,.i The tittle is approaching when there ^rill be given to the public a report of this institution f6r the first term of its exist­ence. Should this report be glorious in its encouragement, no small amount df compliment would accrue to the citizens of Redwdod Falls for • seconding this much-needed enterprise.

As the case now stands, however, what­ever foothold has been gained is due not so much to home patronage, or home en­couragement, as to the persistency tff those etlgrigeQ in the enterprise/ fcbd thfc' practical enedtiragemeht from surround­ing neighborhoods. It is very true that a taste for such things must first be begot­ten. Yet what better method is there for producing this taste than by establishing an institution right in the midst of the people, sowing such ground as is pre pared for the seed. We recognize that all institutions of civilization, of educa­tion, of refinement, precede this taste. But what is the report in regard to Red­wood as a community? That it is very intelligent, sociable, and possesses no small amount of culture. That is what we like to have said of us. That is what we ourselves asserted in our first circular, i Without retracting one jot from such a j Compliment, we would define this iutelli-1 gencc, sociability aud culture as individ-' ual.'and not organic. We are as it were, in a stupor, or as a man freezing to death, who says. Let me alone; I'm doing well enough. Yet the man is none the less a man for so spenking. and is in none 1 lie less a freezing condition. Our intelli­gence, sociability and culture i* like the sugar in the canc. It needs organizing. It is there, but only in the sap. Do not { understand us to say that all the people : in Redwood are sap heads. Not this at' all. At this point a long and mournful: wail, as from the inmost recesses of some deep gorge, strikes our auricular tj-mpan-um-p-o c-e r t-y. The significance of this word is enhanced by experience. Its oft repetition has made the word familiar. Poverty, hard times and the weather— bating a few weeks past, when politics was the theme—in these parts furnish the only vigorous subject for un half-hour's conversation. Poverty, perhaps, is a very wicked thing. But it need not make us immoral. It need not keep us in ignor­ance. It need not cause us to be improvi­dent of generations to come. If we look

history, the fact will dawn upon ion that our material condition is not worse, nay. by far not so bad as that of other people who were more intelligent, more enterprising, more moral, more reli­gious. We will cite three of the poorest1

countries in the world, also three of the wealthiest, and see if we do not discover ( the l»w that education is in an inverse! ratio to natural resources. On the one hand we have Holland, Switzerland, New England; on the other, Spain, Turkey, Mexico. In the first case, we must under- j stand that Holland was actually a h-Mow I lun-J. and so jealous was Old Ocean of his ! possession, that thc population were; called on one? and again literally "to take > arms against a sea of trouble." Add to ! this natural disadvantage the social dis- '• advantage of being condemned to be hung and burned <i< a n besides be­ing taxed to the amount of ten per cent. [ aud over during the government of such i a monster as the Duke of Alva; aud the many hardships through which the iuhab- | itants were made to pass in order to gain tueir freedom and carry on a system of natioual freedom. The series of obstacles overcome in Switzerland aud New Eng­land in order to gain a high standard of intelligence, confirms the proposition that _ . education is begotten not of wealth but Oysters, of struggling penury. Spain, Mexico and I Turkey, with all their wheat and ail their ! gold, are only upon the rairg 'd edge of' civilization. Let us not then plead pov­erty as an excusc of zeal in matters of schools, society, or the church. The trite-1 ness of the remark makes it exceedingly vulgar— procul, procul. 0! profuni.

It has been remarked that were we to organize an institution for the education of the wrong end—commonly called (lanc­ing school—we could soon establish an­other bank. This might be verified in some places. We douttt whether it could be in Kedwood. Just so soon as the peo­ple understand that patronizing the Acad­emy—where the system of hourly recita­tions prevails— is chmper and (with effi­cient instructors) more profitable, we need no (make many pleas in behalf of the in stitution.

Wc are not in opposition to the public schools, but supplemental. For the latter you pay your taxes, and give yotir son or daughter all tluir time. To the Academy you pay ten dollars for three months, and your son or daughter gives three hours a day.

If a young man or woman, by working in thc day time, studying in the evening and morning—sudposing health to be nor­mal—cannot earn ten dollars aud board, they will probably fall to pieces before i the *ime comes.

The following schedule, though simple, shows how time may be economized:

Sleep, 8 hours (none but infants whose brains arc very soft, and those who un­usually exert themselves, require more); study, 0 hours; meals, 2 hours; etc., 2 hours; work, 6 hours.

Six hours per day work ought to earn board and tuition.

Without wishing to speak in a carping manner or a piteous tone, we would ask thc people, Can you afford to neglect in­teresting yourselves in that which, if

We were in the District Clerk's ofllce at the court house the other day, and no­ticed a tremendous spatter of ink on the ceiling over thc stove. Had it been on the walk we should have concluded that Mr. Paftton or Judge Bowers'had been unofficially slinging ink in the beat of a political argument, and refrained from further investigation; but we bad too good an opinion of their judgment and experi­ence to suppose that either of them would throw so wild « to carom on the ceiling.
