SEPARATION' OF TAE SCEIOOL FROM THE STATE
DEPARTMENT.
A third of red contemplated in .the organi
zation of.this Association, and one whieh we
are happy to know has been razed, was -the
entire separation of the departMent of Pub ,
lic: Insttnetion from . the department of
State: -
Universal education, abstraitli considered,,
hhs always been a imputar itte, in ibis coun
try ; but in . its clair*S . upon 'the' exeCutive
interposition and 'Legislative aid; it has'sliar
ed, in this State, the satite_ey:perienci that . it
his met in other States, and been . compelled I
to accept too small a portion if geverainent- . '
al-patronage.. When compared, in respect to
importance, to the general welfare' of the
State with other publin interests, some of
whin% have drawn largely upon the public:
treasury, and' enjoyed the earnest efforts . cf
oar statesmen in their behalf, the cause of
eduitationirnay be said to have been sadly
overlooked, and our
_present claims arelilust
so much strengthened by that fact.: It sloes_
not appear to have- fully entered into the
'an - Hs of our publicmen, that education, to
be-of 'practical advantage to the nation, or a-
State; toast:be
Literature and. learnipg have had their
Patrons in all ages ; but.during all their his
tory,-down to Within two centuries,—distinct
and separate front the aristocratic - circles of
the governing class; and also, from the de
pendent"masses. It is not difficult to Oercetve
that while eduiation sustained such relations
to
-the World, it was poweyless - to 'produce
any grind effect upon the character of Na—
tions.
,It is only when it'becomes national
ized,4-when it holds its • proper rank among
the public concerns of State; that its power
to 'elevate a. people is felt.- Fortunately for
the Common.Sdrools of Pennsylvania,-those
who have-stood at the had of the depart
meat for a few years past, have beetr:friends
to the cause of popular education, and-so far
as consistent with other public duties of an
engrossing character, it has enjoyed their best
services. It is due to the honorable gentle
men, with whose administration it has been
my good fortune to' be somewhat familiar,—
the 'Hon. C. A. Black, Secretary of State, and
his akile deputy, I,: Dieffenbieh, as well as
rNiorthy simeesiors, the Hon. A. G. Cur
tin, and 11. C. Hickok—the last named of
'whom is now our able State Superintendent,
—to say • that they have been ably evinced
theirippreciation of the importance of thii
department'of public welfare. But we have
held, and do still bold, that the education'Of
the childrenof the State--:-has not occupied
that place in the Organization of out State
gorernment . to which its importance entitles
it, and thatjts' interests' can never be duly
fostered, until made entirely independent of
every Other-publie interest; and it has for its
management, the anineumbered talents and
energies of snob our ahlest statesmen and
educators Re s in the judgetnent of the appoint- .
r ing power, will beseserre the cause.

ever may be the provisions of private institn.
flans for supplying the deficiency, the public.
schools of our State will fait td receive - the
advantages from this, source tha% their inter
est demands, and the whole department lan
guish and suffer depression as a consequence.
It is positively unworthy eta-populous state
like our own, thel second id rank in the
Union in .point - 'oil pepulation and. political
influence to attempt to conduct the stupend
ous svciii• of educatingLber thousands of sons
and daughters without the aid of the best
agencies that the hest of her educators can
devise. -
Institutions of the- character of those we
propose are by no Means numerous.. Indeed
the cost of buildings, apparatus, and other re
quisites., is so groat that none are likely to,be
had without the l i beral aid of the.govern
meat. The law re ently passed by our Legis •
!attire, with reference to this matter, permits
the establishment in our State of twelve In
stitutions to be deyoted to the purpose we
name ; but in the absence of a direct appro
priation for the ertiction_ of necessary build•
logs and Alm support of a profierfaculty to
conduct their optiratiens,- we fear that. the
benefits contemplated will long be delayed,
and that the statute, therefore will prove to
be inadequate to our case. We think more
over, that fewer than twelve would answer
our
_present necessities, and tat less than half
that number. well appointed Nertnal.Sellools
would be quite slifficieat, to accommodate
all that would be ih a sitturtion,to avail them
selves of their advantages.—lt is in no invidi
ous spirit that wtire , rnark that something more
than a Yaw, is necessary to constitute a
Normal School, I
-It is to be rega ded as a symptom favor
able to the cause o education, that, l in many
of our Academies and Select Schools 'there
are todie found departments for-Normal In
struction. They rifford a slight approxima•
tion to the Agencyfor which we plead, and
furnish the stronge st argument possible for
the absolute necess ity of the course of profes
sional study we suggest, for those who design
to teach. But none of these proceed upon.
