By a circular (rem the State Superin tendent, we learn that the following topics will be specially brought before the assem blage 1. The minimum lenslu of time the schools should be kept open. Should it be Increased to five or six months? 2. Uniformity of text-books in count ios. Should a provision be mede in the law foreil'ect inz such unilormitv? 3. County aid to Teachers' Institutes. Should the law now In existence in eight counties be made eem-tal ? 4. Provisional Certificates.-Should ihey bo dispensed with? It not, what chanee- should be made iu the policj now practised in regard to prantinfr them ? 6. Renewing and indorsing Certificates b.v Uouuty Superintendents. Is it good policy to renew and indorse them f 6. District Superintendent1'. Should there be . preneral law providing for their appointment 7. Dibtrict Institutes. What can bo done to incrfap their number? 8. Branches ol study required by law. Should Kidiiioiis or substitutes be made ? Some of these questions arc of general ln!,e rest, while others relate more particularly to subjects with which the Superintendents are specially concerned . In regard to the question of increasing the minimum length of time that school should be kept open to five or six months, there can hardly be two opinions, it seems to us, among the intelli gent iriends of education.. Every district bl.ould have at least two terms of school, during the year; one in the winter, when the cessation of ordinary (arm labor allows the older children and youth to attend; the other in the spring or early summer, more especially calculated lor the youneer children but yet with ample provision for such others as may be able to be present. Three months is the minimum length of time lor which each of these sessions should be held, and the winter session might be four or even five. Farm labor throughout tbe country, in this latitude, is mainly over before the first of November, and does not generally commence before the first of April. Here are five months during which good, active, sprightly schools ought to be kept going in every district. In regard to a very large number of the children over twelve years of age, th's term is the only one during the year that they attend; and every practical teacher knows that the last two months ol a five months' session are worth more to his scholars than the first three. It takes a month or two for scholars who spend six or seven months a year in manual labor to get accustomed to study, and to form habits of close and con tinuous attention. At fl st their minds are unstrung and without discipline. Study is irk some, and it requires an effort to confine the thoughts to a single subject. But after a few weeks this wears off, and tha student is then prepared to do his work and to make substantial progress. In a short term of three months, he bardly gets into this condition of preparedness for mental labor before school is out, and he returns again to the farm or the workshop. Another argument in favor of long terms in the winter is the fact that, in a great ma jority of our schools, there is a change of teachers every year. And here again the experience of every teacher is that it takes several weeks to become so familiar with the scholars personally, as to know their acquire ments and mental habits sufficiently well to get them properly classified and into the best shape for making progress. Moreover, in regard to scholars who attend school only during the winter term, a little preparatory review of what they have previously gone over is absolutely essential befoie they are fitted to advance in their studies. All these considerations, and they are eminently practical ones, lead us to the belief that the minimum length of time lor the' winter sessions of our common schools bbould never bo less than four, and might well be five months. The summer schools should be at least three months in duration, though as a general rule they are less import ant than the whiter schools, especially in the rural districts. There ate other topics suggested by the questions we have above quoted worthy of discussion, to which we may allude at some other time. The Young Men's Christian Association The annual meeting of the Young Men's Christian Association last evening at the Aca demy of Music, presents a fitting occasion for calling public attention to the. very Important field occupied and work done by that body. Surely every effort to throw the restraints of Christian morality about the hosts of young men growing up in a great city like this, and exposed to its multitudinous temptations, is worthy of the Highest commendation. The Young Men's christian Association has been in existence now for twelve years, and Its labors have been crowned with marked success. It seeks to furnish the young men of our city with pure arid elevat ing associations ; it affords Uiein the advan tages ot literary culture and companionship; It supplies them with an excellent reading room and library; and it seeks, by these aud Vlndred influences, to forestall temptation, THE DAILY" EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 18GG. and to rurow about them s-eh restraints as are most effectual to keep thir feet from the downward road. We