MISCELLANEOUS,
The Constitutional" Way

A Slave lately came into the camp of
the Iowa troops at Florence, Mo, mounted
upon high spirited horse, on which he
had escaped from his master, who lives
near St. Louis Around his neck was
band of iron half an inch thick and nearly
one and halt. inches wide, not locked but
securely rivited. Three iron prongs of
lightning rod size were welded to this band
at equal distances apart, and arose above
his head about nine inches, with an out
ward inclination. The iron had lacerated
his neck, and the wounds had partially
healed under the protection he had given
to them by holding up the band with his
hands during the preceding days that he
was concealed in a corn6eld, but while ri
ding the horse he could not hold it up,
and it had opened the wound, from which
there was bloody, mattery ooze trickling
down upon his broad shoulders. To the
soldiers who surrounded him, with pity
and astonishment, the negro plead earnest
ly: Please Massa soger take dis collar off
my neck. Use good niger; I'll do any
ting you want me. De Illinoy sogers cut
the collar off er Ben After labor of
three hours the collar was filed of. 1t sp-
pears that the negro had carried this iron
band upon his neck about three months,
as a punishment for assisting his wife to
escape into Illinois

The Cost of the War.

Facts and statistics, with exact calcu-
latlons IN respect to the abundant resour-
ces of this country, tend somewhat, we
think, to encourage those who are mourn
ing over the great cost Of the var The
valuation of the Census of 1860 gives in
round numbers a property of more than
sixteen thousand millions of dollars. Eight
thousand millions of dollars was the valua
tion for 1850. 1t is only necessary to cal
culate the immense resources OF the coun-
try, the enterprising and elastic character T
ofits people, its vast energies of accomplish
ment, to appreciate something of its capac-
ity of endurance. 1t is idle to talk about
running this country. Such language is
uttered only to serve some end of doubtful
loyalty; or else by those who look on the
dark side till all sides become dark to them
Courage, then let US listen to NJ counsels
of fear. Out of this tremendous evil good
will come. 1t is the part of good citizens
never to despair of his country We who
remain home and share not the perils of
the camp and the field have something to
do to restrain the impatience of the hasty,
to inspire the doubling, to support our
brave sole iers in the field and strengthen
the hands of the Government. There is a
patriotism in cheerfully bearing the bur-
dens of taxation which, though not to be
compared with that of those who have Civ
en- their lives for their country, is by no
means to be lightly regarded. We pity
the man who is 50 means spirited as to grum-
BILE at merely pecuniary sacrifices to the
cause of his country. He only rises to the
spirit which animated our fathers and of
the present times who can say take all
have, leave me but the power to earn .
living, and government and country as
rich heritage for my children This is
a patriotism which is worthy to be mention
ed with that of our brave soldiers in the
ield.-Bost0n Journal

1nasmuch as you requested me to write
an article for the Educational Column and
inasmueh as | am opposed to talking unless
| have something to say, thought would
offer the following essay taken from Tim
othy Titcomb's last work 1t is to the
point and contains much sound sense and
naked truths, which, if once assimilated
with the common sense so generally ac-
knowledged to be possessed by the teach
crs of Mithin county, may result in some
good. Certain it is that our schools should
fit their pupils for the work of life.

" Ellsworth the gallant Zouave,
" Ellsworth the gallant Zouaye
OI Ellsworth the gallant Zouave

And perished, the Union to save
Twas he who first led Freedoms phalanx,
across the Potomac's blue wave;
HIS blood stained the threshold of treason
A martyr our Union TO save
Twas Ellsworth, &c.
When he saw treason's proud banner waving
NO danger his YAlor could queli:
And when his hand tore it asunder
BY coward assassin he fell
Twas Ellsworth, &c.
But as his brave soul fed 10 heaven,
1t breathed forth its parting huzza-
Ana ms blood, while it shamed the dark traitors
IL hallOwed his country's cause.
Then sing to our gallant Zouave,
"A tear to our our gallant Zouave,
He fell like the Spartan youth, Warren,
In green but glorious grave;
But nations warm tear drops shall water
lhe bed of our gallant Zouave.
Of Ellsworth, &c.
Then swear by the blood of our hero
Which flowed treason's shores to laVe

For revenge on our gallant Zouaye

Here's glory to Ellsworth immortal
And honor to Brownell the brave.

