J. K. 11 ahull*, Belleville, Mifflin County FAittrr. For the Educational Column. A parsimonious policy, in education, is poor economy, and a wasting ex pense. Good schools are the cheapest things in the market. So are good teachers. Poor schools arc the dear est, for they are not only a waste of money, but of much valuable time and life. The more money we have the better teachers we can secure, and as a consequence, we shall have better schools. — 12. 1. Schoolmaster. The demand for teachers is at pres ent greater than the supply. The peo ple are learning that they must pay " good wages tor good work" in the school as well as in the shop. Thi* is one of the most ehicring si-us of the* times, and we are happy at seeing, that almost everywhere the salary of the teacher is advancing. — 12>port of Slate S'ipt. of 1 Visrousin. The School Tax. The slaveholders' rebellion would never have been inaugurated, bad the people of the .South for the past thirty years, believed in the payment of a lib eral school tax; and it would never have been crushed, had the people of the .North and the West during the same period, refused the payment of said tax for the education of tise mass es. Had a goyd common school sys tem been adopted throughout the southern States thirty years ago, the nation would not to day stagger un der her heavy debt ot three billions. No intelligent citizen can longer deny that the school tax is the best tax. the most remunerative us well as the most important, that he is called upon to pay. Far better than an in vestment in five twenties, excellent as that may be, is the payment of a gen erous school tax. For many years our leading educators and other close and intelligent observers have in some degree appreciated the great blessings which this particular tax was confer ring upon us as :t nation. But m t even these men could know the lull value of the investment which we of the North had been making from year to year, uniii the hour of sore trial came, and our nation wasplun.-.ed into a protracted civil war. Other and heavier taxes we have paid to meet current demands upon the public treasury, hut this tax has proven the seed corn which has multiplied ilstli ten thousand fold, for it was the abid ing influence of the Common School that saved the nation. And in pre serving our nationality, who will pre tend to estimate the blessings it has conferred, not only upon ourselves as a people, but upon the human race the vide world over! When therefore, we have found this investment to pay so handsome a div idend, what better policy can we adopt than to inereaso our annual in stalments? It is the part of wisdom to reap the full benefits which this tax is able to confer. Towards this ra tional view of (he matter,popu ar sen timent i • steadily " marching on." Pa rents see more clearly than ever be fore that it is better, far better, to ex pend a part of their means upon the education of their children than to give them a few additional acreaor bequeath them a few hundred dollars more in their wills. They have learned that property may be lost, that wealth may take to itself wings, oftentimes leaving the bankrupt wretchedly poor and ut terly hopeless, but that a good educa tion, backed by a reasonably good de gree of energy, is a cash capital which can neither be lost nor stolen. And since the public schools are open to all, this large class of patrons is desirous that the}' shall be rendered as efficient as any other schools made prominent by private enterprise. r l he time was nor is the period very remote—when the "blind pub lie' grumbled at the payment of a tax ! much lower than is now paid wiiliii'dy I in many cases gladly. The beggarly pittance paid the teacher but a few years ago, has been increasing until in some localities it fairly deserves the name ot salary. Salaries double and treble those formerly paid, are now ad vertised in many directions, arid the profession of teaching is taking a more dignified rank since teachers them selves are bettor qualified, and the public is growing into a better appre ciation of the true character of their labors But the school tax in most parts of the country, is still far below what the importance of this interest demands, and whatever other taxes may go low er, because ot a decrease in the na tional debt or a reduction of the na tional expenditure, this must continue to go higher, in order that wc may build better school houses, furnish them with better appliances of teach ing, secure the services of a more de voted and better qualified class of in structors, and carry our common school system, of noble capacity and richest promise, to a far higher degree of efficiency.
