the lady lini.-lied her filass, but eetni'd in no

Common cbools.
To His Em'U.I.KNtt David S. ltKW
SV .' 1 now proceed to point out what I
conceive to have keen errors iu our man-
agement of the Common School ay-teii. of
the Slate. And !ir-t and prominent among
these was the opinion, at lir-t generally en-
t. Trained, tiiat lilt: Common Schools were
t Inii iti school-, intruded solely for the bene-
lit of w hat is called " the common people. '
Many very Well-iiicaiiing people, aniious
to aid iu the diffusion of know ledge, acted
on this fatal be fief ; and they lound, to the
credit of our population, that good intention
coiniiig iu such a haiie werciio'" .preciat-
cu. W Ao me the cutiunuii pruf y Alan
are unwilling to admit thai ll pf re ignor-
snf, still more compltiln ht to,!- poverty ;
but 8111011..' a population stroiuly imbued
with rciublican feeliug-i. none but the
a'tually infamous were willing to answer to
the appellation of iinninni), as implying in-
ferionty in claims to respectability, moral
worth and political prouiotioti. And if we
send to the CouitiiouSchools, said the people,
we admit this reproach of inferiority on
oor-clves and on our children ; we help to
drive our otl'-ptiur into the fold whem they
are to Le fenced off from the ari-tocracy of
the country, and to receive a mark that is
to ili.-tiii.'ui.-h then, for lile in cuntnun, iu-
lerior people.
With such notions prevailing as to the
mraning of Common Schools, and as to their
object, the utter Uilure of such a -y-triii
would be a source ol gi atillcatioti to the tl ue
republican : il would indicate a feeling 0fi
si 11 -re -pi ct essential to the ex. -tei.ee ot a
government professing to be founded ou the
popular will.
l'ir.-t in importance in a free State i" a
popular character, independent, self-reliant
and virtuou- next and ancillary to thi-, is
the general diffusion of knowledge among
all classes.
While we are fit for freedom we are un
prepared for any sy-tetn of education or re
ligion that pmles-es to build up a wall be
twceii the iiitleretit cla es the community :
that goes ou the a-sutuption that the dif
f. rent social ranks are to be fenced up iu
their accidental po-itioii,the Very rever-e be
ing the object ot all ju-l system-of education
at.il partly so ol the religion ot Je-us Chri-t.
This word itiitiittnn then, and :Jie notion
in regard to it, were a stumbling block to
u- at Iir-t, and came near heing the cau-e
of a total shipwreck ; and to this day there
are many sections where this " rock of of-
fetiee is still doing mi-chief.
Li fore we can hare a p rfect system of
Common Scl uo!.-, this ol noxiou- notion inu-t
be utterly eradicated and we mu-t under-
stand by CuMMnN S iiudls, the u IiikiL ; the
oiuntrit, the irojile s s-'hrniis, the -great Com-
mon I mver-itv of the State ; the word U"i-
moil denoting that it is common to ail, open
to all, and the place where a comii.oii or
ordinary education is to be obtained by all.
The word common i-partly u-ed in a si ti-e
exactly the cppo-ite of tint tir-t put upon it,
and -ti.l undcr-tood in some place- : it im-
p!ie- that the.-eare .ol the schools of a panic-
uUr cla-s, a- well a the fact that they are
pi i mo ri iu their character, and intt tided
for the in-truction of all until prepared to
enter establishment- founded for the ii'n-
provcmeiit of pupil- in .articular sciences
or in the higie r branches of an education.
If so understood and appreciated, what a
ditl'erctit a-,e(t would our Commoti Schools
present I Uur wealthy and intelligent
clas.-es would not Le giving money and ad-
vice in vain ; they would be giv ing w hat is
rquallv important, their tunc and service.
to these school-, and setting examples which
would be more highly appreciated than
friendly words of counsel.
Seii'iing their own children to school, and
appreciating the importance ol good schools
and correct information, they icon', ur '
it tluit the m h'nn'i un mil imiiiiiLi'il : they
would a:t a committee-men, keep a watch-
ful eve on the -choohoue, and take a more
iraetical iutcre.-t iu the success of the sys-
teiu.
Jiut, say many of our intelligent people,
how can I afford to send to school so l adiy
manned .' Permit me toaii-wer this uniier-al
question by another injuiry, viz : win li will
tne school- be under belter control as long
as those who best understand the importance
of good education refu-e an active part in
their management T
Suppose the State annually disburse a
thou-and dollar to each ili-trict for cdua
tioual purpo cs and suppose you act on
the sup position that this is intended only
for the bctielit of tlie grossly ignorant an i
thos oppo.cd to learning, and leave ihe
entire uireetioti of the funds to tli' in. will
we have better Common School-: Will the
mere money make a change give eyes to
the blind, understanding to the looli-ii, an t
di-crelion to tho.-c who denounce ail know-
ledge a u-elcss and dangcrou-? will it
clevate the sl.iudard of teacher-, the e!ec-
tion still being left to tho-e who sign their
mime with a cro.s. Suppo-e the salaiy of
the President ot the I'nitrd State were in-
crea-ed lu one million of dollar-, would it
cau-e the people to make a wi-er choice fcr
the Chief Magistrate than thry have cur
done beloie .' '1 he charai ter of the cimli-
dates for any particular dace will u.'uui.s
depend on the charai ti r ol the tribunal that

