"Thc Study wr KnglWU."
Wo have read with muon interest the
able reports introduced in the lute Vir?
ginia Educational Convention. Among
these reports, waa one ou "the study of
English and the modes of its study in
primary, academic and collegiate insti?
tutions." The report states that the
object of education is two-fold-to pro.
pare the young for the ordinary offices of
life, and to train all their faculties for
the most effective, generous and elegant
performunco of every duty, in any sta?
tion in which they may be placed. It is
rightly argued that practical and liberal
education ure not opposed, UH some tire
disposed to think, and it is contended
that they ought, as far us possible, to be
combined. It is suggested that "liberal
education should nevtr be suffered to
impair practical discernment uud energy;
but so much of liberal culture as may be
attainable, should always bu conjoined
with practical training." The report
magnifies the English tongue und quotes
the language of Koch, au able German
writer, who says:
'That the English unites tho power of
'the Gormau with the flexibility of the
Romaco tongues, and appear? perfectly
polished for every species of composition
in verso or prose.' In sonorousness,
s smoothness, aud plasticity, the English
. is inferior to the Greek; in systematic
"regularity und terse penetration, to tho
Latin; in mechanical precision, mid iu
transparency, to tho French; iu softness
aud vocalic melody, to the Italian; in
majestic diguity, to the Spanish; inelas?
ticity und aelf-dependeuce, to tho Ger?
man; but if inferior to each of these lan?
guages in the characteristic excellence of
each, it combines tho merits of all iu a
remarkable degreo with other uud moro
precious merits of its own."
AB to the power and iufluenco exerted
by the English language, tho report
says :
"From tho mouth of the St. Lawrence
and the Newfoundland to the farthest
wastes of Vancouver's Island; from Hud?
son's Bay, aud from 'Oonalaska's shore,'
to the Bio Grande uud the Gulf of Cali?
fornia, our language is spoken, and our
race is spread. If the reveille of tho
English drum encompasses the globe aud
wakes up the morning on every liue of
longitude, the music of the. English
speech attends tho march of the sun,
giving utteruuee to hymns of praise uud
thanksgiving, convoyiug knowledge, in?
structing nations, and putting a broad
girdle around the earth-a boud of com?
munion stronger in its ultimate influ?
ences than the strong'bunds of Orion."
In conclusion, Hie report alludes to
the itnportauco of perfect mastery of oui
language, aud remarks:
"What sparkling attractions are hid
den around the lips of those who, eithet
in private conversation or iu public
harangue, exhibit the beauties of thc
English tongue! The gift of the (urie*
is their's; a ruin of diamonds and rubie.'
oud other jewels drop spontaneously
from their mouths! How wo huug upon
their words! How wo muse over theil
seutences and dream of their phrases uni
images! How readily wo accept theil
conclusions and hasten to embrace theil
couuselsl Bightly do wo so, for porfeci
expression is the fruit of habitually jusl
thought aud habitually upright uni
kindly feeling."
Wo heartily concur with the author o
this able report in the spirit of his sug
gestions. In education, let the "oh
humanities" not bc discarded, but ut tin
same time, let ns pay duo attention tc
thc study of English. It is said of Wat
kins Leigh, of Virginia, that it was hil
boast that he kucw but one luuguugi
only-the English. In this couutry, le
us acquire tho usu of at least our owi
language.-the language of Sidney, nut
Spenser, and Raleigh, and Bacon, ant
Sbakspcaro-let us teach it to our youtl
in all its length, depth, width um
beauty.
From the utterances of the press, i
would seem that Napoleon will have ti
encounter the public opiuiou of tb
world, as well as tho arms of Prussia
The English pross, BO far as heard from
throws the blame for the rupture upoi
him; and tho press of the North, wit]
great unanimity, express the same view?
. The New York Times says that Napoleoi
demands concessions of Prussia which
first-class power cannot make. The Tri
binni says that Napoleon now stund
before the world in the attitude ol" ?t man
who, having first threatened war for in
inadequate cause, finds even that weal
cause taken from him, und then ex
olniuis, "Never mind; I will light any
how." Tho Heraldholds that "Prussi
hus committed no offence, and Frunce i
simply' intolerably arrogant in askin?
Prussia to bind herself for thu future i
the mutter ol' thu Spanish throne." Th
J'osl asserts that "in this war, Napoleoi
represents a past of crime and a futur
of despotism." The Commercial say.
"The arroganco of the French Empcroi
and no justifiable cause, is the ron
ground of these hostilities." And -th i
is the tone of nearly all our exchuuges
But, if Napoleon hus tho heaviest butte
rios, tho best soldiers, and tho most en
durance, ho can perhaps get ou will
public opinion against him.
THE FUTURE OF THE SECTIONS.-The
New York World takes an interesting
out-look ot tbe relations of the several
sections of tbe United States, politically
and economically, within the next de
carle. The prospect, as described, is not
unflattering to the Sootli! We "still
live," and have much to live and strivo
for. Men who love our Southern lund
will not abandon it iu cowardly despair,
with such a vista before it.
