LECTURE ON EDUCATION.

Mr., A. Smith, State Commissioner of Common
Schools addressed our citizens on Tuesday evening
last. Mr.. Smiths lecture bounded in practical
good sense, containing many hints which parents
and guardians, as we'll as Teachers and pupils,
would do well to remember. and act upon. His
speech however, had one serious defect. 1t was
too long. The speaker seemed not to remember,
that on a sultry night in Summer, after a day of
active business and labor, it is too much for an
audience 80 be compelled to listen to a lecture of
two hours in length, even upon a subject so inter-
esting as that of Education. A lecture OF an
hour long, would have been quite sufficient for the
occasion, and would, if properly arranged and con-
densed have contained food for as much thought
as those present are likely just now to devote to
to the subject, If we are correct in our opinion
of Mr.. Smiths lecture in this particular it is
also true that his error was one that is very COM
NOR with public lecturers. As the error implies
no criminaiity on the part Of those who commit it
but is generally attributable to a desire to do good
and impart valuable instruction. Mr.. Smith and
others addicted to it, will we trust, not be often
ded by having their attention directed to the mat
ter. J.B.

SURPRISING A PRAYER MEETING.

Louis Napoleon has been successfully taking
lessons of our American Slaveholding Christians
says q late number of the Tribune, "As
might be expected, the shareholders have a fast
friend in Napoleon III. We find the follownig
passage in the Paris correspondence of the Com
mercial Adce,tiser."
"a prayer.meeting for the emancipation Of
American slaves was appointed TO take place at
the French Evangelical Church, in the Rue Chan
chat, on the night before last. Yesterday morn
ing, in passing the church, l saw q bill on the
bulletin DO ard which announced that on account
of unforeseen circumstances the meeting would
not take place. | inquired what were the unfOre-
seen circumstances, and received for answer, The
police Was such n meeting dangerous to 'pablic
ORDER or was it suppressed through politeness TO
the American Government?
The Tribune commenting on this says, 1.-THE
Shareholders ought to return the compliment by
on his and their account, a present of a hand
somely twisted cowhide and o pair of slave
~fetters."
Yes, and the next Old School General Assembly
out of respect to this imperial compliment to its
pet institution, ought to have adjourned to meet
in Paris, next year instead of New Orleans. The
Emperor in that case would doubtless detail the
police for their protection from any stray fanatics
grave deliberations by a proposition for a prayer
meeting for the hea then on our Southern planta-
tions.