advise our young men generally to Join this Association, and go to work with it; and we bespeak for the Sxloty Itself an Increased measure of publ'c confidence and support. The Size and Salary ot the Police force. Ykstkbdat petitions were presented to botli branches of Councils to increase the pay and number ol our city police. It has long been a well-known fact taat the extent of our city and the number of its Inhabitants required a much stronger force than tho law at present allows. The wages of the officers, also, could be increased with Justice. Let us glance at the statistics of our own and other munici palities. New York has 800,000 inhabitants and 1500 policeman, being an average ot one for every 533 inhabitants. They receive $1200 per annum. Boston has 210,000, with 370pollccmen, averaging one for 632. Wash ington, with 120,000, has 238, or one for 504. While Philadelphia has 650,000 inhabitants by the old census, with 800 policemen, or one for 813 citizens, at an annual pay of $730. It is a false economy which would refuse a fair increase of salary, and it is mistaken wis dom not. to enlarge the foroe to at least 1000, if not 1200 men. We think the petition of the officers of the force is eminently a proper one, and hope that our City Councils will act promptly and generously on the questions submitted. The people, the tax-payers, de sire to have efficient protection from honest policemen, and are willing to have a fair price paid them lor their services in guarding lrom danger the Tves and property ol the re sident within their districts. The Itlght Kind ol an Order. We are glad that there is at least one United States officer who is disposed to pat his foot upon those displays of Rebel feeling osten-1 sibly to honor some dead "hero," but really to afford an occasion for keeping up a sort of esprit du corps with reference to the Kebel cause itself which have been so offensive to every truly loyal man. The gallant Thomas issued the following order lately in reference to one of these ovations,'' whih had been planned for the remains of the Rebel General R. W.

William l. Wbipplk, Bvt. Brig. Gen. V S. a. ana A. A. O. THE RIGHTS OF THE REVOLTED SECTION. To the Editor ? 77ie Evening Felegraph . Blelinoton, K, .. November 18. 1863. 1 have this moment read your very courteous edi torial comments on my briel communication of No vember 11. It is possible that my language was a shade too strong, as vou surges' ; but 1 oan assure you that there was no in ention or being discour teous. You appear to mi-understand my position. lly argument was not that The citizens of the late revolted States encased in the Rebellion were less responsible to the law because the Rebellion was-not a valid act, but that the act of the Rebellion belna; ille gal, all acts, resolves, and ordlnanoet under the pre tended authoilty of the Government such lie cell Ion called into existence were absolutely void. The liability of the citizens so engaged in rebellion re mained the same under the Constitution. The invalidity of the legislative act could not in any way- increase or diminish the guilt of those participating in the Bebellion, any more than It could affect tae legal status of the Slate oi which he was a member, it is clear that a State cannot confer power on an agent to do what the State Itself has no right to do, whe ther that agent has legislative character or is a special agent; and any person assuming to aot under auihoilty ot a State, la a case where tae State has no right, does not represent the State or bind the State, and cannot justify under the State. The status ot the Slate in the Union is, therefore, in no way affected by the gui t of the rebellious citizens, be it great or small. The s.s us of the State re mains, therefore, what it was beiore tae war com. menoed. That this is so m ast be evident from the fact that the judges ot the United States have assumed their functions in most oi the late revolted States, withont the. passage of any laws whatever to enable them to perform their duties therein. In order to do this, tho States where they exercise their authority must exist as member of the Union, because, when a State ceases to be a member oi tbe Union, tbe judicial authority of tbe United States must cease. Ihe authority of tae Federal Judiciary over this very State of Georgia is supreme at this moment, is exercised now, and has been exero'sed tor some time. It the state, then, is a member of the Union for judicial pur poses, why is it not equally so tor tbe purposes of representation r Tbe States have not been in rebellion, only the people. Ihe Kebell on was per tonal, and tho offense that of individuals, not of States. Tbe late revolted States have not abdicated or forfeited, and could not, ihe character '.hey pos sessed and tbe relation in which they stood before the war. fhoy are States still, and as much States ts when the tnsutrection was inaugurated; and their i elation to their sister States, and their con sequent relation to the Government of the United States, U the fame relation in which the; stood to both when the insurrection commenced. But yon say "the State oi Georgia had no organiad politi cal existence. It was organized b a power which bad no right