MONDAY. OCTOBER 34, 1370.
SST The Evening Teleoraph, from
Its original establishment, has been in the
receipt of telegraphic news from the New
York Associated Press, which consists of
the Tribune, Times, Herald, World,
Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening Post,
Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Ex
Press. The success which has attended
our enterprise is, in itself, a sufficient evi
dence of the freshness, fullness, and relia
bility of the news which we have received
from this source. Last March wc entered
Into a special contract by which The
Evening Telegraph has the exclusive
use of the news furnished in the afternoon
by the Associated Press to its own members,
the North American, Inquirer, Ledger,
Press, Age, Record, and German Democrat,
of this city, and the leading journals of the
East, North, West and South; and hereafter
The Telegraph will be the only evening
paper published in tJiis city in which the
afternoon despatches of the Associated
Press w ill appear.
MT The earliest regular edition of The
Evening Telegraph goes to press at 1J
o'clock, and the subsequent regular editions
at 2j, 3, and 4J. "Whenever there is im
portant news of the progress of the Euro
pean war, extra editions will be issued after
this hour, and before the regular time for the
early edition.
THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
It is a matter of common complaint among
the parents of children sent to the public
Schools of Philadelphia that they are still
obliged to devote a large portion of their
time to the task of teaching these pupils their
lessons. This subject was agitated some
months ago, and, if we recollect aright, it
was decided by the proper authorities that a
HOW system should go into operation under
tyllicb the who'e business of school education
eras to be conducted in the schools
during the hours allotted to their
regular sessions. But this improved method
is not in practical operation at the present
moment, and while the brains of the children
are overtaxed, undue exactions are also made
upon the time and attention of obliging rela
tives, friends, guardians, and parents. There
can be no doubt of the bad effects of this sys
tem. If the publio are willing to afford a
good easy time to the professional teachers,
and to assist in developing to an extraordi
nary and unhealthy degree the mental
faculties of some of their brightest
pupils, it may be well enough to continue to
submit to such an outrage. But if the public
Schools, which are sustained at an enormous
cost, are to beneficently answer the real pur
poses of their establishment, the whole busi
ness of sending children home to learn their
lessons cannot too soon be broken up. One
of the greatest and most prolific writers of
the present age, Bulwer, or Lord Lytton,
attributes his suooess to the fact that
he never devoted more than two or three
Lours per day to his literary labors, giving
his wbole attention to them during this
period, and spending all of the remainder of
Lis time in other work or recreation. This
principle has at least this application to
fichoel instruction, that the time during
Which the pupils are confined in the public
Echools is as long a period as they' should
devote to any form of study. As a rale,
Children should never be compelled to spond
more than five or six hoars per day
either in learning or reciting lessons; and
when this rule is violated, we
must anticipate many repetitions of the evil
Which has been frequently and fearfully illus
trated in the publio school system of this
city, of injuring the health and in some cases
of driving to their graves ambitions aud over
taxed young students. It is a crime to de
velop brains by a process which undermine
physical constitutions, destroys vitality, and
renders all the book knowledge that grdtuunr
schools can stuff into young heads worsa
than useless, aud it is wicked folly
for a great city to pamper suoli
a vicicm3 and ruinous system. If the
pupils in our publio schools are usefully em
ployed during the hours consumed in the
school sessions, that time is sufficient, in all
Conscience, for the acquirement of every
species of useful and important book know,
ledge. , If their time is not usefully spent
there must be something radically wrong or
rotten in the method of instruction, and
measures should at once be devised to im
prove it. At all events, it is dangerous and
wrong to continue the stereotyped plan
Cow generally prevailing of confining
Children for five or six hours every day ia
crowded school rooms, and supplementing
i Is confinement by long and wearying
h oars of devotion to lessons at their homes.
If book education Is to be a home work, let
it be put on that basis, and the teachers be
asked merely to give an hour or two per day
to the task of hearing these lessons recited.
13ut youthful flesh and blood cannot endure
without serious injury the double strain now
imposed, and relief for them is imperatively
demanded as well aa for the tired parents,
who are now being constantly pestered with
applications for assistance in the nightly task
of loarning lessons.
THE KINO OF SPAIN.
The e ff airs of Spain have been thrown en
tire'y into the background by the remarkable
series of events that have grown out of the
proposition to plaoe an obscure member of
the house of Hohenzollern upon the throne
which, for the last two years, has been vainly
Reeking an occupant. But while the conflict
between France and Germany ia absorbing
public attention for the moment, the future
of Spain is as much an object of real interest
as it ever was, and the quarrel, of which the
exciting cause was the intrigue to make
Prince Leopold of Ilohenzollern-Sigmaringen
the successor of Isabella II, has at least
given Spain an opportunity to settle her own
affairs in her own way, with a reasonable
hope that sho will not be interfered with.
