advertisement.

Among the curiosities of American litera-
ture which the 10Th century has produced,
the following specimen is among the most
curious, though unhappily we cannot pro-
nounce it rare. 1t may perhaps be used by
the historian of future ages to illustrate the
barbarism of this nation, to prove our profess
sions of Christianity and Democracy a lie,
and stamp on our foreheads that brand of in
fanny which such practices richly deserve.
Only think of it! The undivided half Ofa
MAN! offered for sale in Republican and
Christian America, in the year of grace one
thousand, eight hundred and forty eight.
We thank thee, o Lord, that we are not
as other nations are, but are a free and chris
Iian people, living amid the full blaze of Cos
pei light, and in the practice OF christian viz
tues.

Russia.

The following manifesto has been issued by
the Emperor Nicholas, and foreign papers say
it was received with great enthusiasm. They
do not however mention who were so enthu-
siastic-whether it was the few who are in
terested in sustaining a ~despotism, or the
many who would be benefited by its down.
fall.
Manifesto Of the Emperor.-Arter the bene-
fits Of a long peace the West of Europe finds
itself at this moment suddenly given over TO
perturbations which threaten with ruin and o.
verthrow all equal powers, and the whole
Social system. Instruction and anarchy,
the offspring of France, soon crossed the
German frontier and have spread themselves
in every direction with an audacity which
has gained new force in proportion to the
concessions of the governments.
This devastating plague has a tlast attacked
orr allies the Empire of Austria and the
Kingdom of Prussia, and to-day, in its blind
fury, menaces our Russia-that Russia which
God has conided to our care. But Heaven
forbid that this should be. Faithful to the
example handed down from our ancestors,
having invoked the aid of the Omnipotenl,
we are ready to encounter our enemies from
whatever side they may present themselves,
and without sparing our own person, we will
know how indissolubly united TO our holy
country, to defend the honor of the Russian
NAME and the invioIabilily of our territory.
We are convinced that every Russian, that
every one of our faithful subjects will res
pond with Joy TO the call Of his sovereign
Our ancient war-cry--for our faith, our SOW
ereign, and our country-will once again
lead us on the path of victory, and then with
sentiments OF humble gratitude, as now with
feelings of holy hope, we will all cry with
one voice, God is on our side. Understand
this, we people and submit, for God is on our
side. Given at St. Petersburg. llth of
March, in the year of Grace, 1918, and the
23d of our reign.

POPULAR EDUCATION.

The following is an extract from dis
course on the above subject, BY Rev. +.
Edwin HALL, Of Guilford, Conn.
s'Some persons have fallen into great
mistake respecting the nature Of education.
They think children are educated il they
can read we'll and recite the rules Of gram
mar aud arithmetic. But all this may be
accomplished, and the mind receive no en-
largement. Education has its true begin
ming in the exercise Of the thinking powers
Of the mind il is increased BY the vigorous
exercise Of the mental faculties; it is BY
means Of this exercise that the powers Of
the mind are cultivated and unfoldcd.-
Any system of instruction which docs not
thus excite the mind, and awaken ito cner-
gy and givo il force, by proper exercise,
will fail TO secure tho great end Of oil in
struction.
There are but few children who leave
our common schools at the age Of sixteen
years, who arc even tolerably instructed
in the various branches which nre there
taught. Take the hest Of them; those for
example who are called good grsmmarians;
they can parse any sentence, and give the
reasons and rules for its construction, &C
cording to the text book. But do they
speak correctly in ordinary conversation?
Can thcy write good letter, or decent
article for a newspaper? They may have
ideas enough. but can they express them
correctly and forcibly? And Why no,?-I
For the simple reason TINT they have not
been taught 10 think. They have really
received no mental culture. They have
learned words and rules, and how to apply
them mechanically, just as parrots learn
to whistle and call names. But their
minds have not been educated; they have
had no mental exercise, end their minds
have no facility Of motion,-thcir ideas
have no shape; end il they have thoughts,
they are unable, from tho want of proper
instruction, to give them form and express
sion"
