In an editorial upon the passage Of

Nashville American uses the following
language, which should attract the con
sidcration of all Democrats, and especial
" do we ask its consideration bv our
Convention to meet in Winchester the
9TH of June. Let us operate in behalf
of concession and harmony;
"The Goth of June will determine
whether Tennessee is to be n Republican
State. The Republican leaders have
boldly asserted that it was all fixed and
the State would undoubtedly be carried
by them. So far these Republican
leaders have carried their point. The
whole scheme is based upon the division
which the 6O-6 bill will produce. 1.-THE
great body of either wing of the party
is obstinate when the convention meets,
and no unity of the party can be had,
the State must, of course, be turned
over to the Republicans; and for Ten
nessee now to become n Republican
State, would be to so cripple and dis
hearten the national Democracy as to
assure Republican success in 1884, with
centralized government, for even SUI
pcrticial observer must see, that unless
the Republican party is speedily dis
placed by some party with Democratic
tendencies, Capitalization is n fixed fact
So we come back to the important
question-we emphasize twill not the
intelligent and thinking men who are
acting with the Democratic party in
each county, take the matter in hand,
confer with each other. and hold meet
ings, and send conservative, thinking
men to the convention-men who have
no axes to grind, but who will do what
is best for the State and the party?"

THE COURSE OF STUDY

is extensive, flexible and practical. Students
can pursue what they need, but must do
thoroughly what they attempt. Schools
should fit Tor usefulnefs-fo for citizenship. The
old plan Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and
Senior, with five or six studies for slow and
quick in the same time--does not meet the
demand Of the times. Those schools that I'D
here 10 this plan cannot live. They may
boast their hundreds Of students and grad
uatcs but these in the business of life have
learned that their Alma Mater lacks modern
ideas and does not meet modern necessities.
Hence these representatives fail to send back
patronage, though the institution be begging
pitcously for existence. Such are living wit
nesses that the higher education of the old
colleges is wholly disconn, ctcd from the work
OF life, and that the education received in
them il II total failure. They now see that
the "hghcr education" without the founda
, tions well laid is indeed a "castlc in the air."
They have learned in the "dcar school OF cx-
pcriencc" that to give onc-half or three
fourths OF ones school life to Latin and Greek
is a great educational waste and mistake
they have learned that dead languages are no
longer the foundation OF learning; they have
learned to mIue property the strong and noble
living languages, 20 rich and so full Of the
truths OF science, business, government and
religion, and regrets are constantly heard
from their lips that they spent 30 much OF life
in the dead past to the neglect OF the living
knowledge OF the present. Many sensible
men even doubt the practicabiity Of sending
away to college, so many and so fatal have
been the mistakes of these schools. Often do
we hear it said, "Thc colleges ruin more than
they fit for business life" With the old
scheme of study, the old teacher and his self
conccit, the old classroom methods and their
examining processes, the results cannot be
commensurate with the wants Of our age
cannot be satisfactory.
