TIA QUESTION ARGUED WITH REFER
ENCE 70 CHICAGO SCHOOLS.
The question of a healthy moral
ltone maintained in mixed schools
must be met rather by fact than by
theory. an experience of more than
thirty years in teaching and super
intending mixed schools has furnish
ed far less occasion for fear of injury
to the moral tone of either sex, and
of course that OF society as a whole,
than was furnished me within the
limits of an ordinary college course
to which young men only were admit
81.
Acquaintance through actual
observation, especially where that
observation lies in the line of intellec-
tual peeuliarities, has decided
advantage over that acquired through
casual meetings in society, in which
the externals are prominent, and
where too often q dazzings and
delusive gloss hides the real charact-
er. Earnest contests for superiority
in the classroom beget sincere
respect for the real worth of an
opponent, especially when difference
of sex secures habiual courtesy.
To know ones habit of thought, and
ones grasp of intellect, and to feel
the stimulus of a generous rivalry In
that which exercises the brain II is
worth more in forming an estimate of
character than to witness taste dis
played in dress, grace OF motion,
brilliancy in conversation, and the
general accomplishments which be-
come society manners. The home
life of the future years will depend
upon what the men and the women
who are to make the homes, are. In
the years of training each sex will
strive to become just what each thinks
the other to be. False estimates
will eyentuate in sad disappoint-
meDts.

Thanksgiving.
BY JOHN G., WHITTIER.

Once more the liberia! year laughs out
Oer richer stores than gems of gold
Once more with harvest song and shout
Is natures bloodIess triumph told.
Our common mother rests and sings,
Like Ruth among her garnered sheaves
Her lap is full Of goodly things,
Her brow is bright with autumn leaves.
Who murniurs at his lot to-day?
Who scorns his nGtive fruit and bloom?
Or sighs for dainties far away.
Beside the bounteous board of home?
Thank Heaven, instead, that freedoms arm
CaL change rocky coil to gold
That brave and generous lives can warm
A.clime with northern ices cold.
And let these affairs Wreathed with flowers
And piled with fruits, awake again
Thanksgiving for the golden hours
Theeary and the latter rain.

expressive of her appreciation of the sentl-

which they gave rise to. Her name was
withheld at her desire, but her letter to the
jeweler was forwarded with the testimonial
In 1t she said, "Tbe war widowed me and

AN OPEN LETTER FROM HON. C. G.
WILLIAMS.

EVANSVILLE, Nov. 90.
ELIAS a. CALKINs, ESQ, EDITOR OF
THE MILWAUKEE ENTHUSIASTICALLY ell
ection is now over, and address you this
note, which if you do not publish, / in
tend to.
The News Of yesterday contains the
following;
"Charlie Williams, COngressman-elect
from the First District, who conducted
his campaign with personal abuse alone
of his opponents, etc"
| have spoken eighteen times in the
canvass, and every man, woman andchifd
who has heard me knows the above to be
false. So fer from it's being true, or bear
ing even the semblance OF truth, have
been commended by members of all par.
ties for the uniform kindness and candoy
with which have spoken IF political obs
ponents.
Mr.. Calkins: You and I were once per-
sonal friends, though political opponents:
our families visited back and forth you
never lost an opportunity to speak kind
word OF ne in your journal aud some Of
the most fattering personal notices Ihave
ever received have fallen from your pen.
Once when thought bad done you
great personal kindness, you came to me
with tears trickling down your face, and
grasping my hand, youused these worlds
"Charles Williams, you have helped me
save home for my wife and children; if
ever in Gods world can aid you l am
going to do it,"
These kindly relations continued until
your claim against the state for $1,000
was defeated in the State Senate in 1871.
|, with Others, voting against it.
From that time, as you know, and as
others know, you have vowed vengence
upon me, and the fulfillment of that
threat you have done your best to realize
in the canvass just past, using for its &C.
ccmplishment towards weapon, for
public journal welded for personal spite.
is nothing else.
You have published, that through my
inefficiency, Racine lost her harbor appro-
priation, which you know to be false, as
you know that Racine received $4,000.
the same as Milwaukee.
You have published that l supported
an appropriation for carriage and horses
for the Attorney General of the United
States, when you know that voted against
it.
You have repeatedly published that I
and voted for what you are
pleased to term the Centennial steal,''
when you have been as often informed
that the bill upon which spoke was
simply to correct the language of an ex-
listing law, and had nothing to do with
the expenditure Of money; that I voted
a yainst the centennial appropriation BILL
and that the entire Wisconsin delegation
save one, voted in taver of the first bill
while most of them voted against the Sec
ond, as did.
Yet you have knowingly repeated these.
during the lass i've.
months.
That you are moved by malice, know,
but have you become SO malicious SO to
lose all sense efficiency and all regard for
truth? Ifnot. why publish statcmentsso
reckless and so false.
That cannot cope with you in your
chosen field of journalism am quite
aware. To attempt it would be like Civ
ng an enemy revolver and offering to
light him with the make d fist. I have
written this with no view to controversy.
,ut as a vindication of the simple truth,
Respectfully, CHAs. G. W11LIAEs.