the plan which a I gical view of the subject
suggests.. A Non tat School is an institution
iu which. the Teac ler student is made to re
view the elementary branches of study and
to prosecute the more advanced brandies, in
precisely that order and according to that
method which - is t. be employed in teaching
. _
in the common school, and which is deemed
to be in harmony ,vitli the natural expansion
and development of the intellect ; and in the
'prosecution of thin course to be enabled, also ;
to see and appreciate the true antiperfect 4 te
lation which each advance Step in the course
bears, in That whicprecedes it. So that not
only the order or studies and method of
presenting them may, be learned, but also,the
principles: upon which that order is tstablish
ed, and the propricly of- the - method which is
proposed:for their adoption'.
As we ha've frequently taken the liberty to
say, so now we affirm, that Teaching is not
only. a grave and responsible work, but ale
which - esti be performed properly, only in
obedience to the established laws of mind, and
heart. The theory of teaching will never be
the same in the minds of different individuals. I
No specific rule can be gii;on for all the op
erations of the; ichool-room in detail ; but
claiming for this Fork that it is a profound
science, we say that the principles which un
derlie all the varying 'operations of the teach
'er's, work are immutably the same. The mind
i
in ie process of development realizes at least'
three distinct mental conditious,—namely :
the perceptive, the conceptive, and the reason.'
ins, and Any tnetlod which fails to keep the
operations of the scLool within the limits pro
posed.; by these (natural progressive condi
tions, involves a Ipositive absurdity; for the
ratter condition, thoth generally removed'
from the former by the interval-of years be
tween infancy and early youth, onlyais never
theless,subject to all the circumstances at
tending the moral and intellectualpeculiari
ties of ancestry, as well as those of birth or
conditionro life 4.tul rank in society, by the
effects of which that remove is 'extremely lim
ited in one ewe, and largely extended in
another. The prUper character of teaching,
under one of these conditionseii as ill adapted
to the necessities of the pupil , under another,
as strong meat is tp the condition of infancy,
or diluted milk to `the formation of bone and
muscle for the a:in of the laboring man.
The equipment -of. the Normal School is, a
matter of no little importance-and is worthy
Of, careful consideration , . - Our,Only motive
for speaking particularly on this pant, is the
hope that through-the agency of the sentiments
that will emanate from this Association, the
community at large will be influenced to
speak and act efficiently in the right direc
tion in behalf of this item of our claim upon
them. First' of iall, there will be required a
well trained - andithoronghry competent Fac
ulty, to bd chosen from those scholars best
acquainted with the principles of mental and
moral science, and practically familiar with
the condition, wants and process of the mind
in the varrousjetages of its development.
Next will be needed the proper scientific ap
paratus indispenlablk necessary' to present to
the senses, in a more impressive , manner than
can be accomplirihed by means of lecturing,
the important truths of science.
The importance of - this object, alone, is
sufficient, we apprehend,,to enlist the best- en
deavors of aIL the friends of-education to la
bor for its ion ;- and -we think it safe
to•predicate7ort 3 4 advancement we have al
ready made, that we will, ere long, so gain
the ear and the convictions of the communi
ty in our favor, that the needed appropriation
t
will be made; a' d. an Institution, worthy of
the -name of a normal School, and of the
State Under who auspices its walls are rear
ed, will grace the roblic School 'department
of the State of 'Pennsylvania.. But let it nev
er for ', a moment. be forgotten ; that until this
hope, is realized, we must sue our work
under the most seriousAlisad pursue our.
and let
the fact of onr

knowledge, each alditioit to his folifl of iti
telligence - will also-prove -a-step upward in
tho - scale of moral existence. It is a self-
'evident truth, that the'development :of :the
1 powers of the mind, cannot be fully, or par
tially secured without direct reference to those
morel aspects of thought,Which• must in
fluence its action to a.greater or leas degree,
although- the influence referred to, marnot
be fully , recognized.. We think it needful that
this feature of the teacber'e duty should be
more- generally recognized and insisted on,
as a positive requisite in the process of teach
ing. The general fact of man's moral ac
countability is admitted, and_the duty of self
government is the inference drawn from it.
