DEATHS.

Lines written on the death Of KATE SPAERON
DsyZIEg Youngest child ef John and Mary Il
Dcnzlcr:
Kindred hearts FOR thee are weeping,
And with deepest anguish torn:
They miss the little one that's sleeping
In her narrow prison home
Ere her life :. grief had known. .s
Sleep. gentle Siumbcrcr, calmly sleep!
Precious gem for earth too bright:
Angels will their vigis keep,
ROBBED in pure and spotlcss white.
Rest, sweet one, from sin secure.
On that bright celestial shore
Where pain and suffering are no more.
Dear little Katie, budding flower.
Emblem thou vert of innocence and hope
Now blooming i'll u swcetcr bower, where
ycplyrs breathe their softest note:
Lcuning on tue Saviour's breast,
Endless home OF the blcSt-homc ni
Righteousness. peace, and rest.

The Public-SchoUl System.

We commence this morning the publica-
ton Of the rcioinder OF DIR. DABNEY to the
reply made BY DR.. RUFFNEE to the formers
letter in the Southern Planter. The views
OF two such men on a subject OF so much
Importance cannot well be otherwise than
interesting TO the public. We feel, how
ever. y strong conviction that the cues
ton at issue is not practical one
that is, that the pub!ic-school system Is an
institution whose popularity will increase
year by year, and whose position is already
so cntrcnchcd that it will never be carried
either 10y STORM or gradual approach. 4" The
thing that hath been is the thing that shall
be- We can read the future history OF the
system in the past history OF like system
in the northern States. So strong hold
have the public schools upon the pco-
pic OF the North that the political
parties there are always anxious to
show clear record in regard to them.
MAST never fails TO represent them as in
danger from the Pope, or from the Demo
Gratis, or from whomsoever Harper's weekly
Is making war upon at the time. in ONO
last fall WILLIAM ALLEN lost his election as
consequence OF the prejudice which tho
Republicans succeeded in exciting against
the Democratic party Of that State. The
GYGHEN law could not stand moment be-
fore The popular gaze, although it had no
direct connection with the public schools.
1t was u law supposed to have been passed
TO please the Roman Catholics; and rs these
were suspected OF being hostile to the pub
lie schools, it was not hard to convince some
voters that the Democrats would probably
try to please the Catholics in regard to them
as it had done in regard to the Objectionable
law alluded to. Many facts might be refer
red TO to show that nothing else is SO popu-
h lar in the northern States rs the system
II OF public schools.
~ The public-school system Of Virginia will
: III a few years occupy the same place in the
affections OF our people that the public
schools OF the North do in the hearts OF the
people OF the latter section. There is no
reason that we can think OF why the result
in Virginia should be different from what it
has been wherever such systems have been
tried. Even now every candidate for popu-
l.r support makes it his business to let
everybody understand that he Is a great
friend TO the public schools. And different
state of things is not likely to exist i'll the
future. DIR. RUFFSER need do no fighting.
The system fights Tor itself.
Nevertheless, let US hear what is said TO
be said on both sides of the question. Per-
hapS Dr.. DABSEY will give some hints which
will lead TO improvements in the system.
At any rate, We bespeak for his articles an
attentive pertisal.
The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1876-04-20
in his speech Oh Monday Mr.. IuckE

in his speech Oh Monday Mr.. TUCKER
said:
wherever the power Of this House goes
TO the Imprisonment Of a man one moment
bpyondtle extent OF this privilege. the power
Of every court and every Judge IN the ,anu
is bound to discharge the party upon ha'cas
corpus. And think that ii Mr.. Pat. " oods
could hear this he would know that he had
hecn imprisoned ,lnjustly and unconstitu-
tionally By this House."
That is to say, the House could order
person by it committed for contempt TO De
imprisoned only until the end Of the session.
This is very different from the position that
he could be held until the existence OF the
House itself had como to an end, since the
latter would involve She doctrine that the
Senate, perpetual body, could imprlson
man for life.

"Of No Political Significance. -

A letter received in this city yesterday.
from thoroughly thruthful and RESPONSE
BILE source. states that Joe McKittrick, a
prominent Democrat, of Baton Rouge, with
one of his associates, went to the house OF
John s. Chapman, leading white Repub-
lican of that parish, involved him in a quar-
rel, during which he was shot through the
body, and his wife badly cut in the face.
Fortunately, the wound in Chapman'a
body, though painful, is not onsidered
mortal. McKittrick was not arrested.
The same letter states that leading col
ored Republican was taken from his house
in the fourth ward of that parish last Fri
day night, and it is supposed he has been
made way with, as nothing has since been
heard Of him. 1t is reported two other col
