SOUTHERN SCHOOL BOOKS.
Pari ef the Debate in the Senate Last
Wednesday
From the Congressional Record, 20th.
era school book which I got from
the library with the imprint of
1879. The honorable Senator from
North Carolina Mr. Vance was
jjood enough , to assure me that any
books of that character belonged to a
past day and had faded out. 1 am very
sure that he would be the last Senator
to make a mistatement.
Mr. Vance. If the Senator, will per
mit me, I assured him I did not know
of the existence of any such literature.
-.. ii a i no Then T tin. Mv informa
tion in reeard to Southern matter! km 4
that particular point is wider than i that
of the honorable Senator from North
Carolina. , ? -A - '; ihji U
Mr. Vance. Does the Senator from
Maine say that he knows the book
which he holds in his hand "is used in
the schools of North Carolina? m ; j
Mr. JJlaine. No ; I do not know that this
particular book has Vet been intro
duced; but I know that at the very
time trie-Senator from North Carolina
was civinz me the assurance that he.
did not know about itjthere" was very i
lively controversy going on miiw iuwu.
of Greenville in his own State between
different members of the board of su
pervisors of schools as to whether this
class of books should be kept in ; and
that was to me a very encouraging
symptom, for it began to be ' the -daWn
of a better day in that respect. But
here is a book published by A. S. Barnes
& Co., of New York, Chicago and New
Orleans, as the imprint shows. They
are a very large firm ; they are, a very
respectable firrri. It is a book called
"The Southern Student's Handbook of
Selections for Reading and Oratory."
edited by John G. James, superintend
ent of the United States military acad
emy at Austin, and is just now -fresh.
from the press. Whether it is publish
ed as a mere amusing thing or whether
it is intended for Southern circulation
the Senator himself will better inform
m than I could inform myself.
Mr. Vance. I have never seen the'
IdooIc before
Mr. Blaine. It is just from the press.
Mr. Vance. I will take a glance at it
as soon as I can. I see it comes from
Chicago. I believe that is not a South
ern city, : f ' ,, , .
Mr.' Blaine! It is published simulta
neously in New York, Chicago and
New Orleans, that is the imprint, 1879.
I suppose New Orleans ranks as a South
ern city-still.
Mr. Vance. Yes, but it is printed in
the North for the purpose of!! meeting
the prejudice of some peopTe iff the
South, to make money out of it,, just
as the Bristish manufacturers used to
manufacture idols to send out to the
Hindoos for sale in the same ship with
the missionaries.
Mr. Blaine. If the Senator will per
mit any such suggestion, I will state
that generally the place where a book
is printed does not tell of its character.
I am quite free to maintain that this is
one of the most remarkable books that
I ever came across within the limited
sphere of my own reading.. It quite
goes beyond this other book about the
heroic conduct of Jefferson Davis and
the bad conduct of the Indiana regi
ment at the battle of Buena Vista.
I think there is
not a person who speaks the English
tongue who has not heard of Thomas
II. Benton and many other distingush
ed men who have adorned the annals
of Missouri. If they had been select
ing something worthy for a reading
book, if they had taken Mr. Benton
Thirty Years' yiew and merely trans
ferred to its pages his magnificent de
scription of the character of Nathaniel
Macon, they would have done more for
the Southern youth than is contained
within the lour hundred pages or: this
volume. ' ' 1 . . . ' P s.f.
Mr. Vance. Will the-Senator allow
me.to ask him if he makes that criticism
as a Senator or as a schoolmaster as to
what would be most conducive to the
instruction of Southern youth J- -
Mr. Blaine. I do not understand the
Senator.. .3X2? ....y-r.TZyiz
Mr. Vance.,- The Senatorjays that if
the author of that book had inserted
certain things, from Benton's Thirty
Years' TWw, he believed.it would con
duce more to the instructions of South
em youth than all it contained. I ask
him if that advice is as a Senator xr as
a schoolmaster.
Mr. Blaine. Either, as you choose to
take it, if it will only lodge in the South
ern mind.
Mr. Vance- Allow me to ask the Sen
ator if he objects to what is in the book
or to what is not in it? .
Mr. Blaine. I object to what is in it ;
and I will come to that.
Mr. Vance. So far we have had noth
ing of the contents of the book except
the : names of some gentlemen from
whom selections have been made.
Mn Blainef If the Senator from NortB
Carolina wilLaccept theiBuggestiottthat
I have the floor and. that J.. have under,
the rules of the Senate the right to speak
as I&hoose myself be" v?ill observe som
law of courtesy which just at this mo
ment he is-not obedient to.
Mr. Vance. I accept the suggestion
with the greatest pleasure in the world,
if the Senator will allow me to remark;
thatl have observed it has been his in
variable habit to interrupt any gentle
man on-me noor ana to yield to any1
Keuueuiau who aesires to interrupt
him.. r
' - Mr. Blaine. Always, - but not to have
a caustic remark made as. to what line
or speecn l shall take; ! I shall select;
mat myseir, with the Senators permis
sion. '
Mr. Vance. Of course I askedSo per
mission. You had been readingthe list
of authors in the book, and- were pro
ceeding to iHieliver the South a lecture
when ' you; had1 read nothing from the
book itself, and I asked if your objec
tion was urged upon what was in it or
wnatTfasmotrln it. "If 1 have TeflecterH
en xne gentleman x am sorry for it,'?,
Mr. Blaine; From the" State of NoTtlf

