Renewal of the silver Struggle,

A great struggle is pending between
the people and the money power upon
the silver question. The National Banks
have inaugurated the movement for its
repeal by treating the law remonitizing
silver with contempt and virtually an
nulling it,so far as they are able to do so,
in refusing to recognize silver as a money
metal or legal tender. The key note has
been sounded by the banks and is echoed
all along the line by the agents of the
money power. One of the latter, ex-
Congressman F. A. Conkling, of New
York, delivers himself of long COM
munication on the subject in the New
York Sun, of which the following ex-
tract is a choice sample. 1t is evident
that the silver question will hold an i'm
portant place in the elections until the
issue which was raised, by the surrep-
titious demonitizing of the metal is de-
initely settled one way or the other
The Silver bill has received from the
press or the people the Reproduction which
il deserves. 1t staB6s out cOnspicuously
among the infamies of a Congress which
VIGOROUSLY, in both its branches, contains
larger number Of ignorant, reckless, and
venal men than any which has preceded it,
1t has robbed the people, and pre-eminent-
IL that portion or the people which was
least able TO bear the loss, of from 10 TO 30
per cent. of their hard earnings; aud TO-DAY
it menaces the faith OF the nation as per-
haps no other act OF Congress has ever done.
Ia the words of an able paper recently is
sued by the banks of this city, "Aa indirect
tax OF chis magnitude, unequal in its opera
ton, imposed upon people under the power
To coin money aud regulate the value there
of, and of foreign coins is certainly most
aRd untimelv exercise OF
power, under a Constitution formed to
establish justice and insure domestic tran
quiIlity.'"

Hon. j. b. Perkins, Austin Miss:
DEAR SIR: L leave the honor t. acknOw-
ledge receipt OF commun ication from the
Democratic Executive Committee of 1unica
county under date of tho II II inst.
L regret exceedingly that my action in
appointing Mr.. Owens to the office Of Treas
urer of your County does not meet with the
appro val OF yourself, and OF the Executive
Committee. l was aware that the vacancy
had existed for some time and was inform
ed by gentlemen in whom had confidence
that 1t was necessary that the vacancy be
filled by appolntIn ent under the act of 1873,
and that Mr.. Owens was a suitable man to
appoint. and that his appointment would
meet with the approval OF the people Of Tu-
MICA county Not hearing from yOu, or
your Committee took this as the wish of
your people and proceeded to make the aP-
pOintment.
The law declares that when vacancy
occurs, it shall be filed by the Governor
by appointment. TIE vacancy had oc-
Cured, of this | was informed, and the
name of Il gentleman, said to be worthy
and qualified, was presented, asked for the
office. and under the provisions OF the law
he was appointed.
Whether his appointment is satisfactory
or not, it il not only the province but the
duty OF the Boa of Supervisors, to order
an 81 ion To fill the unex pire1 term OF DR.
Sample. My appointment is supposed to
be temporary, and while in making it, |
shoulG be pleased to have had your advice
and that OF the Committee, yet il would
scarcely be expected, that /, with the law
before me, should wait an indefinite time
for that purpose.
Very respectfully, your obt. svt.

Female Education,
TO THE FATHERS AND MOTHERS OF OUR GIRLS
THE FOLLOWING THOUGHTS ARE sUG-
GESTED.

TO THE FATHERS AND MOTHERS OF OUR GIRLS
GEsTED.
There is no subject to which so little at
tention Is paid, yet so pregnant with the
great interest of the human race that of
female education The girls that are now
in the school rooms OF Mississippi are to be-
the future mothers of MiSSiSsiupians-the
earliest teachers of our grand children: and
as their earliest teachers they are to lay the
foundation for whatever posterity is to ac-
com plish. Do fathers aud mothers realize
the responsibility they are und to human
ity to educate their daughters? The State
IS spending thousands yearly for the educ a
ton of our sons, but upon us depends tne
fitness of our daughters for the holy posi-
ton of wife and mother. How many girl.
bring to the hymenial altar a knowledge of
the laws OF physiology aud hygiene; and
' ct. If she is to do her full duty by her of
spring, the mother should be thoroughly
educated in every law of health to modern
science. The future will demand much OF
the mothers of posterity; much more than
has been required of those of the past, be-
cause the Knowledge of the present day is
far in advance of the knowledge in the days
of our father- and mothers.
Inc education of every son and daughter
of the land is chiefly the work OF their
mothers; the least observation will convince
any one of this fact. Fathers are so alb
.orbed in business, in the family support,
that the entire onus of the family's culture
is laid upon the mother. From a long ex-
perience as educator, the writer knows
the fact that if the school pleases the IN 9TH
er, the father is satisfied to pay the bills,
and thinks duty ends with the financial
part of the transaction, having entire con-
fidence in the mothers culture and judg-
ment.
Let us then discuss this important SUI ieet,
and attempt to eliminate from the present
system of female education the many errors
with which it is embarrassed, and add to
this system much that is useful, and we
may say absolutely necessary.
Ii the editor OF the Carton will give the
writer space, he will have a word to saw to
the girlsthemselves in future issue of this
paper, for there is no one more Interested in
their welfare than their sincere friend,
EDUCATOR.
