SATURDAY, JULY 27, 1867. The Education of the Freedmen. It may now be pretty safely affirmed that the citizens of African descent in the late Rebel States are hereafter to form a prominent part of the political power of that section of our common country. During all the preliminary stages of the work of reconstruction they are, by acts of Congress, endowed with the full powers and privileges of citizenship. Iu many of the States, by virtue of their own numbers, a3 well as owing to the indifference and apathy of the former ruling class in re gistering themselves for voting, the colored citizens are likely to be in an absolute ma jority. It will be their own fault if, in the constitutions about to be framed under the provisions of the Reconstruction acts, they do not place their enfranchisement upon the most substantial and unassaila ble foundations. We may, therefore, assume it as true that the reconstructed States will commence their new career in the Union With governments giving to the colored men the fullest enjoyment of all. the rights and privileges of citizenship, and very probably in many of them with that class of citizens con stituting the recognized and dominant political power in the State. We have no belief that fheee rights will ever be wrested from them. It could only be done at the expense of a bitter and bloody struggle, whioh every good citizen Would be interested in avoiding. The enfran chisement of the blacks is probably on as sound a foundation as their freedom itself. Neither will be seriously called in question. It is useless to speculate upon the most wonderful train of causes by which this result, 80 unexpected and so little provided for, has been brought about. It is the part of wise statesmanship, as well as of true philanthropy, to take accomplished facts as we find them, and from the aotual situation deduce the duties of the hour. In this view the prompt and speedy education and elevation of the freed men, by all the appliances that ean be brought to bear, becomes the great, pressing, and in dispensable work to be done. No matter how much some good men may have doubted the wisdom of putting the ballot into the negro's hand, now that it has been done, and he has become aud is likely to remain a constituent element in that political entity which we call the State, all must agree that it is of the highest importance that he should wield his new-found powers in obedience to the dictates of intelligence and moral enlightenment, rather than those of ignorance asd prejudice. The education of the negro becomes thus a patriotio as well as a philanthropic duty. Fortunately he is docile, and not only willing but anxious to learn. lie has responded moat encouragingly to the efforts in this direstion that have already been put forth. Wherever the fountains of know ledge have been opened to him in the South, he has rushed to partake of their life-giving waters. We know of nothing more nearly approaching the morally sublime than the avidity with whioh this raoe, just freed from the shackles of slavery, has seized upon such opportunities of education as have been thrown in their way. From the grey-haired sire to the little child, a ooinmon inspiration to seek knowledge seems to have seized them. The educational records and statistics of the Freed xnen's Bureau, and of the various Freedmen's Aid Societies, are full of the highest promise for the elevation of this raoe. But the work that has already been done is only the merest fraction of the great undertaking. Where hundreds of dollars have been contributed, thousands are demanded by the importance and urgency of the enterprise. For our churches it is a missionarry work of the most interesting and promising character. They have not yet displayed a tithe of the zeal in prosecuting it they ought to have done. And just here we may suggest to such of our conservative friends as believe in the ad vantages of education and Christian elevation, if not equal civil and political privileges, for all men, whether they are doing their whole duty by the freedmen f How much are they doing to give to these late slaves the bless ings of light and knowledge ? Is it not a fact that thte great work is being carried forward almost solely by the much stigmatized and abused radicals? We will not press the ques tion, but there is food in it for conscientious conservatives to reflect upon. To all who love our country this subject is one of great importance. The elevation of the masses their education, their Christian! za tion ifl the only sure ground of hope for the perpetuity of our institutions. Permanent popular government is not possible to an igno mt nd morally degraded people. In some Of our great cities we are already beholding the experiment of self-government a confessed failure. The multiplication oi uuuu eMuipws, .a fhuir xtensiou to wider aisinca ui ouuu trv would soon involve the whole grand effort 7.. tp have no faith in repressive licies Xhe masses must be elevated-that I our only Ration. We have now the oppor .Inline this desirable end so far as " he freedmen, who constitute nearly one-half of the whole Southern popumuuu, d Te neglect to do so would be to incur rrTsponsibiUty for possible results whioh none ofuswouucwetocoutempute. A. II. A. 1H.