CIVIL SIGHTS.
It will be seen by the statement
of Mr. Felix Coste, President of the
St Louis School Board, that oppo
sition to the mixedchool feature of
the civil rights measure in that city,
will come from all classes, and that
"the German element are nearly all
against it." Herald.
Mr. Felix Coste, President of 'the
St Louis School Board, is evidently
a pupil of the old pro-slavery school.
That class of Bourbons never learn
anything and never can rid them
selves of their prejudices. The
German element of St Louis may
possibly be a unit in favor of keep
ing up caste In the public schools,
but they merely represent a senti
ment, for which the St Louis
school system and such Bourbons
as Mr. Felix Coste are responsible.
The German element in cities
where the mixed school system
prevails have so far manifested no
disposition to break it down. Take
the city of Cleveland for example.
The proportion of the German ele
ment to the other nationalities is
fully as great as that of St Louis.
The colored population is ever
more numerous.
For more than fifteen years there
has been no distinction on account
of race or color in these public
schools. The best evidence that
these schools are extensively pat
ronized by the German element, is
the fact that in nineteen of these
public schools the children of Ameri
cans, Germans and Negroes, are re
ceiving instruction in the German
language.
The aristocracy of Cleveland will
compare favorably for culture and
refinement with the aristocracy of
any city in the Union. And yet the
sons and daughters of these aristo
crats may be found in the Cleveland
High School competing for the hon
ors with the sons and daughters of
the German mechanic or the negro
hod-carrier.
Even Mr. Felix Coste would bo
forced to admit that the mixed pub
lic schools of Cleaveland and De
troit are far superior to the unmix
ed schools of St Louis. Right here
we may as well direct the attention
of tho Herald to a historical fact
that fully illustrates the effect of
Caste prejudices upon a nation. Only
ono hundred years ago the Jews,
in Germany, were just as much des
pised, shunned and ostracised
as tho negroes have been in the
former Amerjcan slave states.
In those days a Jew had no rights
which a good Christian was bound
to respect They were excluded
from all participation in public
affairs, and deprived of the right to
become owners of the soil. They
were compelled to wear a distinc
tive dress, and confined in the most
loathsome and pest jlent jaj quarters of
every city. Tho public schools were
closed against them, and even the
most ignorant and degraded peas
ant, considered himself socially su
perior to the despised Jew.
What would the Germans of
1774 say If they could bejiold the
great change wrought among their
descendants by a century? In
stead of being persecuted, ostracised
and disfranchised the Jews now oc
cupy some of the most exalted po
sitions in the social, political and
scientific circles of Germany. To
day the njost eminent professors in
tho universities of Qermany are
Jews. In the common schools, in
every educational institution, in the
schools of science, art, literature and
music the Jews have achieved a
recognized distinction. So much
for national prejudices and Caste.
THE LOHO SAYS.
ST W. D. UOWEIXS,
Tea! ther art here again, the long, long days.
After tha da-ra of winter, pinched and
white.
Soon, with a thousand minstrels comes tha
ligi.t.
Lata the swact robin-hjunted dusks delays.
But the long daya that bring us back the
flowers,
The sunshine aud the quiet dripping rain,
And all the things we know of spring.again,
The long days bring not the long-lost hours.
The hours that now seem to hare been each one
A summer in itself, a whole life's bound,
Filled full of deathless joy, whore, in his
round,
Hare these forever faded In tha sun.
The fret, the fever, the unrest endures,
Eut the time flies ... .Ob, try, my
little lad.
Coming so hot and play-worn, to be glal
And patient of the long hours that are yours.

HEE WISHES.
' Come here, my little daughter,
Come hither to me, I pray ;
To the question I ask I deslie
To hear what you will say ;
Supposing some kind fairy
bhould give you wishes three,
Tell me, ur little darling,
Wnat would these whiles be ?
" Would they be, my little treasure,
Say. would they bofor Wealth,
And that boon above all others
The priceless blessing Health
Aud would you wish for Beauty,
For Learning or for Fame
Tell me, and tell me truly,
The wishes you would n.-we."
"Oh. no, my father," she replied
"Nut any, if you please ;
I'd wish that I could do an act
Upon the high trapeze;
And then I'd wish that I nii&ht hare
Two educated bogs;
And last but best-l'd wish that I
Could do a dance with clogs,"
HATEIMOKIALITIES.
The first important bill looking
toward the solution of the cheap
transportation problem, has passed
the Lower House of Congress. It
provides for the construction of the
Fort Saint Philip canal, below New
Orleans, and the improvement of
the mouth of the Mississppi. To the
people of the Mississippi and Mis
souri valleys, these improvements
will eventually be of incalculable
value. Water transportation must
always remain the cheapest, and
we anticipate the day is not very
distant when the Missouri aud
Mississippi rivers shall become the
principal and favorite outlet for the
grain exported from the grain pro
ducing regions of the great West
It k to bo hoped tliis bill will pass
the Senate before the adjournment
ao that work may be commenced
ea these great national improve
ments during ihe present year.

If our Telegraphic advices touch
ing President Grant's views on the
financial policy of the future may
be relied on, the prospect for the
enactment of any currency bill by
,tfee present Congress is decidedly
4oabtful. President Grant an
niiunrrn himself an uucompromis
lag convert to -the contraction
policy, and in favor of specie re
fumption within the next two
yean..
Tbis is more than even tho most
urInecontractionists would ex
pect to accomplish. Horace Gree
ley Med to say "the way to bring
about resumption is to resume," and
Greeley was doubtless correct in
theory," but it is a theory that would
prave a failure if the Government
should attempt to put int prac
tice. While we do not believe that in
flation of the currency M-ould afibrd
any reHef to any part of the coun
try, we do not believe that our
flnancial policy should be regulated
by President Grant's term of office.
While specie resumption on July
4th, 1876, might be very flattering
to his personal pride the consequent
eetraoUoB in yalae3 might prove.

couple entered the car and took a
seat. The husband wanting to
smoke, left his wife and went into
the smoking-car. The bride began
to doze, and while sho slept a
stranger entered the car, and as it
was crowded, quietly, took a seat
besde the young wife. Shortly she
began to nod, and doubtless imagin
ing that her husband was still in
the seat, gentlj' reclined toward the
stranger, and soon her head fondly
nestled on Ills breast At this junc
ture the husband entered. He stood
in mute astonishment in the aisle
until the lady awoke, and, realizing
the situation, drew back in amaze
ment suflused with blushes. The
stranger explained, the husband was
satisfied, and the wife tried hard to
appear unconcerned.
