lagg..Guv. Geary in his proclamation di
recting the closing of all the Departments of
the - State Government on the feneral
sion of 'the lion. Thaddeus Stevens, says :
"The people of Pennsylvania owe to the
enlarged statesmanship of Thaddeus Stevens
foe initiation`of a system of public improve
ments which has since developed the vast re
sources of the State, and rendered its pros•
perity a subject of wonder and admiration.
To his wisdom and liberality we are indebted
foi• our present magtt_:l3, t system of Free
School Education, by which the children of
the poor are enabled to reach a degree of
cultivation beyond which the wealthiest and
most favored of other lands eanPot go. , As
a member of the convention which revised
and amended the State Constitution—as a
representative in the lower branch Of the
Legislature— and as a Canal Commissioner,
the lave Thaddeus Stevens displayed the game
great abilities which distinguished him as a
jurist in the highest courts, and as a leader
in the councils of the nation.
61, says the Tribune, but sent two thirds of
her fighting men into the Rebel armies. She
maintained Slavery with fatal persistence of
ter it had been abolished everywhere else, and
still maintains tale "White Man's Govern
ment" in her State udatinistration. Blacks
have no rights in that State which White
men are bound to respect. The so-called
Unionists, led by the Louisville Journal,
have pursued the timid conservative -policy
of trying to placate the Rebels, until they
have lost all power and influence, except so
far as they have become Rebels in spirit
themselves. The Klu Klux Klan rules; the
friends of the Union and equal rights have
barely the nucleus of a party, which seems
rapidly mel'ing away, and will wholly disap
pear unless•univertial suffrage soon becomes
the law of the State. The spirit of Slavery
and the Rebellion nominates every candidate
foi office, nod elects him. The spirit `of Re
bellion and Slavety.bas just carried the State
by 99' 1 000 majority. The State has not a
tithe.of the legality which is to be foiled in
- South Carolina. If there are any faint—
hearted o e weak-kneed Republicans who
doubt the expediency of impartial suffrage,
we beg them to . compare Kentucky, which
did nut secede, with South Carplion, which
was the foremost to leap into the Rebell—
about again—tbe dap - with the 'big feet.'

UrSoon after the adjournment of Con
gress requisitions were received at the War
Department from the Governors of several
of the lately reconstructed States for_arms to
equip the State militia. It seemed to be un
derstood that the arms could be furnished
by the Secretary of War under the provis-
ion of an act of Congress passed in 1796;
but Secretor Schofield has re li , b •

arms can be issued to the militia under the

necessary before arms can be furnished.

THE DIFFERENCE.—Down South when a

public meeting, the Reconstructed Rebels
either break his head, or shoot him dead_on

breeding by hissing and yelling at Gen. Sic
kles, and cheering for Wilkes Booth, nobody
molested them. This is the difference be

liberality.

SYSTEM OF INSTRUCTION, die.
The system of instruction is principally the Pos.
talozzian. This system, which deserves to be call
ed that of reason and common sense, has been tried
and proved in over a half century's practice in the
reformed schools of Germany and Switzerland, and
of late, in the best schools of this country, and is
the only one that will make clear and vieorons
thinkers, instead of •`mere parrots" Pupils are
neither required nor permitted merely to commit
text-books to memory ; on the contrary, they are
taught to study understandingly, which makes lear
ning n plc-sure lather than an uksome task.
The Principal will spere no pains to make this
Institution one of the best in the country. lie has
had single opportunities fht — lTarning what consti
tutes a good school. Besides having had more than
ten years' actual experience in teaching, he has
visited a large number of the hest schools of the
country, especially of New E ngla and - a leo made
himself acquainted vsith the best European systems
of instruction. •
Positive Prof. C. V, Wilson. who is already fa•
vorably known as a teacher, the Principal will be
assisted by one or twoexperiencett females.
• GOVERNMENT AND DISCIPLINE
The government is mild and parental, Appealing
to the pupils' reason and eel se of right and propri
ety; yet, obedience and good behavior arc strictly
required.
