more to be fostered than that of the
public school. Intelligence is the Sc
curity Of the Republic. as Ignorance is
the upholdiDg Of monarchy. TO in
sure ourselves against the disasters of
war, particularly civil war, we want
education diHused, that the minds of
our youth may be sufficiently taught
10 read and 10 distinguish between
right and wrong, and with such edu-
cation universally diffused the Repub
lie can never be IN danger. I only re-
greet that the statistics show la our
country as much iiliteracy as is shown.
/ waa surprised at some figures that /
heard repeated within few days but
when We consider the infancy of our
public-scnool system ii is probably not
so much to be wondered at. My hope
is that the day @ill come, and that not
far distant, when the school facilities
every here will be such that every
child may have the opportunity OF re-
ceiviDg a common school education at
| the e8 pense of the State, and, if il
should be necessary, that there should
| be in each STATE in this Union compul-
sorry education. FAppiause It would
be impossible, l suppose, with oar
views of State rights (which [ woul d
separate altogether from State sover-
eigntyj,-it would be impossible for
the General Government to demand q
compulsory school system 10 the
States. But the General Government.
SO long as it has public lands, might, il
it chose, contribute to the support oil
the free schools in the country, and
make any condition thatthe General
Government thought advisable before
a State could receive the benefit which
the General Government was going tC
bestow, and in that way indirectly
have part in the compulsory educa-
1 ton that I speak OF. OF course, you
understand that [ cay the State could
be the only authority TO compel educa.
ton within the State, but the General
| Govern ment, giving its assistance,
could come in on condition that the
State afford the facilities which every
| child requires for a common-school
educaticu.'

GRANTS RETURN.

Gen. Grant has at last girdled
the globe. Starting out from Phil
adelphia, he has once more returned
to that city, thus travelling, literally,
around the world. From the day
he left the city Of "Brotherly Love, :"
his travels have been through
one continual rounds of honors.
Kings and Emperors, suItans and
Pashas, cities and towns, nations and
continents have risen up to DO him
honor. Never before has an
American citizen received such an
amazing amount of attention.
Leaving America with all the press
tige Of his succeeful military career,
and disposition as twice President
of the United States, he has been
an American citizen of the
grandest type, and to this one fact
alone has he owed his triumphant
journey among all the cities through
which he has passed but one. Dub
lin has treated him with anything
but the highest respect. The Old
World, peasant and peer, subject
and sovereign, has united to well
come the greatest American.
Nor has his journey in America
been less remarkable. From the
time he put foot on United States
soil, at San Francisco, through the
States of the West, through vale
and mountain, over prairie or high
land, in the mines and on the farms,
in city, town and village, in Repub-
lican Chicago, Cincinnati, Phila-
delphia, and in Democratic Louis
vile, multitudes have gathered to
lift their voices to welcome the old
hero and to catch one glimpse of
his loved face, and those honors
were paid to him not as a partisan,
but to him as the representative of
the American people and in honoring
him they have honored US all.
But amid all this universal
laudation, amid adulation sincere
enough to have turned many
good mans head he has preserved
his manly, noble simplicity, and to-
day he is the same Grant that he
was before he began his triumphal
march around the planet. His
speeches, while they have
always been brief, have been
manly and sensible, and in those
short, pithy sentences may be dis
covered all the truths Of the age.
He has met the issues fairly and his
utterances have always been plat
forms upon which a party could not
be beaten.
The one delivered at Pittsburg,
in reply to an Grafton of welcome
from representative of the public
schools of that city, is especially
worth perusal

THE KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE
And Weekly Wing and Chronicle
for 1880.

Ou1iuS tno COMING AIcslucuuoi
year, tie DAILY CHRONICLE will
take aa active part in the vigorous
discussions of all political issues
involved, and will, a. the same
time, keep its readers folly posted
on all the important events of the
day. It will do whatever is honest
and legitimate to promote the sue
cess of the Republican ticket,
placing fidelity to the interest of
that party above any personal aims
or privata ambition. To this end
it will favor the selection of good
men with clear records, per-
sonal and political, for standard
bearers in the coming canvass, and
when such are selected, it will do
everything reasonable to secure
their success.
In State politics, the CHRONICLE
will support no man for any Office,
from Governor down to constable,
who is not in favor of paying the
State debt upon terms satisfactory
to the creditors of the State. It
will oppose the efforts of repudia-
tionists to drag the entire State
down to their low and degraded
standard, first, last and all the time,
and even though the repudiationists
should be successful, it will continue
to denounce them and their infa-
nous schemes.
The WING AND CHRONICLE will
be published weekly, as before, and
will be made up from the issues Of
the DAILY CHRONICLE. It will con-
tain a choice selection of miscella
neous matter each week, together
with editorials, telegraph and local
matter. Especial attention will be
given its columns, and everything
that could be Objectionable in the
family circle will be carefully ex-
cluded. It will be the object Of the
publishers to make it a welcome
visitor into the families of the
country.
Its market reports will be carefully
revised every Tuesday and made al
nearly perfect and reliable as pos
sible.
The Agricultural columns of the

close attention, and will be i'm
proved all the time. In this depart
ment, the views of practical farmer
on topics Of interest will be invited
