Tho Public schools.

Nothing is more important than popular
education; for in these days OF transition
when SO many are inclined to doubt the real
benefit and value OF institutions founded on
popular sovereignty; when all the legislation
for this city practically denies the power Of
the people to govern tlemselves-All classes
Of theorists and reasonsu alike come to the
determination that all the evils Of our political
system result from the masses becoming the
dupes Of ambitious partisans, and all agree
that the remedy for this ia in universal and
good education-education that will teach the
people to do their own thinking. Therefore
the more schools we have, and the more in
struction is put in the way Of the people and
made accessible, and the more the people
avail themselves Of the opportunities given,
the more hope there is for the stability Of our
system Ours is . high standard Of govern
ment Il was framed when there was clear
distinction In political life between educated
and uneducated classes. II was framed and,
In its early years. handled exclusively by
educated men. Later years have swept away
the distinction, and 1t IL evident that many
who have thus come into active political life
have little perception Of the character
and requirements Of our governmental
system. Safety to the State requires
that the State authorities should stimulate,
foster and extend popular education by all
judicous means The people are prepared to
see the public school system carried beyond
its present limits. The evening high school,
just opened, at which instruction somewhat
advanced Is to be given, Is in great favor
Twelve hundred persons have applied TO
attend, many OF IN men between thirty
and fifty years Of age. There is an especial de-
mand here, we believe, for instruction In
anguagcs-French, German and Spanish
and we hope the authorities will manage to
meet the demand in proper spirit, and not
get matters mixed up as they are in some Of
the day schools, where the French Ian guage
Is taught by the German professors and the
German, perhaps, by Frenchmen. The rush
to this evening high school Is agood sign, and
If one high school ia not enough we hope the
commissioners will have authority to establish
as maay ~ may DO necessary.

The Latest Fcnisn Fright In England.
The last scare in England is caused by some
minors that the Queens royal person is in
Danger Of being captured by the Fenians In
Ter seclusion at Balmoral. We do not think
that much solicitude need be felt ON that score.
Neither is 1t likely that the indisputable dis
affection existing in England is solely Of Fenian
ofgin. That the original programme OF the
early conspirators is being carried out by the
men who mean nghting and not mere noisy
ajtation, ispretty evident; and that programme
involved continual disturbance OF the
elements Of order In various parts Of the
United Kingdom at the same time, so as to
enbarrass the government as much As possible

Opening Of tho Campaign In New York
Tho Republicans nj the cooper In.ti-
tute.
The republicans opened the State campaign
on Wednesday night by grand ratification
meeting at the Cooper Institute. The evening
was fine. the occasion was somewhat interest
ing to radicals and conservatives perplexed
with the significant results of the late elections,
the music and the fireworks were attractive,
the place was convenient, and 80 . consider
able crowd was drawn together inside and
outside the building, to witness the proceed
ings. There was nothing in them, however,
very remarkable, except upon one very i'm
portant matter, to which we shall presently
allude.
Mr. Spencer, chairman of the Republican
General Committee OF the city, opened the ball.
and to this effect, that the negroes rights will
be maintained :'that the policy Of reconstruction
of the radical Congress shall be maintained,
and the political treachery Of Andrew Johnson
unqualinedly and Indignantly condemned;"
and that call these findings it is the stern de-
termination Of the radical republicans OF New
York shall this powerful State in November
make" Senator Morgan next, having been
appointed TO preside, indicated the policy Of
Congress and urged upon his party the neces-
sity Of fighting their battles through In care
fully weighed but rather heavy speech. Next,
letter Astounding in adecivcs was received
Of apology from numerous other parties, In
GLIDING the great Miltonian radical orator Of
our rural districts, Senator Conkling the I'M
fortunate "Old Ben Wade,- OF Ohio, and the
redoubtable Parson Brownlow, Of Tennessee.
Then the venerable Horace Greeley brought
in the ratification resolutions, which included
thanks for the extinction Of slavery, thanks to
Congress, lick at Andrew Johnson, thanks
TO Generals Grant, Sckles, Sheridan, &C., q
puff for the republican State ticket, and hint
that "a sleepy canvass and light vote will
not answer" for the State Of New York, after
what has happened elsewhere. Satisfied, sp-
parently, with this achievement, Greeley SUBJ
sided, and Mr.. W. NJ. Evarts made q long
speech, in which all the ingenuity Of cum
ming lawyer was employed 10 cover up or dis
guise the great issues Of the day in the history
OF the copperhead democracy. Senator
Nye, Of Nevada, then appeared In his
usual character Of jester Of the ring.
As usual, too, he excited some laughter,
though his jokes were not particularly spar
king on this occasion. But to this point the
pulse Of the house on the great leading idea
Of the day bad not been touched. No name
had been mentioned Al that Of the standard
bearer Of the republican masses in the great
national battle OF 1865. Greeley, Spencer,
Eyarts and others Of the radical managers OF
the meeting evidently intended to leave this
an open question, still dreaming, perhaps, OF a
possible chance for Chase.
The marked feature Of the evening, there
fore, was the speech Of General John Coch.

The German citizens of NIuscatine.

over disturbance which took place
III the German Evangelical Church
of that city, on Sunday evening
last. The Rev. VIM. Kempmeir,
pastor, took occasion to denouncc
certain members of the congrega-
ton for having taken part in a
threatical performance under the
patronage of the Turnverein Society.
His remarks were SO offensive that
an attempt was made to drag him
from the pulpit, but was prevented
by the more considerate portion OF
the congregation. The reverend
gentleman has received warning to
leave town, md has sought the pro
lection of the authorities.

ton. vas advised to try your Bittcrs,
and, having procured q bottle, found that
they worked like charm upon me, eight
pounds having been added to my weight
i'll the space of one week, and new life
seemed to have been infused into NV svs-
tem-so much so, that 1 have been iu-
duced to use them every summer since
that time. As n tonic, think they are
invaluable.
This summer, having had similar
attack, (and as before, much reduced
although under the treatment of an 4 No.
