W e hare assembled this evening for the improvement ot the Common School?a school tl.at we call common; not aa inferior; not as the school for poor men's children; but as the 1 ght and ihs air are common. And what is common to all, should be the be?t of all. IV* have met under those per vadnig, though, perhaps, uut xpressed convictions, that without incessant watchtulness?without au unsleeping eve for ever over public lnaiitu ion?, ther becomepike wastes,'and enrnmoni-open ap;aren.Ij to all, productive of benefit to cene We have come together, uut to say whether a rail oad shall be made from this to sMiie other place, nor whether one of yoar citizens shall be elected to some office; no, we have met to advance the best good of tomorrow's society?for children are to morrow's society. Our object is to ask your ater.tion to the infiaiie worth ot this inward bring-this immortal Thought?this boundless Capacity. Epietetuswas wont to say, that it wns much better for a people to meet, to see how tbey might elevate the soals oi? the,r citizens than the roofs of their houses." It is for this better purpose that we have eonveued. And, before 1 proceed further, 1 will request the privilege of being familiar and conversational in my manner this evening. It is my wish to use the colloquial style, for I have found that if make men feel this susj-ot?if I ma'te them talk about it when they go home, and net for it hereafter, 1 mutt talk to ttaeiu while they sro with me?u a man talk* to a man, a* a lawyer talk* to hi* jury. In explanation of my object, it'yon will permit me to bringintconj motion two (treat names,1 will repeat that beautiful and forcible criiicisiu of Longiau*,on the manner and effect ef the speeking of Cicero and Demontheces. He tell* u* that when the |>enple went from one of Cicero'* rations, they always said "tVhat a beautiful speaker! what a rick fine voice! what an eloquent man Ciceio is! They talked of Cicero But when the people left Demosthenes, they said to each other, let us fight Phi ip. (Applause.) Ladies uud guntlemen, if i shall euc coed t?-niglit making you say, aa yoa go home, let us fight ignorauco, shall have gained the only object I have in deliveriug this lecture The less the speaker and his manner is noticed cr thought of the bett r. The friends of education are apt to expectje very thing from the goodness of their cans# and therefore do hat lit.lc tor it themselves. Yes, the cause of the people's education is so good?so very good?so undeniably good?that but very few care any thing for it. Yet each one has not only a public, hnt a private interest in the subject. He that attends to his interior self, th t has a heart an J keeps|it, a mind that hungers, and suppliesit; who seeks a useful, not a worthless life, has a deep interest in the subject of education; for he it something less than a man who does not daily educate himself to the utmost "And who woufa suppose that education weie a thing which had to be au vac?tcd on the groued of individual or national good; o*, indeed, on any groundl Ae it it s>ood not on the basis of everlasting duty?a prime necessity and birthright of man It is a thing that should need no advocating, as mach as it does actually need. To imparl the gift of thinking to those who cannot think, and yet have the capacity for thought, one would imagine, was the very fiist function of a government to discharge. Would it not be a cruel thing to see the inhabitant* oi this eity, living ail mutilated in their limbs, each strong man with hie right arm brokenl How much more so, to find the strong soul, with its eyes still sealed, its pulse gone, o that it beate not, trebs not. Light hat come into this world, hut to the ignorant soul it bae come in vain. For six thousand years the sons of Ydam, in sleepless effort have been devising, doing, discovering?warring, a little bend of brothers, against tha empire of night. And tbejr have made a noble conquest. But to tbis man, it is all as if it had not been. The thoughts that millions of intellects have lived by, and that now live on, in everlasting music, come not to him. He paeeee by on the other aide?that rich mental kingdom, tha toil worn conquest of bis own brothers, is a boon not for him? an invisible empire?be knows it not. Who would think it to be necesaary to advocate an education for such a brotherT' It is encouraging ta aaethie indifference to man's higher noble nature fast passing away. Europe is covering herself with Com iiiun ocnouii, ana mrones are ia a contest to enlighten ignorance The naoat perfect school system in the world, is that an psraaWlly foe tared bj the despotic king of Prnssia. So perfect, in theory and practice, is this Prussian system, that it educates every child in the kingdom. Three of its most striking aud peculiar features are worthy of a short notice irom us. And first, whatever relates to the system has impressed upon it the highest reapeet. The Minister of Public Instruction is selected for his high attainments andAalente, and he rauks in station next to the king. Secondly, the teache;s are educated for their profession. Mo man is a'loryed to teach a school, until he has studied the "Art of Teaching," and intends to make the calling his profession for life. Prnssia haa fortytwo Normal schools or seminaries to educate school teachers. These two features we should borrow; for the glory of a people does not consist in never borrowing any thing, bat in perfecting every thing they borrow. The third feature we, perhaps, could not introduce. You will say that its com pulsory nature irtoutrary to our feelings and to the spirit af our institation If the Prnasian parent srsltcti to send hi.* children to school, the police olticer takes him ta pri on, and the children to school. Wc might improve a little on this, and take the parent to school also?(laughter)? for sneh a citizen needs as much instruction as the children.