thc station or greatiie-is of the salary, the
voters being ignorant, only cnli ting iu the
con.'e-t for the dace, the greater amount
ot bad pas-ioru or evil de-igu.
U then, my intelligent friends I speak
now to ths. educated ami u the friend of
education how can wc expect the State to
advance to us greater sunt-, if we have
placed iu the earth the talent already lent
n..l,i i i.i mil it nut t.i the u-urer.
amlniake it yield it- full return of profit be- throw ing the burden of education on the
fore we can reasonably a-k to be cutru-ted : whole community as a public tax, the .'o-t
with greater repon-ibilitic ! to each individual, exc pt to the very rich,

j claim to be part of thonc interested iu Com-'
i nioti Schools, and if you act ju-tly and dis- ;
erectly you will soon have thiti 's your own'
way. I know neighborhoods where the
committee-men have given the entire con-
trol of the school iu each place to otic man
he guaranteeing a school and a good
teacher for a certain length of time each
year. Each gentleman so situated contri-
bute.i to the publie fund a certain amount
which, according to previous calculation, is
Iim than (he amount it would co-t him to
, educate his children in any other wav ; and
i thus he has the t-ati-faeton ofhmiig his
children intruded at home, save some -
, thing, and beiielits thn whole school district
in which he lives.
I I desired to aid in ecttintr un onf school
, 0f .lii.t sort iu each county in the Stat.-, to
act as an example for other district-; and
, l am gratified to be able to btate that 1 have
, been very successful in several instances,
j The fir-t pi rsou to vvhoiu I made the pro-
' position was to the Chairman of a new county,
j 1 a-ked him to seL'ct for me a di-trict con-
J taitiiu; one, two or three per-otn of means,
j ami having children to educate ; and in-
! formed him that I wi-'ned to make thin pro-
po-itioti, viz : If there should be several
persons, each with otic or more children to
have iii-trncted, I wanted each one to calcu-
late the co-l of edueatin the-e children at
hoarding school- then to agree to contri-
Lute ju-t hull that amount to the Five
j School, on comlitiou the committee would
: allow thetn to Select a teacher, manage the
school, Ac., Ac, they guaranteeing eijual
bem-tit- in the school to all the children of
the di-triet.
It happened that the Chairman in iiue'tion
had the responsibility of edu'-ating several
: young ladies and he had been ca-ting a-
j bout for the most economical plan, lieing
a practical man, and not one of those dis-
po-ed, to u-e a vulgar phrase, to bite off
his uo-e to -i.tte his face, be readily saw the
advantages of the dan, and immediately
iiia'le a propo-iuon to the committee ot his
district. They gave him the control of tin
PT.") more, and for the $l.r)i, and board,
(which he was to furnish,) he got the
prom i -e ot a goo 1 female teacher, utnler-tand
nig Music, Drawing, Ac, .,for i lght months
i iu the year. Uy this operation he will save
1 from S7o to Km n.-r annum : and while he
i sav ing this, inte.v! of al u-iu
mon School b'-cause he furni-1
the Com- 'heir mean
s, for the more happy
benefit of others, half the fund-, he is grate-
ful to it for opening a wav by which his
school ext. . u-e- are dimim-hed one-third at
! least, and those whom he has the care of
instructing arc kept away from the Umpu-
tiotis of di-tant boarding schools.
Another gentlemen, in an extreme ei-t-rn
county, to whom I wrote on this subject, had
aeticipated me; and a- I was afterwards at
his house I found that he had gone over
precisely the grouti I which had occupied my
thought., and was in th
iraetical enjoy-
incut ot the coiielu-ion- at which I had ar-
rived, 'i he public fund for his di-triet
amounted annually to Jill '; and to this he
added f JiiH, never a-kitig v.y one el.-e to
contribute, and boarding free the leacln-r.
Iu return he was allowed to .select the tcach-
er: and he had with hitii a very competent
young man, teaching ten months in the year.
1 he geiitleBi-in in ijii.stion had a uutnbi.r of
small boys to educate ; and but for the Free
School system he would have had to pay
$.'11 I in-tead of ill to g. t a teacher at
Lome, or to have t ipcinled souieSl " iu
the neighboring village, with Lis children
i-x.osed to injurious influence ou every
side.
Now, suppose that in every di-trict where
there are one, two or more families of means,
desiring to educate thi ir i. hild n-n well, this
dan were pur-ued, what would be the re-
suit And in thi- connection I wish it to
be diti"oW- understood that L desire no one
to contribute a much a il would cost hiiu
to cducatu hi- children iu any other way.
Sow, if the intelligent pot tioii of the com-
muiilty would pur-ue tin- dan, or if they
would only send their children to the Com-
mon Schools and take an active .art in their
management, the Schools themselves would
be greatly improved, and the spirit of edu-
cation would spread into that cla- who now
refu-e to send io auy school. Hut my time
will not permit me to pursue this branch of
my subject farther, except to make a few rc-
marks concerning the idea of charity a- as.
sociatcd with the Coinm )ti School-. They
are pn ei-ely such a charity a- the I'niver-
sitv lo.imied on exactly the same principle.
