It may be the duty of all the people, united in a government, to enact such laws as will secure to all its individual members reasonable opportunities for acquiring an education education being justly regarded as one of the pillars of a Republic; but when it is attempted to force people to do things in tln ir families, an element is introduced which does not constitute any part of free Government an element which will be found to be of a most dangerous character, liable to huge abuses, and calculated to stir up the very worst feelings of human nature. Such measures, fraught with future evil, however well intentioned the movers may be, should not be encouraged by those who have the principle of the greatest good-to the greatest number, as their political rule of life. If the country has been sunk so low, by Eadical misrule, as to need compulsory education, the sooner the Democracy resumes the reins of gov ernment, the betterforall the people. Xo compulsory education for Ameri cans.

TUEFALSK VEliT STATE-MEXTS. The February statement of the pub lic debt would have shown an increase of if warrants for payment of equal sums bad not been kept back. These will have to be iaid in ten days. The government is no gainer, but tfie showing for the Administration is better. While this system of doctor ing the public debt may serve the pur- lose of deceiving the public, it is all the worse for the finances of the country.

The Tribune concludes that the Treasury is about empty, and in a much worse condition than it was a year ago. It is rather dillicult to un derstand why is this the case, if we ac cept the pretensionsof reduced expenditures set up by the Administration. If we take the eriod since June 30, we Cud some remarkable fluctuations in the surplus revenues of the Government. Comparing ieriods of six months each we have the follow. ing results: lf72 to aurplus.

li to June. tl.o.'l aurl ia. to il. ti. it.

toJuu-. Nurplm. is. 1 June to nurplii. If the debt was reduced 000 from January to November as claimed, where is the necessity for au increase of taxes, and why such a small surplus? Why is the debt increased at the rate of since theXov- vemlier election if there has been a re duction of $30, in expenditures and all the old sources of revenue exist, and new have been created? We are strongly inclined to think that there is a jrreat dtal of rottenness in the nianatrrtm-iit of the finances of the nation.

and thev have been managed with a view of controlling elections. Of course the ieotie will have to suf fer from the results. KAF1XE. liLOOD AXD FlllE. The card of the leading colored in dividuals, to which we called atten tion yesterday, is likely to stir up a de cided feeling throughout the country.

TheX. Y. Tribune referring to it says: If this weans anything it means that in the evmit of the failure of Congress to pasa tha Civil Kihts bill, the colored (eople in tha South would be justified in rising against tha while whom they are unable to defeat at the billot-box and iu aTenging their wrongs by tire, sword, and giving free reina to the wort paiwions of man. It ia at om-e a threat of vengeance and au in vitation to Tioleme. Aa a threat it will be of courn utterly inenective, for na nierulxr of I'onnrem who ia opiwsed to the Civil nights bill would be thus brougm to Is supiMirt.

As au invitation to in. eu- diarUiu, murder, and rapine, it is entirely within the range of probability ttiat it will tall upon ears um eaer lor sucb advice, and influence minds too willing to carry it into execution. I he inaaa ot the colored people in the rural districts of the South are ignoraut. Their devotion to party is more binding upou their consciences than their religion. All accounts agree that they follow their political leader blindly and to any extent.

To such men the words we have quoted will be read iu cabin, church ind league-ball, where the utterances ot 1 ong aMi aud Ltugslon, or 1'iuchltack and Kapn-r, are as law aud gospel. The argu ment is as plaiu aa language can make it; if the Civil Kigbt bill is uot passed, only three roads are open to their race: a hypo critical neutrality between the existing parties, au alliance with the Democrats, or tha assertion of their rights by the rorst kiud of revolution. The first aud second roads are condemned; the third is dwelt upon with no word of objection, aud the addresa causes with au appeal for legis lation to avert this catastropne. TOO MUCH KIXDXESS. The Chicago Tribune, Graut's par ticular organ, thinks the Republican party has given itself away by over in dulgence to the colored population.

It says: Tha truth ia that the Kcpublican party has provided amply for tb protection of the uegroea in the exercise of their politi cal rights; and, if it had erred at all, it lias erred la kindness to theuegroes. 3UXOK XOTES.

two weeks ago the laat te announced the re-election of MaU. Carpenter to the I'nitt States Senate front Wisconsin. Hut the liazette 1 a very unreliable authority on Centennials and Senatorial elections. Mr. Carpenter, Iuitenl of being re-elected.

Was yesterday defeated by Mr. Angu-Caiueron, upon whom the IVmocrats and men united. And now Mr. Carpenter retires to the shades that await the whole gang of lUdical leaders. This is-a rebuke to Grant's Administration, that ought to kuock a little sense into his head.

