 TariF at the SomA.-The Sou,hron, published in Jackson, (Miss) says The people of the South and West who until recently, were opposed 10 proec- ton, arc retracng their steps almost unanimously In two years time, there will hardly be single Southern man of intelligence opposed 90 the Tariff princples.'

 Procticing Low |" os herefofore"-The Middle town Constitution says The locos, while Mr. Els worth Governor, had much to say about his practcing law as heretofore" We are informed that present loco loco Governor has changed his course in this respect, but continues practice law in the name of Cleveland & Hovey. Hovey is the Governors private Secretary, and thus the emol unen.s of both public and private business can be brought into the Governors pockets.

 Mir. Edtor-Our freedom is based on the free ex- Presson of our opinions and this, beyond any thing else, exalts us as nation to take that place among the nations of the earth equailed by none other There is nothing that will 30 much help to preserve that standing 10 which have attained, and to per petuate civil and religious institutions, as our Common Schools. Here rests the bulwark of the na- ,ion. Here our statesmen, and our clergy-and with them will soon be committed the dearcsts inter- ests of our republic.

 Our last Legislature it seems thought that somc- thing ought to be done with them-the laws in rela to Schools were not quite they should be-and permit me to show, in some faint degree, how they have bettered lhem and cannot think of any thing else as applicable Benton tinkering with the Tency." They have thought best to do away with Union Schools, which in parts of the state in hourshing condition, and they were calculated, in themselves, to do much good, as experience has shown proving coaclasiv vely that the older and more advanced scholars do iaE better under ma le nstuc tor, and the small ones under a female-and the towns where they have been at the trouble and ex- pense of erecting house to accommodate school of this order, will feel very thankful repre- senaves for thus being deprived of tha [, which in tsel was calculated 10 do so much good the resng generation.

 The Visiting Committee of Schools it seems must be deprived of their pay Yes! they must 10 the welfare of the schools, and that the school money IS properly expended, without any compensation whatever. Our last legislature one would believe, designed to bring about the same state o things that formerly existed when. in one term of schooling the school could be visited twice in one day, or Tn other words, any way to the law, and get the public money Our schools ought not to be thus tri fled with; they are the dearest interests of every community. Parents do not visit the schools where their children attend day after day-they seem to act on the principle that "what costs nothing to think but little of" The only thing for them to care for is-to keep the teacher, be they good, lon ger than the public money lasts. Shall the teacher feel an interest? Truly they ought but it probably but temporary employment for the purpose. of- ten,, of securing little filthy lucre," and they hardly expect to teach but term where they are, and then seek some other employment, or some other school Who then shall feel interested Shall it be some eight nine men, in every part Ot the society, incompetent judge of the defects good qualities of school-not understanding the branches taught at the present day. and knowing but little of the best me thod of mparting instruction 10 the youthful mind, to make it pleasant and interesting? No Ought 1t not to be some two three men well qualified to perform the duties of their station, and without fear favor, to dismiss those teachers who are not com- petent to teach good school And can this be ex- peeted of any set of men without any recOmpense whatever? By 90 doing they will not always meet with that kindness to which they are entitled, for some teachers attempt to teach school that ought not and they ought to be dismissed, and seek some other employment. A committee is expected to do this spend some ten or twelve days in visiting these schools. and if they are all visited by these two or three individuals correct report can be made out ot their standing, and in no other way can 1t be done thought, to present to the school society.

 Ought these men to spend their time in looking af- ter the best good of these schools any than select-men should give their time ths town, the physicians some ot their time to their patIens-or how much better, that the lawyer should be little would not wish any reflections our Cover nor for I understand he is pFacucing lawyerEbut as be recommends that visiting committees o1 schools should consider their vocation bene vUient one Jet hm hearin mind that charity begins at home" E.
