In nnr Issue of a cuiilo of weoli agn, wo touched (lightly upon th expediency ami prao t tiotbility of making education to certain ex- tent a aulijcot fur National, melt-ad of cxclus- Ire State, legislation j hut, believing this mill iter to lie (1110 of great moment, whether onr position in tho proniien is onrrect or not, we , propone now to argue the question still further. ' What we say may in itself buvr very little ,, weight, yet it may lipoomo important hy imlii rcing some of nur rentiers to reflect for them " solves npon thin subject, nnd to compiler what ' the Intorests of the government nnd people nro in the premiiici. Our position in briefly thin: that the snlijijot ; of popular education is one moat intimately " and inseparably connected with the .growth aod prosperity of all nations, but most ispo 1 oinlly of nnr o ; that therefore it ought not ; to be left entirely to the control of the several . ' States, but should be madu, as its importune!) I demands, a question of national cono tii, ami , that it i the duly of nnr government to frame Kational School Syiilem, imposing its bur dens and conferring its, benefits equally upon every port of nnr bind. To those who are over zealous for tho reserved right of the 8tate, our proposition may appear somewhat "startling, and It may seem to them that such a scheme would have a tendency to diminish too ' , much the importance of tho Stoles, and to .dangerously centralize the powers of our gov 'eminent. Wo think, however, that such feiirs are entirely groundless, nod arise from a mis. takeu notion as to those peculiarities which constitute Hie excel leiico of our governmental system, rnileed.it would seem that some of our citizens huve an idea that there is a per ; petual and ' irrepressible conflict" between the States nnd tho general government, and they appear to think I lint in thin contest for ' power, victory for tho States is nlwnys a victo ry for tho right. They forget, apparently, , i.tlmt onr Federal system is not a hu m furtui ' tons anlloeathin of parts, hut a perfect, indi visible unit, a literal " c pluribus vnum," nnd that those who founded it did not menu ui con fer unthority indiscriminately upon the sepa rate brunches of government, but intended to Judge all power in appropriate parts of the system, leaving local matter to the Stales, and .those of general inlerc-t and importance to , tho central government. Such is the ease, f however ( Tience. if vt can show that the eon. trol of the educational interests of the .pub lic is not merely local in its nature, nod Unit ' this power cull bo 'inure advantageously exer cised by the Federal government than by I lie States, then undoubtedly it should belong in the former and not to the hitter. It is no valid . objection to say that this would be oniiferriii; ' Dew power upon l:i general government, lor If it belongs there, nnd if that is its appropri ate place, it should bo h it there, whe.her it be uew or not ; it matters linln whether the Stoics or the general government have most power. ' provided only that each has nil the authority which is appropriate to it. Tim stability and , beauty of our syseni depend not upon the pre ponderance of strength in any part, hut upon ; the fitness mid propriety which mark the ns llgnimnt of Ihe different powers to the sepa rate branches of I lie government. A principal reason why, at lenst. ihe generat "(operviiMon and control of educational inter ests should he taken from I he Stales and en ; trusted to tho Federal government, is Ihe fact, - t ulMh w-o liiiilnf Ill OUT mrion utlllUl', llllll, Under the present arrangement, they have been most shamefully neglected in some purls of tlio Union. This truth is so apparent us to hardly need illustration ; and ibis state of things has been a prolific source of misfortune, not merely to Ihe Slates thus derelut in duly, but also tu the entire land- Our late war, ns We said before, was largely due to that miscon ception of Individual nnd State rights nnd du ties which arosu from Ihe prevailing ignorance of the lower classes in innuv purls. Besides, there has on Ibis account nrisen a feeling i f Jealnnsy between those Slates that have given much attention to tho education of their riti lena and those that hum not. Indeed, the energy and imlust y of the New Knghitnl Stales in this direction, instead of tliiiiiilutiug their neighbor to a generous rivalry, has caused them rather to stand aloof, nnd to re 'sent as au inii!t tho diparily in educational matters, which has gradually arisen from llie enterprise of nno section ami llie indolence of ho other. It is lint natural, when we consider Hie liliosyncncii of the gemu linmo. thnt Ihe unlettered yeoiiniti of llio Souili should look npnn the "Yankee schoolmaster" with feelings of envy nnd liaie. rather than that he should be 'animated to emulate his example and tu rink, himself, from the Pierian spring, ., Thus wo see Unit the superior advancement which has been attained in llm cause of edu cation by some of our Slate, is a continual -eye sore lo the remaining portion of tho Union, nnd tembi lo deepen that sectional jenl easy, whioh Is the bane of all confederated governments, nnd which, if not obliterated, will ultimately destroy our national fabric, just as a similar iaue overthrew Ihe confederacy of the Grecian states. b In our opinion, the best if not the only rem edy for the erils ve have iinnied. is tohrinj all the states under a National School l.ow nd tu inaui(iirnt a system which l,nll operate 'With perfect equality upon every part of oor wide spreading Union, Such a course would nndoobtrdly