-The net profits on a sugar plantation in

-German centralization has gained ano ther
victory on tbe question of tho language to be

-It is almost incredible that in the Massa-.
hneotts Legislature, a few days ago, an
amendment to the liquor bill was offered, pro
riding that any clergyman furnishing ferment?
ed wine at a sacramental communion table
shall bc deemed guilty of keeping a publl:
bari Tho Boston Harald reports this fact.
-Tho Gazette de St. Petersburg states that
a sanguinary conflict has just taken place at
Oronstadt between the seamen and soldiers in
that town; noarlv four thousand men took
part in the fi-c ht, whbh resulted in nix of the
Combatants bsincr . killed and many others
wounded. Several officers were ill-used in at.
tempting to put a stop to the disorder.
-iL'. Benjamin Wood, of New York, is out
with a challenge, as follows : First. That the
.Evening News circulates daily moro copies
than the New York Herald. Second. That it
oiroulates moro than twice the combined cu'ou
l ation of all the other New York evening pa?
pers. Third. That it has a larger circulation
than any other daily in the United States.
Will wager $1000 on each proposition, proceeds
to go to some charity in Now York.
-The Cincinnati Gazette (Radical) is op?
posed to any more test oaths. It says : , '-Ex?
perience has proved that swearing will not
make rebelB loyal nor save a oountry. rt was
supposed that by tradition the American peo?
ple were opposed to test-oaths, but in the ex?
citement of war we haye pushed the oath busi?
ness to extremity. Wc suspect that the whole
result may be summed up in this: that our
-extra oaths excluded only the honorable men
- among the rebels, and admitted the worst,
who took the oath and remained just as they
were before."
-A oorresDondent of the Nev York Tribune
h as visited a dri 1-room used by Cubans in that
ity who are engaged in recruiting for the rev?
olutionary forces. He says: "In reply to
? questions it was stated that there were
probably 1600 Cubans drilling in this oity, in
hirteen different halls, DeBides four or five
hundred in Philadelphia. When they would
s ail, no one seemed to know, as the leaders of
he-enterpriso kept that a eeoret, even from the
aptain, but it was asserted that plenty of am?
munition and Spencer rifles would be forthcom?
ing whenever needed, and that two companies,
- o ne of 60 men and the other of 70, had already
eft."
-A dispatch to the New York Tribune siys:
'The message of President Grant, in regard te
econstruotion in Virginia and Mississippi, was
expected by those familiar with his views.
His policy is believed to be similar to that
teadily urged by the Tribune, viz : Universal
a mnesty and universal suffrage ; and it is cer
ain that bc is strongly opposed to the dis
ranohisement and disqualification clauses
ontained in the Virginia and Mississippi oon
s ti tnt ions. He wishes to see these submitted
eparately, and also the county organization
ystem, so that if they are rejected a working
g overnment may still be promptly organised
qr the two States in accordance with the pol.
oy of the Reconstruction acta of Congress. He
s opposed to all other tests than they propose,
and desires all these questions to be promptly
- a nd peacefully Mettled."
-Bir Edward Cunard, one of the owners of
he Cunard une of steamers, it ia announced,
- d led suddenly of heart disease in New York on
- t ho evening of April 7. He was the son of Sir
B amuel Cunara, who waa td I860 created a bar?
onet of the United Kingdom, for his services
i n establishing the trans-atlantic-steamship
1 i ne. Sir Edward Cunard was born in Halifax,
Nova hootta, in 1816, and married in 1819 the
daughter of Bache MoEvers, a merchant of
New York. His residenoe was on Staten Is
1 and, New York. Lady Cunard died in 1866.
The line of mail steamers with whioh the name
of Cunard is so familiarly coonee :ed, was start?
ed by i he father of Mr. Cunard in 1840, at
whose death, in 1865, Edward inherited both
the title and the business. He had previously
managed all its affaira on this side of the At
1 anti i. The line was started with four veesels
subsidized by the British Government, but so
successful did tho enterprise prove, that from
time to time other lines were also started by
the company, and now they have twenty-five
vessels on the Mediterranean Sea, on the At?
lantic, and elsewhere. The Cnnards, father
and son, preferred safety to speed in their ves?
sels, and heace they always enjoyed the public
confidence, whioh they hold even to this day.
-Under date ot New Orleans, April 8, tho
New York Herald publishes the following: "An

whioh the government, if it desiree to maintain

CHARLESTON.
