NaxY State PrIsnn.

The people of the State will be glad to
learn from the State Sentinel that the loca-
ton of the proposed penitentiary North has
come TO dead lock. The Commissioners
as they claim, in the exercise of their best
Judgment, influenced by personal interest,
after careful review of all favorable sites,
located the penitentiary at Fort Wayne
The Governor, in the exercise of his best
Judgment, controlled solely by regard for
the States interest, as he claims, refuses TO
approve the action of the Commissioners
Each party positively refusing to yield, or to
compromise upon any other northern loca-
ton, We see no other result but a defeat OF
me measure entirely, or AT least until the
next session Of the Legislature. On Sat
urday the Board or Control notified the
Governor that they should proceed this week
to sdyeTtis- ior proposals for the erection
of the prison, assuming the location 60 be at
Fort Wayne, on tive ground OF his having
fe:lsi 10 disappTove of that location, a rea-
.onGble tins having been given him for hi:
action ia the matter This intention OF the
Board to proceed an spite of the Governor
viii be rsconsiderei, and the matter laid
over to the next Legislature, when the Law
viii be repealed.

schools.

The examination of our public schools
now in progress is the most brilliant ever
had; and it excites universal admiration
among the visitors After such displays OF
their advantages, there can be no dissenting
voices on the subject of the value and i'm
portance Of the excellent system of public
instruction we have secured for the chill
dren of Evansville. We can, with pride
and with safety, we believe, challenge COM
parison with the schools of Cincinnati or
Boston, which are pronounced the best in
the country. Happily for us, our old charter
has saved US from the leveling system de-
creed by our new constitution, as construed
by our Supreme Court.
Yesterday morning, Miss ROnalds inter
mediate school for girls, and Miss Hooker's
school of the same grade for boys, under
went most thorough examination by their
teachers, Mr.. knights, Superintendent, and
by the Trustees, in the presence Of larfe
company of visitors. The studies in these
schools embrace reading, spelling, geogra-
ply, arithmetic, and grammar; the scholars
range from seven TO twelve years of age.
A visitor writes US note saying, "most no.
bly, did each class acquit itself"
The perfect accent, the distinct pronunci-
alton, the ready response, and the rapid So
luton of mental problems, most clearly
eyineed the careful aud Efficient training of
the classes. As they ascend from grade to
grade, the advantages OF their early and
thorough primary lessons will become more
and more manifest. The teachers need no
higher testimony of their ability and fidelity
than these examinations afford. While
they are comforting sach invaluable bene-
fits upon the city, they are acquiring honor
ed names for themselves. The Office OF a
faithful teacher is responsible and sacred
trust and though it may afford poor returns
an worldly goods, it win, where duly APP
preciated, be rewarded with the love and es-
TEEN of the warm, pure hearts, and the
bright and noble intellects it quickens into
life. The esteem in which good teacher:
are held Is one of the snrest evidences of the
civilization and progress of community
b. our schools and our teachers We are. in
this respect, willing to be judged

Cushing upon the Right Of Natural


The following letter from the Hon. Caleb
Cushing, opon the rights Of naturalized citi-
zens leaves no other inference to be drawn
from his language but that whe9 foreign
citizen leaves his native country with lia-
military or o:her-eristiEg against
him, he will be subject to them on his return
to his native land: fI.4
SIR In response 10 your inquiry as 10
what legal condition you, born in Turkey
and a naturalized citizen OF the { uited States,
will have in Turkey during proposed So
journ there, state
The laws of the United States do not sd
nit the indefeasibility of natural allegiance.
The assertion of the right of self expatria-
ton is one of the principles of the fnnda-
mental public law of the American Union.
We hold that the power to change domlcil
is of universal natural right, subject only
TO such conditions as may bc requisite 10
reconcile the general with individual inter-
ests. These conditions are the exercise of
good faith in the time and circumstances
and in the purpose of The change Of domicil,
the actual consummatiou of the purpose, AMI
the discharge OF all subSisting Obligations
in or to the country left. Such, according
to my understanding OF the matter, always
has been, and still continues to be, the doc
trine maintained by the American Govern
ment.
1t being material to you, however, to
possess official assurance on this point, l
have presented your case to the Secretary
of State; and l have his answer to the eff
feet, that, in the case of person emigrating
TO the United States, and becoming natural
lied here, with no present liabilities to his
native country, military or other, existing
against him at the time Of his emigration,
in such case, the law of nations, or the opin-
ion Of the American Government, gives no
right to any foreign country to interfere
with him, and the attempt to do SO would
be considered an act unjust in itself, and
unfriendly TO the United States.
And, therefore, subject to the reservations
above stated, you will be entitled in Tur-
key TO be regarded as q citizen of the United
States.

G. CUSHING.