Wherever the people have a chance they smite the Radical leaders with a heavy hand. Chandler, Thayer, Carpenter, yet the work of slaughter goea ateadily on. There is sorrow in the White House and well there may be. We are just at the beginning of the end. Will the Ring papers wail this morning over Carpenter's defeat, or will they turn and kick their broken idol? Thk Republican Journals seem much concerned about the rights of the tuluoiity in HairUburg, but have no compassion for the minority in Congress.

In regard to the ruling of Speaker Patterson in the case of Mr Wolfe, having all the facts before us, we believe the Speaker was right He has been sustained by the House which rould not be if he had acted in an arbitrary or an unfair manner Mr. Patterson lacks experience and is perhaps wanting iu gravity of man ner usually termed dignity, but the effort of the opposition to take advantage of the Chair, is In contrast with the marked Indulgence on the part of the I)em ocratlc minority of last year under the rulings of Speaker McCormick. The stand taken by Mr. Wolfe, would, if sustained, destroy authority and pre cipitate pprsonal collisions, which would be lamentable. We are sorry bad blood has been engendered at this early stage of the seysion.

and hope the efforts of cool headed men in both parties will result in establishicg more friendly state of affairs. The peoplo demand attention to the busi nesa which sent the members to liar rlsburg, and don't want to hear of any more nonsense. A DECIDED FLUTTER. The dispatches from Washington say that the New York Sun's exposure ot the great Memphis and El Paso swindle, has created quite a flutter among Congressmen as well as ex-members of that body. The World' social correspondent gives a concise statement of the.

original swindle and says that It has been well known in Washington for a long time that the stock and bonds of this fraudulent corporation hail found their way into the possession of members of tha Forty-Hrst Congress. A bill to incor. porate the Memphis and El Paso Kail-road passed the house of Representatives in 160, aud was pending la the Seuate when Congress adjourned that year. During the ronowing year ueu. eral Fremont and his friends there heredistributlng freely what purported to be ttie stock and bonds of this cor poration which never could have any value unless Congress should pass the bill and give the company the land grant for which they asked.

It was luMar.IiMO just after the adjourn ment of Cougress, that i rentout and his friends put their fraudulent secur- itles afloat on the Paris Uourse, and received subscriptions to the amount of iuron lloileau, Fre nwnt'a brother-in-law, died in prison th crime, and Fremont himself risk thu same fate should he ever reappear In France. In 1870 the Memphis and El was in such bad odor that It was impossible to get the bill through. A new eouipany. nanied the Trans-Continental was and chartered, and finally the Interest, were merged luto the Texas and PaclOc Company. Had the original programme teen carried out in regard to tha El luo road, it would have exceeded in boldness and extent any similar wlndle ever attempted iu this or any Chicago Tribune.

We have received some circulars from the "Anti-Crisis of Philadelphia- Very noteworthy things they are. The League declares that our foreign debt, owed bv the nation, the States, cor porations, is somewhere between and $2,000,000,000. The interest on this debt is alleged to be from S72.0O0.0O0 to 5120.000.000. We must, there fore, export this amount of specie- every year to pay interest alane. Nor is this all.

We have "boucht. annually, during the lastelven years, on an average, worm more auercuauuise luu This surplus must be paid for with gold There is a necessary demand," says the Anti-Crisis circular "for from $172,000,000 ts $220,000,000, with an annnal production ot only about $00,000,000 of coin and bul lion." Our annnal rod act of specie is some what greater than the figures given, but the ditt'erence does no affect the substan tial accuracy of the argument. The "Ami Crisis League" is quite right. During eleven years, that is, during the time since a bieh tariQ not into full operation, we have been steadily piling up our for eign debt, until now our interest payments to KurojMj rar exceed our annual product of iecie. Pennsylvania has had the tariff raised nearly a dozen times since 1H61.

Her boasted theory of "Protection" has bad a fair and a long trial. Now comes the confession from Philadelphia, the headquarters of "Protection," that while the tann, which was to make us rich and independent of all other nations, has been in existence. our dependence on foreign nations has constantly increased! What, indeed, has the high tariff dona for Pennsylvania? Her furnace are blown out, her factories are idle, her mines are abandoned; Tom Scott declares, in his printed plea for a subsidy, that ha ordered iron from a num ber of Pennsylvania works simply to give them a chauce to employ their men; and the whole State groans and wails over the depression of her business and prays the National Government for help. Let the condition ot things in Pennsylvania to-day answer the question, "io es Protection protect?" SE A VKUTISEMKA'TS. FIRST iMTIOML B1VK or riTTSBCaXaial, CDIIEE fDTE m.

