In another paragraph in the same

and the vague and ambiguous teach.
inps of the authors he has read, more
from curic sity than anything else, he
Ia disposed to regard the cortrol of pub
lie .ffairs as q business to be en-
gagged in by q class, and that claes
only to be fitted for its exer.
cise. He may have ambitions In the
direction of public life, but If he has,
he seeks pablo life al q means of per
sonal qualification or emolument only
and il ne chooses another sphere of
action, he eschews politics entirely,
and votes for his party as blindly and
ignorantly as the foreigner in New
York fraudulently n%aturalized used to
vote on his arrival In this country.
That there Ia q for all this
Misrepresentation with regard to the
duty of q citizen Is evident, and
that 1t is to be found in
faulty system of education, Is
to my mind perfectly certain.
To the remedy. The difficulty will
be found In the idea Of the
necessary qualifications for an edu.
Gator of our youth and q mistaken
estimate tf the relative Importance Of
classical and ornamental accomplish.
ments and historical and economical
knowledge al requirements. 1t is
matter of history that the study OF
Irish history and literature, re.
vived In 1s48 through the efforts of
far.seeing Irish patriots, fas made the
intelligent agitation of the past fow
years possible and beneficial and it is
from the early history of our own
country that a full knowledge, not
only of the martial glorier, but civic
triumphs Of the patriot fathers, may
Oe gained and their thoughts and &C
tions taken together be made to give
us an understanding of their Interior
objects and ground theories. The
government of the United States to-
day is no more like what an Adams,
q Franklin or any Of their cotempor.
aries proposed than 1t Is like that Of
China. Let the youth of this genera
tlon once comprehend this fact, and
when they come to take our places
they will find means to effect reforms.
Supplement the grand and eloquent
Fourth Of July Grafton by a cores
p%ondingly patriotic course of instruc.
ton In the schools. Let every youth
who has advanced to thefourth reader
have placed in his hands that glorious
series of Farmers Letters" which,
published just before the revolution,
made that revolution possible because
everyone In New England the econo-
mic theories they set forth, and not
only that, but let the teacher under.
stand what he processes to teach, let
the ideas be promulgA ted and discuss
daily, that we're the staple thought of
the men who made the Fourth of
July possible, and We should have less
ignorant voting, and, per consequence,
lees bungling and hideously corrupt
legislation. The great science Of
political economy must be taught to
the citizens of this country, and, ow-
ing to present conditions, 1t must be
taught in the public schools.
This would, of course, necessitate
the employment In many instances of
q different class of talent as instruc.
tors, but would secure a system Of
education instead of what is now,
from a practical stanpoint, In many
case a mere mockery. 1t is high

DEFECTS OF OUR PUBLIC

h the Editor OF IHH BEH.
In these times Of abuses which call
for reform, and as o means to that end
for serious study and agitation, there
is a question which constantly suggests
itself to the philanthropists and pa.
triot: 1t is this, what Is lacking in our
system of educstion2 We have the
most excellent form of government
known to man, comprising the most
perfect appliances for obtaining the
fullest expression of the will If the
people, In all that pertains to the vary.
ing political and financial relations of
the different localities and interests.
We have as a chsrac t~eristic institu.
ton the public schools, which Is sup
posed to be the bulwark of our
freedom, by eason Of It's Ca
pscity for diffusing knowledge.
We pciut to it with pride as the
nursery of statesmen and financiers,
yet, II. we examine a graduate frcm
one of u high schools, with a view
to his eligibility to the position of a
leader of the people, or a guide of
public thought We shall find him wo.
FULLY lacking in appreciation Of the
real objects Of government or of the
real wants cf society that government
is intended to subserve, and the idea
that patriotism Ia an everyday virtue,
and real business ability a requisite OF
good stateAmanship is something that
his education has failed to suggest TO
him.
On the contrary, the mind of such
a n is cast In the mould of so called
advanced thought of the degenerate
present American tendencies. He has
certain loose sud half formed notions
concerning tariff and free trade, civil
service reform, or government control
OF corporations and the ike, but, from
the very nature Of his surrounding.

Investigation into the matter con.
vinces Us that one of the most equita'

In operation by the Mercantile Loan,
Trust and improvement company Of
this city. by investing In shares in
this institution, which Is backed by
some of our best and most reliable
business men, it becomes possible and
comparatively easy for a man Of mod
crate means to secure a comfortable
home for himself and family. In TAX
ing q certain number of shares, at q

years a man can own q house
Of his own for about the sans as
he pays monthly for rent. We
believe the Mercantile Loan and Trust
company, by organizing and opening
up for business, having filled d long

plans and system of loans will bear
