f /TJie following -preamble and resolutions were
offered: ! , - 1 .
' WhereaSr The perpetuity of our. free institutions,
and our well-being as.memberaof socioty, depend
in a great measure upon their right' training and
the right development of. the powers of .the, mind,
and Inasmuch as the Legislature has made provi
sion for the bdueation of all the children within
her boundaries:,; ' V \
Resolved* That it is the solemn and imperative
duty of all having children and youth under their
care to give'them an. opportunity to’ get such an
ednoation as shall enable them to transact the com
mon business of Hfe,and understand their rights
and'diaties as American oitliens*-' ' . ;
. <Resotitd{ That when patents,and guardians re
fuse or neglect to perform this obvious* duty, they
fihoutd be compelled to its performance by legisla
tive onactment. ; . . ; \
' Jfcso/cw/i'Tfa&tleinales should be educated in tho
sthhe seboids wlth P)ales, and-to the same extent,
t fttr.-ThornfiVof Chester, was notin favor of the
resolutions*iff© ,wm <infevor of . democracy in
schools,'and didnot think any-good could result
from a Tlawsiiohi sawas contemplated. . In some
instances the adoption of thislaw would be equiva
lent to an absolute despotism. -Nothing could.be
galhod at all by ahy law of this character, as it
would inevitably disgust. the. people of the State
with the tommon-schckil system.' ’■ /, ,
Mr, Datiinghmdid hot tuink that ft parenthad a
right to deprive .the child of an .ednoation. The
child.had rights, :.and One. was an ednoation. K
the parent refuses to sustain the',physical condition
of the child..the lawfWill take hold of him. Why,
then, should not the parent he compelled to support
his mental-life? Education- was, a preventive of
vice. We are for,.ednoation; a school is
opened,and a'teacher Children do not
come; 1 - How are vre to'educate-the-youth when
they are hot at school to be educated? If,we do
not make the youth attend, we swindle eltisensout
of education-taxes. It Is’not despotic in the law to
I compel parents to olothe their children, and it is
iquito as just that parents should be compelled 7 to
clothe their mind. ’He was in favor,of liberty; but
not of that liberty whichwould permit the teacher
to refuse an education to a child. When it came
intojtheworid it demanded an education., Educa
,t!on was'as essential, to' the mindas the air wo
breathe to physical existence.
Mr: Me Gaiter thought wo might as well compel
children'to. go to church by a legislative enact
ment as to go to school.lf you want one-third of
the children' to be kept :from school, pass a law
compelling-parents to send them. Ho would not
like totbe Interfered with in his relations to his
children, by any body of men, or any legislative
enactment. *
•Prof. Coburn, bf- Bradford, said we had hoard,
iMt'evening,-from the first judge of the State, tho
assertion mat the, duty of Pennsylvania was to
educate.children.He agreed with his .Honor in
this.i He did not think it was-tyr&nny in the
State to compel an education. There was a neigh
borhood'in-ms county whore the directors had
established ;* school'and were compelled to dis
continue Jt, aa.childrenwonld.not attend, and yot
from that place, last year, fire persons were sent to
State’s prison. Tho law was not intended for those
who; do send their children to school, but for those
who would deprive .them of an'edncarion.
,Tbe consideration of the resolution was postponed
for the present\ ' - r ■
■ Dr. Joseph Parrish teado an address on Edu
cation for the Times. He asked for it'a candid
consideration. Teachers should belong to the select
class Of jphilomatho \, They, should teach that they
might learo,Arid learn that they may teach. We
had a nation of children in our midst. They were
in all stations,- from the'' President to tho laborer.
The objectof education is'to make manhood com
plete and life hohorable. There, were two subjects
tobe' studied by -the teacher. The first of these
was self-teaching. A teacher, should not violate
the,laws of/his body:'. The great basis of education
was physical exerplsd. In the:second place he
should magnify his office. The teacher should bo
honored,'and that he maybe honored he should
honor himself. He should magnify his office by an
elevated tone of morality and refinement.
. Th© subject to bo educated is man in childhood—
a, living, .moving, physical being, curiously and
wonderfully. constructed—a moral being, responsi
ble-to intellectual being, with marvellous
powers'of thinking, conceiving and acting—a being
who can say “JTdare do all that-may become a
man. 5 ’ The body raiißt first be improved and pro-
Eared for the intellect. Luther was enabled to do
is groat work by his digestion. Wesley attributed
all n(s great intellectual feats and labor to his carp
fa! habits of eating. ; How many of oiir great men
are,buried before they are ten years of age. because
of the negligence of abating mothers ? Children go
.to sohool and return home to go to Work, at about
:tho time they shouldJ!lrgt,open a book .and
.meSce’^atiayX'—'vv/
r Tho speakers first proposition was, that tho
primary department of a school should provldo
nursery care for children, and ignoro tho use of
books and letters.' The day is at hand when the
foundation of pubtio school education will bo re
built, the chief cometatone of which will be physi
cal education. Hehopedtbeday would soon como
'when, the primary school would consist of two large
aiiy;roomB, with a piano, - Children learn a great
deal by physioiti education, j They becomo wearied
by the. paraphernalia of arithmeub and grammar.
At seven or nine, and. not before, should ihtelleo
tuMMueation commence. ; r--" w
. The moral sdupation of should bo also
oarefully attended io. Aa the young is committed
to the teacher, ho ehould lay the ; foundation by &
wise ffyetem of pfcysioal edooation. •
; The speaker was noiropbosed to the present sys
tem of eehooi-teaohiDg.v There were many things
to bo learned, to be .changed. Thopys
tent was too cheap,' ami' like ‘things that arc too
cheap, arc wbrtlilcjw. l There iff'hnother teacher in
the'eommuuity, a goqd teacher too, whose name is
Experience. He is teaching the farmer, the laborer*
and the lawyer that* to succeed; we must ho skilled.
That the laborer Is worthy of his hire is felt in all
stations, and is beginning to he feltin education. If
we would cleanse the coming generation of the
stainrof wenmat elevate the system
of-publio educatibn,', , '
We shoold not cultivate one part of education
at the expense of the other!. We muß t math tain
1 he etfaUinrinm of the odnoation* if we would edn
l ate jusUy.,. Awholeaome education of the young
is r ftr msin feature-th&f. should ,be cultivated.
Education should become a real science* and until
thirds done it will never oocupy the position it
should, -/i-l'/'V? - 'iV\ T <: 'I.- * r *' r

