THE SCHOOL QUESTION.

We print on another page view OF the
School Question by an eminent Roman Catholic
layman of Louisiana, who believes that, II all
religious incubation and observance were ban
ished from our Common Schools, the great
body of the Catholic laity would be satisfied
with and sustain those schools, no matter what
their clergy might do or say. AS this view has
not hitherto been presented, we have given
the main points of Mr.. Lynchs letter to us
verbatim, though we object most decidedly to
all it says concerning king James's Bible"
and those intent on its dissemination. We have
declined several letters from Protestants, because
they imputed to Catholics motives and i'm
pulses which they disclaim; and we insist that
each party shall treat the other with civility If
not courtesy in our columns. In the present
instance, we let Mr.. Lynch's structures appear
as he wrote them; but with our hearty con-
demnation. We assume that both Catholics
and Protestants are sincerely labOring to do
Gods will and advance the well-beng of man.
kind. Their difference is one of faith and not
of morals Let US seek to understand each
other fully. and not impute motives which are
yehemently disclaimed.
Mr.. Lynch believes that, if Bible-reading and
all religious Observances were excluded from
our Common Schools, the great body OF the
Catholic laity wonld cling to them, no matter
how sternly they might be mathematical by
their clergy. Now. he ought to be far better
authority on this point than We are; and yet
we are confident he is mistaken. II the prelates
and priests of their Church should denounce
our Common Schools, the Catholic laity would
very generally withdraw their children, no
matter how reluctantly. Mr.. Lynch's views,
therefore, though interesting as those of large
Glass; we cannot accept as authoritative.
The recent lecture of the Rev. Thomas S. Pres
ton, which was listened to by an immense as
semblaRe of the Catholic laity is, in our view,
of far greater consequence; because it embod
les the view of the School Question which un-
aoubtedly prevails in Rome, has of course
been adopted by nearly every Catholic priest,
and will soon bo commended to the laity by
the whole ecclesiastical power Of the Church.
In this cautious and guarded manifesto, Father
Preston says:
"Ths vss Of the Bible 10 the schools objected 10 BY

marriage could ever be discovered. There will
be weeping and wailing among the first fami-
lies at this disclosure. There will be sorrow
and lamentation at this sudden extinction of q
royal ancestress. There will be wretchedness
in Roanoke, if any Randolphs are left there.
There was, not long ago, man up in Canada
who claimed to be descended from Charlie
magne but nobody seemed to care much
about him and he has never, we believe
started palace. But the Randolphs were at
least thought to be barOnial. They need not
however, take this disclosure exposure, or
whatever it may be, too much to heart. There
are great many barons, We dare say.
whose family trees would hardly bear a
critical examination of the roots. There are
great many apocryphal women in history
from whom it would be no credit TO be de-
sccnded-and Pocahontas appears to be one OF
them-that is all If the Virginia people had
not Dragged 80 Justify about their royal an
cestress, we should never have heard, perhaps,
of her ground and lofty tumbling in the market
place. If it Is a wise child that knows its own
father, it must be the perfection of wisdom to
know ones own great great great grandmother.
Let us be not too inquisitive let us be shady
and we shall not be ashamed
1t matters but little, if man but do his
work well in his day and generation, who his
ancestors were. OF one thing he may be sure
ancestors ho most certainly had He is OF as
long descent as any of his fellow creatures be
they who they may. The poorest and most
obscure man has had just as many grand
fathers as the richest ard the most illustrous.
We all may have had relatives in Assyrla,
Greece, Rome, Carthage; we all may have
royal blood in our veins, if we did but know
it but of one thing zoe are sure; If we dld
know it we should say nothing about it. We

New-York tribune., 1870-01-29

We have just a shade more of economy from
Albany. The Office of Sheriff of this county is
SO managed as to yield about one hundred
thousand dollars a year for the fortunate oc-
cupant. Such wretched compensation is, of
course, beggarly thing for Sheriff, SO the
leading exponent of Democratic economy, Sem
ator Creamer, proposes bill declaring that
"in addition to the fees now allowed on exc
"cutions and attachments against property in
"civil actions. Sherifs shall be entitled to the
"sum of So for receiving and entering the
"same in their books Also, in addition to
"fees now allowed, for every order of arrest
"issued to them the sum of $5 for entering
"the same"
The enforcement of such law would more
than double the receipts of the officers, and
take just 30 many dollars from the people.
But then Gov Hoffman assures us that We
have an economical Government. Still, when
we contemplate s2OO,0O0 year for the salary
of a single officer, it needs great deal of
faith TO believe in the promises of the Gov
ernOr.

