In the Herald of the 18th inst, was
q long article devoted to the criticism
Of Barnes History of the United
States which is now used in our
schools The ground taken against it
was that it is q "Rebel' History, and
various extracts were given to sustain
that position. The question as to the
propriety Of using such q history in our
schools has been discussed since then
quite generally in the community. OF
course 1t is the-duty of the historian to
be as impartial rs possible 1t Is only
the impartially written book which
withstands the critical storms Of the
centuriss-a history written not only
for our times but for those which are to
come. 1t is the duty of the historian to
give the historical facts without refer
ence to his personal feelings or opinions,
and If he can. do this without i'm any
way perverting the facts, he then be-
comes q successful historian. The au-
thor of the wsrk referred to a MANNED
Union soldier, as We understand it, in
endeavoring to be fair and unpreju-
diced has committed some errors even
in the opinion Of the fair-minded
Union man. He fails to censure in
strong enough terms the pernicious
doctrine of State Sovereignty. which
has been acknowledged by the best
legal minds of the world to he destruc-
tive in its tendency to our institutions
and such q conclusion is q proper
part of history. 1t is also certain that
treason is not made Odious in the work,
as it should be, not only for the North
ern but Southern youth. Some of the
Herdlds points are well taken others
are not true and perversion of the
language and ideas of the paragraphs.
The Herdld's objections to the book
are contained in the reading matter
found on the following pages 2l5,
PIG, 222, 225. 226. 237, 24O, PAL, 242, PA,
2i5, 26l, 262, a65. 269, 272, 275, ls9, 100.
While the work has Objectionable fea-
lures, what can we do to throw it out?
We have perused SwintOn's. Quack-
enbOs' and Venable's histories, and
find some Of the same objections in
those works. The Board of Education
can only reject Barnes upon four
fifths petition, and until that is pre-
sented they can do nothing. That is the
way to do away with it, and thus all
controversy over the matter can be
settled at once. Unless the book is
rejected, no good can come of the dis
cussiOn.
