Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1871-06-08

"blest are the martyred dead who lie
In holy graves for freedom won,
Whose storied deeds shall never die
While coming years their circle run.
Blest be the ground where heroes sleep,
And blest the flag that DER them waves,
Its radiant stars their watch will keep,
And brightly beam on hallowed graves.
While freedom lives, their fame shall live
In glory on her blazing scroll,
And Love her sacrifice shall give,
While anthems round the altar roll.
Year after year our hands shall bear
Immortal flowers in vernal bloom,
Till God shall call us home to share
Immortal Life beyond the tomb.
Our Father, all the praise be thine
Thy grace and goodness We adore;
Bless our dear land with love divine,
And shed thy peace from shore to shore.

Education by the United States
dOvcrnme

Upon tho subject Of education we
arc in sympathy with all who advo-
cate public schools supported BY taxes
sufficient to sustain them. And if
tho mass of the people at the South,
especially the non-property holding
whites and tho blacks, are to be edu-
Gated during this generation; we see
no other quarter to which to look for
means adequate to this end than to
tho Treasury of the government at
Washingto. The Southern States are
too much crippled in resourc, 8
by tho war to inaugurato q system Of
rublio education on scale large
enough to answer tic necessities Of
their situation. The present growing
generation will not be educated, if it
be left to the State Governments to-
educate it. They cannot do it, and
they will not, if they oah. Whether
tho bills bresented to Congress by
Hoar and Wilson of Massachusetts bo

necessity of national aid to cd dGcation
il the Southern States and in the ter
ritorics, wo cannot say, because We
have not read them, but we are per
suadea that only tho strohg arm and
tho long purse Of the Government at
Washington is able to grapple with
the subject. The gove,nmeut is con.

would be money we'll spent, and the
