Public Education.

Editor Aeridionsl
This society, in the promotion o1
the purposes Of its creation, has
been endeavorinE to organise ausil
lary societies, reading ,lubs, literary
and library associations, in order to
create nnd fostcr sentiment in IA.
vor OF public education throughout
the State.
1t also, at the last session Of the
Legislature, presented several laws
providing for the better education
of the schooI-aged children Of the
s'a'e, and for obtaining means for
increasing the educational resources
Of eacb parish. These measures
were only partially successful, it has
therefore been deemed wise to push
the work With renewed zeal.
Indulging the hope that complete
success will crown the combined
efforts Of all good citizens interested
in this laudable cause, this society
has engaged the Rev. A. .. Mayo,
Of Boston, Mass, to lecture through
ont the State during February sn :,
March next on the subject Of public
education. This distinguished ed.
ucator, so we'll known throughout
the land. having for years taken The
deepest interest in Southern educa-
ton, is fully worthy of yonr con.
ti'Ience and support. He is person
ally and favorably known to most
Of the mem;'crs of this society, as
well as by many noted personsin
this city.
In this effort we naturally seek
the aid Of the press and trust you
will cooperate in this good work by
publishing editorials oh this subject.
aud do all you can to arouse last
Ing interest in this matter.
Very respectfully,

HoM> Dissensions.

A friend aends us. says the St
| Martin RereiAe. the Clipping pub
liShed below. taken from an old
paper of which, however, he doe,
not f"rni,l, the name, aud esks us i
we do not think therein Is contained
the causes which, to great extent
has tended to prevent that town
from reaching tha. plane which; by
Il little effort. she is justly entitled
to. The article furnishes material
sufficient, we think, for almost any
community to reflect upon:
Nearly every community is more
or less disturbed by internal disscn.
sions. In every case where they
exist the are a clog to progress.
Jealousies and suspicious are Ell.
gendered, chickering's take place.
and heartburninss follow. No mat,
Ter how much public spirit, liberality
and enterprise may exist, they arc
all value!ess where discord reisns.
1t ought to be the business of every
man. and especially of all that aspire
to lead. to do what they can to re.
conciIe differences and to promote
concord and harmonious action.
Show us a town Or a parish split up
into cliques and factions. and we
can safely point you 10 comriunity
in which nothing that IS valuable is
ever accomplished. Show us a town
or parish in which the leading men
in it are at variance, aud We need
to learn nothing more to tell US that
enterprise and progress are not TO
be expected. Everything that would
build up such community langnish
es. But when community is found
where all WORK together, where
kindly feeling prevails, generous
sentiments rule and there is unity
Of purpose and action, there is no
question as to the progress and
prosperity that will follow. Such
community works to common end.
If there are enterprises, great or
small, they are pushed forward to
completion; if there are men in their
midst that are rendering themselves
useful. they are not treated with
suspicion or indifference. but the
best men Of that locality cluster
around them and double and even
quaGruple their influence.
Every town and parish, every city
and county in Louisiana and Texas,
onght to cultivate this spirit Of har-
mony, and work together as one
man. Minor differences can be tol-
Grated, but the variances that arise
ought to be marked BY moderation.
In all grave matters they should
preserve their unity. The town and
parish that does this may look for
good results.
