the Editor of the "St. CrOix Avis"
Mr.. Editor!

am a constant reader of your paper,
and as such | very often notice things in
Structiye, amusing and also yeXin2. The
last mentioned made its appearance in your
issue of 14th inst, in the shape of a Nissan
thronist, oh some names arc hard to re-
member, | mean, "a PhilanthrOpist."
This gentleman, who, l thought, had
died from the wounds inflicted on him by
the "manger dog" or verify shot by the
"minute-guns'' of Mr.. "Nobody," has posi-
lively made his appearance again like a
haunted ghost with the burden of paro-
chial schools on his back, and a tremen-
dous weapon in his hand to pull down the
public schools, to make place for him to
establish his hobby, parochial schools.
| did not think that Mr.. Phi. would have
ventured to come out again.after reading RS
article, which so ably showed up the good
Of such institutions on a sure basis, and at
the same time displayed a correct know
ledge OF the Parsons nowadays-n0 money,
no gospel. R. seems to know exactly what
they do, and what they do not like to do;
and [ add that $3.50 p. a. would not be
sufficient inducement to those gentlemen
to leave the more profitable work of their
congregations to attend to schools In or
der to do justice to Ph.'s assertion we must
look into the past history of denomination
al schools and see how far they have stood
the test Of his experience, which must be
yet young.
The Episcopal Church under a very yea
lous man, Revd Almon, established such a
school, and he tried his best to facilitate it
but it still failed. The Roman Catholic
likewise. Certainly then something more
than pastoral influence is required.
Mr.. Phi. asserts las an indomitable truth
that the present attendance of the paro-
chial schools, now in operation, is better
than that of the public schools this l must
deny, and will show, from the following
history of one Of these schools, how it has
fuctuated.
Rev. G6tz, who was a thorough school
man, void of pre- udice and possessing very
liberal views, undertook to establish the
