EDUCATION.

1t has become the accepted theory of
American statesmen, OF the press, and
Of the people, that upon the education
of the masses depends the perpetuity of
free institutions in America. Not only
has common school System been en-
acted into law in all of the States,
with every facility for the education Of
the poorest in the commonwealth, but
some Of the States--Nevada among the
number-have enacted stringent COM
pulsory education law, providing ade-
quate penalties for the violation of its
provisions. So far we have heard of no
infraction of the statute in the State OF
Nevada. Education. however, does not
signify mere drilling of youth by
means of books, maps, and slate and
pencil, but in much else that is SO fitting.
ly expressed in Hsald's College Journal
(San Francisco) for November, that we
copy the greater portion OF its article on
the subject;
Educate your children, parents; moi
merely in scholastic requirements, bu,

tons they are to occupy when they be.

to the duties that the world will require

REST FOR THE WEARY.

1t has been truly said that it is not
work, but worry, that kills so many peo-
ple-drives them in many cases to dissi-
patton, and eventually into premature
graves. Particularly is this the case
among people SO excitable as those Of
the Pacific coast, where fortunes are won
or lost in single hour, and where the
mind is kept continually on strain.
The great remedy for the over-tasked en-
ergies-whether mental or physical-is
rest, and how to obtain that rest SO es.
sential to the prolongation Of life is o
question which suggests itself. Escula.
plus. in a communication to the Reno
journal, on the subject of "wakeful
ness" expresses ideas well worth copy
ing. He says that wakefulness is due tc
four causes, running to numbers, as fol
lows:
l. Excessive and long-continued intel
lectual exertion, or powerful mental emo
tons.
2. Positions of the body which tend to
impede the flow of blood from the brain,
and, at the same time, do not obstruct
its passage to the brain. Lying with the
head too low is one of these positions
and bed, the foot of which is higher
than the head, forces US to take an
other.
8. Certain substances taken into the
stomach-such as alcohol, strong tea,

the thoughts of children-that period
when they will be men and women. and
enter into the game that every person
must play during his existence in the
world. This part of O child education
is often greatly, if not entirely neglected.
From school, children are sent out into
the world with their adscrammed with
book knowledge, having travelled the
paths that thousands before them have
Travelled, and when they have arrived at
the end of it, they know that the world
has existed for thousands of years, that
thousands of great men have lived IN IT,
and nations have arisen and fallen, and
that great and glorious things have been,
and constantly are achieved; but OF
the world itself they know nothing.
and thus, ignorant of all the ms and
outs that constantly beset them. they are
ushered into that sphere that has been
| left for them by those who have filled
their places and gone to that home which
we all most assuredly will, at last, occu'
py. Now this is radically wrong. A
knowledge of the world and its affairs il
necessary to enable them to obtain an
honorable living, and prove credit tc
the society in which they move. Parents
can not be too careful in selecting I
school to which to send their children
Much that is useless is taught because j
is fashionable, and much that is essentia
to success in life is omitted because mos
schools do not know how to impart it
We believe that, all things considered
Heald's Business College is the mos
useful school to which you can send you
children, after they have acquired tn
rudiments of good English education
and are ready to be fitted for the pract'
cal concerns of life. 1t is thorough il

and practical in its system of trainin
the young for career of usefulness. 1t
remarkable success and present popular
ity are good guarantee that its wor
has been well done.

In the course Of his remarks he said the
people of Tennessee would see for them
selves whether the present agitation oil
the subject of the Cuban affairs was war
or peace. They have read the protocol,
which was honorable TO the United
States and not dishonorable to Spain,
and they will look on President Grant as
a leader of theirs in this transaction,
while they will not forget the wisdom
and caution of the Secretary of State,
through whom the instrument was cor

New YORK, Dec. 4.-The bondholders

trustee in place Of his late brother.
The statement is made that private
letter has been received in this city,
showing that Maxine Gomez, to avenge
the shooting OF those captured on the

Der of Spanish fortified camps in the vi.