Min ister to England is mixed up in it, and rumcr has it that if investigations are pushed, Mr. Lincoln's panegyrist, Schuyler Colfax, whoon Tuesday night undertook to teach political morality to the young men of Pittsburgh, will be found mixed up with it as badly as any of the rest of them.

Itha disgraceful fart, now estab lished beyond controversy, that the Thirty-ninth, Fortieth, Forty-first, Forty-secoud and Forty-third Congresses in which the Radicals had from two-thirds to three-fourths ma jority, were the most corrupt legislative bod ies that ever assembled in this country, not even excepting the car pet-bag Legislatures of the Southern States. Scarcely one of their acts can be touched that is not permeated with the odor of the foulest corruption. The outlook for the country is un favorable. We are told that the Treasury is really bankrupt, and that at least of government obligations are in danger of going to protest in the next six months; that there is no money available to pay the Ss.ooo,. 000 of pensions falling due in March, or the semi-annual interest on the bonds falling due a few months later.

That with the high rate of taxation already imposed, and the additions being made, the government is in danger of defaulting and being thrown into bankruptcy. All this is. directly traceable to the plundering legiila tion of Congress since 1S. The overwhelming Radical majority cared nothing for the public interests but used the government for private gain Men went to Congress as poor as the proverbial church mouse, and retired millionaires at the end of two or three sessions. The means by which they grew rich are now becoming apparent, but even in the face of them, the two-thirds majority of the Forty third Congress have resorted to the irag-rule to rush through still other plundering jobs, so as to make good their bribed promises to the lobby.

fhis is a sad picture for the contetu plition of the American people, but they had as well face the ugly fact boldly. The government is in the hands of nothing less than a band of public robbers, insanely anxious to steal up to the lost moment of their political existence. COMF ED L'CA TIOX. The power of administering govern ment in the interest of compulsory education, is sought after by certain parties for the purpose of extending their political Influence, and of promoting the centralization idea of government, upon the plea ot benevolent ly interfering in the family relations for the protection aud education of the poor children. It is a good and most commendable deed for any iudi vidual, who is able, to contribute by his means or bis time to ameliorate the sad condition of the poor, whether children or adults; but it is a grave question, open to calm discussion, how far in this direction it may be proper or advisable for the State to proceed.

There are doubtless good men who are mre or less favorably inclined to ward the idea of compulsory ed (id eation for the poor; men who are not seeking political advantage, and who have not perhaps fully considered the bearings and effect of such a system in our democratic Government. There is nothing more dangerous to the per manency of free institutions, under the American Government, than the taking away of power inherent in the people and transferring it to its agents, II should be done only after the most careful consideration. There are somo matters in connection with popular education, as couducted in the old country, in some of the Europeau Monarchies, which may be advantage ously copied by our people, but it is more tlmn questionable whether com sulsory education, in any form, can be undertaken without serious injury to the integrity of popular govern ment. If the men who administer popular government were perfect, or even always moderately good men, such an experiment would be safer than it is likely to be under the ordinary run of officers in most of our cities, Compulsory religion, was at one time deemed to be beneficial to the human family. It would not be so now.

In infancy, in the family, obe dience being a necessary ingredient in every well ordered household, chil dren must be subject to their parents, in religious, as well as other matters; but whenever the States steps In to regulate the religion of a family, it must be under some other form of government than ours. Ours is truly a democratic, and not a paternal gov ernment, or a centralized government, with alt power, merely doleing out a portiou to its people. Ours is a Government In which the power resides in tha people; ud only so much as they may choos to delegate goes into the hands of elected representatives. Herice tha absolute necessity of a Const it ut ion and hence an equal necessit construction va oower BhouM by atraintHl Constitution be I taken from tha peiVla UJ(Jj I temporary delegate lu behitlf of ful measures, or because it seem For a ieople like ours, the worst possible Government would be that on which all power should rest iu the hands of one man. to that, as a national evil, would be similar power vested in the bands ot an oli garchy, having suflicient skill and cunning to perpetuate it.

Under either of these, compulsory education might flourish, pan itsu with other tyrannical measures. In a Republi can government in which the will of the majority la the law of the land, the will of the majority must of course ultimately rule; but when by a Ioug teries of cunniu? usurpations the teal will of the people has been mis. construed, despised, and defled, as it tor some years by the party in iower, time to nause and re fleet, e.cilly wi.n a measure like iwAmiiimmmimM 203 Litsrly strrsL OF FILL 1D lTC GOODS, JUST AKIUVAD AT EEHBTfi. mm, Penn Avenne Sixth Street 1V IV FAK.Ii GOODS rOB GE3fTLESE'S WEAK, Just Opened A Fine ClcHii Oners ani Yestiiia AT LOW PBICES.