POCAHONTAS IN THE MARKET-PLACE.

Historical investigation is always playing sad
havoc with the best preserved legends aud taking
the dignity out of legendary heroes and heroines
sometimes, it is true, reScuing from lgnomlny
some Bluebeard of Henry, some scoundrel OF
a Richard, or some disreputable gentleman OF
more ancient times like Nero or Domitian.
The mournful fact is that in history we can
be quite sure of nothing. for the writers of it,
from the time of Tactus. have allowed their
feelings and fancies to cover their pages with
paradox until Lord Macaulay capped the climax
by demOlishing the long-established reputation
of Friend William Penn. Then Mr.. Hepworth
Dixon built it up again, or thought that he had
done sO-his antagonist proving to have been
wrong in some things and right in others-and
so the muddle has continued, and iis likely to
continue for several centuries to come. So long
as partisans write history, We shall have DO
history to trust-so long as history is written
by men like Gibbon or Voltaire or Hume, we
may like to read it, but we can never be sure
of our facts Even the judicial severity of Mr..
Hildreth, our finest American historian, did not
save him from occasional lliberality and in
Justice. 1t is dangerous either to hate or to be
in love with our heroes or our heroines.
We confess, however, to sort Of affection
for the Princess POcahontas-hers was such
pleasant and romantic story-but we are be-
ginning to lose all confidence in the American
Indians though why we should ever have had
any confidence in them-in the dignity of their
braves and the beauty of their women-it
would puzzle us to explain As general rule,
like most savages, our aborigines treated their
women badly, and seem to have had no special
and marked affection for their children. The
daughter of Powhatan-the sweet, pretty, fas-
cinating, artless, and affectionate girl-accOrd-
ing to the recent researches of Mr.. Neill, turns
out to have been "a wanton young girl, some
times resorting to the fort; of the age then
"of ten or eleven years, getting the boys forth
with her into the market-place and making
:" them wheel, falling on with their hands,
turning their heels upward, whom she would
follow and wheel 80 herself, naked as she
"was all the fort over" This is pleasant
picture for Virginian to contemplate. and
perhaps Congress will order its transfer to
immortal canvas, or enduring bronze. Then
it also turns out that Mr.. John Rolfe was one
of rude eductiOn, manners barbarous and
cursed generation" who only married the
Princess, ii he married her at all, to sain poe
session of her fathers estate-although 1t Ia

Mr.. Ripley's letter from Rome calls attention
to tho attitude now maintained by Cardinal
Schwarzenberg and his German allies, together
with Bishop Dupanloup and his French and
Belgic sympathizers, and corrects very COM
mon error with respect to the question of In
fallibility. These prelates do not deny the In
fallibility of the Pope; they simply hold that
its definition at this moment is untimely and
unwise. Hence, there is a chance that their
doubts will be overruled by the religious en-
thusiasm of the assumed majority for lnfalli-
bilty in the Council. The difference in the
Council is not SO radical as has been supposed.

AS q member of the British Cabinet, Mr..
Bright has endeavored. we doubt not. to be as
faithful to his associates and to English interests
at large as no was in old days to his Blrming-
ham constituents and humanity in general. But
we miss in these times his stalwart energy
as an opponent of abuses, his heroic common
sense, his sturdy oratory, his Saxon yea and
nay. In his late speech, Mr.. Bright made
some hearty admissions, which show that there
must still be FIRE where there is so much
warmth; but he concealed much, and lie gen
eralized much. He has not made the case Of
the Fenian prisoners clear; he has not
quite assured us that Mr. Gladstone's
treatment OF the IIish Question will be
