The Philadelphians propose to test the policy
OF making education compulsory. The Board
OF Comptrollers OF the public schools of that
city has perfected a bill in relation to compul-
sorry education, which applies to all children in
the city between the ages of eight and sixteen
who do not attend private or parochiaI schools,
Ii estimated that there are at least 20 600
Children in Philadelphia between six and eight
cen years of age who 10 Ho. attend any school,
ana who do not receive any instruction either in
reading or writing. Il. is said that i'm Prussia
every chill is compelled by law to attend school.
but 1t must be also said that in Prussia there Is
school for every child. This is not the case IL
seems, in Philadelphia, as there are now. ac-
eOrding to a statement made about a month
ago, several thousand children whose names are
entered at the public schools who are waiting
tor admission, but who cannot be received he
cause there are no accommodations for them
In Washington 1t is also the case that there
are many children unprovided for in the Public
Schools; but the difficulty here is that the civ "a
so burdened by the host of contraband children
brought here by the war; and by the large num-
Der OF children of Government employees, that IL
can scarcely stagger under the load of taxation
requisite to keep up the present school system
For 1t must be remembered that the parents of
neither Of these classes of pupils paw any taxes
iOr the support OF our schools. Ii NAV be re-
marked further that Congress, while voting
large amounts for the support of schools every
where except in the District OF Columbia, has
added to this injustice by depriving us OF
a portion of our own school income at
the very time this heavy additional burden
was thrown upon US. OF course it was
done unwittingly; but yet il was done.
In order to give the right of suffrage here to
the contraband population so fully that none
should be debarred from the privilege of voting.
Congress deemed ii advisable to do away with
the poll-taS upon voters. Now, this poll-tax
was by law devoted to the support of the public
schools, and thus Congress, probably without
the slightest idea of the result OF its action.
swept away every vestige of this school tax
VI course with the enormous increase of school
expenses from the floating population thrown
upon the city, the poll-tax would not now 90
very far towards the support of the public
schools; but yet 1t was an element of some i'm
Portance, and the city was deprived of it Just at
the time when most needed. In view of these
enormous burdens thrown upon this city sjmply
because II Is the seat of Government. we do not
see how Congress can hesitate to pass the hill
before them donating to this District a portion
OF the public lands for school purposes. sucb

more mischievous, perhaps, than malignant in
which the ringleaders were half-a-dozen con-
spirators and theatrical fanatics. But the aues-
ton Is whether the Liberal Cabinet is not spend
ing too much time in repression that is not
needed The prosecution of NJ. Rochefort. for
instance, has compelled the Ministry, in spite of
many truly liberal acts, end of unexceptionable
Protestations Of allegiance to the caus, of lib

Hence has arisen false position, made falser

In deferring to next year a new electoral law
and other measures imperatively demanded by

The bill allowing the charging of IL per cent.
interest on contracts has passed both Houses of
the Virginia Legislature. This is to carry out
provision of the new constitution OF the State.
Business men, and especially those Of small cap
ital, In this District and in the State Of Mary
land, will now have less chance than ever to
borrow money at a fair rate Of interest. When
lenders are liable to lose the entire principal, as
In this District, and as in Maryland the entire

Law fixing the rate of interest at six per cent,
they are not likely to risk their money on loans

EDITOR STAR: Please reprint the following
slip from the Tribune. and say to that paper that
the po,cer to take care of themselves, without
waiting upon the will of Congress, is precisely
the reform wanted by Washington; and this is
the reform which the Tribune is invited to help
Does not the Tribune know that this CITY cannot
pave its own avenues withC ut the permission of
Congress, expressed through the laboriOus
method OF :" getting biH through" a body that
has too much other business on hand to heed
this District? With the power to manage its
own affairs, and to tax the national property
within its limits just as they tax themselves the
enterprise and public spirit of this city will 90
ahead to take care of its own poor establish
manufactures, and redeem the city generalv
This power only the American people, through
their representatives in Congress- can grant
The precise form Of government which shall best
give this power to the District NAV not yet have
been n'dtared, but that the thing is needed and
Ge handed by the intelligence OF the people here,
there can be no doubt. III. G.. L.
WASHINGTON CITY.-A correspondent who
deems us unfriendly to the present Federal Me-
trOPOlis writes to cOntrOvert our views on that
point and incidentally says:
The agitation of the question of removing
the capital has had good effect upon the peo-
pie of this city, in opening their eyes to their ut
ter dependence upon Government for subss-
tence; to the fact that. if the Capital was re-
moved, city of more than 120 900 inhabitants
would be left to the b ats and owls. Washington
has many men of whom any city might be proud;
and they will put their shoulders to the wheel
and make this a much better place than it
now Is, and altogether city IN which all Amer
leans can take pride. Has the great power in
the land-The NeW York TribsRe-nO helping
hand to lend to this enterprise?'
4psWer.-Yes, we lCH help Washington if her
magnates will allow us to counsel them; if not
how can we: We most earnestly urge them to
stop looking to the Government for fdrors and de-
pend upon Themselves. Let them resolve to pave
their own streets, pay their own police, support
their own poor, and ask Congress to mind their
own proper business and let them alone Then
let them introduce several branches of manu-
featuring industry, and train up their children
to productive labor instead of rearing them to
the degrading craft of otfice-seeking for live
Ehcod. By following this course, they NAV
make theirs truly noble and fourishing CITY,
no matter whether the capital shall remain
there or be taken somewhere else-Ed. Tri6.