Mr. Vance, Certainly, sir.
Mr. Blaine. I obserye the book is read

Mr. Vance. I should like to say an
other thing with the Senator's permis-
SiOn-r,-. ,- ' XL ,
-' Thef presidmg onice.. poes the Sena
tor from Maine yield?
Mr. Blaine. Certainly.,
Mr. Vance. The Senator certainly has
too much regard for law and for com-
L mon logic to holdthe people ' of , the
Soutn responsible ror the individual
enterprise of any man, as I certainly
have too much respect for him and his
constituents to hold him and them re
sponsible for the obscene; literature
which is flooded from the presses of the
North, the prosecutions for the circula
tion, of which wo freonentlv sea in the
newspapers. Nothing of that kind has 4
come irom the section or country in
which I have the honor to reside;--nor
would I, as a logical and honest man,
attempt to hold the body of the North
ern people, Northern society, responsi
ble for that. That is individual enter
prise gotten up to make money.
Mr, Blaine. J&uthw wouldthey make
money if they were not sold ? I ask the
honorable Swatou to 'inform; me how
they would make "money if "the books
were not sold?,
&Mr. Vance. They would hot .make
money, as a matter of course, if they
were not sold. The selling of the books
has been prohibited by law. and many
pexsons- whorliave undertaken to circu
late that kind of books have been in
dicted in the courts of the country, and
therefore
Mr. Blaine. I am talking about these
Southern school books. How would
these publishers of books ever make
money unless. the books ewere sold?
Mr. Vance. Of course the owner of
the book could not make any money
unless he sold it. That is taken for
granted. He professes utter ignorance
in relation, to. the book, except what he
sees ' on the facer' of i it tHow does he
know that anybody, privately or other
wise, has ever bought a single solitary
copy of that book? I presume the co
pies which he holds in his hands are
those sent to-the library according to
the act of Congress.
f Mr. Blaine, pit that is the point the
Senat6r ftas, tjwill.exease him.
Mr. Vance4 tbegldare to say further
that , I do riot ineanKor anything that I
hare said here to. condemn me book. I
haye not ajiyoubt inMhel world but
wbafcit iivery good book,Andthat I
win $dr find it when I cometa examjaie
it. The Senator tells me the authoi: Jias
done me the honor to take afffextract
from somef my productions afid pub
lish, iti Laughter.l' That is pritba fa
cie proof that it is a good and respect
able boofetLanghter; J
Blaine. I think the Senator ? Is
qhoted notjas a politician,, btitf as a bot
aniSt Hlover of nattiral 'scenery, or
something pf ..that sorfe-1 think the ex
tracts from tW hoiiof ableSenatorsare

Mr. Vance. I would not praise it first,
but the Senator from Maine was dis
posed to put some curious eonstrnctiMi
on it as against thef etninent of the
UnitedBtesv butltelhs.the AuthVsr
was ferjjvSse and 'judicious ,in, select
ting that which would not dq anybody
any harm who loyexLthes union of the
country. Safars my . impression seems
to be in favor of the author and against

Bishop D. S. Doggett (Southern Meth )
It is an excellent corrective of Indigestion. Have
used It with prompt beneficial results.
Rev. Dr. Mangum, Prof. University of N. C.
I concur with Bishop Doggett in his estimate ef
the Test Pocket Cure.
Rev. E. A. Yates, P. E. N. C. Conference.
It has benefitted me. Send another package.
Rev. Leroy M. Lee, D. D., Meth. Hist'n.
I am never without it at home or abroad. It is
an antidote to Indigestion. Uneasiness after a
meal or purging Is checked and the bowels regula
ted. Its merits are attested by numbers of nigh
character. I have seen a "trted-everrOlng" dyn
peptic of fifteen years relieved by one dose.
Rev. Drs. Jeter, Broaddus, Dickinson (Bap.)
It is endorsed by the direct personal testimony
of men ol mitional fan5e . and of strictness of
speech. It is not loo much to say that no medicine
ever had such support in its favor as a specific.
The word of any .one oi the eminent divines who
underwrite this antidote to dyspepsia has deserved
weight - Their united witness Joined with the ex
perimental use and approval or the preparation by
well-known physicians, removes all doubt. It is.
beyond question, a wonderful therapeutical agent.
Editors Religious Herald, Ya.
Rev. R. L. Dabney, LL. D., Ham. Sid. CoL, Va.
It Is highly esteemed here bv the remlar Medi
cal Faculty and the people. It is excellent for In
digestion and flatulent colic sedative, soporific .
umic, sugnuy apeneni, wiinoui nausea.
