IIOMAX CATHOLICS AKD PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.
We invite the attention of our read
era to the following able article from
the New York Nation or April 1 :
Negotiations are pending in thia
city-between a Cathollo committee,
acting for the parochial schools of the
church, and a committee of the board
of education, over a proposal, on the
part of the former, to have the Catho
lic schools placed under the Board,
and made part of the common-school
system, "subject to its laws as regards
tbo course of instruction, the meth
ods of discipline, and the general
management," on "6uch terms as
may be agreed upon.1' The only
terms the Catholic committee can of
fer, include, necessarily, the reserva
tion to the Catholic clergy of the vir
tual management of the schools by
the selection of the teachers, and the
giving of religious instruction as part
of the regular school course. If they
were not going to insist on these
things there would be nothing to ne
gotiate about, and all they would
have to do to get "their schools into
the common-school system would bo
to liaiiil thexrt over to tho board . Tlio
proposed compromise) lias, It Is enld,
been adopted in. other cities, "with
success," though in what cities we do
not know, nor do we know what suc
cess con mean except the satisfaction
of Catholio claims. People who sup
pose the satisfaction of these claims
can mean anything short of the des
truction of the common-school system
deceive themselves. They must rem

A Ban Francisco paper decribes the
bold exploits of California highway
men Ou the 16th ult. two robbers
stopped a stage which was loaded
with travelers. The victims stepped
from the stage one at a tinier, prompt
ly, in obedience to orders, and in de
tail were relieved of their mouey.and
jewelry. There was no resistance,
and no one suffered bodily harm. The
treasure of Wells, Fargo & Co., being
in a strong iron safe, fastened in the
ooach, was not taken.
The Marysville Appeal tells how a
stage was robbed by only one of those
gentlemen of the brush. On the mor
ning of the 14th of April, says that pa
per, about ten o'clock, the Downie
vllle stage, en route for Marysville,
was stopped while ascending the Ore
gon Hili grade, by a single highway
man and a double-barreled shot-gun,
and robbed of Wells, Fargo & Co.'s
treasure box, containing$3.G00 in gold
dust, a gold bar valued at $1,700, and
about $200 in 6mall packages. The lo
cality of the robbery is a favorable one
as the stage horses ascend this grade
at a slow walk, and the upper side is
a beautiful grove of mountaiu spruce.
From this retreat masked man, with
out coat or boots, stepped suddenly off
the sharp embankment, and, leveling
his double-barreled shot-gun at the
head ofJohuay Shaip, the driver, or
dered him to stop and throw out tlio
troHtsure oox. "Throw it cut T d
quiek," said the highwayman, "as
I'm in a hurry." Johnny coolly res
ponded : "Don't hurry ; you'll get it
presently."
The robber kept his weapon bearing
on the head of the driver during this
exciting conversation,"whiIe passen

