OUR COMMON SCHOOLS.

/ There is, perhaps, nothing Of more Importance
to the human race, and which has more direct
bearing on the happiness Of all ranks, than the
cultivation of the mental powers In fact, all the
other objects to which the genius of man may be
turned, must be deemed subservient to this.
g For, on the acquisition of that knowledge to
which we allude, and the corresponding course Of
conduct TO which it leads, depends the happiness
of our fellow men, considered both Us an individ-
ual| and as member of the great family to which
iby government he is attached. A community may
generally be considered as viruous as it is INTEL
ligent, and this general Intelligence has hereto
fore, and probably alwayswill be received through
the channel of our Common Schools, which may
be said'to be, in one sense, Che mighty bulwarks
of our Liberty AS intelligence and virtue are the
controlling and guiding stars to the permanency
of any Republic, so the opposite, ignorance and
vice, are the vehicles of bgotry, prejudice, bar
Nothing, however, appears to have been more
overooked by the citizens of Saint Paul, than the
selection of the most proper means by which
such desirable and important ends are to be OBJ
tanned. Notwithstanding we have city boasting
population of ten thousand souls--notwith-
standing in.point of wealth and enterprise we
compare favorably with any other city in the
Union, We are yet most woefully negligenrin point
of educational facilities. While other cities point
to their. system of Common Schools with pride and
satisfaction as living monuments of the nteli-
gence of their citizens, we of Saint Paul Gin
scarcely point to apology for such institutions.
Let our citizens take this matter in hand, and
while our Masonic Lodge, Historical Institute, &c.
are being erected by associated enterprise, let us
see what can be done toward the erection of two
or three commOdioas edifces dedicated to the
educational interests of the people in common.
Our Common Schools should be accessible to
and inviting, SO that the most fas-
tidious could not take umbrage at being associ-
ated Herewith. An expression of our people
through the ballot-box in favor If levying tax
for this purpose should BE- had at the earliest
uossilJle moment,

Editor Of the Tnnes,-Yes.erday afternoon.
on board Of fine steamer as passenger, ~
iag at your wharf. \ policeman came on board,
and had some pretty sharp language with one OF
the officers: learned from the conversation, that
of the crew had got offended and had the
boat attached for their pay. The policeman, af-
ter sundry eyolutions, stationed himself at one
Of the posts, where a rope was tied that held the
boat Two men, | suppose in the employ of the
boat, seated themselves on the rope: in a very
rough and authoritative tone, he commanded
them to get off the rope,-they were, slow to
obey, he came near them, and while belchng out
the coarsest ;mprecations, drew revolver as
though he intended to enforce obedience with
their blood. BY this time a large and excited
crowd had gathered, somei saying esg him, &c
one with deadly weapon, making his way out
of the boat towards the policeman, when re-
lease of the boat handed him closed the scene.
Now do not make this statement to convey
the idea that st. Paul is usually desecrated with
such scenes, for think all things considered that
it will compare fayarably with anY city l am ac
quainted with, but to express my hearty con-
demnation of the bullying and insolcnt manner
of the policeman. Whittier the officers were to
blame or not amounts to nothing, the policeman
if in the line of his duty, had the law to back
him in every movement, which here is ample pro-
lection, where. as in this case, no personal vio-
lence is offered by tho victims OF, the law
Aside from the disgrace it brings upon any COM
munity, to have such officials in its employ, if
ihey are allowed on every singh. occas sion, where,
rs in this case, only few dollars are involved J
to make such display of deadly weapons, and
deadly purposes, what can We ask Of the masses
but to follow their example. !, ...
If it is the object TO have the reign of terror
introduced, in the shape Of revolvers and bowie
knives, to avenge every real or supposed Insult
or injury, let us fill our offices from the highest
to the lowest with such men; butt if we desire
an orderly and forbearing community, let every
official be removed as early a., practicable, ba,
such as fill their places with self-colnmand and
prorriety, and show some respect for good order
Minnesota weekly times. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1854-1859, 1856-08-09
and common deceacy in their own example.

C1y. The conduct of the Policemen was not
what it should be. First he should be assured
that he isrighs, and'th shielded by the power
invested in him, should cody but determinedy
execute the duty he is called upon to perform.
Our Police force lacks organization, and unless
more vitality and efficiency is given it, it will
prove curse rather than blessng.--ED.
