Friends Of Education Encouraged.
Mr.. BLAIR HOPEFUL OF THE PASSAGE OF HIS
BILL THIS SESSION.

MR.. BLAIR HOPEFUL OF THE PASSAGE OF HIS
BILL THIS SESSION.
The friends of universal education are very
hopeful of passing an educational bill through
Congress this session. Mr.. Blair in the Senate
and Mr.. Willis in the House will press the mat
ter, and both are sanguine of success. The bills
introduced by these gentlemen are different in
many matters of detail, but both provide for
the same amount to be appropriated by Con-
gress for the public free schools in the states,
and If the bills pass the two houses, respec-
lively, their differences can easily be adjusted
Senator Blair says he expects that the commit
tee will report the bin to the Senate soon after
the holidays, and he has no doubt ofits passage
He receives a great many letters and petitions
upon the subject, and says there is an almost
universal demand for Congress to provide for
the establishment of common schools through
out the country. He says that the money Con-
gress thus expended would be returned in the
increased value Of each mans labor, and the in
vestment would be a good one. The increased
industrial value of the people i'm the south
would be equal to $241,727 900 a year if all
the illite rate people should be educated accord
ing to the plan proposed.
