Compulsory Education ou of the slough in

sound fhfs-shing that Ring William with bis
ronsolid ited O.-rman army administered tu
strangling and dismembered France.
Our "A Poor Man Friend haa not dis
crimination enough ti that France wis
divided by contending factions. There
liu intra; rily ot purpose among them. They
(ad no high moral r.hj.-ct io view, sorb aa
'ho unity of the n.itjou T people; whit
they anted was Napoleon, none other
nan, or the ('immune. Th-y are morally
diseased rotten and that is what tlicir
TT.broa is att.-ilint aide to, and not to the
want of Compulsory Education.
It sounds harshly on the American mind
to hear a man advocate a monarchical policy
of govi-rnmetit for this country. Will "A
I'oor Man' tell how much hotter the people
of King Willam's government are, and bow
much better they live than the people of
these United Mate t Will he tell that
that pcojile never elect their chief rnlera 1
Will be tell that the chief ruler are born
chief rulers, and die cbiel ruler, unle
some born ruler dethrone them and aits
himself in their place or puts another
liiood'sl noble to govern Will bo tell
that ail the onVer, from the throne
down, are a much nnder the government
of the King, as are his own hands ami fin-g-rs,
and that they are all blooded prople,
and that a poor man has not a shadow of a
chance for oOice or little else tbao a lite of
hard scrabble to obtain a living f It the
Retutrr man is correct in bis premises,
1'russU fhonld be a poor uuiu's Paradise.
We have never heard It called by that name.
I'rrhas be ctpects to b-lt us in a future ar
ticle that it is A Poor Man's " Paradise,
and that lie iruiuea to make it hi- future
home. If surh is his resolve, we must in
form him before we take him by the haud
to say good-hy" lor then it would be
rlisconrtesy to tell bim that we are glad to
aee him go, that here in this free conutry
be is Lot iu bis proper place, that be is like
a Hsh out of water, gaping for something he
will never get that he is going to a conn
try that has a system of government con
genial to bis tastes and idea or govern
ment, lluw happy be will be when he gets
to Germany, and just to think how near be
will be to hi French friend; with no
passport requirement he can goto Pari and
dicu to bis heart's content on the ques
tion ol the causes that lead to the defeat of
the French people in the late war. We
almost feel happy to realize how bappy he
w ill be w hen he has left this country, whose
free people tolerate no arbitrary or compul
sory laws, further than are necessary for
the sappreMou of actual crime. If Com
pulsory Education is the thorough system
and works the good that its advocate say
it do:, why bar tt not enlarged the rights
of the citizens of Germany f Why has it
allowed the breaking up of the Sute gov
ernment and their coimolidation into one
iwerfal empire that is ruled by a dynasty
a family that haa governed Prussia hun
dreds of years. If Compnlsory Education
argtti's anything in that country, it argues
iu favor of the promotion ol Kingly gov
crnment, for Prussia has thriven aud been
extended under it more rapidly since its
adoption than at any tine before.
"A Poor Mn" be should call himself
'A Koyal Subject" say he haa shown
bow the rare has bvea elevated by Com
pulsory Education. When and where did
be how it 1 bnch declarations mast be the
-munation of the imperfect shades of drcatn
Lind. All his showings have been against
li:ins-lf. Ite has saij a good deal about
J'rusMa and France, and a word or two
wlxnit Sew York, where the system has but
iiite recently been put iuto practice, and
lias already la-en prom. Hik ed a (allure. The
VroatU of arbitrary power is usually stow
when thi.-re i a public sentiment against it.
This government is bounded on a basis di
rectly Msed to arbitrary power, and the
gly defcirnied svstem 'A arbitrary rule that
underlie Compulsory Education, la the na
ture f things otie would believe would be
iow to assert itself in this coatitry. Such,
"however, is l ot the case. In New York it
has been quhfc to man it est itself by enter
ing the family without summons or writ,
auid taking children asy to jail for sot
attending school. Like the fsbled snake
that w as almost deadened by being out in
the cold, when takes into the warm by a
kind and mistaken and over good hearted
man, struck its fangs at its bcueiactor, the
arbitrary feature in Compulsory Education
in Ke Turk has already shown itself.
Colonel Mc (.lure's Tm.it of last Friday
writes, in regard to it, thus :
"Mew York is testing her compulsory
educatiou act, and though opinions duTer as
to it workings from the weight of the
evidence it is plain that the uuuure baa
not come up to the hojies ami expectation
ot it projectors and upporfrs. The Su
pcriulendcnt of Truancy recently arrested
a buy in New York and bad him committed
to prison under the compulsory school act.
The father o, the Ud took out a writ of
haben corpus to try tticoiis.'itulionality of
the law. The atipcrmtendeut would not
laHx'l t h- Uc-tiou. They released the lad,
and there the cae endi-d. That hoy will