when educated apart, are far different
from those they would read together,
and the impression either gains from
the books alone are wide of the real
truth as revealed in the life of the
other, as il become better known
through more intimate acquaint-
ance.
1t is best that this acquaintance be
formed upon a plane higher than
that occupied by society asst is term
ed, the plane Of thought. To this
end the schools are the best places for
forming mutual acquaintance.
1t is good for the boys that they
receive the refining influence of the
girls; but will not the girls suffer
rom contact with coarse, often
vulgar, boys? Is not the atmosphere
OF the public school redolent with
coarse and impure thougetp Such
questions are asked, I believe hon
estly, by many who would gladly
have their children under none hut
the most refining infuetces. My
answer is: 1t may be so, but not to
greater extent than is found in
association with domestic servants,
audwith childrenof the neighborhood.
There are scattered through every
society those whose tastes are low,
whose language is unchaste, whose
habits are corrupting, and with whom
we must come in contact to greater
or less degree; but | most stoutly
deny that the public school has an
undue proportion of such. On the
contrary,it can be maintained thatthe
corrupting influences Of cur mixed
pubic schools are less potent than
0 hers oicollegesand semnaries,W where
either sex is educated to the exclu-
sion of the other. Those whose
corrupt influence is the most insinua-
ting are those who have studied the
art of concealment; who can wear
well the mask of hypocrisy; who are
refined in manner and speech, and
whose power la realized whom it is
too late to escape it.Those whose sur
roundings are low, and who speak
and act overtly, warn in advance, aud
their influence is thus destroyed, their
poison escaped.
Public schools teachers are as
correct in life, as decided in influence
as keen to detect wrong-doing as any
other teachers. Public school
authorities are as prompt as other
to remove any causes of offense. IF
we may judge from the surroundings
Of some Of our colleges, students are
retained there who would not be toll
Grated SINGLE day in any Of our
mixed public schools. Because of
the fear that feminine modesty may
be shocked by the exhibition of
masculine vulgarity, prompt measures
are taken to prevent, and decisive
measures are resorted to, to cure any
improprieties of conduct. Candor
compels me to say that dangers are
net all nor always upon one side.
But these cases, which have called
forth so long discussion, are very
enceptionGh The prevailing moral
tone of our mixed schools is of high
type. When schoolj restraints are
removed there may appear, and
doubtless does appear, on the part Of
some, tendency to immortality, be
gotten at home in many instances,
encouraged by parental neglect in
others. This is not chargeable to
the school, nor is it as strong as it
might otherwise be, because of the
school influence. But such associa-
tons are not enforced upon other
pupils of the same school. unless
desirable. They may be permitted |
through neglect.
