All had enemiesJ said, as Bhe saw'.me smiling, I suppose: many of them had bitter enemies, and many who were just as good patriots as themselves. We do not tl:nk it politic or kind to go into any of their graves to find weapons to employ in an attack upon their own surviving compatriots^.

Now that the work of reconstruction, the most difficult task ever undei taken by any government, has been nearly accomplished, it seems desirable that Congress should refrain from auv legislation discriminating between the different Statw, or sections, of the Union as to their internal affairs. If we are to have peace, order and content if we are to expect that prosperity which should result from free government, the dignity and equality of the States must be assured. Following the proclamation announcing the adoption of the Fifteenth Amendment, the t'hicago

notices in one of its

exchanges an editorial summary of a bill to establish a system of national education, headed "A plan to ampel

the South

ern States to educate." The bill was Mwn up by Mr. HoAK.and was reported by the Committee on Education in the. .House,'nihl is made the special order for the second Tuesday of IKsccmber nextThe article states, very pointedly, "that it will be noticed that the bill cannot be held to apply to any

Smthcm State,

for

the reason that all of them have a good common school system.' The bill goes on to lay a direct tax on each State to which it applies, for school purposes, and authorizes the President to appoint School Superintendents and other school officers for the States, who are to provide for the "'establishment and mipervisionof district schools."

make* the l'ollowiug

comments on this bill, and we think its sentiments will accord with the views of the most earnest friends of popular education:

The promotion of education is an object worthy of a great nation, but the mode and manner in which it shall be done has so far been wisely left to the States to adjust. It is the policy of every intelligent community to sec that the means of education are provided for all its children aud no State can afford to have an idle or ignorant population. We premroe that most of tlie Southern, States have lost itieir school funds, and if national aid takes the shape of restoring litem, the ptau would meet genenu approval. But fur Congress to establish a State common school system, and levy taxes on a State to carry it into operation, is a project of another kind Northern emigration intothe South is already working changes in the habits! and ideas of the population ou thi* class of subjects, and we look for it to accomplish more than is possible by any legislation, either Slate or National. The children] South, white and black, will be Jdncated because itis not eaf«* to leave them ignorant, and their future labor will be more valuable as it is more intelligent.

States will attend to this as a matter of necessity and self-defense, even if otherwise indisposed to do so. A National Bureau of Education may aid, but cannot 4arrv out, an efficient common school «vstem.

MANNERS UPON THE ROAD.

i: OF TJi£ J,%.SRFIN KAST.ITKT I From Harper's Ba«ar. MY DEAB HUH V,—AS you are one of the most fashionable women in the city, there is no need of reminding you that this is Lent for I know of no fashion which is more rigorously observed in the circles which you adorn. I am sure that Mrs. Millefieurs would be as much shocked not to know the date of Ash Wednesday as to be ignorant of the latent form and material of trimming. Indeed nothing is more Observable than the im portant part which Lent plays in all fashionable projects. I should like_ to know the circumstances under which Mni. Millefleuis would give a party of more than sixty persons in Lent, or to have dancing to any other instrument than a piano during the same sacred season. Her religious scruples upon such subjects are'most edifying. I happen to know that she has entertained very grave doubts whether she ought to wear at dinner a robe more than sewi-decollete and I know few things more touching in the religion of the fashionable circles than to see Mrs. Millefieurs, upon the evening before Lent, dancing the German in a dre» so conspicuously short at the top that old-fashioned gentlemen like mfe are fairly driven from the room and on Ash-Wednesday evening the same lady keenly sensible of her higher duties, and singing at a small musical gathering a toilette which suggests the austere fast upon which she has entered

