Suggestions on Popular Education


To Aesrs. Humphreys, HdrreH and Woods;
GENTLEMEN When stated at the close of my
last No, that, if the arguments which had sub
mtted to your consideration, did not show the inn
porance and necessity of popular education; if they
did not show, that, as patriots and philauthropsts,
we ought to foster and render Efficient the common
schools of the country, must confess my inability
to make that importance and necessity appear; ],
,of course, meant that could not make them appear
by arguments drawn from the bearing of popular
education the perpetuity of our political instu-
tons. Nor did mean to hint that had exhaus-
ted that topic. meant to signify merely that |
had said all upon that branch Of the subject, which
can say within the limits, which have prescribed
to myself in these brief Suggestions" proceed,
then to an examination ofthe,second topicto which
it was proposed TO invite your attention. This is
the relation which popular education bears to the
pecuniary interests the country and the deveope
ment of its physical resources.
"The philosophy which affects to teach us a con-
tempt of money does not run very deep; for indeed
it ought TO be still more clear to the philosopher
than is to ordinary men, that there are few things
Of greater Importance And so manifold are the
bearings of money upon the lives and character of
mankind, that an insight which would search out
the life of a man in his pecuniary relations would
penetrate into almost every crany Of his nature. He
vino knows like st. Paul, both how to space and to
abound has "a great knowledge for, if we take
account of all the virtues with which money is mix
ed up-honesty, justice generosity charity, frugali-
ty fOrethought self-saerfce and their correlative
vices, it is a knowledge which goes near to cover
the length and breadth Of humanity; and right
measure and manner in getting, saving, spending,
giving, taking, lending, borrowing, and bequeath-
ing would almost argue perfect man." (7dylor's
Notes from LIFE, as quoted By Freedely) And even

is there to smooth the suffcrings OF the pa
tient. Here only men--but they the true
hearted and noble- minded-stood grouped
about the sufferer, and assisted to minister
20 his wants. No person, save one kirl-a
distant Commemorative who could Gall him
relative. He was the last OF his rase. and
stood alone in the world, with no ambition
on earth save to carve his own name and
fame and stand for the right.
Every groan brought to the minds OF those
watchers the career OF this remarkable man
| since his arrival in California, ten years ago.
How were these aspirations laid low! How
nssless had proved oil those wonderful COM
binations, which none but his wizard mind
could conceive? How would the news Of
OF this catastrophe be received at Washing
ton and throughout the United States with
what different emotions by friends and foes !?
As those strong mon stepped on tiptoe
from the room, or covered their faces with
their hands and yielded to uncomfortable
emotions Of grief-as the hot tears s&rug-
glsd through their fngers--the disintersssed
spectator could but have said that great
man, and one who was deeply engraved in
! many hearts, was passing away. We will
attempt no direct allusion to Mr.. Broderick,
as he lay there stricken and dying in the
prime and strength Of manhood. We are un-
equal TO the task, and leave the scene to re-
main forever . "reminiscences with those who
witnessed il. We close the book, and turn
| with deep felt sorrow from the picture.