This important information shows us that, as is the Co corn on School, so is the education of the people The e lunation of the American people, taken as a whole, is just what the Common Schools are prepared to give. How many in this large assembly have re e-ivcd any other education than that from the Common Schools If these schools had been better, the education would have been better Although all here have been inapioved by education, every one of reflection is conscious, when he begins to reason and compare, of many defeats in his mental powrrs, and many ineonveuient and embarrassing habits, which wight have been preveo'ed, or remtdied, by a better early education.

But one thing well understood is an excellent starting point for everything else. The great mathematician, Edmund Stone, was the son of a gardener of the Duke of Argyls; and when Edmund was but seventeen years old, the Duke was one day walking in hia garden and noticed Newton's Principia I laying on the grass; directed it to be taken to bis library. Young Stone appeared and claimed it. i ours, aaia toe uuxe,-ao jour, ad geometry, and Latin, aDd New;onl" "A little," answered the boy, who being f urther questioned, excited the Deke'e amazement atill more. And h>w came you with allthia knowIedueV' the Duke at laat inquired. "A aerrant," said Stone, "taught me tea years aince my letters. Does a man need to know anything more than his twenty-six letters in order to know everything else!" Let the schools teaeh the people tbrirtwenty-six letters at they ought to be taught; with delight?with certainty, and they would afterwards educate themselves. A great truth, which the mass have yet to learn, is, that all school education is valuable so far, and so far only, as it has prepared us to educate ourselves. Man^i great concern on earth is education,aud the labor of schools ts simply to fit him to eater on his course with truth and effect. Look at the farmers of this State, wringing from the soil a scanty subsistence. They have powers which, bad they been evolved by an early self-training, would have placed them among the first statesmen of the age. But now, after their cheap schools and penury of instruction, Live unknown, and drop into a peasant grave." The State neglected the school and lost her true sonree of wealth; for an ignorant man is like a lump of iron ore, worth one sou; while he who is educated to look before and after, who observes while he thinks, end thinks when he observes, is like the lump of ore refined, and made into wateh springs, worth six millions of sous. The success of christain effort depends on Common Schools. We will take for an illustration that best of all causes, the bible cause. And, ladies and gentlemen, if we wish to eeeure the triumph of the bible, we must begin Sr securing the triumph of Common Schools. The ev Dr. Dull'; Missionary to India, told the Geneeral Assembly that, from a want or knowledge and aeieace, the Hindoos were not capable ef estimating the evidence of the gospel, whieh, to their dent, feeble minds, appeared like an eld wife's fable. Dr. Duff proposed that the Board of Missions should give to the Hindoos instruction in the various branches of a common edneation, that their minds might be able to see the troth and importance .rik. n-i.? r?,L Wl UVIVIO IUC IWWVI 5"Ci IUIIU IU low bit teed, the ground mutt be prepared.

You will keep in mind that niuetecn out of twenty reeeire from Common Srhoolt all their ability to read the Bible, and that theie mutt read underttandingly, or otherwite, at there tchoolt are improved or worthier!

