THE EDUCATION OF THE FREEDMEN.

The Address of the Executive Committee
of the Association recently organized for the
education and moral improvement of the
Freed People in this State states its own
case, and the arguments in its behalf so well
and conclusively that to call attention to it
seems only necessary.
That an educated community is more
moral and law abiding than an ignorant one
is fact. That these people, deprived even
Of the limited public school facilities proyi-
ded for our other population, should be ig-
norant is not surprising. The taxpayers
of Delaware will therefore save money in
the cost of judicial proceedings, the erection
and support of jails, alms-houses, houses Of
correction, BY teaching these poor victims
of oppression how to live honestly and NOR
ally. 1t is not a question Of politics, il is
not matter in which partnership can in
trudc; it is for the benefit and advantage OF
the whole community that this philanthropy
ic work should go successfully forward.
The character of the gentlemen connected
with the movement is sufficient warrant of
the proper application Of the funds commit
ted to their charge, and we trust their appeal
will meet with prompt and liberal response.

aud to impress on our lives this pure

courage us, to console us. and to en-
gage us more and more in the labO-
riouS lleld OF action upon which we
have voluntarily entered. 1t is i'm
p0rtant for us to verify what the
study Of this career, so short, but
SO respondent placed i'll clear light,
tins union of integrity and kind
ness, of sagacity and simplicity, of
modeSty and courage, which make
him a type so interesting and SD
rare. type that no prince, no pub
lie man OF our age has equalled OF
surpassed. This wood cutter be-
comes an advocate; then placed at
the head of one of the greatest ma
tons in the world, has displayed all
the virtues of the honest man, with
all the qualities Of the statesman.
His head has not been turned any
more than his language; since his
accession to the highest position, mo-
one has been able to cite II single
word Of his, ofmenace or bravadO, II
single yindictiVe or eXtrayagant eX-
