PLAcINe children in their most nI,st;c

PLACING children, in their most plastic
conditions of soul and body. with every
nerve and sense and faculty keenly alive
to impressions, under the tuition of mere
children themselves. SO far as fitness for
this duty comes of experience and matur-
ed observation, is a crime against the child
who, is the subject Of it, in comparison to
which allowing the child to grow up un-
lettered is excnsable. THERE'S no crusade
that could be i~naugurated in behalf of
childhood and its rights so holy as a COM
bination against such practices. Better,
a th~ousand-fold better. send out this army
of innocents-children whose early years
are. not imerely defrande ed of their, most
sacred rights, but perverted to irremedia-
BILE results-to spend their school-days
amid the novelties and interesting objects
Of nature /; and while they at least invig-
crate their bodies, let the empty school,
houses of the land bear the inscription !:

THE Tennessee Patriot says we have
no faith in Gen. Sherman as a candidate
for the Presidency, because he (Sherman)

The. Patriot is mistaken. We are in
favor of Grants reelection for the very
reason that he does not believe in XII

THE PEABODY FuND.-The Proceed
ings of the Trustees, at their Annual
Meeting. have made their appearance in
a handsome pamphlet. This report will
be found interesting in many respects,
but especially for the tribute paid to the
late Admiral Farragut by Hon. r. G.
Winthrop, President of the Board. The
statements made by DR.. Barnas Sears, the
general agent, respecting the operations of
last year, were regarded as highly crafty
ing. According to the report, Tennessee
received $4,000.

Returned.

Some eight months ago a man and wo-
man eloped from this county for parts I'M
known. The, worst feature Of this dis
graceful leave-taking is that the woman
is a widow and a mother Of three or four
children, and the man is a husband, (his
wife a respectable LADY, and the father Of
seven children. the Oldest a boy sixteen
years old and a helpless cripple. We would
publish the name and expose the villainies
of this brute and heartless scoundrel, were
it not for his respectable and welLto-do
connections, who have enough of trouble
and shame to endure already. Last
Thursday evening, the miserable and a.
bandoned woman returned and was put
off of the train at Limestone, twelve miles
west Of this place. The night before on
the ears of the Chattanooga and Nashville
Road she gave birth to twins and returned
to her forsaken home with one babe in
her arms and another in a basket. re-
preaching her partner in the Infamous
guilt, in language as forcible as blasphe-
mics. We failed to learn Of his where
abouts, but if he has found the end of a
rope or a gloomy dungeon, one villain has
got his deserts.

INFLUENCE Of SCHOOL HOUSES.

1t was an observation of Cicero that the
face of a man will be tinged by the sun
for whatever purpose he may walk abroad.
The minds of all persons, by daily a~ssocia-
ton, are greatly Influenced and their char
acters permanently effected by the scenes
with which they are familiar, especially is
this the case during the impressive periods
of youth and childhood. / p - -
School masters and SCHOOL mistresses
are not the only teachers in our schools.
School houses teach wonderful lessons
How little we think of the influence which
they exert over the minds of the young !
Whatlessohs of degradation and pollution
and ruin are often taught by the rudely
constructed and sadly neglected school
in which many children are instructed!
Just for a moment, imagine how a
child that has spent its early years in a
pleasant home feels when it first enters
one of the gloomy school houses to be
found in every neighborhood.
How can the child love school, or book.
or teacher when everything upon which
the eye falls make it believe that school
houses are more like places of punish
ment than heme? \ distaste for school
is the frequent result.
No one knows the effect of we'll con-
structed and neatly arranged school
houses on school discipline, until he tries
it. We need not talk of better schools
until we have a better class of school
buildings. Rough houses have something
to do in making rough men. Our child
rem deserve better school houses-the
cause of education demands them.

We have a report of a parliamentary
speech by General Won Moltke, which was
worthy of a great statesman. He said it
was his most ardent desire that the resour-
ces now devoted by the various Govern
ments of Europe to war-like objects might
turned to the purposes of peace. He ar
gued that the only means of bringing
about such a result was the establishment
in Middle Europe of great non-aggresive
power which would be strong enough to
prevent all its %neighbors from making war;
and this power must be Germany. These
are encouraging words of Won Molke, the
great military organizer and commander,
Perhaps Europe, under. the amicable
domination of Germany, may now begin
to enjoy the thousand years of peace, the
coming of which was predicted by the pro.
phets thousands of years ago. !
