Two questions at present, divide public opinlunwlmtll of them important; both of them awaiting a settlement—tho sclml question and the question of Confoderatlou. We shall first deal with these. With respect to the School question. we distinctly hold that the secular system of education at pre- sent in operatlou among us. is the bane of Society; and that such year it is Impounded. pushes forward a sap dangerous to public morality. Religious principles. we contend. are ussentiully um'essury to make ml tion a boon to the young. The education ll. is stripped of flu-m is u constant menace to order and geotl government. in an age like the present. when infidelity is f‘umpuul and Christianity openly annotated, it is the duty of u Christian Government. if it has anything at all to do with the education of its people. to supply them with safeguards ugrtlust modern paganism. and the means of resisting its assaults. 'l‘uis can only be done, by religious training ; nu-l religious training to be effective on the young scholar. numt lie woven in with the educational system in which be is trained. and be luclllcutml as a part of the work of the ilnyoelnml.