ember, first of all, that after wo bave-Re wel, aiucjpoled were not resting
given the priests the control of Cath
olio schools, we shall have only given
them a part of what they conceive to
bo their due. They hold themselves
entitled as of right, and solemnly pro
claim it, to the control of the educa
tion of children of all denominations
In every country. Their willingness
now to share It with the Protestants
in this country is simply u concession
to the force of circumstances, which
u no way releases them from the ob-
igation of extending the-limits of
their jurisdiction by every means In
their power; and it behooves those
who negotiate with either cardinal,
archbishop, or vicar-general, to rem
ember that they negotiate with a per
son who cannot bind himself on sub
jects of this sort by human conven
tions. A secret order from Home may
any day relieve him from any stipula
tion whatever which may seem prej
udicial to the interests of the church,
In the second place, it is folly to
suppose that after the Catholics have
been allowed to withdraw their share
of the school tax from the common
fund, or, whioh Is the same thing
been allowed to place their own
schools under theBoard of Education,
other denominations will long remain
satisfied with the present system ; all
religious denominations would like to
educate their own children in their
own way.Jf they could get the State
toraise funds for them by taxation.
Episcopalians and Methodists and
Baptists support the common sohools,
not as a perfect system, but as the best
attainable system ; but a large portion
of its efficiency and the whole of its
justice would be gone If it was modi
lied to meet the requirements of one
religious sect. Moreover and here Ib
a consideration which the people of
the country must face sooner or later,
ond they may as well begin to face it
now the education given or superin
tended by Cathollo priests is a bad ed
ucation ; Indeed, for political purpos
es,worso than none. It unfits child
ren for the citizenship of free Slates.
If extended widely enough, it would
ruin this Government. It has been
tried for ages in various countries, and
has-always worked unutterable mis
chief, and destroyed the sources of na
tional greatness by killing the sincer
ity, the truthfulness, the courage and
high-mindodness on which national
greatness is based. The thoughtful
and patriotic men of all Catholic
oountries are to-day getting rid of this
national curee. And it would bo an
astounding spectacle if, after the
priests had beeu excluded from the
work of publio instruction in France,
Spain, Italy, and Bavaria, they were
to bo allowed to carry it on here with
taxes voted by American citizens.
Compromise with these men has, in
short, never succeeded, aud never
will. The only thing that does suc
ceed with them is their rigorous sub
jection to the common law.
under the most pleasautstateof mind.
There were ten passengers aboard the
stage four females and six males.
None of the passengers were armed,
but they were not molested ; the rob
ber letting the treasure box suffice for
the time to gratify his cupidity.
WAIOTHIMJISJ TIME.
The New York Times suggests that
"the Pope's American friends, if they
are wise, will warn the Holy Father
against becoming an immigrant to
this oountry. In the antique seclusion
of the Vatican he is a spiritual poten
tate, a successor of St. Peter, and an
infallible soverign of the- church.
Here he would have to pay a poll-tax,
give his name to the street directory
compilers, bo Interviewed by report
ers, read the Beeoher trial, and hor
rible thought possibly bo a defend
ant In legal proceedings himself.
What sanctity, divinity, or Infallibil
ity could hold out against such level
ing influences as these ? Tfiink of the
Pope receiving propo6als from an A
merican lecture bureau, or negleoting
to have hfs sidewalk cleaned, or.being
nominated for Congress, or riding In
a street car. His Holiness will shun
the disillusion which awaits him
here.
At Nashville, Tennessee, on the
30th", ult., Robert Frazer. a policeman,
was shot and killed by a negro named
Joe Reed. The latter, was whipping
his wife when he shot the policeman
for interfering. The following dis
patch tells what became of the negro :
The excitement over the killing of
police officer Frazer by Joe Reed, col
ored, to-day grew more and more in
tense during the afternoon, and cul
minated at half-past eight o'clock in
a large and excited crowd gathering
In front of the jail demanding tlio
keys from Jailer Heuson, who refused
to give them up. They immediately
attaoked the buildiug, forced an en
trance, and at 10:30, after foroingopen
four heavy iron doors, succeeded in
reaching the cell in which the negro
was confined, the door of which was
soon broken open. Reed was seized
and a rope fastened around his "heck
and hurried to the suspension bridge
from which he was thrown, with the
intention of hanging, but the rope
breaking, he fell to the rookB beneath,
a distance of ninety feet, and from
thence into the river.
Hon. Henry M. Adkinson, of Ne
braska, the new United States com
missioner of pensions, has arrived at
Washington and will immediately en
ter upon his official duties, whioh, by
the multitude of new applications for
Increase of pensions under the pen
sion law of 1864, cannot fail to be ex
tremely ouerous. Mr. Adkinson is a
young man of energy and industry,
and will no doubt shoulder his official
burden and carry It like n good pub

