Correspondence Of the Democrat.
HATrlEvlLLE, Conway Co., Aug. 8.
That man will be a benefactor Of
his race Who shall teach us how TO
manage tightly The first years Of .
childs odncatI0n. The mind is the
hearts mouth. Thrast truth into
the child's mind. Al IN the bread Of
life to the child, Il will not stay in his
mind, it will go to bis heart, and the
hunger of the heart will grow BY
what it feeds on. Every first thing
continues forever with the child; the
first color, the FIRST music. the first
flower, paint the foreground Of his
life. There are no more fragrant in
stances Of uncharitable judging, and
no cases in which it inflicts greater
injury, than are often seen IN the
treatment of children by grown per-
sons. A trifling fault Is magnlfied
into grave and deliberately planned
offense. Motives are attributed to
the thoughtless little transgressor,
which could only belong to far
more advanced stage Of mental de
velopment, and not only is gross in
justice done and the keen pain OF it
inflicted, but many times the young
soul is made disengenuous and re-
vengeful by being unfairly suspect
ed and accused Of deceit or revenge.
We need not be afraid u having too
much charity, and safe general rule
Is, when we can find nothing good to
say Of child, to say nothing. There
Is q process OF education constantly
going on in every dwelling which
can make an unspeakable advantage.
and at the same time contribute to
make happy home. TO keep OBJ
iects OF pure and high interest before
the chrildren's minds in natural
and suitable way to have them sup
piled with such books as will occupy
and interest, to talk not 80 much to
them as with them about objects, to
take note Of and encourage any adj
vance they make, and to direct the
flow not OF part, but Of the whole,
OF their life, physical, mental, moral,
without apparent interference or vi
olence, this happy art, to be sought,
prayed for, labored for, under Gods
blessing goes far to make happy
home. The parent holds mystic
key that no other hand can fit to the
wards OF its locks. If the parent
does not do his work, it is forever
undone. So left undone the parent
is guilty and the child wronged, and
wronged irreparably. NJ. P. M.

twas under Republican auspices that
the Supreme Court bench of the United
States was packed for the purpose,
notoriously for reversing decision OF
that Court! And thus Il was that, In
an issue between the interests Of the
money power and those of the people
at large, decision In favor of the latter
was reversed into one in favor of the
former. But the most remarkable fact
In connection with this criminal prostl-
tuition of the Supreme Judiciary of the
land, and this fragrant subversion of
public justice, is the fact that it was
tamely submitted to by an alleged in
telligebt and liberty loving people!
Antedating the above Republican
outrage so long time that many have
forgotten 1t, while generation Of men
nave come upon the stage who never
even heard of it, is another record of
Judicial prostitution for which the Re
publican party is responsible. The Re-
publican Supreme Court of our own
Ohio which, some twenty five years
ago, insulted common sense and OUT
ragged common decency, by the decision
that a white citizen is one in whose
veins there is one drop, or half a drop,
more of white blood than black. In
other words, the decision was that
preponderance of white blood over
black constitutes white citizen? The
distinctions implied by the words octo-
room and quadro0n were thus judicial
~ wiped out and expurgated from our
language. This most remarkable de-
cision was demanded by the interests
