OPINIONS AS TO THE LAWS.
Mr.. William II. Nelson was called upon by a
re potter Of the HERALD for tns purpose ascer-
tanning his Judgment as to the effect OF the law
and its probable working among the children or
the poor. MIR. Nelson Is cnan man OF the Board OF
Education, and therefore spoke as one having
authority. He SAID mat ne had not the slightest
doubt Of the trac!cal good OF the law. The effect
OF its passage was already MANIFEST There
SCHOOLS nov, and 1t mad been traced to lne
seriousness on ths part q raren that tney would
school soon, and therefore they had now
made a virtue oi coming necessity,
This had-been iound to oe tile ae ual Iacf IN the
case OF several scaools where there was an IN
I Law was peremptory IN lts provisions and penal
where they were not luiiilied. u was the inten-
\ tion OF the Board OF Education 10 carry out lts
PROVISIONS as merciuiy anu AS CONSIDERABLY as
possible. in these hard times 1t was elninentiy
desirable that TINS law should not increase the
burdens Oh the poor. He Thought tue Board
could meet cases of TINS Kind tgrou III the two
provisions oil the act, which allowed attendance
/ Ia evening SCHOOLS ana an appropriation on be-
halt OF tne children whose parents were unable to
provide ior me incidental expenses ot the educa-
tOn. lie had NOT The SHADOW oil a doubt as 10 the
absolute necessity and wisdom OF the act
/ Mr.. Henry kldale, the Cty superintendent OF
Schools, said that tie practical enect OF the uh-
ment OF the law ia New YORK would be that the
Board would nave 10 increase the number OF the
evening scnoo.s, ana proDaDiy the stan OF the
presens existing schools Parents generally TO
wHom the earnings OF their children were OF i'm

tnelI children 10 school ior an extended period;
be practical difficulty IN dealing with the
vaaran5 cnIlaren. u possibly might be, found
their destruction. There was difficulty OF
somewhat similar character under the
present system, and WHICH difficulty, under
the Compulsory Education law, would certainly be
Intensified. It was that OF lncorrglble and insub-
ordinate boys, who every day were being dis
missed rom the scnooi These the law compels
the Board TO EDUCATE, ami the result would be the
imperative necessity 1or the substitution OF cor
poral punishment 10 boys OF tnis character.
the Rev. rnoGas : Preston Vicar General and
Chancellor o. the Roman Catholic Archdiocese OF
I New York says taat ne thoroughly approves oil
the Compulsory Edueation act. AZ far as It's prin-
clpe Is concerned, tnat OF obiglng lhe education
OF the clllaren IL meets with MIS- entire support.
In the detail of the law he thinks that there are
principles Involved which he as Catholic, objects
to. In the city oi New YORK nearly hall the popu.
lation belonged tn the Catholic Cnarca, whicn GER
tainlY had one-hen or the children. lie
thought thai the census OF the chill
dreu about TO be taken would show
