A LECTURE BY MAJ. S. M. PI X G E K. Saperinteudent Public Instruction Be fore tbe Teachrrs Seminary UnU i verslty ot: N. C, Nov.: IS. (Reported for Patriot by W. T. WhiUett) - By special invitation Maj. Finger delivered a lecture before the Teachers' Seminary and ian audi ence composed of the students and villagers, upon, onr public school problem. Dr Battle introduced him in a few very appropriate re marks retering to his labor in be half of tho University in ItfSO The Superintendent begau his talk by noticing that the helping hand of all intelligent .people, is needed in our educational system. The" system of public schools was fixed in our constitution in 1840 under the administration of Gov. Dudley and eyen if it were desir able there is no way of abolishing it except by the masses, hence the importance of a proper study and regard to the importance of our school system. ( ; 'In enterprise and inventive genius our people excel. 45 of the world's railways j are found in the -United States, and everywhere our rapir" growth and prosperity are illustnated. We are tho hap; piest, most prosperous, and most inventive people in the world. The teachers are the true found ers of a republic. We fear there is a decadence of civi liberty, but what and religious can be more natural, if no efforts are made against this! Our teachers should teach the principles of the Decla ration of Independence and etn phasize tho events that gave birth to it. The j speaker referred to the words of wisdom uttered by Wash ington Jeflersou, and others of our early fathers in regard to educa tion. Congress well made the pro vision that J of public laud be ap-' propriated lor usje of the schools. Tbe Superintendent here paid a glowing tribute to the University aud the recommendation 'for its foundation in 1T7C. Showed how the' recommendations of Gov. Tur ner in 1804, of Gov. Stonoih 1809, of Govi Miller in 1815, lof Judge Murphy in 1S1G, &c, all leatLup to the adoption of a system of schools in 1840. These men all ad vauce "national education to per petuate the liberties of the people," and 111 addition tp the words of our most distinguished sires', reasons and ananoly both plead for the highest usefulness possible for the public schools, Those wiio protest agtaiust uni- versal education should lie answer ed in the words of Sir. Wm. Ham ilton. "Those who oppose universal education are iiot worth of an answer." Broa! christian charity! patriotism and both argue for universal education. This idea is largely growing n North Carolina and our public schools are here to Jav.