The reaaca that we sow to many seeds ?RK I MORNING, MARCH 3, 1 by the printed page, and see so few Rower.--, is, the people are not taught to read intelligently and with abiding convictions A tract distributor passed ma a few days since and handed a sailor a tract j The sailor turned it over and upside down, and said I can't read." and dronned the track on the ground. Has oiar tvhole duty been discharged by hand lug (he sailor a tract]" said a rerersnd gcntlc ntan to me, now three yeais since," I have just comitUtsl a tour for distributing the Bible under the direction of the American Bible Society. Seven hundred and two Bibles bare been left by me, but unless teachers rare sent to teach the |?eo|ile to read them, I bad better go and bring back at least fire hundred of the copies." The wea'th and energies of the land are exhausted to send the printed page- Should not the friends of the Bible take a deeper inter st in the improvement of the Common Schools'! To give the Bible, un asked, to the ignorant, and those merely able to proaounce words, is like filling a blind man's house with the piintings of the masters, or casting the seed wheat in the woods, or building a granite temple ic the forest tor the benefit of the roaming savage. The l'alpit also, "that most important and effectua] guard, support, and orinment of virtue's cause," stand* on Common Schools. When the messenger of truth speaks to the congregation, he addresses nind; his arguments presuppose mind, and, nnless the people's schools nave raised the audience up to tne pulpit, where is the minister's influence? As I have listened to a good consecutive argument from the sacred desk, aad have seen the pet pie, with wandering looks and vaoant countenances, ready to turn to the door if anyone should happen to p. as through it, at the vary moment, too, when the speeder was educing au important conclusion, 1 have felt as I have done whileaeeinga person thrust hia hand into a small aperture afer something loose, but whieh be was able to reach only with the ends f his fingers, end f.om his bring able tn touch it, he only pushed it further from him. So with the preacher; be was laboring to get hold of the atteution of the people, but the mind was so feeble, so wandering, so vacant, that there was no grasp, and the great truth fell powerless To make an abiding impression on an cmpty-heaJed audience is as hope less as to make a mark on the ocean (Laughter and applau-e )?We are told by the historians of th- French Egyptian cam paign, that .Bonaparte found, and attempted to rer'uee a garrison, sh-ltered by a huge mud fort. Had the wall been of timber, the besiegers might have burat them Had they been of stone, even {blocks of granite, thev might have breached ihcm by their cannon. But the vast passive mound received the iron mi-sites without effect?they just cloted in and were dead Aad the mighty engines of attack and demolition were paralyzed and powerless. So it is with the preacher when be preaches to the ignorant, (a strong sensation in the audience seeing thev see not. neither do thev understand." And 1 moat respectfully beg It aye to remind the learned clergymen present,in the quaint language of Snu!h, the English aeroionizer, "trie school master often mars what the preacher never mence." The preacher should not only see that the truth falls from his lips, bat also that the people are capable of receiving it. Now, we ring the iSabbath bell long and loud, bat forget to unlock the church door? (the mind.) The invitation goes ont to the people to coane and hear, but the bolted door of ignorance forbids them to enter. The blessings of a Free Press are also dependant on good Common Schools. My friends, what isthe American newspaper presst Fifteen hundred in number; pouring annually upon the wings of the wind, to hide from us the sun of truth, ten million? of printed sLeets aid these damp sheets are falling upon us every morning as thick as snow-flakes in a snow storm; and the people are esgerly gazing upward, with month, and erthat (lay t-hall arrive, the firat maxim that nc shall establish will be, it i* cheaper to edacote the infxnt mind, than to svppnrt the aged criminal.

