Eiects the immense amount of money neces-
sary to support this Yankee Importation.
Let Education be open to the competition
|of the most learned and the most virtuous
everywhere. Let q small appropriation be
made for the education of the most merito-
rious among the INDECENT children OF each
Parish, to be expended in those schools
which shall prove themselves the most
worthy of popular support. In this way
only will 'Education prove benefit to the
State. =
/ In this connection we quote the follow
ing extract from recent able editorial in
the Ereeman's Journal
| /, Tt is nolmore the business of the Soy
eminent" Of the State, prof the City, to
take into its hands the schooling OF the
chrildren of families, than it is to provide
for feeding, or clothing them. Children
should be instructed and educated. They
should, also, be fed and clothed. Ihei
schooling, like their feeding and clothing
should be left as a duty incumbent ON Their
parents, or natural guardians. The child
belongs to the .fansily--not to the State;
land the State has no business with the
lchild, except where, by bereavement 4ei
parents, ofstheir misconduct, The child be-
comes, actually, an outcast. .5
| IL, AT the present stage of our society
Especially in our large cities, the abandoned
children, ikethe orphans, would be much
better educated and rtaken care Of by the
spontaneous charity of the benevolent, or
|ganized into Voluntary Societies for the
purpose, than they are, now, by political
enactment, and official interference. ii
| III. There is no more right in the State
HGovernment to tax the whole community
for the sclloonng q v ai Of parents able
to provide for It, than there is to make the
Iclothiaig Of all the children Of families, {in a
uniform, or common, dress,) or their feeding
| (on uniform diet) u burthen to be borne
lin common, bya levy on the property o.
|all citizens, whether parents or not.

These! propositions we maintained six

throughout the State of. New York. We
maintain them now. Events have proved
we were correct. We submit them to our
readers and urge their serious consideration.

Vindication Of Confederate Officers,

We take from the New York News and
publish to-day an eloquent letter from Col.
y. f. Bolton, vindicating the officers of the
Trans.Mississippi Department against GER
tain charges contained il the late report of
General Grant. It is written with much
point and vigor, and, will be deeply inter
esting TO our readers as a actaiied account
of the last days ofthe Confederacy from
the pen of one who was in position to be
well informed on the subjects Of which he
treats. Col. Bolton came to this Depart
ment on the Staff of General Smith, served
some time as Chief of staff to Generals
Holmes and Price, while they respectively
commanded the District of Arkansas, and
was on the Department Staff at the tine
of the surrender on the Goth of May.
+ Col. Bolton is a Northern man, the son
Of an old United States Army Officer, and
has returned, we Believe New York to
reside. Theletter in question was penned
in hisfNortherni home and Published ii b
Northern newspaper. We areglad to see
that he has the maminess to defend his
gallant comrades in arms against charges
which would leave stain upon their well
earned regulations In most instances
Confederate officers have sat still and lis
tened withoata murrner to the slanderous
reports of Northern officers and hireIing
newspaper scribblers with reference to
their conduct on the field ofbattle, which
will 60 down to posterity and be taught as
the true history of the late remarkable con
test. Now this is all wrong, If the
sword has been wrested from Southern
hands, the pen has not, and Southern men
should make an effort to place their glo-
rious deeds. in "a proper light before the
generations to come. The Northern press
is now teeming with publications on q The
Great Rebellion" filed with the grossest
libels and Misrepresentation Of the acts Of
Southern men, by which they propose. to
the rising generation with q
proper appreciation of the glorious
Union" its flag, its leaders and its wonder
full achievements. The young, Of a remote
posterity, deriving their information from
that source alone, cannot failteslook upon
the South as q nation Of caniGbals; on
JEFF. Davis as an Ogre, who has deyoure,l
his hundreds on stonewall Jackson as a
perfect Poiyphermus; and even the great,
the good and humane Lee will doubtless be
painted with a tail Of prodigious length,
and with two horns as long as a fence rail.
To countelact the dissemination. Of all
such falsehoods, Southern men, who were
eye-witnesses of the heroic deeds of their
countrymen,s SHOULD give publicity to their
knowledge, and aid Though never so feebly,
in the spread of correct information among
the people Of the coming ages. The South
will then appear, as she should, to be a ma
ton of heroes, whose. achievements have
never been surpassed, and who gave up
their efforts to gain their freedom, only
when they we're forced to yield to such
numbers and resources as. rendered, even
such heroic contest az Their" useless
against such overwhelming odds.
