The true friends ofprohibiuon" have

Would it not be best to aaite all the

refusal Of a tullifyiug House to carry
out one of its most important provisions

the people, should avail themselves of
such statutory aids as are sin left them.
70 advance this great social interest.
Tho plan OF cr"i9ij5a has been often
snl ably urged ,v writer's on education.
rs one Of the most effective means Of i'm
proving schools BY this is meant, a
division Of the scholars Of the larger
districts into separate schools according
to actual scholarship. In most large
districts this is already attempted to Il
ccrtainCeXtcnt, though very inpcrfcctly
accomplished. 1t IS only by the os-
tablishmont Of high school for the moro
advanced class. of scholars, such as is
contemplated by the statute authorizing
and regulating Union Schools" that
this purpose can be properly effected
The law in question authorizes two or
more adjacent school districts to unite
for the purpose Of establishing one
school Of a higher grade to be surportc!
by each district, and to which the schol
as Of each shall DO admissible on tho
same terms Tho Union school is, Of
course, to be sustained by common tax
and to DO open, like the other schools.
TO all who have made the required adj
vanccmcnt in study; and the higher
branches of education will be taught
therein, as Ut our academies. Being
open to all, and surely within the reach
of all attending tho lower schools. by
diligence and good behavior" the bcr-
eft will be felt not merely in the great
or advantages enjoyed at the high
school, but in its stimulating effect up-
on those WHO, for tho time, attend tie
other schools. II opens also to the poor,
what tho rich everywhere now enjoy,
the best kind Of instruction, short Of the
college, for which The high school may
BE- made preparatory, also, at the option
of parents.
In some other states. this syttcm has
been long tried. and is now in successful
operation. In this state, during the
last few years, it has been coming into
use in our larger Villages, for which it
is specially adapted. In the vii lage Of
BrattIcboro, twelve yearssinco, by un
ion Of It's several districts for the pur-
pose, it's academy, select schools. aud
common schools were formed into one
graded system, the result Of which ha,
been manifcstly advantageous Essen