At. Wilkesbarre, P.O., on the 30th
ult.,coustablo M. Casey went to the
country to levy on the goods of one
Jas. Connell. Being resisted, the of
ficer returned to town for assistance
and police officer Reibseiner went
with him to the Connell place, where
they found ten or a dozen of the Con
nell connection barricaded within the
house. As tlio officers approached
they were fired upon from the house
and both of them hit. Reibseiner
was mortally wounded. Casey re
ceived 14 buckshot into his body, but
may recover. The Sheriff then col
lected a large posso of men, and after
a desperate fight and many shots be
ing fired without any one being ser
iously hurt, the Connell crowd were
overpowered and nrrested and two
Conuell boys who shot the officers,
were lodged In jail.
Editor Nebraska Advertiser.
By your permission I will give a
brief description of Blooming, and my
visit there. My object was to plant
forest trees -mi a timber culture claim
in Franklin county. I shipped my
trees from Brownviiie direct .to my
claim, eight miles north of Blooming
tou, and planted some 14,400 cotton
woods on thirty-two acres of ground.
This I did on the third Wednesday
of Apiil, or "arbor day.
After finishing tree planting I made
a short visit to Bloomington, where I
was met by many friends and ac
quaintances, and was very agreeably
surprised in finding so handsome a
village of only one year's growth.
The east side of the public square Is
entirely built up, and business houses
are scattered on the other three sides.
The buildings are of a be'tter class
than I expeoted to find ; and the ho
tel is as good, if not the best, In the
Republican valley, and is In the care
of the well known and popular hotel
keeper, Jud. RIchj esq.
The land office is a very neat build
ing, ond the stores are generally one
story buildings, fronting IS or 20 feet
on the public square, and are from 40
to GO feet deep, with square fronts,
nicclypaiuled, and with signs of the
various business hanging In front in
real city fashion. The dwelling hous
es are fully equal in 6izo and appear
ance with the business houses.
The site Is high and dry, and the
publio square is just rounding enough
for the water to run off in all direc
tions. The town has a commanding
view of the surrounding country.,
The scenery around Bloomington, es
pecially on the southside of the Re
publican river, is grand.
Ic looked like old times to see Evau
Worthing, Geo. Dorsey, Mailes, Van
cil, Jud. Rich, and our old friend
Capt. Presson, formerly of Tecumseh.
Everybody appeared to bo happy,
with the exceptions of slight dread of
grasshoppers and drouth, but hope
was lifting them above all that.
A State road was being located from
Kearney Junction to Bloomington,
and a bridge is under contract to be
built across the Republican.
I was informed that 150 families of
Germans were locating in town 14,
twelve miles north of Bloomington.
A colony of Sweeds have just bought
twenty thousand acres of the U. P.
lands between the German settlement
and Kearney Junction.
So you see that oountry Is fast set
tling up. The hundreds of tree claims
scattered over that beautiful prairie,
forty miles across from Kearney to
Bloomington, and how far the other
way I cannot tell, with forty acre
groves on each section of land, will
mnlto it the hajidsoraestcou.ntry In
tbo United States.

