Public Schools in Maryland.

Children are the property of the State, was
q maxim Of the political economy of Sparta.
The Spartan pystem worked well, and re-
suited in prosperous and powerful state with
men like Leon!das, and :he three hundred at
Thermopyle, and rs"an who sent their sons
to battle with the injunction to return with
their nhic3s or On .hcm.
The Spartan maxim 81 yes the true theory
of Public Education. Children are the prop
e.ty Of the State and are educated by the State
well or poorly as her laws may be good OF
bad. BY this we do not mean that children
are Ill educated in the Schools but they are
educated some where, either right or wrong,
for good 0. evil.
The brutal wretch whom You hang Oh the
sallovs or send to the Penitentiary, tho he
may no: be able to read or write, is educated
educated by imperfect laws until corrupt pas
sions have swallowed up the moral sentiments
and the intellect has teen dwarfed by physi-
cal growth.
To say nothing abou. duty or humanity, it
L. the interest Of the State 70 afford system.
and good system Of general education.
There arc thousands OF children growing up
in our territory without proper education.
Many canno. afford it, in ether cases an in
ordinate .h:s: fer riches induces parents to
refuse It.
Here Is e waste Of r.:..i that might be made
productive capital. II 10 80 much principal
lost that nigh: have been put out to interest.
Education produces enterprise, and enter
prize is what we want in Maryland. An I'M
educated man, is generally content with his
position. His Intellect ia no. trained to think
and hence he plods on "a the generation before
him. Those who are rich are contented with
common ways Of keeping and accommodating
fortunes, and dent wish to ;soua!e their minds
with anything else.
Blu. let the common H!ild be educated, and
pressed By necessity it will struggle upward

A good system of genera! education would
soon increase the productive capital of the
State 26 or 80 per cent, snd instead Of a
drain upon the Treasury wcT.d become an
