THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

1t will be seen by reference to another COL
umn of this paper, that the School Commits
sioners of this city have determined to open
the Public Schools on the 18th instant. The
names Of the commissioners heretofore pub
lished give an earnest in advance that the
work allotted to them would be thoroughly
done, and the well-known and accomplished
teachers whom they have selected, give as
surance to parents that the education of their
children will be properly attended to. OF
late education in the Southern States has been
sadly neglected. In many instances, in towns
where colleges and schools were located, they
fell into the hands of the Federal forces.
Where they did not, professors were often
withdrawn from them to fill more important
posts during the progress Of the war, and
many of those who, in ordinary times, by
reason of their tender years, would have been
most apt to fill the class benches, considered
themselves sufficiently advanced to share with
those Of maturer years the responsibilities and
dangers of soldiers life
The public schools of this city have been
closed for years, and many of our children
can never regain the time lost under these
circumstances. But for the future, we may
hope that the education of the children of this
city must prosper and advance in measure
only bounded by their application and desire
to learn. I'd s..-. o,.ra...ya,,' ~,
When the children of the present day come
to play their parts upon the stage of life, that
State will stand the highest and exercise the
g. best influences which makes the best pro-
vision for the education of its youth 81 l

Mr. Greeley and JEFF. Davis.

| The New York Citizen of last week says
| that the following in regard to the charge o.
Mr.. Weed and Ell. G. has maintained cores
pondence with certain relatives of Jefferson
Davis. We quote: .-
''Some time ago Mrs. Jefferson Davis wrote
very touching and truly womanly letter to
the editor of the Tribune, thanking him for
his advocacy of civil over military tribunals
in the cases Of political offenders ), complain
ing of the alleged i'll treatment of her hus-
band, the insufficient and unwholesome food
given to him, his subsection to heavy letters,
his being denied hours for open air exercise,
and all the other absurd ISLANDERS of the same
sort poured out by the fertile correspondents
of the Philadelphia Inquirer $500. .'t,1s
To this Mr. Greedy replied as any gentle
man must have replied to any lady so unfor-
tunate as to have husband in such sorry
case He disabused her mind of the false sto-
res Of i'll treatment and privation; assured
her that our Government was wholly incapa-
BILE of any such mean malignity as the reports
in question had ibelously charged to its ac-
count that Mr.. Davis had good and whole
some food, as much open-air exercise as he
needed, and that-when last reliably heard
| from-the health of her husband was not only
not worse but much better than it had been
| at the time of his arrest. ~. -s,.
Mr. Greely's letter then wound up by some
reassuring words to the effect that she might
| dismiss anxiety as to any snap-udgment or
| drum-head proceedings and execution in re-
gard to her husband, it being Mr.. Greely's
conviction that he would be given Just and
public trial before some airly-constituted and
| honorable court. This letter, open, was en-
closed in one to General William Brge, com
handing at Savannah, to be delivered or re-
turned, as that officer might think advisable
and surely in this transaction, at least, there is
nothing to damage Private O'Greely in the
Judgment of any candid or compassionate GEN.
sors. -
The Leader also says . .
1t is well known, though never yet publicly
announced, that Governor Brough had been
rendered the portfolio of the War Department
by President johnson, in view of the long
contemplated resignation of Secretary Stanton
which had only been delayed until the recov-
cry of Governor Brough would enable him to
accept the position. The high estimation in
which he was held by the President and
Secretary of War is further testified by the
extreme anxiety which they have manifested
to hear daily reports of his condition. and by
the fact that surgeon, especially eminent for
the treatment of the disease under which the
Governor waIsuffering was detailed by the or
der of Secretary Stanton to assist Surgeon
General Barr in the management of the case

geg" Some of the advertising agencies of
the North, in their efforts to get work done,
" dirt cheap" by that valuable paper, the
Charlottesville Chronicle, have stirred up the
wrath of the editor of that sheet, and he thus
holds up to public scorn the effort which was
made to humbug him. He records the most
noticeable instance as follows
The most audacious proposition, however, is
the following, and here we can have the SYM
pathy of the ladies in our indignation: They
send us an advertisement of the " New Skirt
for 1s65-6-J w. Bradley's New Patent Du-
pick Elliptic Spring Skirt" which would oc-
cupy eight squares of the Chronicle and cost
for three months some 1856 or $40. They
then dictate to us an editorial headed "Some-
thing New" occupying about four squares
more, and passing the most tremendous eulo-
GUM on the Duplex Elliptic Spring Skirt. y
For all this, they very naively remark, On

EEg- We insert the following letter from
the Archbishop of St. Louis to the clergy I'M
der his charge. We have not seen the OBJ
jectionable oath, and the St. Louis press would
oblige us by giving it publication. 1t is most
unfortunate for the peace and quiet of the
State of Missouri, that the civil powers should
be in conflict with the religious convictions of
the great mass of the people. The ballot box
will eventually remedy the evil:
ST. LOUIS, 28th July, 1865.
Reverend SIR Since under the new Con-
stitution certain oath is to be exacted of
Priests, that they may have leave to announce
Gods word, and officiate at marriages, ohtch
oath they can IN no acise take aoitbon a socTa-
fce Of ecclesiastical liberty, I have judged it
expedient to indicate to you my opinion in the
matter, that you may have before your eyes
rule to be followed in case of this delicacy.
I hope that the civil power will abstain from
sexacting such an oath. But should it happen
otherwise, wish you to inform me of the par
ticular circumstances of your position, that
may be able to give you counsel and assis-
lance. 5hf s-r-7s

SHIP BUILDING,

We know of no location in the country
where this business could be more successfully
prosecuted than in this harbor. Timber is to
be found in abundance in the surrounding
forests, and it can be brought here at the low
rates of water transportation. The utter. an
Inhalation Of the canal feet which formerly
filled this harbor, creates demand for new
sohooners which it will take some years to
supply. We hope some of the Northern ship
builders may turn their attention this way.
We assure them that more eligible point for
this business cannot be found on the Atlantic
coast than the harbor Of Norfolk. -a
