EDUCATION OF THE PEOPLE.

The overthrow of the rebellion has changed
the whole system of Southern society, and pro-
portionately affected other interests and sec
tons. Demanding the enlightenment of mil-
lions, long benghted, it forces upon the North
and West the consideration of a more perfect
and peryading educational policy.
Much as we have boasted, and have reason to
boast of our common schools, we cannot deny,
when we compare them with those of New Eng
land, and contrast them with the preparations
for the education of the Southern people of all
classes, that we have Blueh to overcome, if we
would equal the cne, or stiEIulate the o,ber.
The reeert convention cf County SciI"5l Super;
int5ndents Of Pennsylvania exhibits some start

by legislation alone that any people can he

But Liberia is nothing to the negro poor

Southern half of the United States. We

into everything else in America. We set
the whole Northern half of the nation to

We approach financial panic, but try to

We reconstruct the South, not tor the
