Seoretary of National Education.
While the nation hu9 beon rocked
from centre to circumference by the
protracted discussions on States'
l ights and other momentous qnestj
tions, it would not have l>con amiss
for national deelaimers to pas9 one bill
establishing ano'.hei ollicer in the
Cabinet, viz: "Secretary of Educa
tion." We have a Secretary oi the
Treasury, why should we not have a
of tr.oro^i^rfanwTo looK after obi1
educational affairs in time of peace
than our military affairs? Is educa
tion of more or less importance than
(inancc?
II it is necessary to ordain and per
petuate a froo republican form of gov
ernment, it is of prime importance to
enforce that which is to continue its
existence. We have a National Bu
reau of Education, but it is a mere
figurehead. It should be an all pow
erful educational centre composed of
State Superintendents, whose duty it
should he to elect a General Superin
tendent of 4ducatlo|, ind he should**
exercise apfstvei in His- particular
sphere similar to the other membsrs
of the Cabinet. China and Japan
havo educational ministers. We
would like to see this subject thor
oughly discussed and put to the
American people for decision ; for no
one can deny that our prosperity, out
civil and religious liberties depend
lor their existence upon the the edu
cation of the people. We ought to
have a government strong enough to
say that every child shall be .educated
and strong enough to enforce what
it says. s\ < > I r|v > J - !
A Good Teacher.
What is a good teacher? Very few
communities know what is a good
teacher. Some people think that he
or she who has passed his academic
examination with high grade, leaves
college panoplied in classic robes, is
the very individual to teach school.
One man thinks that be who can
frighten children, into...obedieuce;
another, IhnT^tr hxrii> "good lnfig
gers," while still another believes
thai he who uses the birch very frc
quently, is all right and the very one
for the skuation. We once read of a
community LliaJ, objected to a man
simply because he had graduated at a
college. That community needed
great light. It is a fact worthy of
mention that parents often need as
much leaching ns their children. It
as not an easy matter to answer fully
what a good teacher is, but we hope
the day is not far .distant when no
roan, who is not ^uplilipd by .head.and
heart, will pnsume to occupy
Abe teacher's chair. Away with thos :
who enter the profession as a pecuni
ary convenience, and aiot for the good
?vi those w iioui they are to tench. A
?good, honest, conscientious, teacher
in every school house in this State
would work a revolution unpnralelled
In the history of our conn tr}'. Would
that we were blessed with such.
Honest Brains.

It is shameful to witness such wick

The Neighbor, now?1870?in its
twelfth year, continued an Advocate of

As nil Independent Organ of Christian

to establish Peace in its Divinely ap

World.
The number of the present generation,
who believe with the early disciples ot
Christ, that Christianity and War are
contrary, ono to the other, is hopefully
on the increase. In aid of the further
rcestablishment of this faith and prac
tice of Primitive Christians, the Neigh
