Governor Cornell, of New York.
in his message to the incoming
legislature, makes a very strong
point in favor of Legislation to i'm
prove and enlarge the school sys-
tenn of the Empire State. Hs says:
1.Public education is a measure
of public economy, for, as inteIli
gence is the best antidote for vice
and crime, the expenditures for
education will lessen the demands
for charity and correction
That is, we cnt down the taxes
when we educate the children SO as
to enable them to earn money
enough not only to take care of
themselves, but to enrich the Stats
by their surplus earnings. The
discipline and intelligence and obe-
dienee to law---these prime factors
in the character and training of the
children in our public schools, can
not but tend to greatly reduces
taxes.
Let few or none of the young
grow up into paupers or criminals.
The adults may be past help, past
reform, and may need to die--as
they have lived-a burden and
| public tax for you, the taxpayer,
to feed, elothe and house during
their lives. If a few of them could
possibly be saved, the most of
them are hopeless cases, and
socially, are lost. But, the Cry must
be, 1fSave the childrenl Save the
cllildrenw This can he done i'm
most cases. When by the training
and the opportunities given in the
public school you save a child from
Ignorance and brutality; when son
scatter the darkness of the mind
/ by the light of knowledge; when
1 you take the child that might he
come Il plague and a burden, and
make of it no mere criminal, hut
n useful citizen, no mere dead weight
and heavy drag OH all honorable
workers, but q source of income
and means of profit pefpetuallS, as
we'll as a champion of all right arts
and virtues, then you are investing
Your money at the largest rate OF
Interest.
You make better wolkmenin the
factories and shops, better farmers
i'll the fields, better merchants and
mechanics and associates, cooper
ating in all the circles of business.
You make men happier as you en-
large the horizon of their daily
Thoughts during the hours of work
and of leisure; ihappieras you make
their earnings at once larger and
surer, with the power to use them
conscientiously, with good taste,
and with better effect than the mn
lettered ever can, or even desire TO
: do. That is your work as a tax
payer, and work TINT pays.
1T pays NotE it pays Your chr
drep it pays your seliildren's Chill
' drell, for it protects their property;
lit improves society; it decreases
! crime; it increases the virtues of
= citizens, and their sPilitof brother
hood. Pay this tax, fort williow.

taxes many per cent. Or, as Gov.

Doyle nalvely c0nciuueu tine history
of this transaction by observing that
Daniels did not say why he wanted
the ears and feet of, and Doyle did
not ask him the reason. This, how
ever, is easily understood, when it is
stated that hogs are marked upon the
ears, and sometimes remembered by
their feet, and that Daniels was offer
ing Doyle price less than the market
value of the meat. Doyle, proving an
abb, therefore, was released.
The attempt, however, of III. ID.
Courtney, brother of Elisha, to prove
an alb, in swearing that his brother
Elisha and Griffith were at his house
at 9 o'clock that night, being aisproved
by other witnesses, brought matters to
crisis, as when Elisha heard that his
brother was about to be arrested as an
accessory after the fact. he took In
spector Cameron aside, confessed the
whole affair, and proceeding under
guard to near where the robbery was
committed, dug out of the swamp a
bottle in which was S249 Is of the
money.
At the same instant that Elisha
Courtney was making his confession
of the crime, Griffith took Mail Con
tractor Williams aside and confessed
also, and from another part of the
swamp, near the scene of the robbery,
pointed to spot where second bot
tie was unearthed, containing $50.
III. ID. Courtney, on hearing of the
confession of his brother, fled to the
woods to escape arrest.
On Tuesday night the prisoners, in
charge of Mail Contractor Williams,
who is also Deputy United States
Marshal, and guarded by inspector
Cameron, C. NJ. Thompson and S. 0.
| Leblanc, were mounted on horses,
when the ride of thirty-four miles
from Chicot to 0pelousas commenced,
Courtney being handcuffcd, while the
hands of Griffith were tied behind
him. The latter almost worked him.
self loose, however, before he was dis.
covered. His hands were again Sc
cured, and his legs tied together under
the horse.
Even in this position, Griffith al
most loosed himself again, saying
when demonstrated with, that he woulC
rather be killed than taken to prison
AT Opelousas the prisoners wers
turned overto the jailor of the parish
and yesterday morning given in charg'
of Deputy United States Marsha
Curry, by whom they were brought IL
this city, where they arrived last eve
ming and were lodged in the Parisl
Prison.
Y This morning they will have hear
ing before United States Commission
er Lane.
Courtney and Griffith are eac
about twenty-one wears of age. The
are Cousins, and the former was t

or ten days. Courtney is the braves
of the two, but Griffith was the mo-
e FESTIVE under arrest, making ohjectis
to the accommodations provided f,
e him, and complaining that those
: charge of the Jail at 0pelousas did n,
know show to treat gentleman pro

g black sheep of q good family, al
}, Courtney the worst member of his.