Tbe death of M. Prevost-Paradol, is
announced by telegraph this morning,
lie waa tho new French Minister at
Washington, and had only been offi?
cially presented on the 1(5th'. lu his nd
dress to tho President, he said:
"I particularly congratulate myself on
having been selected for this high mis?
sion at, a ti mu when tho traditional friend?
ship of Frauce uud tho United States is
darkened by no cloud.
"This happy state of good feeling,
which is, KO to apeak, tho natural and
necessary situation of these two great
nations, and which has always seemed to
be in uccord as much with their true in?
terests as with the traditions of their his?
tory, renders my tusk uear you au easy
aud at the same time u pleasant oue.
"To cherish, uud thereby to enlarge,
between France and tho Uuited States
those industrial and commercial relations
which sustain uud strengthen political
sympathy, such must now bc the main
object of ray efforts, and if I shall bo
able to contribute thereto, I shall have
faith hilly fulfilled the intentions of ray
journey."
NORTHERN CIVILIZATION AS ILLUSTRA?
TED BX THE FORT?-FIRST CONGRESS.-The
telegrams from Washington inform us
that thu announcement of war between
France aud Prussia, when made in the
Uuited States House of Representatives,
wus received "with demonstration of ap?
plause." It is not our purpose to dilate
on this extraordinary circumstance, and
we refer to it uow, says tho Savannah
Republican, first, to enter our protest, in
the name of Christianity und civilization,
against the disgraceful manifestation j
and, scuuudty, to note the fact that it
was a House in which the Southern peo?
ple had no representatives. To glorify
over a prospect of death aud carnage, ot
devastatiou und human woo, can only bo
the work of a people lost to every moral
sentiment that eunobles humanity. We
wish it to be borne in tuiud that it was,
emphatically and exclusively-, a Northern
rejoicing, and that tho Southern people
hnvo no sympathy, share, or responsi?
bility iu tho mutter. None but brutal
and cowardly natures could exult ut .such
a dreadful consummation, and to thc
radical portion of Congress should be
ascribed all the glory of the shame.

ubie Sjieceh of ill. Thier*.
? During the debate relative to the
? anny, on the 30th ult., iu tho French
i Corps L?gislatif, M. Thiers spoke as
follows:
I beg pardon of tho Chamber for in?
tervening in a discussion in which the
Minister of War hus given ample infor?
mation. I do not come, therefore, to
enlighten the subject, but to fulfill the
duty of a good citizen. I cannot be
impeached by any one, for I have
al ways defended liberties that I deemed
necessary; and recently. I did not fear to
vote with a minority of 35 against u ma?
jority of 2U?. I know bow to persist io
my own opinions; but I say to my honor?
able friends of tho opposition, that they
deceive themselves io this matter. Cer?
tainly the good faith of no ono is ques?
tioned, but I adjuro you not to go astray
on this grave matter. You have doue
me tho lion or of recalling that 1 was
applauded some years agi?, but I was
applauded without being heard. [Laugh?
ter.] We must submit to the conse?
quences of the faults we have commit
ted. I hear it constantly asked, "Why
not expluiu the policy of Europe?" But
that policy is evident,. W: widh foi
peace, because wi to-day would be
universal, entailing frightful calamities.
Guilty in the eyes of civilization, ol
humanity, of history and of Franco,
would bu those who would have the im?
prudence to occasiou it. But why in
peace maintained? It is because you
are, strong. [1res bien ! (res bien !\
I hav-? always attentively observed the
state of Europe, especially since the un?
fortunate events of 1866. Well, wheu
tho Luxembourg question was raised,
Franco was not iu a positiou to makt
herself respectod. I did not always ap?
prove the measun s takeu by Marshal
Neil, but it roust be acknowledged thal
he rendered great services to his coun?
try, ?iud that peace is due to his arma?
ments. If you desire peace, remain
strong. I Tres lien ] Lt is asked, why
not give the example of disarmament i
Here it is necessary to reflect. Itellec
tion is thu base of the question. I heal
it Haul unceasingly, "wu urti on a wai
footing. That ls wrong, wu are not ou ti
war footing, and if a m i n ist er of wai
should speak of disarmament, I would
say to him that hu is imprudent ami
ignorant. But wo are told, disarm um)
you will be imitated. Well ! when eveij
ono in Europe-I should say nearly every
one-.desires peace, why have we DO in?
ventions to disarm? Why 1ms thal
word pronounced three years ago found
no echo? Do you think it is on account
of ill will or idle malice? Not at all.
It is believed that Prussia is on an
extraordinary war footing. It is nc
I moro true of her than of ourselves. But
no account is taken nf tho past. Former
ly Prussia had 10,000,000 of men ut hoi
disposal. How many has shu to-day,
with the treaties of alliance, defeusivt
and offensive, binding on the Southern
Staten? Sho lina over 40,000,000.
