SCHOOLS AND THEIR WORKS.



MEN: Washington Irving is credit
cd with saying that ''the progress
and social standing Of any people
may be known by the condition Of
their school house" and we do gen
orally find these institutions hon.
ored in communities that can Law
just claims to social and intellect
ual advancement. We do not say
that the one cannot exist without
the other, but we do say that no
nation has yet been christianized
without first receiving some degree
Of education. The first churches
that were established among the
Greek and Roman colonies Of
Asia Minor, and at Corinth and
Athens among the most highly ed
ucated and refined people then ex-
listing. The same work could have
been done nearer home and among
those more in need of reformation,
but the unlearned were not pre-
pared to receive the moral code
propagatcd by the Apostles. We
have proof OF this in our country.
Missionaries have spent nearly
300 years OF frmtless labor trying
to christianize American Indians.
These people will not, rs & general
thing, received an education, and
it would be no difficult task to
count the christians that have
been made among them within the
last three Centuries. Ifthc church
and schools be dependent, the one
upon the other, these facts do show
that they occupy planes Of similar
elevation.
Our business to night is to speak
Of schools and not of churches; we
only wish 20 show the attitude
OF the social and moral plain upon
which institution oflearning stand.
Much that we wish to say to you
tonight is quite commonplace, but
W. it is not the less true.
Tho Sho would lightly regard
the .gh claim that the cause Of
schools has upon our sympathies,
may best estimate it's worth by
viewing one or two examples. I
knew a man, who by industry and
economy rose from poverty to a
possession that was no mere for
tune: some Of the citizens of this
community, know the circumstan-
ccs better than [ do). Sordid by
the love Of gold, he allowed his
children but few Of the comforts Of
life; they were not as well dressed
as the poorest children in that
neighborhood; instead Of sending
them to Church and Sunday School
in becoming style, as others Of his
means would have done, he allow
ed them to rove about the planta-
tion with the negroes; he gave them
comparatively no learning, and did
nothing to place them in society.
That old man lived to see his

class. whose children cry for bread,
and receive q stone. nas
! :. Good schools exert beneficial
influence not only on individuals
who attend them, but. also upon
the communities in which they are
located. Let us cite an, instance,
well known to you all: Several
years ago Slabtown had one Of the
best schools in this portion Of
country, and although that school
no longer exists, It has loft telling
marks Of its Influence upon the
citizens Of that vicinity. 1t gave
them social and intellectual advan.
tages that placed them far ahead
of other portions Of country desti-
tutc Of schools, and in prosperity,
intelligence and refinement, the in
fluence Of that school is still felt in
various parts Of the country. Such
is the effect wherever good schools
arc established and nurtured.
You citizens have invested here
a good deal of your money; here
abide also the intelligence and
prosperity Of your children. With
out a school here much Of the tai
ent Of this community would have
to 60 uncultivated, for many par
ents cannot afford to send their
children off to other schools and
Colleges. While there is unity,
concord, strength and harmony
among You, pardon us for offering
a few words Of warning. We can
point YOU to institutions more
costly than this, in towns more
populous, which from some cause
have been neglected, and are now
unoccupied, decayed and falling
down. Go to the best citizen in
that place and speak to him about
schools, and he will say there is
no use talking about schools here.
the people will not agree upon any
thing. In such places. those who
have means, send their children
away to school; those who have
not, must raise them up in ignor-
ance. ..''
When we quit this field it is
our ambition to leave you in bet
ter circumstances, if possible, than
when we found you. We will count
it recommendation to point to
your institution, prosperous and
independent, and say, ''we"oncc
taught there;'' but we will never
be proud to point to a building
neglected, deserted, decayed and
falling in,and over whose moulder-
| ing ruins the dark raven of despair
has folded, his wings and croaked
never more, as a. trophy Of our
work. Your. success will be our
glory; your misfortune our sor-
row. .a....l ..-
