The reoent admission to the Union of six states in the far West empha sizes the fact ot the immense area of ot our country; and when it is remem bered, says the Boston Advertiser, that the great region out of which these and so many other states have been carved was bought from Louisiana at one stroke for $16,000,000, the magnitude of the transaction and comparatively trifling ooet of this territory are equal ly striking. “Less than two cents for each 100 acres of land conveyed,” is the statement of L. E. Munson, in a leading historical article on “The Lou isiana Purchase,” in the New Eng lander for August Truly may we say that Louisiana ooet us next to noth ing. The exceedingly interesting fact is made prominent in the article to which we have referred that France had only a nominal poeeeesion of Lou isiana at the time Napoleon sold it uuder treaty to this country. Spain bad just previously ceded back this territory to France by secret treaty of October 1, 1800, but the Spanish tiag still floated in New Orleans and gen erally throughout the settlements of Louisiana, and commercial righto were denied the United States in New Or leans by Spanish authorities for two years after this secret treaty. Presi dent Jefferson had, however, learned of the treaty, and it was for tbe pur pose of securing commercial privileges, not for the purpose of negotiating for the purchase of Louisiana, that James Munroe was appointed special minister to France. Everything favored the Uuited States at this time, it will be remembered; France needed money, not only, but England had twenty warships in tbe Gulf of Mexico waiting for the signal to move up tbe Missis sippi and seize Louisiana. Napoleon was not in position to defend hia American possessions, and, seeing that be was bound to lose them if be did not sell them, really played a brilliant part in turning them over to the United States for an amount large in those days, and which enabled him to pre pare more suitably for the final strug gle with England. It is of interest to note that Spain actually gave over tbe province of Louisiana to Franoe only twenty days before Franoe formally re linquished tbe province to the United States. It is a little difficult to exact ly prescribe tbe limits of tbe territory included in the purchase, because there was uot a single boundary line given or referred to m the treaty. Lou isiana, as it came to the United States. Wits larger than the thirteen original states. It embraced a territorial area, as Mr. Munson [mints out, 150 times larger than Massachusetts, aud 2’» times as large as New York. In the 87 years since this grand acquisition there have been admitted to the Union from Louisiana twelve great states east of tbe Rocky Mountains, each nearly twice as large as the Empire state, and the the three states of Ore gon, Washington and Idaho, west of the Rockies. Estimating our popula tion at 65,000,000, there would be lees than fifty to tbe square mile if all were locKted in the Louisiana purchase, while by the census of 1880 Massachu setts had 228 to the square mile, and New York 106. It is not to be won dered at that Jefferson’s purchase im pressed itself very favorably upon hie own generation after a very short pe riod of criticism at the extra-constitu tional nature of the treaty. In oui day the purchase of Louisiana appears to be the most important territorial acquisition of tbe kind ever made. Several more states are still to be cre ated out of this territory, and tbe rapid development of tbe states already in existence have made of Louisiana as it was in Napoleon’s day, a populous and prosperous region whose like Jefferson limself doubtless never dreamed of.