Would yon use an argument to turn over a rosk, or a crow bar to convince a maul (General laughter Hut it is our duty to educate a democracy?to warm its faith?to elevate its hope?to purify its morals and to direet its energies. This is our high and sacred oftiee. Yet how slightly have we consider ed lhis subject, uh-n, every where it is held to be the first and legitimate duty efthe State to pros ide judges and hangmen for the people. It is a duty to provide the prison, the fetter, and the gallows. It is the duty of the State to destroy human beings, living minds that bear the impress of ihe divine workmanship, however tarnished und wor.-e than this, it is held as a duty for the Slate to immute burn in beings in dungeons, to deprive them of the objects of the external world, and of God's creation to create for them a living death, to tmn the mind into a b auk, and throw the warm gushing* of human feelings, and nymnathies, and affection*, back into a fearful chaos. It is the duty of the State to punish er.me, to send forth fearlul retribution to those who break the law. But hitherto the half civilization of Congre**, and the semi-barbarism of the State Legislatures? (laughter)- and the divine right of demagogues have not thought it a duty to provide for the people, protended to be governed, the means of religious and intellectual advancement, to enable them to know and understand theii duties as regards this life and the life to come. Compelled to obey laws which they searcely ever heard of, the necessity for which they cannot see, and yet not allowed'to plead ignorance of those laws, the poor ignorant lawbreaker is held up to ihe law's viadictivencss and tho bitter retribution of his fellows. The law is severe to punish crimes; it can kill the poor offending wruteh. and send him before his Maker when it pleas' a. Powciful but impotent law, it judges of the act, it thinks that it knows the motive thatlrd to it; but hera it atops and here it fails. It can punish, and in the very zeal of thissaered power, almost too awful to be placed in human hands, it punishes daily; but how inefficient arc its pun. lahmenls.

But this i* not only expensive and ruinous, it is ctuelty, for we, by neglecting the child, produce vice, and then punish it; erect gallows, and then supply them with victim*. The more we reflect upon the connection between crime and blind heedless ignorance, the more we ahull be convinced that thire is no true eradic.tor of crime, but a well principled educition. Penal codes, active police, poor houses on the most liberal scale, are all but substitutes and palliatives. Theeye of the law is not all seeing; the mostactive legislation cannot be at all times, and in all places, with the people.

The ft rat groat diatinction ia in the meaner or iavuiag the government paper. The plan of the Secretary provider for two kinda certificate! of depoaila ind Treaaury note!. The Irat to be iisued doll ?r for dollar for apecie, depoiited to an amount not exceeding $15,000,000, a charge to be made no! exceeding J per cent- The aecond to be iaiued to government creditorallimited to three timea the amount of ipeeie on hand.

That inued on depoiitei at a charge of J per cent, and limited to $15,000,000. The amount iaaued.in payment to the government creditor! to be limited to the ruiouut of ipecie on hand for ita redemption. The plan of Mr. Caahiag, ofthe Heuie committee,au thorizeathe iwne ef $10,000,000 only, without charge to dejiuaitore, and|to the public creditor!, to an amount not exceeding the apecie on hand to redeem it. Thcie are the three plana for iaiuing a government paper for the object of obtaining a uniform national currency. The plan ofthe Secretary it utteily out of the fl'lfliion Vrt lliafl nnli/tn aunma A k?.?vwo?w I apecie received on depoaite, and that which ii to repreaent the government paper afloat; contcqneatly, if, aay $10,000,000 ol apecie were received on depoaite, it would become|the baaia of $10,000,000 of certificatca itaued dollar for dollar, and alao of $30,000,000 of Treaaury notea, making an iaaue of $40,000,000, three fourtha of which ia purely a credit currency ,capahle of no good but of inflicting au infinitude of evil upon the community. It would indeed aupply the preaaing wanta of the Treaaury for a moment,but apeedily cauae a total eaploaion. The two deacriptiona of paper could not circulate together. The certiflcatea would alwaya. be at premium above the notea for obvioua reaaona. If the plan could.be got into operation, an event acaicely poaaible for two reaaona, firat, becauae depoaitota will not pay a premium to place their money with the government Andaecondly, they would not do it, knowing that it would become the baaia of the other notea iaeued,and liable to be paid out in their redemption in a moment of preesure, leaving the certiflcatea uncovered. The depoaite part of Mr. Talmadge'a hill ia aimiiar to that of the Secretary, and equally impracticable. A diatinction aeema, however, tr eaiatbut not very clearly between the depoaite apecie and the government apeeie, forming the baaia of the taiuea to the public creditor, and.to which theae iaauea are confined dollar for dollar; thua cutting olf the credit iaauea of the Secretary'aplan. Mr. Cuahing'a plan ia atill better} became no, charge ia made fur the depoiitea, and, therefore, no bar railed to the reception ofdepoiitei, with the exception that they are confined to an aggregate af $10,000,000, a reitriction common to all three plani, and for which wa can aee no reaion but the jealonay of the bank*. The iieuei to the government creditori are like Mr. Talmadge'e bill,confined to the amount of ipecia en hand. The feature! efthe three bill* may be mmmed up aa follow* Secrttaty't Plan.?Depoiitei, 15,000,000, at J pram. Trea ury natei, $3 for 1 of ipecie on hand. Capable of emitting, $75,000,000.

