Compulsory Education.

One OF our correspondents requests us
10 outline the arguments IN favor o COM
pulsory education. There are two sides
to the question, Democracy revolts at
itsurpation. by the government Of the In
alienabie, God-giycn rights Of the people.
Our most sacred institution outside of
tho church Itself is the family, The faith
er is the head of the family, and 1t Is
his duty and his prcrogative 10 admin
lister family discipline and to exercise af-
sfeetlonate control over his children. In
one sense, therefore, II seems a usurpa-
lion for the government 10 send q police
officer into any household take the chill
dren without the consent Of parents and
march them Off to school
Moreover. compulsory education implies
that schools must be provided at the pub,
lie expense for all children, both white
and colored, and. as the State appropril
ton is NOT sufficient at this time 10 NEE
such demands, the counties would be com
PEELED 10 levy AN additional tax and It II
contended that in come of the poore
counties Of Virginia such u tax would b,
TOO burdensonle 10 be borne.
