popular, and there is little doubt that they
are the best schools in the State. But the
fact that there are good schools in Nash
vile, where four or five thousand children
are or may be instructed and all within an
area of four or five square miles, and tax
able property of fifteen millions, furnishes
no argument for free schools in Lincoln
county, with six hundred square miles, an
equal or greater number of children and
about five millions or one third the taxable
property of Nashville.
The idea that the success of public
schools is dependent on wealth and popula-
ton may be further illustrated by drawing
a comparison between the population and
resources of Massachusetts and those of
Tennessee.
The whole population of the former State
exceeds the population of Tennessee by
two hundred thousand, and as the
school age is from five to fifteen years, the
scholastic population is less than that of
Tennessee. The area Of that State is five
times less than the area Of this State; the
taxable property is five times as much as III
Tennessee. A tax of fifty cents in Massa-
chusetts would raise fund of six or seven
millions of dollars, while it would require
a tax nearly five times as large to raise the
same amount in this State.
There is in Massachusetts, one teacher OF
a public school to every square mile, and an
average of thirty-three or thirty-four chill
dren to the mile. Here we have not an ay-
erage Of more than ten to the square mile.
These facts demonstrate the impossibility
of maintaining in every State the same sys-
TEN of schools. 1t would be just as rea-
% oxyvDacf q DOOr man tn send his
son to Heidelburg or Salamanca, as to ex-
meet a poor State or county TO erect school
houses and maintain schools equal to the
best in the country.
These statistics forcibly furnish an argu-
ment in favor of our county system. II
the aggregate wealth Of the whole State is
insufficient to maintain schools during eight
or ten months of the year, then good
schools ought not to be denied those coItn-
ties in which they may be kept without