American Public Education.
SELECTED.

\ venerable gentleman who once occu-
pied prominent position in leading New
England college, was remarking recently
upon the difficulty which he experienced
in obtaining servants who would attend to
their duties lie had just dismissed girl
of sixteen who was % much above her
business as to be intolerable The girls
father, who was an Englishman, called
upon him for an explanation. The EN-
ployer told his story, every word of which
the father received without question, and
then remarked with considerable vehe-
mence: 1t is oil o,oing to those cursed
public schools The father retired and
the old professor sat down and thought
about it, and the result of his thinking
did not differ materially from that of the
father. 1t was not Of course, that there
was anything in the studies pursued which
had tended to unfit the girl for her duties.
1t was very possible indeed for the girl to
have been better servant in consequence
of her intelligence. There was nothing
in English grammar or the multiplication
table to produce insubordination and dis
content. There was nothing in the whole
case that tended to condemn public schools,
as such; but it was the spirit inculcated
by the teachers of public schools, which
had spoiled the girl for her place, and
which has spoiled, and is spelling thou
sands of others
Let US look for a moment into the in
fuence of such motto as the following,
written over a school house doOr-always
before the eyes of the pupils, and always
alluded to by school committees and visl-
tors who are invited to make few re-
marks
Nothing is impossible to him toho aciKs.'
This abominable lie is placed before a
roomful of children and youth, of widely
varying capacities, and great diversity of
circumstances. They are called upon to
look at it, and believe in it. Suppose
girl of humble mental abilities and hum
bic circumstances looks at this motto, and
says: ,oiH be a lady. | aCW be indie
pendent. will be subject to no mans or
woman's bidding Under these circum-
stances, the girls father, who is poor, re-
moves her from school, and tells her she
must earn her living, now | ask what kind
OF spirit she can carry into service, ex.
cept that of surly and impudent discon-
tent? She has been associating in school,
perhaps with girls whom she is to serve in
the family she enters Has she not been
made unfit for her place by the influence
of the public school? Have not her CON-
fort and her happiness been spoiled by
those influences Is her reluctant service
of any value to those who pay her the wa
ges of her labor?
1t is safe, at least, to make the PROPOSE
ton that public schools are curse to all
the youth whom they unfit for their proper
places in the world 1t is the favorite
theory Of teachers that any man can make

PURCHASE OF HALLS cARBISEs.


Another remarkable transaction wac the sale
by the Ordnance Bureau, to Mr.. Eastman, of
FIVE thousand Halle carbines, an arm which need
ed some alteration to be useful, for 50 so each.
This private sale was made at time when the
Department was buying arms which had been
condemned, and sent FRI m the arsenals of Europe.
After an expenditure Of from IS cents to 81 25,
they were sold 10 Simon Sevens f0f Sl2 so;
then to General Fremont for 500. No wonder
our expenses are $4,000. 900 per day-Govern-
ment sells at 50 SO, and in short time buys
back at 500 DR.. Cummings bought seven hun
dred of the same carbincs for SIS. The evidence
of Major Hsgner shows that Mr. Stevens was an
agent or aid to General Fremont. This Mr.. Ste
vens denies. However, the relation was one of a
warm personal character. He had probably just
left him with instructions to purchase. His dis
patch to Fremont was Just such as an agent would
send, or one who had the assurance of the neces-
sites of the West, and that the arms would bs
taken At all events the bargain was an uncon-
scionable one, whereby Stevens was TO make
about $50. 900 in one day. without incurring any
risk or nyesting any capital.
