Editors: Grant me space in your columns for a few remarks on the present system of Common Schools. While the academies, oo 1leges, and other literary institutions in our coun.? a ? i --V m. ..r. try uuunsu, uicae isuguisii. 4.11c poupic j?v?iu be infinitely more interested in them than in all the other schools of the country. It is evident that education oan be made universal only in common schools. It is through them, and them alone, that the great body of the people are to be enlightened. It is through them that the scroll of knowledge is to be unfolded to the mass; or, if it be not unfolded here, their futnre path will be in darkness. Tet these humble seminaries are sadly neglected. They ocme far short of accomplishing what they should. What is the remedy for this evil! I answer, it must be found in a full and free discussion, before the people, of the claims of common schools. The press must be made to speak. I shall endeavor to point out a few of the prevailing evils nnder which our common schools are laboring. The first I Trill notice is, the neglect to thoroughly drill the mind in the elementary studies. Without waiting to train the pupil thoroughly in the most essential elements, he is hurried forward to studies for which he is wholly unprepared; from these, again, so soon as he can imperfectly repeat the prescribed portions of a text-book, he is harried to others equally remote from bis tastes, as preliminary studies; and thus his whole education is made to consist of a hasty and superficial survey of many subjects, whioh are no sooner dismissed than they are forgotten. The want of interest on the part of parents and others who ought to feel the most lively concern for the welfare of onr schools, is an eril which cannot fail to chill the seal of all other persons. This apathy manifests itself in many ways: in the preference whioh is so frequently given to the poorest teachers, provided, only, that they are the cheapest; in permitting children to be irregular in their attendance; in the neglect of parents to visit the school, that they may know whether the teacher understands his duty, and discbarges it; in omittiDg such examination of the children at home, as will animate them to greater diligence, and, at the same time, reveal the true degree of their proficiency; in not having suitable and comfortable school-houses. How many thousands are so situated that they must receive their whole preparation for future life at the common sohools! Yet they too often think -""Siese uncomfortable, wretohed tenements with repugnance; it is a loathsome task for them to attend school. If the story of disease could be told, there would be sad associations about the miserable schoolhouses in which thousands are exposed during the winter season. Will parents, who love their obildren, think of these things, and not only thin]f but act f The support of such schools is money actually toasted. The pupil's comfort snouia De careiuiiy consulted; nis scnooi-nouise should be a place of pleasant resort, connecting pleasant associations with study. The heart should go to school as well as the head. Another evil is the continual changing of teachers; as one retires another enters the school, a stranger to the children and their parents; unacquainted with the disposition and aptitude of the different scholars ; ignorant of the course which was pursued by former teachers; and with the prospect, probably, of retiring, himself, at the end of three or four months, to be succeeded by another in the same blind and erring course. It is evident that the progress of the school must he arrested till he learns his position ; and the children will often spend the whole period of his stay in becoming familiar with his mode of teaching, and in renewing their stadies on a new plan; and, consequently, accomplish but little. The effect on the teacher must be equally bad; this practice, in truth, makes him but little better than a vagrant; he has no ambition to rise; his employment keeps him occupied without improving him; and in most cases he either hastens to leave it, or becomes a useless drone. Our schools suffer much, also, from want of snitable books. Go to many of the schoolhouses and examine the books nsed, and tell us if yon think a man with the tooth ache, would be likely to dream anything much worse! You will find in many, from five, to ten or twelve different kinds of old reading books, some of the authors of which have been dead a hundred years ; books in which there is no more danger of the pupil's comprehending, either the language or the thought, than, there is of his taking a balloon trip to the moon. I will olose by remarking that the importance and responsibility of the office of teacher, have been sadly undervalued. The impression has always been too common, that any person who had been through a school, is qualified to teach ; a natural effect of which has been, that the office of teacher has come to be looked upon by many as a low and unimportant office, and the qualifications for it have been thought of little importance. Fortunately, this state of feeling and opinion is passing away. Men are beginning to see that it is quite important to get suit- ? able persons to take charge of their schools. Everything indicates this change, and show9 that a higher tone, on this subject, is beginning to prevail. LAMBERTIUS. The Scene