aAIuRpER OF THE INNocESTs. Such is
the not altogether inappropriate designation
given by some one to the present system OF
public school education, system that de-
velopes unnaturally the brains Of children,
while It dwarfs the body, and exhausts the
nervous system. There seems to be, among
school directors, commissioners, etc., total
want of physiological information. Teach
ers and children are treated rs so many ma.
chimes, capable of producing certdin results in
u given time; and if the machinery gives out
in any case, the fact is attributed to original
defect, and not to the over-working system
they have SO wisely (stupidIy) established

that the lives and health of thousands
of young children are yearly destroyed

upon nature. Three hours a day in school,
it has been urged, is fully sufficient, and We

ANTI.AMERICAN SYMPATHY.

The Madison Courier, mn old line Demo-
cratic paper, comments upon the recent riots
in Louisville in the following just terms:
At Louisville and elsewhere there appears
to be m effort to throw the blame of these
! terrible events from one party to the other,
! ench being charged with commencing the
fight on the morning of the election. We
| shall not pretend to say which party made
the first assault on Monday, but that the
! Democratic or ant. American party have been
more TO blame than their opponents, Is clear,
we believe, from the evidence now. before the
! public.
From the time the American party made
! its appearance in the political arena rs II con-
! trolling power, the anti Americans have de-
nounced members MS .thieves,' 'pickpockets,'
J llindoos,' robbers midnight nssassins'-
every term used in the language TO denote
! rascality, was thrown upon them by every
| newspaper press and every nnti-Amcrican
speaker, in constant stream of vituperation
! for an entire year.

their opponents with loathing and scorn, TIM TIN
| they would, as they did at Louisville believe
| that they were doing God service by shooting
| down such opponents far nway from the polls
I -unoliendng, quiet people, in pursuit Of
their daily occupations-was to have been
expected, probably was expected by the lea
ders of the anti American party. 1t is to the
conduct of the anti.American newspaper
press and its leaders for the twelve months
preceding the election the primary cause of
the excesses, the terrible calamities, and
murdercrs around the free ballot.boxcs of
American citizens, and which has cast gloom
over all the Union-this awful calamity is to
be attributed. The conduct of this press and
party since the elections has been consistent
with their antecedents-thcir papers are filled
with the most inilammatoiy articles.
When our party WAS armed-as it is said
the foreigners in this city were last spring
, and ready to strike, and the Americans de-
; termincd to protect themselves, it is nonsense
10 talk about who struck the first blow; that
r was doubtless returned MS readily as it was
given, no matter by which of the parties il
! WAS given. The ant-Amcrican press moan
over the iatheress children md widows Of
f the slain foreigners, but have not Il single
tear for the friends of the slain Americans.
Nothing could be more true than this last
remark. The anti.American press, mourn
loudly over the foreigners and their widows
: and orphans, but they do not utter one WORD
Or shed one tear of sorrow or sympathy ove
> the widows and orphans Of their own coun
: trymen, murdered without provocation.

GRouNDs FOR A DWoRcE.-Ladies must
beware of sitting in gentlemen's laps and
kissing them, in the absence of their hus-
bands, for the Supreme Court yesterday
granted divorce in the case of Frederick
Loerz against his wife Catharine the evidence
showing that HI was seafaring man, and
that during his absence at sea, Mrs. Loerz
was frequently visited by one Henry Schmidt
and OH one occasion she was seen sitting in
his lap, and ns he was going away she nc.
companiod him to the door, where he kissed
her and went ol'!-New York paper.

ToMBoys.-Thc public mind is awakening
=, the Importance Of physical education. AT
tho recent ladies' exhibition of gymnastic,
calistc, and dancing exercises, in Boston, DR..
Smith, Mayor, in his speech to the parents
nnd teachers while distributing prizes, adj
dressed them at much length on the impor-
tance of thus developing tho muscular appa-
ratus of children, and made the pertinent re-
2 mark, "that the girls he knew when boy,
' who used TO climb trees and fences with the
boys, and were called "Tomboys" by their
mothers, were now, wherever found, leading
women in society, with strong healthy bodies
and minds" Mayor Smith was right. Our
girls had better be tomboys than mincing
young ladies'. Under right system of cdu-
cation they would be as far from one extreme
as the other; but if we must have an extreme,
give us that which secures strong limbs, rosy
cheeks, and a constitution that will last.

A WARsIsa.-We were told by gen.
tlemsn who was present, that on Wednes-
day morning, after the train had started,
four or five persons who were behind time
attempted to jump on. This they all sue
ceeded in doing, except ote individual who
missed his footing, was thrown to the
ground, nd came within straw Is breadth
Of being MANNED or killed. One Of the
wheels Of the car tore off the heel of his
boot. Our informant did not know the per.
sons name. He was c rried into neigh
boring house, and we presume was not in
jured or we should have heard about it,
We suppose there will always be persons
who will persist in jumping on and off cars
while they are in motion, but it is well for
every body to remember that much the lar.
gest number of deaths and maimpps which
happen on railroads, is caused by attempts
to get on or off the cars while they are run.