remove the inequality in educa tional matters which exist, among the several -States, and it might also tend to obliterate differences in other respects which ore likely at some future lime to prove dangerous in nnr 'peace. Undoubtedly the general government wonld have the right to pursue such a course, for as w have shown Hie want of system which XHFt in this respect lias alrendr brought 'much evil npon the entire land ; and besides, even if we hud no painful experiences in the .past to guide us, reuum would teach us, as we have before remarked, that the stability of oor "Government, a nf ail others, depend upon 'the spread of kunwb-dge among tho musses of .its cilixent; hence the plan wo have nii gested would be merely a mrasiire of self-defense. It might be regarded as an objection, that a ( National School System, It would be snp. ported hy all the Slates dike, would necessari ly teud to benefit some portions of tho Union t the expense of other portions. We reply that education a we have been considering it jit Dot merely an Individual or Stale advantage, but an important element in nur National wel fare, a measure necessary to the defense of our liberties and in tho stability of oor Invitations. It If a mistaken idea into which i inny Ameri cans hare fallen that Republican governmenla are ui.'t " nnd of uccvrriiy the best, and tlutt we need feel uo uneasiness so long us the people rulo. This doctrine is not only false hut dangerous in the extreme, for it tends to lead us into a sense' of security and to cnuso us to neglect niensnres necessary to our safety. Home per son has asserted with much truth : hat formi of government are only a subject about which fools onntend, and'thnt "what's hestadminis tered is best." So that it is of little conse quence who rules ijs, provided only that we are ruled wisely and well : bad nnd impolitic laws are just as dangerous to liberty ami to the peace of society when made hy tho people as when they are t lie enactments of a lyrntit. Hence the nation has a right to den nnd that every one who has a share in the government, should he fitted both by nuturo and education to perform bis duly well ; and it is its impera tive duty therefore to take care that every citi zen has, and makes use of, the privilege of education. We shall present some additional thoughts npnn this subject to our renders next week. '.."..,"' , THE Sl'FKRAGK Qf rSSTIOV. As an independent journalist, cringing to no party, and fettered hy no pnrlicnhir creed save the broad and comprehensive one of loyal ty to the government, we wish to npprnnoh this all-engrossing tnpio of ' impartial suffrage" with that soberness and gravity which its con sideration assuredly merits, nnd that candor and fearlessness which a true American should neverignnre. These are times when un individ mil should not thoughtlessly echothesentiments of others, or plunge with blind nnd culi nble confidence after parly banners into whatever difficulties they may lend. The problem com mitted to lit ns the legitimate conservators of liberty ha not altogether been solved, nor in fact is there any pathway through the smoke of battle or the crimson fields of war that, can ar rive at any just and final solution. Not that wo would disparage the triumphs of tho brave, or steal one leaf from their sacred laurels : lint there is danger of lining all that blood and sua rifioo have won of trampling the fruits of vie tory unknowingly under foot, nnd gathering fruits for flowers. The swor is sovereign in its sphere, but there are entanglements which cannot, like the knot of Gordinm, he severed by its trenchant edge, nnd among these ia that intricate brobletn of reconstruction which now presents itself uver thu graves of fallen heroes for the solemn adjudication of Ihe American people. May we not hope that they will bring to its oonsidcrali n the same zeal for the per petuation of freedom and the snoie earnest and irresistible Invo of country wilh which Ihey met nnd overcame the panoplied cohorts of treason, flat we do not intend lo discuss liele the ques tion nf reconstruction at large, hut thut partic ular phase nf it which comprehends Ihe enfran chisement of the blacks. It is now probable, since tho radical mind has been reassured by Ihe results nf the recent elections, that impartial suffrage will be made the sine qua non condition precedent to the admission of the Southern Slates, whether they receive or rjeot the proposed constitutional amendment. A few months ago it was neces sary to rend away many a -fnny disguise and delusive subterfuge, before the true nnlinus of the republican pnrty could be arrived at or def initely iindeMood, but now the irt.rrv mas querade is over, and fulse colors nnd chornclei. am laid aside for a season. And whatever honors the people tnny he pleased to g.Hh 'r to themselves for the present aspect of affairs, let them not forget that even truth, (if trctli it is), wns constrained lo he modest, and trnvel incog. illlo lh .is git., f-rm9v nn.) enilliri. Waiving nil question ns to the true slntus of Ihe States lately in insurrection and the le gal impediments thnt stand in the way of such a condition as the one contemplated, let us in quire what is the object of negro suffrnge ? Generosity would dictate llm oonelusiou that there are but few who favor its atlapinn on the grounds nf simple justice to the freedmen, whatever their pretenses. Indeed, we cannni conceive of an individual blessed wilh an av ernge measure nf sunily, whose sympathies are so tropically luxuriant, that he can honestly oommit himself In such a sonriog scheme of