-LL.D. Tdb design of the establishment of "honorary degrees" was, unless we are greatly mistaken in our views, to reward talent and education by allowing it an affix of which it could be proud. It was intended to serve in the ranks of the veterans of learning the same end as the military decorations in the profession of arms. What the Viotoria Cross or the Cross of Honor is to the soldier, so should a degree be to the scholar something of which he should be justly proud, and which would act as a guarantee for him among strangers that he was a gentleman, worthy, educated, and fitted by superior ability for any ordinary trust. But in America the efforts of our col leges to reward their graduates have over stepped the end designed by the founders of the system, and have effectually nullified the good which might otherwise have been accomplished. The harvest of A. B.'s which Is yearly reaped by stupid mediocrity has done away with any desire on the part of the more worthy to secure such a degree. When we see the ignorant and scholarly youth both enti tled to the same honors, we soon lose all re spect for this degree, and energy and ambition disappear so far as it is ooncerned. An indis criminate bestowal of a prize on all who ask for it, so that a desire is sufficient guarantee that it may be attained, does away with Jail wish on the part of the really meritorious to secure what would otherwise be valuable. It is not so in Great Britain. There the M. A. is a proof that the man entitled to attaoh it to his name is a scholar of no ordinary merit. Men of national reputation do not despise to affix It, aud it is esteemed an honor by all on whom it is bestowed. Very different, however, is it in our own land. The graduate of any college, and of some schools, upon receiving a diploma, and before he has had an opportunity to display any of his abilities, is dubbed an A. B. If his life is spared for either three or five years, and he desires to Invest five dollars, he can become an A. M. This cheap honor is so little valued, that there are few who have been an A. B. for five years who appreciate the supe rior degree sufficiently to invest the necessary greenback. There can, under such an ar rangement, be no pride in bearing the title. It ia the reward of long life, of having for five years survived graduation, and the sheep skin is little better than a proof that he has attained a certain age. We would have this matter reformed. We would have a degree conferred only when it will honor the recipient, and make him reflect credit on the degree. The third degree, however, is one which has not yet degenerated into an empty honor. When a college confers the rank of LL. D. on any one, it answers the legitimate object of the creation of the rank. It does him an honor and gives him just cause for pride. There are in America but few who are entitled to these letters, and this fact is due, we think, not so much to the discretion of the colleges as to the fact that but few of them are entitled to confer the degree. We believe that there are but five constituted in the United States which are authorized to bestow it. The result is that an ambition similar to that whioh exists in France to become a member of the Academy is found among our men of ability. If. to some extent, this same ambition oould be dif fused so as to apply to the minor degrees, much good would be accomplished, and the system redeemed from the just ridicule to which it is now subjected. The holding of a Bachelor or Master of Arts degree, gives really no better cause for pride than "Dr. Pangloss" had when he announced hi3 titles of "LL. D." and "A. S. S." Address of the State Committee. We hardly need call the attention of our read ers to the very able and convincing address of the Republican State Central Committee, to be found in our columns to-day. It sets forth the real issues of the judioial campaign in a manner to command the attention of every Republican. The record of Judge Sharswood, Lis party affiliations and his political senti ments, are placed in their true light before the people. We commend this excellent address to the careful attention of our readers. Tennessee As the day of eleotion in Ten nessee approaches the excitement increases, and we have almost daily accounts of riot and bloodshed. The Rebels are making a despe rate effort to recover their lost ground in that State. In their way stands the heroio old veteran, Governor Brownlow, who appreciates the magnitude of the contest, and who is de termined that the laws shall be faithfully exe cuted. That he will be re-elected we have not a