It As presuned that this question will be.answered in the affirmative, be bause these appropriations are made bygy year. We would not withhold :ie appropriation; but. at the same time,. ought not something to be done ror theip66li? and ought not the 'ommon schools to receive annually dlargeraniount-than is now given? The aniount is ihree hundred dollars to ecwh - representative. About thirty .6ven thousand -dollars is the amount bf the: annual appropriation for that bject. and; about twenty-five thou Jand ,dollahr are given to the Col iego, aid 'sonething is now demanded for the .-itadel Academy, and it Is. urgGO hat if the latter is not bupported by -pecuniary aid, all the Anoney herotofore appropriated to thatt object will be of about as much ser ice as if" the money were cast into the ocean'. This is a strong appeal, and it ought to have its influence. The Oullege .and the Citadel Academics have been of benefit to the State, and though only a few, compared with tie great body, of the children of the State, dan -receive the benefits of t hese institntions, yet they ought to be sustained for the good which has already been conferred upon the State, ind ter the prospective benefits of khe future. Yet, 'rhile the State, with a liberal id, dispenses these favors to the hstitutions named, shall no voice be , Jiaisd in-behalf of the great body of 1p children i of the commonwealth? ITave those-children no claims upon No-e State? The State is their political nliother, and shall she make no provis js h for those of her sons who are poor? Sis a settled principle in the theory our government, that its stability kpends on the initoligence of the peo. 164 jlThe only means of difflusing that itelligence necessary to the support ahd afety of our republican institu thins, are those of securing an amount of intormution niad intelligence amongst ~he people so as to cause themi to feel tli im1prtance and duty of sustaining *kur institutions. Bly these mneanis in tlegence-will be poured into the be. 4hgted. intelleets and many a poor t-hild Will-be stimulated to ascend the rjhgged steeps of knowledge, until he feIIhes the portals of the temple o~f science; many a poor child will become an intelligent, ed ucated, and distini guished mani, and stand tiorth as a liright example in his a ge and amongst liii people. To' give nmoney to the cause ofecom mon school education is to bestow it for the purpose of' training and leading (out the human muind--to expand it% piowers and enlighten its darkiiess.