MONDAY MORNING, APRIL 12, 1869.
Mr. Proadc on Ktlucation.
The address delivered by Mr. J. A.
Froude, the historian, on the oooasion of
his installation as Raotor of the University
of St. Andrew's, Scotland, has attraoted as
muoh attention by the boldness and straight?
forwardness pf its language aa it has com?
manded respect by its dose reasoning and
deep and earnest thought.
Beginning with the broad declaration that
"to make us know our duty and do it, to
"make us upright in aot and true in thought
?and word, is the aim of all instruction
?which deserves the name-tho epitome of
?all purposes for whioh eduoation exists,"
Mr. Froude passes to the question whioh
is on everybody's lips : Whether the sub?
jects to whi?h tho best years of youth and
boyhood oontinue to be given ar? the best
in themselves, whether they should be al?
tered or added to, or if so in what direc?
tions ? The great schools and colleges of
Great Britain aro in tho middle of a revo?
lution, whioh, like most revolutions, means
?disoont?nt with what we have and no clear
?idea of what we would have." And the
oaudea are not far to seek. On tho one
hand, there is the immense multiplication
of the subjects of knowledge; on the other,
the inoreased range of occupations among
whioh the working part of mankind ar?
distributed. We oannot confine onrselvec
to the languages, to the grammar, the logic
and the philosophy whioh satisfied the sev?
enteenth oentury. Yet if we pile on th?
top of these tho histories and the literatun
I of our and other nations, With modern lan
guages and sciences, we accumulate a lo ac
whioh the most ardent and industrious stu
dent cannot oope with. What, then, is th
secret of success ? It is-says Mr. Froude
?that we understand clearly the resul
"which we desire to produoe."
To educate successfully, you should fire
asoertain what you mean by an educate
man. Our anoestors, said Mr. Froude, un
derstood what they meant perfeotly well
They set out with the prinoiple that ever
child born into the world should be taugfa
his duty to God and man. The majority c
people must live by bodily labor; therefor?
every boy was as early as was convenier
set to labor. There was no thought of whs
we call enlarging the mind. A boy wa
taught reading that he might read tho Bibi?
and learn to fear God, and be ashamed an
afraid to do wrong. In both England an
Sootland, by the parish school system, th
ohildren were put in the way of leadin
useful lives if they would be honest. Th
essential thing was that every one who wi
willing to work should be able to mainlai
himself and his family in honor and ind?
pendenoe. In the eduoation of a sohols
the same prinoiple was applied.
There wera two ways of being indepei
dent. If you require much you must pr?
duoe muoh. If you produoe little you mui
require little. Those who added nothin
to the material wealth of the wGrld must I
content to be poor. If rioh in mind, tl
scholar was expeoted to be poor In bod;
and BO deeply was this theory grafted in
English feeling, that when Earls and Duk?
began to frequent the Universities th?
shared the oommon simplicity. The schob
was held in high honor; but his oontribt
tions to the oommon wealth were not appl
oablo in money and were not rewarded wi
money. Neither scholarship nor ocien
Starved under this treatment; more nob
souls have been smothered in luxury thi
were ever killed by hunger. But this o
idea of eduoation was dying away at bo
extremities; the apprenticeship, as a sj
tom of instruotion, was gone, and the di
oiplino of poverty was gone also; and \
have instead what is called enlarged minc
An enormous accumulation of propositio
of all roots and kinds is thrust down si
dents' throats, to be poured into oxen
nors' laps, and this too "when it is noto
"ous that the sole oondition of maki
"progresa in any branch of art or knot
"edge is to leave on ono side overythl
?irrelevant te it, and to throw their un
?tided energy ou the special thing they 1
?in hand."
The old Universities, Mr. Froude p
oeeded to say, are struggling against th
absurdities, and yet their work ia soaro
more satisfactory. A young man who g
to Oxford now learns the same thii
whioh were tsnght two centuries ago; 1
he learns no lesson of poverty along w
it Ia his oourse, he contracts habits
self-indulgenoe and luxury whioh mi
subsequent hardships unendurable. H?
called educated, yet if thrown on his o
resouroes he oannot earn a sixpence
himself. ?'An Oxford education," 1
Froude said, "fits a -jan extremely well
"the trade of gentleman. I do net kr
"for what other trade it does fit him ai
"present constituted." More than
Oxford graduate has boen soon in these 1
/oars breaking stones Upon a road in fl
tr alia. That was all that ho was fount
be fit for when ? brought into eontaot v
the primary realities of things.