doubt. And when the contest has been finally settled, we shall hear of no more trou bles in Tennessee. It will be as quiet and prosperous as Missouri is to-day under the administration of Governor Fletcher, against whom as great conservative outory was made last year as is now raised against Brownlow. It is the loss of political power that so enrages the disloyal elements in Tennessee. To keep it they are ready to plunge the State into all manner of disorder. After the election is over they will be quiet enough. ! Tub Indus Commission, under the recent act of Congress, is now made up by the appoint ment of Lieutenant-General Sherman and Brigadier-Generals Ilarney and Terry by the President, the other Commissioners via., N. G. Taylor, John B. Henderson, S. F. Tappan. and John B. Sanborn having been named in the bill itself. The Commission will assem ble in St. Louis on the 1st of August, and immediately proceed to business. If the pro visions of the act for locating the Indians on reservations can be carried out. we shall have ! some hope of seeing our Indian rlifllmiUiaa permanently seuiea. Thb Burr att Trial seems to have at last oome to an end, as far as the ' taking of evidence Is concerned, except that the defense wish to call a few more witnesses to sustain the character of "Dr." BisseU, who appears to have divided his time, in days gone by, be tween professional duties and the keeping of a "saloon." This is the man who swears quite positively to seeing Surratt in the Brainerd House at Elmtra on the day of the assassination. Tn Papal Territory. -Referring to the ex isting condition of affairs In the Ecclesiastical 9tate., the New York Tribune says: "As there Is no longer doubt that the party or action, under the leadership of Garibaldi aud Mazzlnl, will soon make a movement against Rome, the Italian Prime Minister, Bsron RaUzzi, has offered to garrison the city of Rome with notional troops, to protect It from the threat, ened attack. It is doubtful whether the small Papal army will alone be able to sup. press a revolutionary movement, as Gari baldi can undoubtedly collect a largo force of volunteers. According to the Franco-Italian Convention of September 15, 1864, the Italian Government is bound neither to attack the Papal territory nor to allow an attack from abroad. But bo provision is made for the out break of insurrection among the people of the Ecclesiastical States. Should the Papal Gov ernment decline the proffered aid, and the In surrection break out first within the Papal ter ritory, the Italian Government may use this as a pretext to remain neutral. In Rome it is feared that if au Italian garrison is once ad mitted it will afterwards bo difficult to Ret rid of it; and it is felt, moreover, that France and the other Catholic powers will never permit the total overthrow of the Pope's temporal throne." . Thb Removal op General Subridan. Ru mors pointing to the reaioval of this popular officer having been revived, the New York Tribune of this morning remarks: "The Pre sident, it is said, will certainly relieve Sheridan, but none of the other district commanders. Mr. Johni-on ls as foolish as he is obstinite. He has no enemy In the world whom he ought to dread as much as himself. " A special despatch to the New York Timet says: "It is stated to-night, in Administration circles, that General Thomas has consented to relieve General Sheridan after the elections have been held in Tennessee, which take place next month. The statement must not be ac cepted ns authoritative, as it Ib well known that General Thomas has indorsed Sheridan's course, and it is lair to presume that he would not be more acceptable to the President and his friends than little Phil " . "Beating all Crkation." Regarding the sale of lager beer In New York city, the Timet of this morcing says: "We all know that Ameri cans 'beat all creation' in everything they under take. We should judge, from somewhat exten sive observations in this city, that we are now beating all the world, including Germany, Bava ria, and Munich, In the consumption of lager beer. It ls sold, we believe, in something liJf e 3000 places in town, and the lager beer brewers say that their trade this summer is tremendous; it is drank wholesale and retail by Americans as well as by Teutons, ana we understand that the contest as to which of these people can drink most ls sometimes close and exciting. We ure sorry to bear that a great deal of the lager now sold is shockingly bad. A Man Snoot his Wife. On Saturday, July 13, a Mr. Knapp, formerly keeper of the ''Lake House," at Marti Hill, In itiis county, but more recently keeper of a pub lic bouse in Exeter, returned to his residence In Mars Hill, where he met his wife, who bad re mained to take eare of her aged and Infirm Enrents. He met ber in the road, and requested er to go Into the bouse with him, which she refused to do, when be seized her by the hand, drew a loaded revolver, and