EASTERN SOLDIEBS IN THE WEST!
Western newspaper correspondents ap
pear- to have a J grudge against Eastern
soldiers. Scarcely any important move
ment is reported at 'the West, in which
Eastern troops are engaged, that there is
not a fling at them of some kind. The
latest story is that General Smith’s cavalry
expedition did not accomplish all it aimed
at,in consequence of the delay of some New-
Jersey and Pennsylvania regiments. If
there was such delay, the numbers of the
regiments should have been mentioned.
Eut from the omission of this, we are dis
posed to think there is no truth in the report
whatever. Eastern soldiers have fought'
at the West as well as the best Western
Soldiers. There have been Pennsylvania
regiments in service in Tennessee,ever since
the war began, whose record is as glorious
as that of any regiment in the army. The
lith and 12th army corps, which were de
taehed from the Army of the Potomac, and
bv + Grant > were not surpassed
composed of Eastern men, has
complied all th.at was expected ° o f t
But it must be - remembered that the
Anny of the Potomac has been opposed to
the best army of the South, led bythew
general in the rebel service. The
qualities of Lee’s army have never W

together with the almost dim’
culties of campaigning in a country i;™'
"Virginia, we venture to assert , that the
Army of the Potomac has done as well as
any army that ever was organized. Some
•f the Eastern troops that were most dis
tinguished when opposed 49 the rebels i»
Northern Ccor&to, were.-the very -troops
" that were considered to have behaved.worst
at xTrcderieksburg," Chancellorsville
’Gettysburg, when opposed to the 'feterin
army of General Lee. It is foolish and un
just "tostigmatizethe conduct of the iroops
of any section or any State, as cowardly or
Ui soldierlike. The material is the same m
every. State, and regiments of Union
toers, when ; properly disciplined ’’and com
manded, will fight well, to whatever State
they in ay'belong. ;
JSJBI.IC INSTRUCTION TJNDEE NATIONAL
It is a fact plain to every man of intelli
gence in the United States, that, from the
' close of the revolutionary war and the
adoption of the federal compact, the several
States that compose this Union have been,
gradually diverging from each other m
thought, feeling and policy, until this di
vergence reached , its climax in open war ;
and that to re-unite us fully ah opposite
tendency must be cultivated, such as will
make us a uniform an.d homogeneous na
tion. Now there is nothing which is more
nccessary for this than a National School
System. So longae doctrines of nullifica
tion and secession are inculcated in State
schools at the South, so long may we expect
the existence of anti-national feeling to con
tinue there. 1
Education, like the currency, is a na
tional, and not a State affair. "Both have
been too long usurped by the local govern
ments, and both must be resumed by the
nation. We have everything to gain by the
change. The schools have not been weil
administered by the local authorities, and a
reform seems as necessary as it is difficult
under the present system.
In our own city we have had some few
honest and right-minded men upon the
Beard of Controllers, and they have pre
vented the utter ruin of the schools; never
theless, there is much that they, have not
succeeded in reforming. It has been broadly
asserted, and without contradiction, that
female teachers, particularly unworthy,
have been appointed through personal fa
voritism. Could anything prove more tho
roughly the degradation to which the mat
ter has come ? 1 *
We say, therefore, without hesitation,
that even at the North the schools would
have much to gam by a thorough re-organi
zation. And at the South the condition of
matters .has Irecn infinitely worse. Olm
stcad mentions the fact that the certificate
of a teacher in one of the Louisiana schools
bore the marks of ten of the School Directors,
who were unable to sign their names!
There is another consideration of no small
importance. Provision must be made for
the education of the freedmen, and espe
cially for their children. It has always
been the policy of the Southern States to
ksep their slaves in the most utter igno
rance, and this is a state of affairs which
must not exist hereafter. Nor can we look
to these States to effect the reform.

