Taine, in his characterization ot Bunyan, says: "Education draws out and di5ciplines a man; fills him with varied and rational ideas; prevents him from sinking into monomania, or being excited by transport; gives him detcrminate thoughts instead of eccentric Gan cies, pliable opinions for fixed con victious; replaces impetuous i'm, ages by calm reasonings, sudden resolves by results of reflection; furnishes us with the wisdom and and ideas of others; gives us con- science and self-command." What! Is all this true? Yes, education, properly considered, will do this. But how often is the term mis- noma.

The cotton crop in Grant parish is
about fifteen days in advance of its
usual condition at this season of the
year. The plants will average nearly
seven inches in height. and the entire
crop is cleaner and in better condi-
ton than we have seen for years.
The same cheerful outlook applies to
the corn crop, and we verify believe
that corn will be 90 plentiful this fall
that it can be bought at 35c or 4Oc
per bushel.

MONTGOMERY. La. May =. 1875.
Editor Colfar Chronicle
The new order of things in educa-
tional matters in this State, now be-
ing so ubly and successfully inaugu-
rated by our distinguished State SUI
perintendent, il wise move in the
right direction, and will surely be
fruitful of the most beneficial results
in the near future. 1t is evident
now that the time, long looked for,
has arrived, when the paramount in
terests of our system of public edu-
cation shonld be placed in the hands
Of live progressive educators. The
keynote of this healthy change is
sounded in every word uttered by
Mr.. Easton and the scholarly gentle
men who are acting with him in the
institutes being held at different
points throughout the State which
shonld encourage every earnest teach
er to come forward at once and aid
10 the organization of teachers asso-
Citations, to be an auxiliary to the
State Association, as we'll as to afford
opportunity fer exchange of ideas
and the important matter of adopt
ing uniform system of institutions.
This last idea is one of vital import
ance, as every teacher OF any expert
ence we'll knows. and the great need
of such uniform system of instruc-
ton not only entails almost insur-
mountable difficulties upon teachers,
where changes are frequently made
in the management of schools, but it
necessarily imposes very heavy
burden of expense upon the parents
or guardians. 1t should be the duty
of every teacher to earnestly coop
crate with the superintendent and
endeavor to make every school, in
every parish, an adjunct of the State
Normal school. This can be done
only by the active cooperative efforts
of the teachers; and the best means
of aiming ut this much desired OBJ
ject is for all who are interested to
evince their interest by meeting and
mutually understanding each other
We want system of instruction
adopted, which, while thorough, shall
be as practical as possible, aud free
from the old, cumbersome methods.
Our children need practical knowl-
edge nowadays much more than
theoretical = like short hand, they
must get at what is useful by the
shortest possible methods. Let us
hear from all the teachers and we
hope to have the assistance of the
CHRONICLE in this direction.
MuTATo NoMINE.
In response to our correspondent,
We will say that this paper is heartily
in accord with every movement that
tends to the enlightenment of our
people,; and the systematic drilling
of teachers in methods and the use of
standard books we look upon as the
most beneficial move that has ever
been made in the interest of educa-
ton in Louisiana.-ED.
