Children whose brain development is un-
usually large in comparison with the body,
are most frequently singled out for prema-
ture final resting place. Why is this? Simp-
ly because the functions of the body are too
frail to supply the waste going on in the
brain consequent upon active intelligence.
Fellows Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites
is SO prepared that it imparts the vital prin-
ciple directly to the brain, while 1t assists In

SATURDAY 3RD JANUARY 1872,

WHEN assuming the duties of Editor OF
this little sheet, we never for one moment
had the idea, much less the desire to estab-
lish ourselves in any exceptional position
we have a real dread and fixed aversion to
outward phylacteries and empty show
hence, q seat on a %"throne", IN our minds al
~unenviable and uncomfortable position,
was far from our aspirations. We simply
desire in our relations to citizens and III
habitants Of this Island to be an Equal
among Equals at all events nothing else
or more than an Indicator to People and 10
the Government 1t is our chlrt desire IN
our editorial capacity to point out the
smoothest and most agreeable road on
which the People may meet Government
and Government meet the People. The
"St. Thome Tidende" Of 9th January IN
forms it's readers that our predecessor has
AFFILIATED "the editorial throne" which ue
must therefore be supposed to have ascend
ed. : We politely decline the great honor
intended us. At the same time we beg to
thank our worthy contemporary tor the
hearty welcome he has offered US and if
Ire will but descend from HIS throne to
meet US, we shall readily return his grasp
but across the waters.
Every right minded man loves his native
land beyond the land Of adoption. We
desire in all our dealings to be sincere and
candid ; hence, we could not refrain in our
first Editorial to set it before our readers
that although we are not born here,
vet our attachment to the Island Is
such that we would consider ourselves
happy if we in any manner could cOntri-
butte towards the Development OF its re-
sources. There is here no question of
evoking any spirit Of nationality; and be
It said once for all, we could never for one
moment establish a difference of nationality
between the Dane born in St. Croix and
the Dane born in the Island Of Sams0, or
TIVE the Dane born in st. Thomas and
one born in Mols. We can therefore see
nothing in our Editorial Of cath January
for our enthroned contemporary to ''depre-
cate. We owe him no allegiance, nor
do we even acknowledge his sovereignty
I'VE will therefore quietly lay his "depre-
cation" aside.
We must now bid him Adieu, as our
duties are numerous and pressing very
many sensible ideas are crowdlng in upon
us SO we have no time to waste on bar
rem discussions of such like questions as
hat of nationality.

AASSOSOiOAA VI LAC quCSIlOu WlICAuCA q pun
lie or u private school is the most condu-
Give to the future welfare of the pupils,
I'VE have already limited at that and shall
return to III it is unquestionably both the
interest and the duty of every community
TO provide, at the public expense, every
possible facility for such a complete aud
thorough training Of the young as would
nave a practical bearing and Influence on
life, and tend to the eradication Of 0nOtlOn
prevalent among US and which has sprung
from ignorance and slavery, that labour Is
degrading and to take the most e%fftctual
measures to bring within the scope of the
means thus furnished every child not other
wise suitably provided for in this respect,
Both the public welfare and the security
of individuals, imperatively demand that
none Of the members Of the community
should be permitted to grow up in igno-
rance, with It's almost invarlable attendants,
vice, thrittlessness, restitution and crime.
1t will not be enough for US to establish
schools, which we have done long ago, or
to reform them when necessary which we
intend to do, and throw open their doors
freely and inyltingly to every chiId;-lt Is
not enough that even the ampIest and
most lavish means be appropriated (ot
which there is no great hope) for the ex-
tension aud diffusion of such knowledge as
would make our thrittless Street-Ar8bs
thrifty and happy, while at the same time
we are compelled to contribute still more
literally to the repression, the detection
and punishment of crime and the support
of yugabondism and mendicity. We have
it in our power to prevent these evils TO o
very great extent, by cutting Oft their
source-by requiring at the hands of pa
rents, guardians and employers OF youth,
that the children confided to their care shall,
in some way, be properly instructed and
at all events, that they shall not, under any
pretence, be allowed to remain in utter and
hopeless ignorance, exposed to the hume
rous temptations incident to poverty and
want. The community has o right, and 1T
IS It's duty to require, that the outlay
which it invests in the education Of It's
citizens shall not be virtually counteracted
and rendered unayailing to the accomplish
ment of the purposes for which it is assign
ed, by the culpable and criminal neglect
Of a large portion of its members, to avail
themselves of the facilities thus placed u
their disposal. 1t has a right and it is Its
duty, to insist that for every dollar contri-
buted towards the education of the peO-
pie, at least an equal amount shall be de-
Quoted from the annual assessment tor the
maintenance and punishment of criminals
and the support of v~agabonds and paupers,
and this result it can secure only by gath
ering into its schools, provided for that
purpose, all those Of a suitable age for
whose mental and moral culture no other
adequate provision is made. To concen-
trate this whole preamble in q single SEN
tence We want compulsory primary edu-
cation we have it on paper. We would
beseech (f necessary, which it is mott our
Government to put it in force.

Shutting Down of the Oil Pro.
dUCtiOn.

NEW YORK, September 30.-Tbe Com
mercial, noticing the TACT that ats 6na'
meeting held on Saturday, the oil produc-
ers promised to shut off the Pennsylvania
wells for thirty days, that at mdnight
three ionrths Of the pumps were stopped,
and the remainder will censs to-day, which,
rs a natural consequence, as announced in
q dispatch from Titusville, he's advanced
prices in the market, and says: Considered
in the light Of bnsinets speculation, this
may be n shrewd movement, but the trades
which use great quantities Of oil will not be
more profitable in consequence of the rise in
price, and, the mechanics oil lamp will
cos thin double what II cost q month ego,
still the producers and dealers will get a
handsome profit, and it is, perhaps, unbe-
\ coming TO be critical.