swm than no law at all. lue eorie ol
this conujry nave never clearly manifested
their approbation tt this oompulsory dan,
and legislators should ponder the matter
well before they lorce It upon the educa
Jjoual system of any P'rt of the nation."

"i?rrrr, That the attempt ol the Dem

our patriotic Ptesident df sircs or seeks a
re-clnrtion for a third term is an absurd de
vice to disrupt the Krpuhlican party and
produce a division between it and the Pres

and cannot niUleart the people, of the coun

which came so near destroying the Union

Miners in the Clearfield coal region
have been on a atrike. Tbe operators
hired other men and took them iuto
that county on the llth inst. A des
patch on tbe 12th inst., tells in tbe
following language bow the new men
wete received : Tbe force of men who
left here yesterday morning with Fish
er and U bitebead succeeded in remov
ing tbe blockade and reaching their
destination. John Siney, of the an
thracite region, was addressing a mass
meeting of miners when it was announ
ced that three car loads of blacklegs
had arrived and the meeting broke np
in confusion, and about nine hundred
men ani women, armed and equipped,
repaired to Fisher's and Whitehead's
mines. They were met by Fisher and
Whitehead, who forbid them to come
upon their property. Tbe mob halted
and sent a delegate in tbe person of
John Siney to confer with Fisher and
Whitehead. He said it was a peacea
ble strike and asked tbat a committee
might go to the men and try and in
duce them to leave the region. This
request was granted, and the committee
passed on to tbe mines to coufer with
tbe men, but failed to induce a single
mia j0 return
A second committee
was Be tit in, but succeeded uo better.
Not one would consent to return. One
man suggested to shoot Mr. Fisber if
he stood in the way The mob then
fell back and consulted, and findiug
tbat the blackleg could not be persua
ded under imprudeut advice, tbey made
a wild and fuiious charge, sweeping
over M r. Fiaher and bis party. Men
and women brandisbiug clubs forcibly
entered bouses, some of Fisher's men
were seised and dragged out, their bag
gage was thrown from the windows,
aud tbe doors were broken down, and
provisions and valuables appropriated.
Tbe men who have been working in the
mines for weeks were taken out and all
marched by the mob towards Tyrone.
Tbey marched all night. Fisber and
Whitehead arrived at Osceola about
miduigbt, and came to Tyrone on an
early train. Tbe strikers have become
wild and ungovernable, and say tbat all
new men must and shall leave the re
gion. If tbe men bad refused blood
would have been shed freely. Tbe
sheriff bad proposed to be in attend
ance to protect the new men, but ow
ing to some cause, not fully explained,
be did not come. The success of the
mob for the past two days threatens a
total suspension of business. They
propose to elean out every bank opera
ted. It is hoped that tbe State au
thorities will take some steps to pro
tect the lives and property of our citi
zens. John Siney, president Miners' Na
tional Association, was arrested on tbe
13th inst., in Osceola, Pa., on oath of
Capt. Clarke, charged with conspiracy.
On tbat day in an address he said that
if Capt. T. E. Clark, of the poliee
force, received any injury the miners
would not be to blame. It would be
the fault of the persons who sent him
there. He also said there were times
when persons were justified io violating
the law, and tbat tbe person, who eame j
there now seeking to take tbe places of
those out on a strike were robbing the
children and women of their bread, and
should be treated accordingly. Siuey
I then sent this infuriated erowd op to

A Wilkesbarre despatch of the llth

women and boys followed them with j
threats aod imprecations, aod were on-1
