A Preventive ot Crime.
If education, 'bajtja cultured minds,
does not prevent crime, then what
does? Will some of liio wiso men
who write for the papers perching
themselves high up Mil their self con
ccit and confidently decide nil educa
tional topics please tell us. Indeed
jt is often argued in opposition lo ed
ucation thai it is a lool of the most tre
mendous kind, to carry on wickedness,
in the world, or, as commonly ex
pressed, the more cducnt:on tho great-'
,vtrand sharper the rascal, and on ibis
account these foes of a cultured mind,
way education is a doubtlul blessing
to the mass of mankind. The best
answer, probably, that can bcgi.v.enj
X-9 this assertion is simply lo look at
jt.be statistics of crime ; one look w ill
?he sufficient to show who nourish thel
hideous monster. We have it from
the very best statistical information
that in the whole United Slates the
illiterate person cgmmils ten limes
?. . r ....
iho munbci',0? crimes that the edu
cated one docs. We admit that edu
cation has been sadly abused; so has
leligiou ; and if the abuse of gnu justi
fies its abolishment, so does the abuse
Of the other. Thai is a strong asser
tion, but it is no less true. What if
there has boon educated vice, what i-?
it in proporlioh to educated virtue?
}t.is an indubitable fact that pauper
ism and crime, the inevitable out
growth of uneducated and uutiilored
minds, arc more p;cvalept in those
sections where schools and the means'
lor educa ional training nie not cs
jtabli>hed and mainlainc/,1. A {.'useful
examination and study of the crimi
nal records of this country and y.-oi
<iUs parts of Kuiope, discloses this
laut and fully substantiates our posi
tion that a, large majority ol those
who compose the criminal list arc il
literate. Fiom a public standpoint
nothing is so costly as crime, and ij-,
poranl labor. .'.'Nothing makes pu.b
jjp prdcr so difllcuit, rcpulalioii so in
secure, property so precarious, gov
ernment in every department so cost
ly and unstable, as ignorance and its
cppaitncr, yico." For l/jerp are evils)
which every government has to con- J
tend then; is no remedy so t^ectnal:
gs the salutary Influence of public]
j'du ation. The development of a lia- '
lion is ll c lest It of educated minds. |
L; I caching history it is an excel j
lent plan to give I iographical sketches]
ol illusliions characters occulting in I
the lesson, (Ilten the pupils them-1
selves will refer t.o the books from
jyhjcli the icacher derives his iuforuia
Hon, and often briny very interesting
contributions. One ^reut advantage
(if this method is that there will ly
popp of thai learning of words bj I
jjourt so dear to ijnll pupils and in
cnnjpptPllt tcaplioi'8. Another advan
tage is that it imbues the student
jyith a laudable ambition to excel in
J}i8 p\\(i language what ho reads, a
duly al! teachers should requite after
pveiy reading exercise.
What is education? Many an
awpra liayp beep given lo this (pics
tioji, nor do we hope lu throw much
light Upon the subject, but we deem
a Due education lo ho a irqiujpg ol
(he trjiolp of o man-..intellectually,
morally und physically. '1\> train the

fanatic, and lo train the body alone
typtkes Iii in a well developed brute.
'1 jik great njrp pf tlip tpachpr should
be to inculcate in his pupils a desire,
a love for knowjedgp. The simple