The other evening, when 1 betrayed that I did not know that it was Lent Mrs. Millefieurs looked at me with sim pie amazement, evidently shocked, and

you were a pagan in a heathen land you might be forgiven for not knowing that It was'Lent but I mnst say that, for Christian in a Christian city, it is shame ful!" "1 beg your pardon, my dear Madame, answered I, "but what is Lent?" "What is Lent?'.' said Mrs. Millefieurs "why.it is the time when ij is not proper to go to large balls n«?r to give them when society coh6nes itself to dinner-parties, snd small evening parties mainly with mu sic when you ought to eat fish on Fri days, and when some of the first ladies in town go to church every morning.'' "Lent ends with'Easter Sunday, doesn it 7" "Certainly it does," replied Mrs. Millefieurs." "And Easter-Sunday is a day when you ought to wear a new bonnet to church, and to see What new bonuets your neighbors wear isn't itj Madame?" "Mr. Bachelor," said she, "it is very bad taste to jest upon serious subjects and so saying, Mrs. Millefieurs laid her arm upon young Tom Lollipop's shoulder, and he put his arm a-ound her waist, and awav they slid into a delightful wait* but a truly Lenteu waltz, for there was only a piano, and it was ihe most informal gathering.

Jest upon serious subjects! Do you sup|Kse, Laura, that that poor woman does not know what a ghastly jest her Lent is? When I «ee her come into Saint Rainbow's, glistening and rustling •and move to her, pew awl kneel on the luxurious cushions, and I behold that enormous chignon of dead women's hair, or liorse-hair, or whatever it is, covered with shreds of la?e aud ribbon, aud Ihe delicate spray of tinted plumes, and hear froiu the front of it. where her mouth is, the words that she reads from that gold and velvet prayer-book, and which declare that she is a miserable sinner, and know all the time that she thinks she is doing a liiglilv proper and religious act in saving so, I have a sudden vision of anothor temple and of a majestic figure that scourges money-changers cowering out, exclaiming in Divine wrath: "Ye have made my Father's house a den of tliieVes.''

What is our duty in Lent? To eat fish on Fridays, or to be generous, forgiving long-snflering, honest, helpful, industrious? Eat as much shad with superior sauce as you wish, my dear. Mrs. Millefieurs, but don't think that is religion. If you eat fish for breakfast and for dinner, and for. six weeks refuse all but that phosphorescent food, are envious and extravagant, as vou are during there of the year, do you flatter yourself tint you keep Lent? The other day I heard a very good 6tory, and I know it to be true, of a priest—-and a Roman Catholic priest, whicn I commend to vout reflection. He has a country parish, and the most of his flock are poor, hard-working men and women. So, on the first 8uoday in Lent they were all assembled in chnroli, apd he said to them: "This is Lent. It is a season of fasting. But it is for spiritual ends.. Now a great many of you are not well all such must eat as heartily as ever, because your health demands it, and because otherwise you cannot honorably folfill your engagements of labor. All of you live by your daily wages and upon those your families depend. But if you do dot eat wholesome food and enough of it, their The welfare is imperiled. You have no mor»per» al right to trifle with your health. -But this,!say,is Lent. Itw fast. Therefore I charge every one of you to fast— fast from whisky and gin and drunkness: fast from lying and thieving and backbiting fast om anger and scolding and

dirt. Lent was the season when our Lord waatem&edof t&'e devil aad resisted. My chUarcn, joa, all ofyou. are temptdevil, udyo^Ltaten duty is

UKMKY A. WIS*, once a Governor of Virginia and member of Congress, but later a General in the rebel army, i«t an* ious for the public to know that be is still an unreconstructed rebel that if President GRANT will favor bim with a pardon he will deface it With blafkimes and send it back. I h4re is no accounting for taste, and bad las that of Mr. WTSE is, it causes the Philadelphia Triquirer to rejoice, for that a per, in common with others, has a vivid and most un comfortable recollection of his long speeches and longer letters and message, when he was a power in the land. The country has progn I wonderfully since HENKY A.'s defectiou, and were he re stored' to his political rights and replaced' in office, no journal could afford to print .hia loiig-windetLorationa and communications,,,,.,

The voting man's face cleared in a moment, and he laughed pleasantly as he said, "I'm keeping Lent.'' "Keeping Lentl" said I, in amazement, for Saint Rainbow's was certainly two miles away. "I've been lo carry some kind of comfort into these horrible rookeries."