The French empire has fallen, and the Em
peror who assumed to be the arbiter of
Europe is a throneless prisoner and exile.
Spain has nothing to fear from the dic
tation of Napoleon or the jealousy of the
French people; and an opportunity, such as
may never occur again, has been given her to
consummate the good work com moncod by
the expulsion of Isabella, by the establish
ment of the form of government best suited
to the tastes and habits of the people, and by
the selection of a ruler who will be in accord
with the spirit of the age, and who will de
vote himself with energy to the task of rescu
ing Spain from the slough of despond into
which she has fallen, and, so far as in his
power lies, make her great, prosperous, and
happy.
The latest choice of the Spanish Cabinet,
if not of the Spanish people, for the regal
position that has so long gone begging is the
Duke of Aosta, the socond son of King Vic
tor Emanuel, and the cable informs U3 that
his acceptance of the throne has been offi
cially announced. Prince Amadeus Ferdi
nand Marie, Duke of Aosta, was born May
.'50, 1845, and is therefore twenty -five years of
age. He was married May 30, 180", to Marie,
daughter of Prince Charles Emanuel dal
Pazzo della Cisterna. The Duke of Aosta is
the cousin of the Duke of Genoa,
who was also a candidate for the
throne of Spain some time ago, but who was
compelled to decline the proffered honor on
account of the intrigues of Napoleon III.
"With regard to the Duke of Aosta but little
is known except that he has the reputation of
possessing much of his father's easy good
nature and rather profligate tastes. Presum
ing him to be much the same kind of a man
as the King of Ita'y, he may be set down as a
tolerably good kind of prince as princes go
now-a- days in Europe, and while it is possi
ble that the Spaniards might have found a
better ruler, they also might have gone
further and fared worse. Victor Emanuel,
without being a great genius, has a fair amount
of solid common sense, and on the whole his
administration of affairs since he has been
King of Italy has been in a high degree satis
factory, lie has shown considerable skill in
managing the conflicting interests of the pe
ninsula and in consolidating the various petty
Italian States into one great kingdom; he has
steadily enlarged the bounds of liberty, while
restraining license; and, although much re
mains to be done in Italy, it cannot be denied
that he has done much for which he is enti
tled to great credit. ,
As the King of Spain the Duke of Aosta
will in some respects have a larger field and a
more arduous task before him than that
which has engaged the attention of his father,
but if he can contrive to suppress or to keep
on good terms with such inveterate intriguers
as Prim, and at the same time to bring a
little clear-headed common sense to bear
upon the ordering of national affairs, his
prospects of success will at least appear pro
mising. Now, if over, is the time for the
Spaniards to establish a permanent govern
ment according to their own ideas of their
own necessities, and if they must have a king
the young Italian prince upon whom their
choice has fallen is likely to prove as unob
jectionable as any one they were likely to
obtain.
A NEW POLICY FOR TEE UNITED
STATES.
An envoy from Ihe Red River district is said
to be on his way to Washington with a memo
rial addressed to President Grant, stating
that the Canadian Government has violated
its pledges of amnesty to the insurgents, and
is otherwise acting oppressively towards
them, and requesting the President to inter
cede with the Queen for the peaceable an
nexation of the Red River country to the
United States. While it is not at all likely
that the President will accede to this request,
it is a serious question whether it would not
be advantageous in mora ways than one if
the United States Government would coquette
a little with the Red River pecplo and
with other disaffected inhabitants of
the British dominions to the north of us.
The yielding policy that has been adopted by
our Government in nearly all the controver
sies it has had with Great Britain has been
one of the reasons why we have found it
almost impossible to obtain any concessions
from British statesmen even when we were
clearly and incontrovertibly in the right. If
we had been more peremptory in urging our
claims to the line of forty-four-forty at the
time of the settlement of the Northwest
boundary question, we would, in all proba
bility, have been spared an Alabama diffi
culty, or would at least have found the
British Government better disposed to come
to terms with us about it. It is because
the Government and people of the United
States have shown themselves ,so little die
posed to meddle with British affairs oa this
continent that they bavo been obliged to put
up with snubs innumerable; and it is well
worthy of consideration whether the time has
not come to let the British people know that
we have the disposition as well as the power
to give them trouble if they do not do as
justice. In the Northwest we have the San
Juan difficulty remaining aa a remnant of the
fifty'-four-forty controversy, while ia the
Northeast ia the fishery question that needa
to be settled upon an equitable basis. Then
there are the Alabama olaima still open
for adjudication, and the import
ance of the United States being
able to command the mouth of the St. Law
rence river is daily becoming more and more
apparent. It will be Been that we have plenty
of material to deal with in getting up a firsi
class diplomatio difficulty with Great Britain,
even if we do not include the Red River
affair; and while it is not necessary for us to
provoke a war, it may be worth our while to
excite an irritation in the British mind by
adopting a line of policy that will make ns
feared as well as respected. If the President
gives the Red River envoy a little encourage
ment, the probabilities are that he will do
more to settle the Alabama claims and to in
duce the abandonment of the British preten
tions to the ownership of San Juan Island
than he would be able to by any other style
of diplomacy.