Knowledge proceeds from the known to tbe unknown, from tbe simple to the complex, from the ooncrete to the abetract. Tbe mind of a child is lirgdy dependent, dings close to nature, sees facte, feeds on them, not on abstractions. Ite growth is from within, outward, the only true growth by wbiob faculty can be devel oped. This system directly opposes the cramming prooeee. It does not try to hasteu development, or force the mind into premature growth, but allows it to expand gradually and nat urally. It recognizee tbe fact that the infant mind craves knowledge, and ia ready to take in everything and any thing. To reach tbe atm that nature desired, the kindergarten has planned methods of instruction which oonepire to form an atmosphere of growth and are suited to the order and arrange ment of tbe human mind. To per- oeive and to memorize are as natural to a little child aa breathing; but tbe eeaeon for memorizing should Dot lie wasted in trying to develop reason. Each faculty should be permitted to bear fruit in ite season. To suit the child’s teats and age, by thia method, pleasant, useful instruction is pro vided and arranged as to be always new, pleasing nnd attractive, aud so varied as never to tire. One form of instruction develops accuracy, another observation, another invention, etc., thus laying tbe foundation of every industry, of every science and of every I art. The kindergarten aims to devel- i op tbe child on ail sidee by bringing into uae all ite faculties. It teaches toemlxxly perception iu action. Teach ing a child to read, write and cipher , does not reach the whole child. The rest of him is frequently in mischief. The child spirit ia there. It seeks some means to express itself. Here tbe kindergarten comee in with ite mission, viz., to guide and not to hin der, to direct and not to check. “Want of originality, in the highest sense of the word, among men, is principally caused by the hindrances that keep down the early active tendenciee of children, or at least, give them no as- siatanoe.” Restless activity is au at tribute of childhood. Early in life children manifest an eager desire to be doing. Instead of suppressing this activity, the kindergarten encourages it. While fingers and hands are trained to habits of industry, minds are gaining in power of observation, comparison, reflection aud understand ing. Every living thing contains a germ, which must unfold or die. Ite suppression means death. Its bind er ance dwarfs. The bud becomes not a flower without favorable conditions of soil, light, beat aud moisture. Just eo with the hurnau mind. Surrounded by natural, right, pure, loving aud tender influences, consistent character is formed, which is tbe geuuiue out growth of living priuciples. On tbe other hand, the human being who languishes through a loveless child- ho<xl, enjoying none of the conditions essential to true growth, with nothing to minister to the wants of heart, mind or soul, his needs unrequited, the longings of childhood unsatisfied, must not be expected to develop into a generous philanthropist or helpful humanitarian or even a useful moral citizen. Deprivations gnarl the vital germ, Botirs, saddens, distorts tbe child nature aud sends him erring on his erring way, untaught, unfriended aud alone. The moral basis of character is often laid id children before they are ten years of age, which determines their subsequent course in life. Froebel says, “the kindergarten is tbe free re public of childhood, from which every thing dangerous to ite morality is re moved, as ite lack of development re quires. Ubildbtxxl must betaken care of and protected for it can not pro tect iteelf, and the more tender the age, the more it needs guidance, that the body as well as the soul may not be crippled.” We see around us, in onr immediate community, onr chil dren. Life, with all its possibilities, lies before them. Shall they be helped or hindered? They; are waiting their needed inheritance, ready to receive their rightful legacy, which the kin dergarten secures to them, body and mind development, heart culture, soul unfolding and character-building. We have seen that tbe kindergarten ie de voted wholly and completely to hu manity and childhood in humanity, and that it lays the proper elementary foundation of a true education. The children of to-day will beoorne the men aud women of tbe commonwealth. Iu view of this and the foregoing facta, is it not expedient, that we provide for them the manifold advantages which this beneficient institution con fers. The question is of vital impor tance and admits of no delay. Tbe growth and progress of the kin dergarten is apparent from tbe fact that there are at preeent in the United States 521 schools, 1202 teachers and 31,227 pupils. Boston, Philadelphia, New York and Chicago have been the great centers of kindergarten work, from whenoe it has been extended, until it is now firmly established in thirty-two states and in two territor ies. Wherever the system has lieen introduced, superintendents and school committees report favorably on ite success and reoommend ite adoption. The superintendent of schools at Springfield, Mass., in a report od in troducing the kindergarten into the public school says: “Tboee who have studied the system and observed ite results, generally concede the follow ing: That children trained by it are more submissive to school discipline. They are more intelligent, more ex act observers aud grasp ideas more readily than others. They make greater progress in school work, es pecially in arithmetic, drawing, the acienoee and in tbe use of language to express their own ideas. This kind of training, better than any other, leads directly to industrial education.” The citv superintendent of Loe Ange- lee, Cal., reports: “The kindergarten work commenced last year in one school of tbe first grade, has proved encouraging aud satisfaciory.' The president of the board of school com mittee of Baltimore, Md., observes: “Although this method of instruction has recently been introduced into this oountry, yet it has rapidly obtained public favor, and is now regarded by intelligent educators as a valuable auxiliary to the primary schools.” The city superintendent of Trenton, N. J., says: “The proper education of chil dren should include not only tbe im parting of knowledge, but also the de velopment of the faculties. The board became so well ooDvinced of the ad vantage« of tbe kindergarten over the usual primary school studies, that they authorized a trial of it, and the result has been most gratifying." At Portland. OrM tbe board of education has permitted the Portland Free Kin dergarten Association to use a room in one of tbe school buildings, without charge, as the district draws public school money, for those children of four to six yeare of age, who attend the Free Kindergarten.
