GRADUATES.

A large proportion of all the public as
semblages which have gathered for the
past ten days in this country, and have
been chronicled in the newspapers, are
those which related to schools. If we
Judge our educational system by the last
results it exhibits, by the final creatures it
makes when it finishes its man, opens
the school door, ushers him forth, saying,
the world is before you, one might well
suppose the end of what is called education
was to launch annually upon the country
as many young men with the title of law
yers, physicians, and with that somewhat
vague term graduates, as possible. No one
believes that in any legitimate sense one
tenth of these young men are either doc
tors, lawyers, or scholars; that they can
manage intricate or even plain cases at
law; can master the subtle symptoms that
denote the hidden causes in disease, or do
anything better for the world of letters
than that they have just done in their past
graduate addresses. Some have studied
hard for their medals and their sheepskins,
others have them without study; but all
of them when they stand face to face with
the world, nosegay in hand, saying, ''here
we are, you want us, will find that the
world, like the old sphynx that they
have read of in their classics, will ask
them questions too hard for them. Young
men, who among you has learned how the
pest Of grasshoppers may be extermina-
tedH With your subtle analysis of phil
osophy can you tell US whether Beecher
is guilty or innocentf
With your political economy, can you
give us sure guide to the road that will
lead US out of hard times This is what
the world wants to know. Can you answer
them with such solidity and clearness that
your words will carry conviction and
silence doubtf Then, Messrs. Graduates,
you stand ''plucked" at your first examina-
ton. But there is no room for discourage
ment. You are wanted in the field, in the
workshop, on the ship, in the mine-all
over the Union there is need of you.
Your attainments will stand you in good
stead if you determine to work But if you
rely on your college given honors for sup
port, you rest your life prospects upon a
basis as unsupportable as soap bubble. If
you determine to win in the race of life by
putting forth all the efforts and doing all
the work you would be ready to do had
you not been q graduate, and which you
suppose your young neighbor will have to
do because he has no diploma, you may
look for success, and your education will
be help, but now that you have gotten
away from your Alma Mater, remember
the world needs workers, not takers.

IT APPEARS somewhat strange that
nearly all those who, like the Vice Presi-
dent, are running about the country loose
In the endeavor TO find ou. the first
choice of leading Republicans for the
next Presidency, are apologists for the
shortcomings of the Republican party.
They have disguised themselves in the re-
form dress, and advertise themselves as In
dependents They talk about their old
party as If it had been indicted by the peo-
pie, and instead of defending it on the in
dictment, hasten TO put in a ''plea of
guilty. on its behalf. This is the same
line of conduct pursued by Colfax and Will
son. when accused of having owned stock
in the Credit Mobilier of the Union Pacific
railway. They acted as if guilty, and has
tened to 5Dver up their tracks instead Of
acknowledging that they had owned the
stock or interest, and had ''unloaded"
when they suspected that duty would call
them 10 vote or act on their own interests.
To all such Reformers we say "begin at
home. Reform yourselves. if you please,
but do not plead guilty for the party which
ia every State boldly defends its record. "

THE platforms of the Republicans of
Iowa and the Democrats of California
present some wonderful similarities, and
contrasts as well. They both favor hard
money as the only sound and reliable cur
rency, and oppose railway monopolies and
land grants for purposes of Improvements.
But the Iowsns approve the policy Of the
Administration. while the Democrats of
California denounce it as dangerous to the
country. The latter also indicate their op-
position to Government protection alike to
Southern Republican citizens and the
Chinese immigrants in California. 1t is q
little singular that the Democrats of to-day
should everywhere be found advocating
the oppression of the laborer. While
they insist that the country is overbur-
dened with debt, they persist in crushing
labor, the employment of which is the
only visible and honorable means of ex-
Treating it from its burdens. They pro-
pose the shorter road Of reputation, dis
honorable though it be, as the desirable
method of wiping out our obligations.

IT HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED in this journal,
by telegraph, that the New York EUsning
Post took possession of its new building,
at the corner of Fulton street and Broad
way, upon the first day of July. The Post
of that date was issued with a supplement-
containing a detailed description of the
new edifce, and the leading editorial arti-
Gle was devoted to the removal and to a
summing up of the work that has been ac-
complished by the Post during its long ex-
istence, and the results that it expects to
bring about some time in the future. The
removal of the journal which has so long
been conducted by Mr.. Bryant occurred
on the fiftieth anniversary of the day on
which he began to write for its pages, and
the journal notes the fact by congratulat-
ing Mr.. Bryant upon the beginning of the
golden year of his wedding to their pro-
fession. Another event which marks their
removal to new quarters is the reduction
in the price of the journal instead of five
cents it now sells for three cents per copy.
This is done for the purpose of increasing
its circulation, which has hitherto been
confined to men of culture and fortune,
among the greater multitude of labofing
men. The evidence Of success which this
removal into new ediice Of its own erec-
ton furnishes is most gratifying to the nu-
merUus friends of Mr.. Bryant and his ssso-
ciates. The Post is, and ever has been,
under the management of Mr.. Bryant. one
of the very best edited journals in the
country. It's columns are daily enriched
with the choicest notices of current litera-
ture while its records of science and art
criticisms and elevated moral tone are Of
inestimabls' value. In congratulating 1t
upon its occupation of new and improved

THE infamous audacity with which the
Loader-Price scheme to influence both the
public and jury by false revelations was
concocted. compares favorably with the i'm
becility exhibited in the attempt to execute
the same. Unless the perjurers, and those
instrumental in suborning them, are pun
ished with all the rigor of the law, justice
will soon be begging for recognition in
Brooklyn, and what little true inwardness
there is left in the City Of Churches will
feel like cat in strange attic.

IL QUESTION of the validity of I

THE QUESTION of the validity of mar
riage without the interposition of civil or
ecclesiastical functlonary has recently been
solved by an Indiana judge. There seems
to be nothing in the written or unwritten
law of the land, in custom or immemorial
usage that can prevent marriage when
performed In the presence Of competent
witnesses, with the simple assertion, 81
will love, respect and obey" from being
valid. In fact marriage of this nature is
so thoroughly legitimate that nothing but
death or the decree of competent court
can dissolve it.

THE PRESIDENT OF MEXICO has at last
obtained possession of the desperate and
cattle thief of the border. Cortlns is in q
fair way to be properly dealt with. The
citizens about Matamoras desire to rescue
him from the hands of the soldiers, but as
the latter have orders to shoot their pris.
oner in case of such an attempt it is not
likely that it will be made. 1t is to be
hoped that order will be preserved and that
Cortina will be punished as he deserves.