It is true that of their Go
vernments may now; pass temporarily into
the hands of men opposed to Slavery and
anxious to improve the condition of the Frecd
men; hut this can scarcely be looked upon
as a permanent state of affairs. We now
have matters in our own hands, and it is our
duty, to lay a lasting foundation, such as
future opposition may be powerless to upset.
It is our duty to organize throughout the
Southern States (and necessarily throughout
the whole Union, as no partial arrangement
s possible as a permanency) a thorough
system of school instruction, embracing
white schools and colored schools, such as
may educate the next generation into'loy
alty and patriotism, into love and respect
for freedom and free Government. - It is a
vast undertaking; but these are days of vast
undertakings, and great reforms can only
be accomplished in times like these, when
onr whole social system is stirred to its very
centre, and -when it depends upon us to
mould it into the form in which it will set
and harden. It is not in times of peace and
prosperity that men are willing to see the
faults and flaws of their social system; it is
only while the lessons of adversity are fresh
upon them that they will recognize their
errors and set at work in earnest to reform
them. (
Mr. Murdoch’s Lecture, in aid of the Spe
cial Belief Committee of the Women’s Branch
of the Sanitary Commission, will be delivered
in the Academy of Mnsiic this evening. The
Special Relief disburses money, coal, provi
sions and other supplies among the widows and
families of soldiers; so we need say nothing by
way of commending this charity to our people.
Mr. Murdoch’s lecture is entitled “Relics of
Three Memorable Periods of the Great Repub
lic,’’.and he will introduce various patriotic
readings. ‘ We can promise all whogo to the
Academy this evening a fine intellectual treat.

CENTRAL FATK,
FOR THE " '
Sanitary Commission.
Philadelphia, 1307 Chestnut Street
member 3 of the Executive
CENTRAL FAIR for
1661 tm ’ beg to invite thc «>-ope
r * j' 1 * th , eir fe U°w-cltizens, especially of
ttoee resident in Pennsylvania, Delaware and
New Jersey, in this important enterprise. It is
proposed to hold the Fair in Philadelphia, in thP
FIRST "WEEK IN JUNE
fidently expected that the contributions coming
from a popnla ion so -benevolent and patrioUc as
that which inhabits the Central States, and repre
sentingtbemost Important and varied branches rf
art > will secure aresult in aid ot the
Commission, and for the benefit of
at least equal to that which has at
tr undertakings In other cities, it
iary to say a won! to stimulate sym
ie soldier. We feel for .hem all as
—on, ad the popular heart seeks only the
best mode of manifesting that sympathy in the
most efficient and practical way. Them fairs in
other places have been product! ve of great results.
By this means Chicago has recently raised for this
object SCOiOCO, Boston 8150,000. and Cincinnati
more than 8200,000. We appeal, then, with the
greatest confidence to the inhabitants of the Cen
tral Slate:, especially to those who constitute the
gTeat industrial classes, to send as contributions
ffie productions of their skill and workmanship.
We appeal to them in the interest of no p irty,
radical or conservaUve, Republican or Democratic,
Administration or anti-Administration. We know
only this, that to send .onr national soldiers in the
field supplies to supplement those Qoverment un
dertakes to give them, bnt which they sometimes
fail lo receive, and thus to relieve them when sick
and in misery, is a work of Christian charity, and
that it is a work of intelligent patriotism also, as
economizing their life, health and efficiency, on
which, under God, the nation depends in this its
time ot trouble.
We therefore ask every clergyman to announce
this humane undertaking to his people, and to ad.
rise them to do-what they can to farther it. We
ask the press to give it the widest publicity and the
most earnest encouragement. We call on every
workshop, factory and mill for a specimen of the
best thing it can turn out; on every artist, great
and small, for one of his creations ; on all loyal
women, for the exercise of their taste and indus
try; on farmers, far the products of their fields
and dairies. The miner, the naturalist, the man
of science, the traveler, can each send something
that can at the very least be converted into a
blanket that will warm, and may save from dearth,
some one soldier whom government supplies have
failed to reach. Every one who can produce any.
thing that has money value is invited to give a
sample of his best work as an offering to the cause
of national unity. Every workingman, mechanic
or farmer, who can make a pair of shoes or raise a
barrel of apples. Is called oa to contribute some,
thing that can be tarried into money, and again
from money into the means of economizing the
healih and the life of our national soldiers.
Committee* have been appointed In each depart
ment of industry avd art. whose business it will
be to solicit cottribntions for the Fair, each in its
ovrn special branch. 0 hese Committees will place
then selves in communication with those persons
who may wish to aid us. Iu the meantime it ts
recommended that local committees or associations
should be formed in every portion or Pennsylva
nia, Delaware and Jiew Jersey, with a Tiew of
organising the industry of their respective neigh
borhoods, eu as to secure contributions for the
Fair.
Committees of Radies have also been organized
to eo operate with those of the gentlemen in soli
citing contributions.
A list cf all these Committees will be shortly
published and distributed. In the meantime those
who are disposed to aid us, or who may desire any
farther information on the subject, are requested
to address CHABLES J. STILLE, Corresponding
Secretary < f the Executive Committee or the Great
Central Fair, 1307 CHESTNUT Street.
