"CRAMMING'' IN OUR PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.

Quite formidable movement is in
progress among the divines, physicians,
lawyers, merchants, and other infiuen-
tial circles in Boston, to abolish the sys-
tenn now in vogue i'll the public Latin
school in that city, of "cramming" the
scholars. 1t seems that they are SO
heavily stuffed with all sorts of learn
ing, and their hours for study are Sc
continuous, both in school and at home
that they have no time for recreation
either for body or brain. Cases of in
sanity are alleged to have arisen from
this exhausting system of instruction
while according to the testimony of ex-
perienced physicians, who had sons in
the institution, the youths grow Ut
dwarfed in body, weakened in intellect
and, suffering under variety of dis
eases, drop into premature grave.
This is a movement in the right di-
rection, and the example might be fol.
lowed with the benefit in our own pub.
lie schools. In the words of learned
Scotch gentleman, whose language ii
quoted by one of the Boston physicians
on the present occasion: cit is wei
enough to teach the young idea how tt
shoot, but dinna use too big gum
There is no subject in the world tina

cation in greater degree than a proper

NEOSHO COLONY,

The above is the name of a colony
just being started by our enterprising
townsmen, G. B. Bachelor and w. B.
Jones. AS to the former our readers
well know who he is. Mr.. Jones is a
gentleman of fine attainments,a and large
experience in such matters. He was
mainly instrumental in settling that
hourishing colony at New Cambria,
Missouri.
Upon the suggestion of these gentle
men we have not mentioned this matter
until they could complete their arrange
ments, although we have seen it noticed
in other papers by those who had learn
ed of it.
They have secured 10000 acres of land
in a body in Woodson, Coffey and
Greenwood counties expressly for their
colony, and upon the most liberal terms
of any land in market. They run up
within or 10 miles of Burlington, and
are reported to be some of the best
lands in the valley, having an abundance
of stock water and fine coal. A vein
Vi OOdi near lAcSS ldHuS IS InFee anu
half feet thick, and when other veins on
the land are properly tested, it is believ-
ed they will be equally as desirable.
A town is to be located soon, and
from every indication the lands will be
rapidly settled up by an enterprising
class of people.
Our State has been greatly benefited
by having bodies of land set apart for
colonies, and we have no doubt this
will prove success to those who have
any interest in it either as buyer or sell
Ter.
Those desiring more specific informa-
ton can obtain it by referring to Bachel-
Ter s. Jones of this city.

A TRIP TO WINFIELD.
WINFIELD, KANSAS, !
February 2lst, 187I.(

EMPoRIA News On last Thursday
noon 1 left your beautiful city in a nice
coach, good team, good driver and good
company, Adjutant Morgan and lady,
from Cincinnati, for Cottonwood Falls,
to establish journal. In this case the
old adage-the third time breaks the
charm-will, 1 trust, be verified. The
Banner and the linden having 'splayed

rience and is live progressive man.

feeling the ruts. Again the wind and
rain drove our horses from the way and
our pilot got US back as before with his
foot. Finally we reached McCabe's,
and got into Chelsea the next morning
for breakfast. Unsightly as this village
seemed, travellers are cheered in two
ways. The drinking class find at hand
a supply, and the sober, literary class, a
school-house usefully occupied by some
90 scholars taught by a lady. The
streams being too high to cross, we had
to lie over till Saturday, when an agent
of the stage line took us safely on to FL
dorado. This village, some two miles
before it is reached from the north,
looms into view splendidly; nor does
it depreciate as one enters its hansome
streets, bordered by neat well built
houses. Nature and substantial bust

JURIES.

The manner of making up juries, it is
gratifying to observe, is receiving the
attention of the press in all quarters,
and we may hope that the time will
soon come when juries will be impan-
nelled that will be able to decide intel
ligently upon the causes brought be-
fore them, and when bailiffs will not be
run down and the action of the courts
delayed, often at great expense to the
State, in order to obtain twelve men
who will be mutually satisfactory in
their qualifications, or disqualifications,
and personal relations to the attorneys
and parties of both sides in the suit.
The expression even of an opinion up
on the merits of any case, based upon
the er parte testimony supplied by a
newspaper report, does not necessari-
ly commit an intelligent man to de-
cision in accordance with his first in
considerate expression. Men may
change, and often do, their opinions
concerning the guilt or innocence of a
criminal on trial several times during
tAC PAOSACSSa euOLCOA uhA0 AOAlCSl, AAtC4-
ligent men, if they decided the culprit
guilty, would not vote for his convic-
ton if they were not sustained therein
by the law.
1t IS a notorious fact that under the
present system, there are some attor-
neys who are invariably successful be-
fore judge or jury. Everywhere men
are convinced that there is something
radically wrong. A poor devil may
be easily convicted of petty larceny and
suffer for it,, but when man who
counts his dollars By the thousand
shoots another in cool blood, or swindles
the poor of their hard earnings, has his
trial he is discharged. Why? For
the reasons known to those who OBJ
tain his acquittal. Thefe are men who
can interpret the signif ance of wink
or gesture who cannot remember q
word of the testimony or law, and
they are often found among those pro-
fessicnal Jurors, who are certainly at
the court-hou.e when there is somebody
to be tried.
Whenever the laws are so shaped
that men of acknowledged integrity,

my duty to disappoint their wishes,
much as am sorry 10 learn their need
of temperance in Eldorado, no one can
truly say, henceforth, that they are un-
willing 10 have it. They stand ready
and waiting TO hear any good speaker
on this reform, and also, as believe, to
adopt any reasonable measures to carry
il out. In few weeks it will be my
pleasure to return, and, as Mr.. Lincoln
said about the peace he desired, to stay
until all attainable sobriety is accom-
plished at Eldorado. Let industry,
economy, sobriety, integrity and purity
be cherished in that community, and
with its unsurpassed natural adVanta-
ges, it will be the Eden of the most