at the Secession. A letter in the Washington Constitution gives a description of the scene at the secession of the Cotton States from the National Convention. It says: When the final vote on the last clause of the minority report was, announced, and the Chair announced that it was carried, the dropping of a pin might have been heard in the Convention.? Every man, woman and child within the vast hall in which the delegates assembled, seemed aware that a great crisis had arrived, and that events -t a Jn tt*Ktfno flooroof inlaw. were auuui iw uvvui >u <ru>v>. ,.?v. ests of American citizens were involved. From a seat immediately behind the Chairman, I commanded a full view of the hall and galleries.? That great and hitherto tumultuous assemblage seemed awed into silence and intense suspense. The sileDce was broken by Mr. Walker, of Alabama. In a few terse and eloquent remarks he gave his reasons why be and his colleagues could not accept the platform just adopted, in behalf of the people of his state, and why, under these circumstances, the Alabama delegation deemed it their imperative duty to withdraw from the Convention. No sooner had Mr. Walker resumed his seat, having discharged this solemn task, than Mr. Barry, of Mississippi, rose to his feet and read a paper, setting forth the reasons why the delegation of his State had also resolved to withdraw. When the reading of this grave act of secession was finished, the gallant and eloquent Col. Glenn, of Mississippi, in terms of simple eloquence, intense feeling and conscious dignity, which touched the heart of every one of the thousands who beard him, explained why the Mississippi delegation had reluctautly taken so serious a step. Then arose the venerable exGovernor Mouton, of Louisiana, who declared that he and his co-delegates had resolved to withdraw from a Convention which had refused to acknowledge the great fundamental principle of the Democratic party, equality of the States. The respective Chairman of the delegations from South Carolina, Florida, Arkansas and Texas, then announced that they, too, would withdraw, and caused to be inserted in the minutes of the Convention, tbeir several protocols, containing the reasons which impelled them to do so.? There was no swagger, no bluster. There was no threats, no denunciations. The language employed by the representatives of these seven independent sovereignties was as dignified as it was feeling, and as courteous as it was either. As one followed the other in quick succession, one could see the entire crowd quiver as under a heavy blow. Every man seemed to look anxiously at his neighbor as if inquiring what is going to happen next. Down many a manly cheek did I see flow tears of heartfelt sorrow. A pause of a few moments ensued after Arkansas had withdrawn, and people were beginning to resume their composure, when the pure and true-hearted Senator from Delaware, Mr. Bayard, was observed to enter the hall and prooeed rapidly up the central aisle towards the platform. When he uttered the words, "Mr. Chrirman," in a voice not devoid of agitation, although resolute in J i ALa m.?: uTkn tuuu, tmu wueu mo v/uairuiau roo^uuucu, xuo gentleman from Delaware, Mr. Bayard," the Convention again held their breath, not knowing what course that high-minded statesman was going to pursue in so great a crisis. He spoke bnt for a few minutes. His language betrayed the deep emotion which filled his patriotic breast. He represented what were the views and sentiments of his constituents; stated that they accorded with those of the delegations whioh had withdrawn ; that he had been sent by his people to represent them in a great National Democratic Convention, wherein delegates from all the States cf the Union could sit in harmony and equality; and that the Convention no longer possessed that character, he and his oolleague, Mr. Whitley, would withdraw, confident that their action would be sustained at home. I have seldom listened to a more impressive speech. |? When all the seceding delegations had retired, it was impossible to portray the dismay of those by whose insolent and factious conduct that grave event had been occasioned, and wheo a motion to adjourn was made it was readily assented to. Tire Lokg Sought fob, Discovered at Last. ?The discovery of America, in 1492, brought not only wealth and pleasure to the European race, but also, misery, want, pain and suffering.? Venereal diseases were unknown to the "pale face" prior to the return of Columbus. For ?a__ ? t. ? ?? ?- u ? ? ^<i!knta trt fkn i centuries we nave puiu >u >uuum muuis vu mc shrine of dissipation.

As our mind was recalling the no written history of many a fallen yontb, onr attention was called to a new discovery in medicine, the Cherokee Remedy. This like the disease for whioh it is intended, sprang from the "Dusky Children" of the forest. Youth need no longer despair. The angel of hope sounds the glad tidings, and says "b* healed." This "Remedy" for which our most scientific men have labored years in vain, at last has been discovered?a simple syrup, compounded from nature's own laboratory, the forest. Never fails to cure in a few days.? See new advertisement in another column of this paper. Columbia Market. Columbia, May 14, 1860.

Therefore all Lotteries pretending to be drawn in Georgia, after the above date, must be illegal, and a fraud upon the public.