to reorganize it." Sow, 1 hold that tbe question whether Mr. Johnson's plauol establishing provisional poveruments in the Southern States was legal or otherwise, has no hing w.Vtever to do with the issue between us. No doubt In order t enable the late revolted states to resume their lu no tions, some Lew action, not prescribed, was to be resorted to at the close oi t'te war. If "the State of Georgia " as you say, "does rot exist," howoomes h that it U recognised as suoh oracism Ijt the purposes of taxation at the bar of the Supreme Court, and in the exercise of that highest aot of sovereignty, the right 10 vote on amendments to the Constitut our If the late revolted states are not In the Union, and unuer the protecting orgisofthe Constitution, then the so earn allegations made everywhere by the Republican partr at the outbreak ofthelaie civil war, that the struggle was one to maintain the supremaoy of tbe Constitution and restore the Union, was a stupendous fraud, and tbe more bass and wicked, beoause it was the only In ducement, at tbe outset of the straggle, that led many to peril Ufa and limb to vtnlioate it truth. Buppooe yoa bad said, at the ontaM of the war, to the thovsands who Hooked to the Federal standard, Ibis is not a war to maintain the supremaoy of tne Constitution, or to restore the Union, bat simply to put oown th Rebellion, and then to establish a Conprosslonal Direc ory out of tbe Senators and Representatives lrom the Northern States, who shall dictate what teinis it mavplease for the resto ration oi the late rcro ted Sta'es to the Union ," How many men in your armies would have re mained to risk life and limb and health in the establishment of such a polioy? The Southern Con fedoracy would have bten in full power and authority to day. Remarks. In reply to our correspondent, we would briefly ask: "What is a State?" It must consist of one of three things, either the territoiy within its borders, or the people living in that territory, or the civil cor poration created by those people, and en dowed with certain privileges. It is clearly not the territory, fdt if tbe Ptate ot New Jersey were to be annexed to Pennsylvania, the territory would remain the same, but the btate would have ceased to exist. It Is not tbe pe' pie that our correspondent granted in bis lost communication. It is the legally elected officers, constituting the civil corpora tion. IlasGeorgln any such officers? No; not one. Granted that the whole Rebellion was null and void, and that legally the State of Georgia has done nothing since 1801, where are her officers? They have all returned to private lite, by the expiration of their terms. Ilave they any legal successors who hive been elected according to law ? Clearly they have not. Where, then, is fife State of Georgia? The State ol Georgia is a thing ol the past. Our correspondent says the status of the Mate remains the same as before the war. faThat this is so, is evident from the fact that the fudges of the United States have assumed their functions in most of the lately revolted fctates without the passage of any law. In order to do this, the States where they exer cise their authority might exist as members of the Union, because where a State ceases to be a member ot the Union, the Federal au thority of the United States must cease" The Circuit Courts of the United States have not sat lu any of tbe Southern States since 1801. The District Couris are appointed to sit in certain sections of country, geo graphically allotted, and bearing no relation to the States. That part of the United States lyiDg between the Delaware river aud the Alleghenios, and between New York and Maryland and Virginia, constitutes the Eastern District ol Pennsylvania. If the fctate of Pennsylvania was to be blotted out, it would not change the power of this Court. It sits in a certain territory, and so long as the territory belongs to tbe United States, so long does its power remain. 1 hat it mufit exist as a State is illogical and absurd. "If the State of Ueor.?ia des not exist, how corner it that it is recognized as sach organism for tho purposes of taxation?" "It the State, then, is such for judicial pur poses, why is it not equally so for the pur poses of representation?" Whl o the States, by rebellion, forfeited all their rights, they failed to free themselves from any ot their duties as members of the Union. That a criminal loses all rights by his misdeeds, does not free him from his obli arationo. The right of repudiation was forfeited, but the duty of paying taxes has not been escaped. Hence, whi!e she is amenable to all the laws of the United States, she is not at present entitled to any of the rights of a mem ber of the Federal family. In bringing this argument to a finality, we agree with our correspondent that the war was prosecuted to maintain the supremacy of the Constitution, and in order that, through an eternity, its supremacy may be secured, we demand guarantees of the South for future good behavior. It is but a consistent con clusion of the great struggle ; and as soon as the bonds are signed, the North will re ceive back the new rtates, " redeemed, re generated, and disenthralled by the Irresistible genius ot universal justice."
