Superin tendent of schools.

: A very estimable man and one
Swho, irrespective of party predi-
Elections, takes al active. interest in
jpublic matters, makes suggestion
! that the JOURNAL call the attention
kof those who are managing the par
Sty machinery on both sides to the
fact that Platte county should have
candidates for County Superinten-
dent of Schools who shall be above
reproach in any sense as intelligent
gentlemen: men. of learning, not
only, but men of strict integrity and
lof exemplary conduct, fit council
(lors for our teachers. and guides for
the youth who are in attendance on
our schools, and who are apt to copy
the manners and habits of those
placed in authority over them.
The JOURNAL has always consid-
:ered the formation Of character as
above every other work, and in
which nothing that bears upon it,
however trivial it may seem, is to
be lightly regarded. How often has
Iit happened with the maid or lad of
feeble will and limited knowledge
THAT an unclean word or leer has led
them toward perdition, deep and
dark! How many a youth has gone
|estray through the influence and ex-
ample of companions older than
in years and badness!
How true it is that the best days
|of life are often spent in "unlearn-
ling what was learned amiss"-in
correcting the mistakes of early or
later youth! This would not be so
if it ended with the in
|dividual, which it does not, but is
|entailed upon pOsterity, who must
either suffer an untimely death, or,
Through enforced warfare against
|inherited evil inclinations bring
their constitutions back into line
with natures just and inexorable
laws. The formation of character
lis of such infinite Importance that
no incident bearing thereon should
he disregarded. OF what benefit
will your life upon this earth have
been, excepting you have in some
way bettered your own condition
and that of those within your in
huence?
See to it, then, so far as in your
power, that the educational inter-
ests of Platte county for the next
two years, are intrusted to good
man and a scholar.

The Nations Dead.

Our good president is dead. No
smere words can fifty express the
sgrief of the American people over
I the grave of their second martyred
president; the heart of the nation
has been wholly with him since the
,sssassin's bullet struck him on the
I'd of last July, and nothing in all
the history of the country, except
the intense sorrow over the grave of
abraham Lincoln, has so affected all.
Perhaps, in all the qualities that
(go to make the good as well as great
man, none of our presidents equalled
him, but this is not the time and
|plsce,if we had the space or ability,
Ito review his career.
The memory of his worth, of his
patriotism, and of his matchless|
courage and patience during the
seventy mine long days of his suffer
ling, all, all will be treasured in the|
hearts of the people so long as they
shall be capable of sympathy, or bel
|touched with patriotism.