The'New York Bulletin takes up the
advice of Horace Greeley where ho
loft It, find expresses the opinion that
the wisest thing the unemployed, who
now throng our great cities, can do is
to "Go West." It is rich in the ele
ments of extensive and permanent
wealth. Land is still cheap there,
ond a cordial welcome will greet ev
ery man who is willing to work, aud
who goes there to make himself a
home. We think the Bulletin is right
in its advice. The Central West as
well as the Far West is by no means
crowded. Thpre Is room in Iowa,
Missouri and Kansas. Minnesota, Ne
braska, Wisconsin, Dakotn aud even
Illinois, with its great population and
noble development, for ruany moro
people, provided they are industrious
and earnest workers. The great
West must still becqme grenter Its
agricultural, mineral aud manufactur
ing capacity ore still far from being
fully developed. "Go West" then,
and go determined to work and win.
The above, from the Albany (N. Y.)
Journal, Is sensible advice. The west
still presents as many advantages to
the immigrant ns it did when thou
sands dally flocked to our State. We
do not pretend to say that Kansas will
make a man rich, but we do think
that if n man comes determined to
make himself wealthy, that no better
place to settle can be found In the
Union. Leavenworth Times.
THE FAMILY HAMMER.
Some time ago a lady we know missed the family
hammer. Nobody lost it. Somebody had it at the
barn fixing the hen-house, and 3t was seen no more.
She grieved over that hammer, for it was very dear to
her. It was an heir-loom, and she never used it with
out thinking of the patient, paternal, faithful hand in
which it had done so much and so excellent service.
The wrist has been parted a long time from the hand
that wielded the lost hammer, but his work remains.
The handle was of seasoned hickory, polished with
service, compact as horn, smooth as ivory, and the
head was poised with absolute perfection on the han
dle. It didn't seem very heavy, but it always sent the
nail right home. To her the hammer was a type of
the character of the man that had used it so long.
Years of steadfast resistance to evil had thoroughly
seasoned him in virtue, contact with all classes of so
ciety had polished his manners, and the opinions he
expressed, the convictions he uttered', were sent 'home'
by a consistency of Christian life that was beyond
cavil. But a substitute she must have, for what is
home without a hammer? Pickets must be nailed on
every now and then, carpets tacked down, nuts cracked,
and a thousand other things .done that will suggest
themselves at once to every practical mind, which ren
der a hammer perfectly indispensable. So she went
into a hardware store in New-York and called for the
best hammer the merchant had. It was a good one
he handed her to examine ; she fell in love with it at
first sight. The long, smooth hickory handle shone
like ivory, and the effective-looking head was fastened
on in a manner so strong that you felt sure at a glance
that "all the king's men," as the old riddle has it, could
never, never draw them apart. Here was a hammer
that would last for generations, if it didn't get lost. So
she paid a dollar for it, and came home delighted with
her new possession. The other night, in reading James
Parton's new lecture in the Tribune, she came to the
account of David Maydole and his hammers, and she
was so sure that the new hammer was from his manu
factory that the reading vas suspended so as to allow
her to go. to the tool-box and get it. Sure enough,
there on one side of the head was "D. Maydole, cast
steel." It was like getting the lost hammer back
again. The new one would preach, just as the old
one had, of "honor, of conscience, of good feeling,
high principle and business sense. It would admonish
every one to work, not fast, nor too much, nor with a
showy polish, nor any vain pretense, but as well as we
can every time, never letting one thing go till we have
done all that is possible to make it what it should be,"

Tho following from the Clinton Co.,
(Mo.), Register, tells of o mule becom
ing the mother of a colt :
Mr. Stephen Freeman, a resident of
Buchanan county, has a fine largo
mare mule, nine years old. which pro
duced him a fine colt on lost Friday.
Tho colt is large and of fine propor
tion. The mother seems to care for it
as attentively, as do mares generally,
and gives suck in such quantity as
that the colt Is growing and doing
well. This is something unoommon.
and may be regarded as an explosion
of the papular theory that a mule
won't breed. ThiB may be the result
of the great cry for "more currency,"
or It may be the legitimate result of
an overstock of grasshoppers and
chinch bugs; we can't tell.
"We would notbetoo Inquisitive, but
would like to know if the sire of that
colt was a horse or a jackass.

protruding. It was taken out. and
appears to be the same needle she lost

You can always tell a boy whose mother cuts his
hair. Not because the edges of the hair look as if
they had been chewed ofT by an absent minded horse,
but you tell it by the way he stops on the street and
wriggles his shoulders. When a fond mother has to
cut her boy's hair, she is careful to avoid any annoy
ance and muss by laying a sheet on the carpet. It has
never yet occurred to her to set him on a bare floor
and put the sheet around his neck. Then she draws
the front hair over his eyes and leaves it there while
she cuts that which is at the back.
I he hair which lies over his eyes appears to be on
fire. She has unconsciously continued to push his
head forward until his nose presses his breast, and is
too busily engaged to notice the snuffling sound that is
becoming alarmingly frequent. In the mean time he
is seized with an irresistible desire to blow his nose, but
recollects that his handkerchief is in the other room.
There is a fly lights on his nose, and does it so unex
pectedly that he involuntarily dodges, and catches the
points of the shears in his left ear. At this he com
mences to cry and wish he was a man.
But his mother doesn't notice him. She merely hits
him on the other ear, to 'inspire him with confidence.
When she is through, she holds his jacket collar back
from his neck, and with her mouth blows the short bits
from the top of his head down his back. He calls her
attention to this fact, but she looks for a new place in
his head and hits him there, and asks him why he didn't
use his handkerchief. Then he takes his awfullylis
figured head to the mirror and looks at it, and, wung
as he is, shudders as he thinks what the boys on the
streets will say. Danbury News.
