PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT Ni WBERRY, S. C. VICES OF OUR HOME AND SCHOOL EDUCATION. The Prussians have a saying that whatever you wish to have appear in the life of a nation,. you must put into its schools. Will the re public be ennobled, then, by the citizenship of a generation taught in childhood to believe that as soor as children can be taught to go alone on their feet they should be permitted to go alone in their judg ment, their manners, and their principles ? A pleasant aphorism of a German poet. that a wise age rev erences the dreams of its youth, ap pears to frighten parents from set ting up a rule in their own houses. The children are consulted as to what they like, which is well enough; with the important iini tation that a large part of the di vinely appointed business of their fathers and mothers is to teach them what they ought to like. It is reckoned despotic to coerce nature, as if we did not bring into the world in our nature, a great deal which, unless somebody does coerce j, ruins us. Earlier and earlier the reins are tossed on the neck of juve nile inclinations, till that whole pe riod of beautiful and blessed sub jection which Saxon homes once knew as boyhood and girldhood is eaten away by a premature and of fensive self-assertion, and instead of boys and girls, we have only little men and little women. Some fu tile attempts are made, too late, to hire or bribe the virtues which might have been healthily grown under a sturdier nature. Indulgence ends in misery. Sharper cruelty can hardly be done to a child than to leave him to himself in those things in which God ordains the parent to act over him and for him. Whenever we come to be a lawless land, as we certainly shall after four or five lawless generations have grown up in it, this "great country" will be a great grave of true free dom, of manly virtue and a pare peace. Where the young are brought up to obey, not coaxed or supplica ted to obey, in explicit allegiance to a dominion in the family, the foundation is laid for a solid social fabric. From this home legislation the first transfer is to school. The same firm hand of law, strict and merciful, and merciful because it is strict, is meant to take him up there, too, holding him and guiding him. The whole apparatus of edu cation, from top to bottom, fails un less it chastens and molds the mind to orderly methods. Not mare self reliance, but more intellectual hu mility, is now our natioanl want. Orators forget that the reaction from mental tyranny finally achieves its object, and that it is small gain if we escape from the terrors of the single'tyrant only to encounter the terrors of the mob. To create in the scholar a patient,- modest and obedient action of the whole intel leetual nature is a benefit that lasts on in the personal experience and makes an abiding element in char acter, opening the soul to all the light of truth. Of two graduates from college, one carries out a store of things learned, the luggage of his mind. Another carries the secret how to learn, which is the better part of wisdom, and faculties set in the order of the Maker's plan. Which will be the master of his place and the master of other men in the fight of after years, who can doubt ?-Bishop Huntington, in the Forum for October. WHAT BECAME OF PATAGONIA. There used to be a place called Patagonia. It appears on our geog raphies now as "a drear and unin habitable waste, upon which herds of wild horses and cattle graze, that are hunted for their flesh by a few bands of savage Indians of immense stature." I am quoting from a school-book published in 1886, and in common use in this country. The same geography gives similar information about "the Argentine Confederation." It makes the Ar gentines roar with rage to call their country "the Argentine Confedera tion." It would be just as polite and proper to call this the "Confed erate States of A merica." A bitter, bloody war was fought to wipe that name off the map, but our publish ers still insist upon keeping it there. It is not a confederation; it is a Na tion, with a big "N," like ours-one and inseparable, united we stand, divided we fall, and-all that sort of thing-the Argentine Republic. To call it anything else is an insult to the patriots who fought to make it so, andl a reflection upon our own intelligence. Several years ago Patagonia was divided between Chili and the Ar gentine RepublIc, the Ministers from the United States to those two countries doing the carving. Thbe summits of the Cordilleras were fixed as the boundary lines. Chili took the Strait of Magellan and the strip along the Pacific coast between the mountains and the sea, and the Argentine Republic the pampas, the archipelago of Tierra del Fuego being divided between them. Since the partition ranchmen have been pushing southward with great ra pidity, and now the vast territory is practically occupied. There are no more wild cattle or horses there than in Kansas, and the dreary, un inhabited wastes of Patagonia have gone into oblivion with the "Great American Desert." The remnant of a vast tribe of aborigines still oc cupies the interior, but the Indian problem of the Argentine Repulic was solved in a summary way. There was considerable annoyance on the frontier from bands of roving savages, who used to come north in the winter-time, steal cattle, rob, and thbe outposts of civilization were not safe. General Roca, the Sheridan of River Plate, was sent with a brigade of cavalry to the frontier to prevent this sort of thing. East and west across the territory runs the Rio Negro, a awifL. turbid stream like the Mis souri, with high banks. Fifty miles or so from the mountains the The 1 river makes a turn in its course,and ma leaves a narrow pathway through which everything that enters or leaves Patagonia by land must go. Su Across this pass of fifty miles Gen- all-pi eral Roca dug a ditch twelve feet call deep and fifteen feet wide. The indes Indians, to the number of -several grani thousand, were north when the Keer work was done, raiding the settle- the ments. As spring came they turned speci to go southward as usual, in a long know caravan, with their stolen horses nor t and cattle. Roca galloped around cepti their rear, and drove them night when and day before him. When they and reached the ditch they became be- whic wildered, for they could hot cross bree< it. and after a few days of slaughter wher the remnant that survived surrei- was a dered, and were distributed through a chu the army as soldiers, while the wo- we fe men were sent into a semi-slavery able among the ranchmen they had desci robbed. The dead animals and with men were buried together in the the si ditch, and there has been no further of tri annoyance from Indians on the intor frontier. choic The few that reinain seldom come seem northward, but remain around diffel Punta Arenas, the only settlement mear in the Strait, hunting the ostrich of gc and other wild game, trading the crost skins for whiskey, and making the a themselves as wretched as possible. trusi The robes they wear are made of carel the skins of the guanaco, a species sigm of the llama, and the breasts of, To b young ostriches.