I begged bis pardon I felt abashed. I' understood that his shame was that of being detected upon an errand of charity, as if it were then "seen of men." Ah, said I, 'Tis & fast to dole thy sheaf of wheat and meat unto a hungry HOUI." And 1 shook his hand as I saw that he did not wish me todetain him. The next Sunday I did not go to Saint Rainbow's, I went to a little church where there was no especial allusion to the sea-ion, but I heard a sermon which I think did us all good. It was a simple appeal iVom one earnest soul to the rest of us, unfolding its experience, its aspirations, its sympathies. There was that magnetism in it which marks the best preaching I have ever heard, and that syise'of spiritual nutriment which, whoever cau convey, has obeyed the Master's charge to "feed my limbs." It was a sermon that fed us spiritually, and stimulated our manhood. But I confess, my dear Laura, that it did something else. It showed me that there are various errands of charity: that it is a good thing to can-y bread and meat to the starving, and as £ood a thing and as charitable to dole spiriting wheat to a hungry soul. Tf 1 had been inclined to say whoever wished lo keep an acceptable Lent should imitate Seraph, I was rended that the Lent of the preacher I had hea-d was not'less acceptable, although wholly different.

As I came from the little church I met Mrs. Millefieurs driving f-om her Lenten confessions of miserable sinner at Saint Rainbow's to her Lenten mortification of demi-decdll"!', dinner drosses at home. She smHed at me with sad sweetness, and shook reprovingly at me f:om the window of her superb Clarenceas exquisitely a gloved finger as I suppose there is in the city. I bowed in humble acknowledgment of my offenses but I mused, as nhe passed, upon my poet's lines: "Li it to quit the dish 4'i-:

I suppose the good priest would hardly admit tlie poet to be a Christian, but could not deny his poetry to be Christianity. "To starve thy sin, not bin"—what, do yon think of that, my dear Laura, and what do you suppose Mrs. Millefieurs thinks of it? 1 met young Seraph the othei day in a very extraordinary part Of the city to find him, and he seemed quite chagrined at encountering me. You are a friend of Ji'", Laura, and 1 shall not deny that I was amazed and grieved that he should seem disturbed by seeing me, for it seemed to suggest a consciousness of shame. When 1 accosted him I stopped and looked grave artdsaid: "Seraph, I am sorry to find you here.— I knew your father, 1 knew your mother* and I think what their sorrow would be if they saw you under appearance? so suspicious. Now tell me 1 'ankly, what are you doing here?"

I remembered that fish was a very elastic word, and meant silks and laces and jewels also. Is your Lent, s. Millefleurn, to qoit the low-n- oked lace dress, and to p'le higher under your chin the brocade and the moire antique?

And why, Lau-a—for I!)"••+ was a question which I asked myself as I went on— why, if Lent is so good a tb! ig, do we limit it to six weeks? If we are to keep a Lenten fast of abstaining from drunkenness and swertring and i'l-liuinor and greed and me-teness, why let it end at Easter If we a-e to live temperately and moder ately until, as they say in Naplr i, "the Lord is risen," why not live moderately and tempe atel\r afterward? I wish my dear Laura, that you would ask Mniefleurs, with my comp'intents, why if it is comely and modcU and decent to weav that conspicuously short lr on 'lie eveirng before lent, it is not equally so the even'ng af.er? 1 sh to know L'una, why, if a 'rue Lent is starve our sin, not bin. we ought not to keep a Lenten fast all the year round? I could not find any charge in the go wl priest's exhorta*ion, that I have mentioned, which did not seem to me just in tit for e\*erv season as for that of Lent, and as good for every day-ill the year as for AshWcdnesdav. 1 wonder if Mrs. Mil'efieui.nn!