In modern sohools we now find the tb
R's, about whioh we are all agreed; ?
Latin and Greek, whioh tho sohools n
keep to while the Universities confine tl
honors to these; ead then a mixed mi
tude of history, physiology, ehrenolt
political economy-"general knowlet
"whioh in my experience mean? gem
"ignorance," stuff arranged te make a el
ai an examination, and geed for noll
else. This cramming ia Uko leadla
stomach with marbles; fer bread giris
stone. Fin?t and foremost a man has to
earn his living. It ia very doubtful whether
?.the honesty of the oountry has b?eu im
"proved by the substitution so generally of
"mental eduoation for industrial, and the
" 'throe R's/ if no industrial training Ima
"gone along with them, are apt, as Miss
"Nightingale observes, to produce a fourth
"R-of rascaldom."
Mr. Froude aooepts with a qualification
the first principle of our forefathers, that
every boy born into the world should be put
in the way of maintaining himself in hon?
est independence. No eduoation which
does not make this its first aim is worth
anything. The Ten Commandments are as
obligatory aa ever? and practical ability
must still be the back bono of the eduoation
of every boy who has to earn his bread by
manual labor. Add knowledge afterward;
.?but let it be knowledge that will lead to the
"doirtg" better each particular work which a boy
"is practicing, and every fraotion of it will
"then be useful to him." Detached facts
on miscellaneous subjects, as they aro
taught at a modern school, are like separ?
ate letters of endless alphabets. But ar?
range your letters inte words, and each
word becomes a thought, a symbol, waking
in the mind an image of a real thing.
Group your words into sentences, and
thought is married to thought and produoes
other thoughts, and what were chipo of
granite become soft bread, wholesome, nu?
tritious and invigorating. Teach boys sub?
jects which they can only remember me?
chanically, and they are taught nothing
whioh it is worth their while to know.
Teaoh them faots and principles whioh they
oan apply and use in the work of their lives,
and if the object be to give our clever work?
ing lads a ohance of rising to become Pres?
idents of the United States or milloinaires,
the ascent into those oonditions will be
easier and healthier than by the paths
whioh the mest keenly-sharpened wits oould
be apt to choose for themselves. And,
passing to the learned professions, the stu?
dent should learn at the University what
will enable him to earn his living as soon
after he leaves it as possible. The eduoa?
tion oould not be oompleted at the Univer?
sity, but the theoretic or scientific ground?
work oould be learned nowhere so well.
Mr. Froude proceeded to say that the prin?
ciple he advocated was of the earth earthy;
but that as the student would not leam
everything, the only reasonable guide ii
such matters was utility. The old saying
Non multa qedmultum was every day becom
ing more pressingly true.
We had a theory at Oxford, said Mr
Froude, that our system, however defeo
live, yet developed in us some especially
human qualities. The training of olergy
men is, if anything, the special objeot o
Oxford teaeMng. There has been thirty
years of unexampled clerical aotivit;
among us; churches have been doubled
theological magasines and newspapers hov
been poured out by hundreds of thousands
while by the side of it there has sprung u
an equally astonishing development ~~c
moral dishonesty. From the great house
in the City of London "to the village gre
"oer, the commercial life of England ha
"been saturated with fraud. So deep ha
"it gone that a strictly honest tradesma
"can hardly hold his ground against OOH
"petition. We hare false weights, fais
"measures, cheating and shoddy ever j
"where. Tet the clergy have seen all thi
"grow up in absolute indifference ; and th
"great question whioh at this moment i
"agitating the Churoh of England, is th
"color of the ecclesiastical petticoat
"Many a hundred sermons have I heard i
"England, many a dissertation on the myi
"tories of the faith, on the divine missie
"of the clergy, on apostolical success!ot
"on bishops and justification, and the th?
"ory of good works and verbal inspiratioi
"and the efficacy of the sacraments ; bi
"never during these thirty wonder f
"years, never one that I can recollect c
"common honesty or those primitive COE
"mandments-Thou shalt not lie and thc
"shalt not steal." If, said Mr. Froud
th? olergy knew as much about Englai
and Scotland as about Greece and Bom
and oould see what was going on aroui
them instead of groping among books
find what men did or thought at Alexandr
or Constantinople, fifteen hundred yes
ago, they would grapple more effective
with the moral pestilence whioh is poiso
ing the air.