/ J. N.' Pierce, of Lancaster county* read an essay
.on tiie rights of pupils. 'After a'rew preliminary
remarks on his theme, he directed the attention of
teachers to the following points i
_ 1. What are the rights of pupils?
,3. What are those rights? , , /
8. To what extent ritosld, these rights bo re
spected?.' - •
In the discussion of these points, the speaker
read a very daborate and well-written essay.
Ift: Wickerfham took pleasure in introducing his
old friend apdpreeopter, Jonathan tiaius* to the

the pupils withthe Importance of study, lie should
be on friendly terms with his pupils, should ‘ treat
them kindly, and.expect these kindnesses were
reciprocated..' * ...
A great trouble arose is the early part of his
career as 4o the. introduction of grammar as a
study;',V 4 , l Wbdon’t like this grammar—we can't
understand these verba, noons, and conjugations—
we’dph’t aee'aoy sense In them,” This aiffionlty
was'gyssrtoine v Jto his day there was a . great, pre
judice' against female teachers—and even against
female learning. He remembered' urging upon a
young lady, a number of years ago, the study of
J3he» hesitated ftt'flrat,- as it was not
fashionable, Finally she consented, and qniokiy
acquired a knowledge of the science. In this day,
there was scarcely ah educated young lady in the
State unacquainted with algebra. >
: There was an extraordinary change since the
days When he cdminenced aohdol-teacmng. A flood
"hf light had hurst upon the soene.-, Everything was
ohanging or had changed* Life, and society, and
education.wore ohanging with them. Tbe philoso

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL*
: . The Express Companies' are great regulators of
inland exchange. Before the establishment of
them, the rates of exchange in the several inland
towns were enormous.. But simultaneously with,
the opening of the express office at any point, came
a reduction in rates.
In 185 Tr when bankers as well os merchants wore
strapped, as the phrase goes, the Express became
the medium of collection of drafts, and the instruc
tions, u Protest if not paid in gold,” were by them
fulfilled tothe letter. ...
Driven to the wall by the new agency, the coun
try banks struok, back, and so used thoir influence
that some of the expresses declined any longer to
present drafts on banks. Packages of bank-notes
were also rofused, except they wore transmitted
fordoposit.
The expresses will do the business community a
favor, and, make money by it, if they will resume
the practice of demanding payment for bank-notes
and checks. The uncurront, now ranging from ito
§ percent, disconfit, can be collected at a profit for
I per cent. The Farmers 1 and Mechanics 1 Bank, in
deed, did not make much by their effort; but they
, cashed the notes, and had to wait for their returns
through special agents. But the expresses have
the machinery already, and can do Rework at a
trifling additional expense, and are not expeoted to
pay until the returns are in thoir bands.
. A tale'is told of amorchant who, vexed at tho
daily shave on the currency he received in regular
business, determined to carry the war into—well,
Africa.- We don’t want to be too particular in
naming the place, lest his good fortnno might
tempt somebody. He bought up tho currency of
the bank, and twiee or thrice a week despatched
his clerk thither with a bundle of their promises.
They bore up for a while under the infliotion, but
finally proposed terms, if he would eease running
them. It was outsido of his rogular business; tho
proposition methis views; protecting him from the
daily loss on currency, or giving him an equivalent,
and he drew off his forcos.
Tho steamship JVfriea sailed at noon to-day with
$450,000 in specie. It is expected the shipment on
Saturdaynext will bo larger, although the total will
fall short last week’s shipment, which was
$2,344,040.25. .
Including to-day’s, the export of specie for 1850
is $43,632,000.
1 Much of tho spcoulative movements of the past
season may he traced to Boston, and it does not
surprise us to hear that her banks are on the verge
of the lowest specie line allowed them by law.
Boston must not be too fast.
Besides our abundant crop, we feel specially
thankful for another thing, and that is the low estl
, motion our moneyed men put upon railroad stocks.
Most of these stooks are held abroftd, and nothing
but tho. utter contempt into which they have fallen
prevents us being ruined by an importation of
bonds -and stooks—an importation which, un
heralded by the custom-house reports, would, when
sold at our stock boards and borrowed on fis col
lateral in our banks, sink us lower than plummet
could sound. Touch not, taste not, handle not.

ETTORE FfERAMOSCA AT BARLETTA.
A!t HISTORICAL NOVSL.
BY MASSIMO D’AZEGLIO.
The author of this novel is well known as one of the
most eminent statesmen in Italy; and from his present
position no leu than the striking parallel between the
situation of affairs now and three centuries ago, it is be
lieved that this brilliant picture will not be without its
-practical valuer i '. 1
As a story it is one of intense interest. The Challenge
of Barletta may fairly vie with Scott’s famous descrip
tion in “ Ivanhoe ” of the tournament at Ashby. The
characters are mostly well known to history. Among
them Ctesar Borgia, the infamous son of Alexander VI
is powerfully drawn.
As & mirror of the Italian character, and os an aid in
understanding the secret springs of Italian history, the
work is full of value.
The attention of Booksellers, and of the reading pob
io, is respectfully invited.