A cable despatch informs us that the
Catholic hierarchy of Great Britain have
issued a protest against the occupation
of the Papal territory by the I tali in
Government, and that they call upon
all good Catholics to form "prayer
unions" to protest against the treatment of
the Pope and to prepare documents on the
subject whioh may be made the basis of an
appeal to the British Parliament. Praying
and protesting, although they may not do
much towards restoring the Pope to his tem
poral power, are proper enough and natural
enough measures for good Catholics, who
think that the visible Head of the
Church has been badly treated, to
adopt, but the idea of appealing
for aid to. the British Parliament, while there
may be nothing objectionable in it, will cer
tainly strike non-Catholic observers as rather
ludicrous. Parliament is not only largely
composed of bigoted opponents of Popery,
but it actually represents, in its official char
acter, a religious organization that is zealously
antagonistic to the pretensions of Rome. It
has required no small exertion on the part of
liberal and fair-minded men to secure for
the Catholics in Great Britain their civil and
religious rights, and they are even yet sub
jected to some annoying restrictions that
prove conclusively the indisposition of their
opponents to grant them anything more in
the way of privileges than can be avoided.
If England will not interfere between
France and Germany, she will scarcely call
Italy to account for performing, in the occu
pation of the Papal territory, an act that
more than nine-tenths of the people openly
rejoice at. No Ministry that would
even hint at such a proposition would be able
to brave for an hour the storm of anti-Catholic
indignation that would be raised against
it; and if the Catholio prelates have really
intended to make an appeal for help to the
British Government, their intellects must
surely have been clouded by the remarkable
events of the past few months that, follow
ing fast upon the promulgation of the infalli
bility dogma, have swept away the temporal
power of the Pope without exciting from the
majority of mankind more than a passing
comment upon the event.
Some of the Democratic papers of this city
have been clamoring so loudly for the trial of
Crawford, whose offense consists in defending
himself from a deadly assault, that they have
quite forgotten to urge prompt action in the
case of Ahem, who figures in all the testi
mony relating' -o the riot at the meeting of
the return judges as an.aotive leader. The
overshadowing wrong in this whole trans
action was the violent and forcible interrup
tion of a vitally important public proceeding,
and if Ahern took a prominent part in perpe
trating this offense, he, above all other men,
should be looked after by the Distriot Attor
ney. If innocent, that fact should be demon
strated to the satisfaction of a jury, and we
trust that Mr. Sheppard will very soon give
Ahern an opportunity to do this.

Sea Moss Farine. Tnis is a new article of food,
which we take pleasure in commending to our
readers. We have used It ia onr families, and have
found It to be the most nutritious, delicate, and
palatable article for tablo use we have seen.
It Is a light and agreeable farine, very pleasant to
the taste, easy or digestion, and hence specially
adapted to the use of the sick, the thousands of
dyspeptics among us, and for young children; be
sides, the Sea Mobs, Its principal ingredient, has
many curative properties, aud is highly recom
mended for pectoral and scrofulous ail'ections, and
is perfectly harmless.
Here, then, we have an entirely new article of
fcod of the most delicate and Inviting character,
adapted to the use of the table for Blanc Mange,
Puddings, Charlotte do Rns3e, etc, and almost in
valuable for use by the invalid. It is simple, dell
cite, nutritions, harmless, remedial, and economi
cal, as it can be furnished for one-third to one-half
the cost or Corn Starch, Maizena, Farina, etc., for
ail of which it is more than a substitute.
It is made up without trouble, and will always be
good. Try it ; and our word for It, you will continue
in Its use. Independent.
A Cross Husband Mrs. Smith The fact is, my
husband Is becoming so outrageously cross and
nervous that there Is no living with him. He pre
tends on day that he has got the dyspepsia; the
next day liver complaint; the next is sick, with no
appetite declares that there Is nothing on the table
fit to eat, and so on. It Is all nonsense, and nothing
but his confounded ugliness. From the very bottom
of my heart, I believe he wants to worry me to
death.
Lady Friend Mrs. Smith, I think you are wrong.
No woman has a kinder or more indulgent husband
than you. I must confess that I have noticed a
change In Mr, Smith ; but am Inclined to think that
all be wants Is a tonic ; and if I were you, I would
not be a day without Plantation Bitters In the
houe. Make him taXe them moderately three
times a day, and in a short time I think you will see
a change. My experience Is that Plantation Bitters
Is one of the best and most delicious tonics lu the
world ; and that for nervousness, loss of appetite,
dyspepsia, and all kindred complaints, there is
nothing so good.