discharged four balls at her, three of which took effect one ia ber breast, one In ber left arm, the third grazing ber check. She was then left by her brutal husband to be taken care of by the neighbors who witnessed the affair. Dr. Parker, of Fort Fairfield, was called, who extracted the ball from her arm, and has hopes of ber recovery. Tbe ball In ber breast could not be removed without endangering her life. Knapp made no attempt to escape, appearing quite uucoucerued, and was taken to Houlton JalL .Aroorfoo; Maine) Pioneer, Chastising the Abyaslnlana. Dr. Beke, the African traveller, in a letter to tbe 'lime), supports the proposal to declare war against Abyssinia. His opinion ls that such a war would be best carried on by availing our selves of the assistance of some one of the In surgent chiefs. He recommends Waag Shunt (Jobazye. This prince ls descended from an ancient line of Abyssinian sovereigns, and la tbe actual ruler of that portion of Abyssinia which lies nearest to the Massowab. Dr. Bene sends a memoir on the claims of Waag Shum, which he transmitted to a person of high rank In England In April, 1868. Blnoe his return from tbe country the changes have been ail in favor of tbe Insurgents. Theodore is regarded as a usurper; nts army nas Deen reuuoeu to a row thousand men, while tbe territory now left to btm 1b little more than that occupied by his Boldlers. Billiards aa a Military Pastime. Tbe gentlemen of tbe British array may be less liberally paid by ber Majesty's Go ver anient than ours are by the republic, but, en revanche, a maternal generosity ls displayed ia providing for their comlort and amusement. TheGoveru ment has recently determined to furnish the various barracks throughout the colonies with billiard tableB for the officers' entertainment. To this end three haudred thousand dollars In gold have been voted by Parliament. Whatever lack of military knowledge the English system of bought ccrm missions may create among British -subalterns, there will hereafter be no want of opportunity for these geutlemen to acquire a hlith degree of skill lu the "noble game" of billiards, and this dexterity will doubtless be turned to prontable account lu making up the deficiency In their profes sional incomes. Our "champions" will have to look to their laurels. An Inventor In Luck. The Pall Mall Gazette says: "A golden age l)Hs suddenly dawned for inventors, a class hitherto supposed to have been accommo dated with 'monkey's allowance' at the War Olllce aud the Admiralty. It ls to day an nounced In the 'Military and Naval Intelli gence' of the 'JHmet that 'Mr. Fraser, C. K., the deputy assistant superintendent of ordnance, who baa so successfully Introduced the sub ject of cheap construction, is to receive, bv order of fc-ir John Faklngton, the sum of 5000, as a first Instalment, In recognition of the advan tapes which have accrued, from his Invention; and that 10,000 ls to be paid to Major Palliser, 7th (Queen's Own) Huusurs, with a second in stalment ol 5000, to be paid next year, as an encouragement and stimulus to promote the continuance of that officer's einluent services, which have, so far as regarded the economy and efficiency of bis chill system, produced such valuable results.' " . Tbe Parts Mouctary Conference. ! The International Monetary Conference that baa been sitting at Farls for a fortutght has decided, It ls reported, on a series of resolutions with the view ot establishing a uniform mone tary system throughout Europe and tbe United blutes of America. The standard, In accordance with modern Butenttflo lights, ls of the single, not of the double character the metal chosen being gold; and the monetary uniformity ls to be based on the Frenoh system a decision to which the Conference was doubtless impelled by the fact that on that plan the monetary sys tems of Italy, Hwltzerlaud, and itolglum have already been r-eUbliUea. ..." ; Almost an "Affair of Honor." t A ',uo1 between E. Uarkndale, editor of the Jackson (Miss.) Cfarion, and Colonel K. M. Yer ger, editor of the Herald a d MwUsipUm, of the ame city, has been avoided by the Interpol Mon of Governor Humphreys and other friends. 1 he editor of the Herald called the editor of tne ClarUn a "radical," because be advocated re construction under the pbia of Congress. Mr. Harksdnle Btlguiatlzed this lu language which would "admit of tint one construction." Mr. erger demanded "immediate satisfaction." 1 hen Governor Humphreys, etc, stepped In, end the matter ws mutually referred to Wiley f ,,r,r, ex-member of Congress, and William II. Taylor, w ho reported "that Colonel Yerger chould publicly dlsnvow any intention to trn rute to Mr. Karksdale the designs, feelings, or principles of the parly known as the radioU party, or class him as a member thereof, and, upon his doing so, that Mr. Ihvksdale publicly withdraw the article In the Clarion of the 11th Instant," Fifty persons say they first collared Bere zowskl.