Eaoh ohild that is born among us, oo
tinned Mr. Froude, has a right to derna
such teaching as shall enable him to li
with honesty and take such a place
sooiety as belongs to the faculties whioh
Iras brought with him. .Upon the breedi
whioh we give our children, said &
Froude, depends whether England will n
desoend to a seoond plaoe among t
nations, or whether it shall have an era
brighter glory. Following ont this line
thought, Mr. Froude showed what shoi
be the feelings with whioh the Immigrt
should regard his mother oountry, s
what had been tho reward of the oarele
ness with whioh England had colonia
America.
But is there no such thing as pur
intellectual cult ure ? Is not this ear ai
of our own riving, this getting on, al
objeot for human beings io set before thc

If you make literature a trade to live by
you will lake your talents to the most pro?
fitable market, and that will be no assuranoe
that you aro making a noble or even worthy
use of them, ?'lletter a thousand times, if
"your object is to advance your position in
"life, that you should choose some other
"calling of which making money is the
"legitimate aim, and where your success
"will vary as the goodness of your work;
"better for yourselves, for your consoien
"oes, for your own souls, as we used to say,
"and for the. world you live in. Therefore,
"I say, if any of you ohoose this mode of
"spending your existence, ohoose it delib?
erately, with a full knowledge of what you
"are doing. Reconcile yourselves to the
"condition of the old scholars. Make up
"your minds to be poor ; care only for
"what is true, and right, and good. On
"these conditions you may add something
"real to the intellectual stook of minkind,
"and mankind in return may perhaps give
"you bread enough to live upon, though
"bread extremely thinly spread with but
"tcr." After a few remarks on the temp?
tation lying before youcg men either to lend
themselves to what is popular and plausible,
or to quarrel violently with things that they
deem to bo passing away because they have
no basi8*of truth, Dr. Froude oonoluded :
"No one can thrive upon denials ; positive
truth of some-kind is essential as food both for
mind and character. Depend upon it, that in
..jill long established pr?cticos or spiritual for?
mulas there has been some living truth ; and,
if you have not discovered and learnt to respeot
it, you do not yet understand the questions
which you are in a hurry to solve. And. a&rain,
intellectually1 impatient people shoula remem?
ber the rules Of eocial courtesy, whiob forbid
us in private to say things, however true, which
can give pain to others. Theee rules forbid us j
equally in publio to obtruie opinions which
offend those who do not share them. Oar
thoughts and our oonduet are our own. We
may Bay Justly to anyone-'You shall not make
me profess to think true what I believe to be
false; you shall not make me do what I do not
think just but there?>ur natural liberty onds..
Others have as good a right to their opinion as
we have to ours. To any one who holds what
are called advanced views on serious subjects,
I reeommend a patient reticence, and tho re?
flection that after all, ho may possibly be
wrong. Whether we are radicals or conserva?
tives, we require to bo often reminded that
truth or falsehood, justice and in justice, ore no
croat uros of our own belief. We oannot make
true things false, or false things true, by
choosing- to make them so. We cannot vote
right into wrong or wrong into right. Tho
eternal truths and rights of things exist, for?
tunately, independent of our thoughts or
wishes, fixed as mathematics, inherent in the
nature of man and tho world. They are no
moro to be trifled with than gravitation. If we
discover and obey them, it is well with us; but
that is all wa can ao. You oat? no more make
a aooial regulation work woll whioh is not jost
than you can make -water run up lilli. I tell
you, therefore, who take up with plausibilities
not to trust your- waight too fax upon them,
and not to condemn others for having misgiv?
ings which ac tho bottom of your own minds,
if you look BO deep, yon will find that you
share yourselves with them. You who believe
that you have hold of newer and wider truths,
show it aa you may and must show it, unless
you are misled by your own dreams, in leading
wider, simpler and mbler lives. Assert yonr
own freedom if you will, but assert it modestly
and quietly, respecting others as you wish to
bo respected yourselves. Only, and especially,
I would say this-be honest with yourselves,
whatever the temptation ; say nothing to oth?
ers that yon do not think, and play no tricks
with your own minds. Of all the evil spirits
abroad at this hoar in the world, humbug is
the most dangerous.
..Ibla above all,-To your own selves be true,
And lt will follow, as the night the day.
You cannot then be false to any man."