word to Burriel to come out and bury

The GENERAL ToPIc.-Concerning the
late resignation Of California Senator,
the Sacramento Union says:
Casserly states in his letter something
not altogether consistent with his recent
caudidature for reelection. He says his
friends well know that he has long de-
sired to withdraw from the Senate, and
from political life. This a remarkable
statement in view OF the very active part
he is generally thought to have taken
for reelection. And, as if the Sen
ator recognized the weakness of
this statement, he finally concludes
to put his resignation on the ground
of failing health and lack of strength
to discharge the duties of Senator.
This last is perfectly valid excuse, but
one which we believe has never before
been given by Senator. Casserly is
entitled to public THANKS for an example
which we hope to see very often followed
in the future. In fact there is no reason
why a man out of health and lacking in
strength should hold the senatorial any
more than any other Office. The State
needs its strongest and ablest men in the
Senate, and We thank Casserly for his
modesty in resigning for want of healtl
and strength.

A COUNTY WAR.-Old Californians will
remember the protracted strugglein Cali
fornia over the State Capital between the
friends of San Jose and those of Vallejo,
which lasted three or four years, and fin
ally ended in permanent location of the
seat of Government at Sacramento
County wrangles over the seat of justice
have occurred also in our neighboring
ing State across the Sierra-Calavera
having been the most conspicuous, But
these rivalries are not confined to the
Pacific coast, for recently county in
Indiana was shaken to its center over a
contest OF the kind mentioned. The st.
Louis Republican relates the following:
There is or lately has been lively
county war in Indiana. The county
which is divided against itself is Wayne.
The cause of the war was the removal Of
the county seat from Centreville to Rich
mond. The matter has been passed
upon by the courts, which decided in
favor of the removal to Richmond, the
law having been complied with by suf-
ficient percentage of petitioners asking
for the change. The Centreville people
became very sore over the subject, and
highly exasperated at the proceedings to
carry out the design. The court records
were removed by the Sheriff and an
armed posse of deputies and assistants,
who, it is said, behaved very roughly
towards the Centrevillians. They
got away with the records without
bloodshed, and carried them triumph
antly to Richmond amid demonstra-
tions of joy by the assembled people
Of the new county seat. Centreville was
proud OF its jail 1t cost $4,000. and
was ornamental as wells as useful. There
was an order to remove the Jail, and
workmen were sent to pull it down and
cart it away FIVE miles to Richmond.
The workmen were hindered by the Cen
treville people, who during the night
would destroy their tools, derricks and
other machinery, and finally an armed
force was sent to protect them, and keeI
guard at night. Thus the work of re.
moving the Jail is proceeding, and the
Centrevillians have two brass cannon in
reserve somewhere, which they have MOI
brought to the front as yet. But the jai
is disappearing stone after stone, and til,
iron railing which surrounded it nov
makes an Enclosure in Richmond.

large number of shots were fired into the

CALIFORNIA SENATORIAL COM
PLICATIONS.

The Sacramento Record, of Monday,
contains leading editorial on the resig-
nation of Mr.. Casserly, saying in the
outset that the event "has put new
complexion on the contest, and tested
the skill OF political prophets rudely. {"
The Record notes the various aspirants,
viz: Ex-Governor Haight. n. Greene
Curtis, Hoge, Roach, Farley, Wallace
and Paul X. Hubbs, as Democratic cam
didates; FELTON,, Miller and Cole on the
Republican side; and Booth and Edger-
ton rs Dolly Warden aspirants. From
careful perusal Of the Records article,
We discover an intense desire on the part
of that organ of the straight Republicans
to form combination with the Demo-
Gratis, even to the extent of yielding to
that party the Senator for the long term.
We predicate this belief upon the follow
ing extract:
It cannot be doubted that the charges
OF bribery which were preferred against
Casserly, and his refusal to take any &C.
ton regarding them, rendered him q
heavy load for many of his friends te
carry, and gave Booth an advantage over
him. His withdrawal removes this OBJ
stacle, and affords an opportunity to the
Democrats to put up man who bears {
stainless record, and whose public career
will contrast favorably with tina. Of th'
Dolly Warden candidate. This is clear
gain, and if utilized as it should be will
give the Democrats the election of Gas
serlys successor. The position Of tn
Republican party is not material.
changed by the Senator's resignation
bat the indications are that they ma,
secure at least the short term candidate
The idea that the Democrats will be con
tent with that or that they will conced
the long term to the Dolly Nardens un
der any circumstances, is untenable. A
we have said before, the Dollies hav
nothing to offer in return.
