The Rad ical presses and speakers assail the President with coarse vituperation, because they can urge no sound ob its i jeclions nijainst either his character ow l or his conduit.. They should first show that ho deserves to bo condemn ed, before they eotidemt, him ; that lie is justly obnoxious to ridicule, Itoforc they ridicule him.

Parents would scarcely thii.k of send ing their children away alone to ac complish an imjiortant work ; and yet they do just that, when they send them to the school room and bestow no further thought upon their educa tion from the Is-ginning to the end of ihe term.