: The view we take of the subject is a much
higher, deeper, and broader one. 'Facts 'lie
but half appreoiated,_knowledge is but half
conceived,—and truth itself, is but partial
and incomplete, unless they resolve to, and
enforce upon the consciousness of the learner;
the relation they sustain • to the moral con
dition and prospects of mankind. ,
is the cultivation of the intellect, merely, the
teacher and parent may be Said to perform the
duties of that office; but in the development of
the moral character, every - member of the coni
munity performs a part of the work, or con
tributes a certain quota to the sum of influences
that make the'ruoral character or our citizens.
The miuisters of the Gospel are in a greater de
gree responsible fur thu moral character, and
consequently the usefulness of the rising gener
ation around us, than any others excepting'pa.
rents and teachers. It is truly due to this class
of our citi z ens, to admit that they do not lack
in a sincere solicitude for the proper training of
youth, especially in morals; but
. we ,hold that
the clergy have never yet. gppreciated the value
of the common schools is the soirrce of charater
to the young, else they had: enjoyeddmore of
their sympathy and aid. The common schools
of our country would long since have occupied
a higher place in the estimation . of parents and
communities at large„had -their relation to'tho
moral charcctei ofew world been appreciated,
and the persuasive roice. of the preacher been
more frequently heard in advocating a more lib.
eral provision, throughr;them, for the education
of the young.
Th religion of
- the Bible appeals to convicted
judgments. Its claims aro not unappreciable by
the unlearned, not. are its conquests confined to
the ranks of the' gifted; but the devout aspira
tions of a pious heart are never checked by the
clearer perceptions of a cultivated mind; 'nor are
the purposes of life tendered less noble and
Ipalthful to society,—the reciprocal duties of
fellow mortals less faithfully discharged by those
whose minds are raised above the mists of pre
judice, envy, superstition, and ignorance. On
the contrary, it may stately be sald,that-precepts,
, when addressed to an intelligent mind, are more
sure to command prompt assent-, and the moral
claims of a common brotherhood are most likely
to be allowed by thoao who. can most clearly
discern their common relations Ito the Father of
all. Could we but Imbue the" acquisition oftime
knowledge with the Sentiment, no less true than
mathematical- rf.ClOMS, ‘ that in prciportion - as truth
gains ascendancy over error, and the mind yields
to its conclusions, in so much only, do we mike
adVaneernent. Insincerity would lose its hold
upon mankind, and the fraud and unkindnesses
that mar the peace and beset the enterprises of
life would be anored, and mankind would strive
after universal exaltation.
In the homage paid to troth, God would' re.'
ceive the adoration dee his character and attri
bute., and mankind exchange the kindly iniufs
try of good will to men; and thnA, the law of
love would be fulfilled. . -
The ,increasing pubiic sentiment in favor of
universal education, the increased and enlarged
facilities enjoyed for securing the cultivation of
the mind and heart, shodd be regarded as among
the agencies ordained of God for the fulfillment
of his. benificent designs toward the family of
man; and the Common School should long since
have been accepted by the Sencptifiod'Sen•ants of
of the Redeemer, as a help le the great work to
be performed for God by his children on earth.
Thus, Ladies and Gettletriett, aro we to fulfill
the duties that ffe before us.
To the consuination .of the designs claimed
for this AssoCiation, let us all faithfully. deflate
our eff'erts and our influence. Let the Object
already accompi!shed by the Association,sen
*enrago us to be true to oar mission. Let the
Clergy of our land unite with mit, as far as prac
tiesble, in our endeavors to improve the cendi
tion.of our common schools, in which the great
mass of the people are educated ; and in harmo
ny with every helping hand, looking to the best
interests of mankind on earth, and the still high
er destiny of the Spirits if mankindin the world
to come, let us manfully, ceaselessly strive.
