TEACHING SOUTHERN YOUTH.

In the Senatorial debate oflast Monday, Mr. Blaine
called attention 10 arithmetic on which Southern
youths are fed and he quoted from it the startling
problem:
II ten cowardly Yankees have two DAYS start, and
make ght miles day. how long VIII they run before
being oyertakon by Ave brave Confede ates who
pursuing them at the rate oi ten miles dayi
Mr. Blaine might have quoted equally choice bits
from other Confederate schooi-books, If it were
worth while The First Dixie Reader and the Phi
mary Geography were published for the ayowed
purpose of rendering tho Southern youth indepen-
dent Of tue corrupt Yankee teachings" From the
Reader we Gull as follows:
bad woman cannot he o good grandma. because
she does not know how. God Is good TO give us sueh
grand-aas.......Wel done for the dar-kles! Many
poor hc people would be glad OF what they leaVe 10
the hogs.
The last sentence of an apecdote is:
They SAID &" If the dog dies we will trust in Cod;
but the dog got WELL and still lives TO guard Bis masters

touching salutation "Adieu-at presentp
