The Ninth Ohio Cavalry In Nashville

The following is the notice taken from
the Nashville Union" referred to by
our correspondent. II speaks well OF
the Ninth Ohio.
he most imposing military pageant which
we have witnessed since the early days
of the civil war, marched through the streets of
Nashville on Saturday afternoon. 1t was the
Ninth Ohio Cavalry on its way to the frent,and
a warlke troop it was, composed of grim stal.
wart soldiers, whose bronzed complexion had
evidently caught its hue from the pencil of ma
ny sun, and the winds, rains and SHOWS Of
many a toilsome and hazardous ride over the
hills of Virginia, and the field and forests of
walking down College street when the music of
q regimental brass band struck our ears, with
its lively notes The musicians were mounted
on cream collored horses. Tho band was fol.
lowed by company all riding jet black stceds,
at least they would have looked so had not the
dust which rolled in dense columns through
their ranks somewhat obscured the hue of those
chargers in the National BLACK Horse Cavalry"
The hundreds of rebels that lined the Sidewalks
and looked on, perhaps thought to themselves :
"Black as night they rode,
Fierce MS seven furios, terrible as hell"
So the bard of Paradise sung of Satan and
Death at the gates of Hell, And we hope these
patriotic sons of Ohio, may "play the devil"
with Longstreets cavaly when they arrive at
the gates of the rebellion. We don't. know the
exact locality of that place at present. Since
Rosecrans kicked the stats off the gate, and
Grant chopped the posts down. and Thomas

to mind the great Apocalyptic painting Of
Death on the Pale Horse, for the carbines w,rt
polished, the sabres were true, and the broad
shoulders fthe muscular riders who bore them
looked as if there was strength enough there to
crush an opposing force of traitors to the dust
The God of battles grant it Amen and amen.

is made up BY direct tax. School houses
are built by each sub.district, Or by the
district township. Thus the opportuni-
ties for the development Of the youth,
and especially for the poor, are very lib
eral. For one, I think not too liberal,
but attended with too mach liberty. My
reasons for thinking 80, are these: In
time Of peace, the amount spent by the
state for school purposes is equal to all
other expenditures for public purposes.
Neither the State nor the individuals who
pay the tax derive any direct advantage
from this expenditure; and, unless the
youth Of the State are benefited by it, it
is q needless expenditure. From my
experience in the school.room, and by
examining the reports of other teachers,
am satisfied that but few, If any more
than half Of the children Of the State
derive any benefit from our liberal
schools. This is not only wrong as re-
spects the loss Of the money, but it is
iucalcuably wrong with the youth Of the
State. This state Of things reminds me
very much of wealthy iutestate parent,
who at bis death leaves his estate to the
disposition Of its rightful owner-his
idiot son, who knows not the value of
money; and, consequently, it is soon
squandered by the idiot heir. Had tho
father acted the part Of discreet man he
would have placed the money in the
hands Of responsible guardian, to be
used by the son as it was needed. The
youth of the country are ignorant Of the
value Of education and the parents too
often act tho part Of indifference, and
hence, the attendance at school in very
large majority of the sub districts is less
than one half Of the number Of scholars
in said district. Do we not need law
that will ob,iate this enormous wrong :!
A law that will take care of both the
public school money and secure a good
educations to the children of the indif-
ferent? Unless We have such law put
