" The Sweet By-and-B

Go where We may. We are sure TO hear the
pathetic melody Of the Sweet BY and>By."
Was there eyer so much MUSIC in four sim
pie monosylIables There is hope wrapped
up ia them-an articulate beat Oi the human
heart. "By-aud By,' We heard it as long
ago as We can remember, when We made
brici but perilous journeys from chair to Ia
BILE aud from table to chair again. We
heard 1T the other day, when two parted that
had been glowing in their livss'-one to the
shadow of Lone Mountain and the other to
the gloom of dc5olste home. Everybody
SAYS it-some time or other. The little boy
whispers it when be dreams of exchanging
the little stubbcd boots for those of the man
The man murmurs it-WheD, IN lifs's middle
watch, he sees his plans half 6oished. aud
his ,.opes, yet in the bud, waving in the cold,
late spring The old man says it-Hhen he
thinks of putting off the mortal for the i'm
murral-to day for to morrow. The weary
wstch for the morning, and while away the
dark hours with ''by-sDdby." Sowetimes
it sounds like song; sometimes there is q
sigh or sob in it. What wouIdD't the world
give to find it in almanscs-se down some
where, no matter if in the dead of Deeem-
ber-to know that it wnnld surely come |?
But fairy-like as it is-fitting like a star
beam over the deWy shadow of years-Dobody
can spare il. and we look upon the msDy
times these words have begniled u.s. the menu
ory of the silver by and By" as like the
sunrise of Ossian, "pleasant but mournful to
the SOUL"

money in hand will contribute to the growth
of confidence by at once applying it to the
payment of any bills they owe, as by doing
so they will aid their creditors to meet in

HIGH

Memphis is not the only city in which
the propositions to discontinue high
schools is freely discussed. The papers
of Boston, Cincinnati and Louisville have
spoken out very plainly on this subject
within the last few months. The i'm
practicability of giving the masses what
is called high school training and the
injustice Of educating a few for the pro-
f~essions and easy positions at the ex'
penss Of the many, whose children could
not accept free collegiate education if
offered, are distinct issues beginning to
be understood. In its false and falla-
cious political economy which teaches
that a boy or 8 girl will be untitled for
citizenship and the everyday duties OF
life at maturity without a knowledge of
the higher branches Of education not
taught in the common schools. We have
only to look around us for illustrations.
Hundreds of the most successful and
useful citizens Of Memphis completed
their common school education at a
country school-house at the tender age
of fourteen or fifteen, as the Appeal has
it, and never went to college or any other
school. We are willing to select one
hundred such men and put them against
one hundred graduates taken een:seu.