Do not deny the changes caused by
the events of 1866. In.place of a federal
Ger m any, orgauized for peace, all-power?
ful for defence, powerless for attack, yon
have a formidable military power. At
its head is a superior man, who is peace?
able to-day, and not disposed to disturb
tho world, but be has 40,000,000 men at
bis control. In the face of this foroe wo
must huvo a new military organization.
There is patriotism on all the benches of
this Chamber; but patriotism is not suf?
ficient. To bo deceived in this matter
would bo worso tbnn to want patriotism.
[Tres bien! Ires bien!] I was in Austria
wheu tho war budget was under discus?
sion. Why did Austria, with a courage?
ous and devoted army, meet with great
reverses? It was because imprudent re?
ductions in tho budget had rendered it
impossible for the Govcrunieut to main?
tain the military force of tho country on
au ample basis, and prepare it for emer?
gencies. [It is true.] Wo must not com?
mit similar blunders. To the faults the
Government has made iu tho past, let ns
uot add the faults of the opposition.
Wo will do so if wo disguiso the necessi?
ties of tho times, if we think that it de?
pends on ns to cause other powers to
disarm. For Prussia to disarm, she
should uot only reduce her owu army,
but break up the Northern Confedera?
tion, und tho treaty with Wurtembnrg,
Bavaria, und other States. Tho Con?
federation and the treaties form her ar?
mament) aud she will not despoil her?
self of them. To speak of disarmament
is to cherish achimera. [Movement. |
All tho world is ou a peace footing, but
Prussia is doubly so. I am for peuce,
but to have peace wo must remain strong.
If you examine closely you will lind that
with the niuo contingents of the present
law you eau scarcely make a sufficient
army. I would prefer the law of 1831,
with seven contingents of 100,000 men,
and I hope it will bo revived, but nuder
tho present circumstances a contingent
of 90,000 is scarcely sufficient. We must
uot cherish illusions; it is ou that ac?
count I adjure every ouo to think of the
gravity of tho situation, aud I beg you
to do your duty' as sound patriots uud
Frenchmen. (Applause.]
lu replying to the comments ou this
speech, M. Thiers said:
You talk about civilization, philoso?
phy, and tho mutual iuterests of trade
uniting peoples to-day. 13ut do you
tl)mk that mankind has changed in three
years? Did philosophy prevent the
Prussian army from marching on Yi
euna? Aud wheu the oceasiou present?
eil itself to change the face of Europe,
did it prevent Prussia from using it? I
do homage to the boldness and courage
of M. de Bismarck, who did not fear,
when the moment came, to fall on Aus?
tria. Ile is to-day pcaceablo, but why?
It was asked awhile ago who owned
South Germany; I answer tho wisest.
Behold why M. de Bismarck is pacific!
If ho showed the same ambition as three
years ago, ho would have all tho South
against him. Since it has become noto?
rious that. Franco uo longer covets the
Rhine, tho natural distinctions which di?
vide Germany aro re-awakening; her pa?
triotism feels assured. Let us then bo
pueilie in order to givn the South to
Prussia. In tho course of the debate M.
Thiers added:
Nothing is more dreadful than to call a
nat ion to arms. Torren Ls of blood are
thus shed, because no wars are more de?
structive and bloody ! lian conflicts be?
tween inexperienced armies. Why did
the American war cost so much blood
and money? Why did it continue live
years? Because it was a war of popula?
tion against population. It would not
have continued ona year if it was be?
tween armies reen haly constituted.
M. Garnier-Pages. Aud Sadowa.
M. Thiers. Why did Sadowa give tin
world an unexampled spectacle? All was
ready at Berlin; it was uot so at Yieuna.
It is thus that empires perish. lu con?
clusion, he said: Do not forget Sadowa.
Lot us not be refused an army, which wo
might have done without before, but
which we cannot do without after Sado?
wa. [Warm approbation on several
benches. J
M. Ollivier declared that peace was
not likely to be disturbed, aud said that
tho plebiscitum rendered negotiation
abroad easy. lu order to render peuce
certain, thero should bo a cordial aud ar?
dent feeling of harmony between tho na?
tion and her sovereign.
WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE STATE
TliKASUItY ?-Notwithstanding the enor?
mous amount raised by tuxatioti out of
tho pockets of tho people, wo under?
stand that 370,000 of tho bonds of the
State, past duo, have been dishonored.
Thc drafts were duly drawn, but caine
back dishonored, thero being neither
funds in the Treasury at Columbia, or to
tho credit of the State in New York.
lt is but a few days ago, when several
other drafts, drawn by the Treasurer of
the State, and countersigned by the
Comptroller-General, upon the financial
agent in New York, were also dishonored,
and suffered to go to protest. What has
become of tho money of the State?

A STRANGE HINT.-The Irish Citizen
says of Burlingame's journey :
The. gatun Was kept lip throughout the
courts ot Europe, and had a tine run un?
til, at St. Petersburg, tho unhappy im?
presario of thu troupe suddenly died,
poisoned, us we believe, by his own Chi?