indefinite, imprneticnlile philanthropy, since it Is enmbntled alike by the Instincts of the illit erate and philosophy of the sng. And Jet, whilo allowing something for the morbid nnd unhealthy state of minds continually coiicen trnled on the same topic, wo conceive that the real purpose of these blatant reformers is to se cure Ihe perpotftul ascendency of their party by gaining tho support of those whoso rtehts they pretend to champion. There are a few insatiable and discontented place seekers of Ihe llrownlow type, in the South (the ruine who oiiuie lo Ihe Souther,! Unionists convention at Philadelphia, to represent no one hut lliein solve and their personal interests) who have much In expeot from Ihe political disability nf oeituin classes nf whiles and Ihe indiscriminate enfranchisement nf Ihe blacks. In that event by throwing off their natural timidity and and diffidence, and coming forward as the guides and benefactor nf the emancipated nnd enfranchised rnoe, ihey might well aoliei pate some Just recompense for privations grnt nilously undergone in the way of lemurs nnd oflioe. Indeed, Ihey would represent so many petty despots, each surrounded hy a host of black retainers, who, bewildered hy an unmer ited acquisition and clothed with a power Ihey could neither appreciate nor understand, they would bow in meek submission U-neuili ihe ruling rods of Iheir self ciete, lord. Thus it Is thnt arrogant and aspiring spirits may re soualily hope lo vault into power and ntlain the the ends nf their unscrupulous ambition. Again, it is urged that Ihe negro should he armed with the ballot, In secure him against the possible aggressions' of their former mas ter. Now, while it is tine that the, ballot. In the hand of civibied and ciilightom d free men is a sure defence again the usurpation nf tyranny; it Is but a Weak and Ineffective in strument when committed to those who, like the colored population of the South, are quali fied by neither nature nor education to exer cise It with prndeneo and sagacity. With them as with dangerous edge tools entrusted to Ihuughtless and imprudent children, Ihe right nf suffrage is more likely tn prove disastrous than benellolsl, and can he little or no protec tion against the outrage and injustice nf Ihe former (lave holders, provided that such a con tingenoy is probable, whh h it is not. Indeed, were protection an absolute necessity, the gov ernment oould belter afford In provide a body, guard for each individual black, rather Ihnn risk (o dangerous and dublout a project as the out proposed. Ami now as In the qualifications of the ne gro for the position he is about In assume, and the responsibilities thereby incurred. The ad vocates nf antl suffrage have been accused or Omiiy toward the biuck mail and ruvy at his success, li lias been unliced lhat while men willingly recognize Ihe supremacy ul those who hy industry, inherent worlh, or personal prow ess, huve exalted themselves above the general nun' of mankind, they are inclined tn look wilh suspicinn and distrust upon those who no quire such positions through the chance nf ac cident or the caprice of fortune. And so, il any man should entertain some jealousy of the advancement and exultation nf Ihe negro, il will he because he shines with borrowed luster, and ou, hi success in no merit of his own. When certain iiulividua's found it cooveui cut and profitable to preach I lint the Southern system of slavery was a crying sin against the nation, did they not repeatedly vociferate that every means of enlightenment was cruel ly nnd studiously withheld from the benighted black man I Through what period then, of swift and wonderful trnnsilioii have they pass ed to be so soon comp tent to be clothed with the. royal privilege of the ballot? We can conceive of no apprenticeship, through which they have merited this sacred and inestimable right other than the- brut dicing vicissitudes of the battle-field, and have yet to learn that even the most reckless valor is a test of intelligence and mental capacity. Men inuy prate of "loyul negroes." but we distinctly decline to accept the bearing of arms in support of the Union ns tin ei lib-nee of true pal riot ism, much less as nn exponent of iulel lectmil caliber. Notwithstanding the generous laudations of the press, and regarding the pre vious opportunities and present condition of the emancipated people from a re publican stand point, we nro inclined to the opinion that the imaginations of most m tin colored troops never, in their wildest (lights soared uhove the savory precincts of their daily hash. Another argument that has exerted considerable influence in reconciling iinpiiriial suffrage in the minds of some men, is the fact that llie African was brought to nur shores against his iuclinatiun or desire, nnd the sup posed sequence thnt it is now our bonnden I'uly to receive him into full communion ns "a iiiiin and a brother." Hut has this rare exotic suf fered by the transposition ? To answer this fully, we have only tocontrnst his pristine slate ns a grinning, chattering cannibal, wi'h his present condition as nu industrious and coo tented fieednnin. surrounded with the comforts of civilization, tu say nothing of the rcmurka hie felicity of being the worshipful idol of a great and successful party. Again, some men are led into extremities on the suffrnge question ill an attempt lo retrieve the fancied injuries of the black man iuilajs gone by. Hut our article i already sullicieiilly extended, and so wo will defer (ho further cm., sidci alien of litis interesting mid important top ic until next issue. JKFK. DAVIS'S TKIAL.