Capable of emitting, $15,000,0C0, The capacity to iaaue i* calculated on the tuppoaition that in each caae $5,000,000 of the public revenue will be retained in the Tteaaury to repreaent the notea iaaued to the Government creditor*. Thl* we think repreaenta pretty clearly the proviaiona of the three bill* in relation to the iaauea of curreri cy. The plan of Mr. Cuihing ia the only practicable one in thia reaped, aa it ia the only one that offera an v ii I flucement to depositors to place their fund* with the government officer*, and without which, the whole fabric fall* to the ground. The neat feature of the bill* is that relating to bill* of exchange. In this respect the prevision*, common to all the hills, are that the board and agencies may draw and redraw upon eaeh other and accept drafts. The charge for drawing and accepting not to exceed 3 per cent. The Secretary's plan authorise* the purckatt of bills unlimited in amount, bat restricted in regard to distance, time and locality, which restrictions are preposterous as to sny practical purpose. Mr. Talmadge's plan excludespurchase altogether. Mr. Cushlng's plan permits purchase restricted to the actual necessities of the treasury for the transmission of its funds. The purohase of bills is really the loaning of the government funds, open in. dividual promises. What necessity there can noasibiv exist under any circumstance*, we cannot aee. If the I government ?UU? i? at any point wneie it ua? no fnnde, the ale of its bills at that point, en New York where two thirds of its funds are collected, is better for all parties. The government may wish to transmit $10, 000,000 per annum in this meaner, and by bnying instead of selling bills, would run.the risk of loaning its funds on kites to the same extent The features of three bills msy be summed up as follows Secretarys plan: draw, accept and unlimited purchase at 3 per cent Talmadge's plan draw, accept and collect, at 3 per ct Cushing's plan draw, accept and limited purchase at 3 per cent In this respect Mr.Talmadge's plan 1s undoubtedly the best. All three bills strictly preclude the opening of any sc counts with individuals. In all the transactions full and prompt payment is to be made on both sides. The Sixteenth section of the Secretary's plan and the Fifteenthof Mr. Talmadge's both authorise the employment of a bank as an agent. This highly objectionable feature is excluded from Mr. Cushing's bill, and justly so. It is to the full as injndicious as the authorizing the iiiiiA of nansrnn r.rAflH if nnt m#?r? en ltaaaMae bank u (he depository for government funds, will make them the basis of the issues of that bank, which are more irresponsible, and would prove more injurious,than would be the direct issues of the government paper. All the bills concur in making specie, government pa per and the notes of specie paying banks receivable for public daes. Tl.is being the case, coupled with the fact that the government revenues are short $10 000,000 per annum at least) it is not apparent how these or any plan can go into successful operation. It was no doubt with a view to this deficiency that the Secretary's plan embra ced the scheme of credit issues) because if such a currency could be sustained it would immediately place the government in command of $30,000,000. The sure result of such an issue would be a depreciation of the paper, in which case, nothing else would be paid into the Treaeury, and the government would fail. The embarrassments arising from such a state of things are new felt daily, for even (Treasury notes bearing 6 per cent re at a discount, and their absorption through the Cuatarn House keep* the Treasury empty. Assuming howe var, that Congress intends to pursue a judicious course and raise the revenue sufficiently to meet the out goes, the plan of Mr. Cushinir seems to be the most susceptible of being made useful to the community, and the real wants of business seem to require that the chief board should be situated at New York, the centre of trade,* that no power to purchase bills, or any other borrowing or lending power should exist, that the restrictions on the depositea should be removed, in order that the demands of trade should alone regulate the currency, precisely as if it was entirely oomposcdef specie. As we hinted before the only cause Car limiting depositea under such circumstances, seems to arise from the fears of tha bank interest, that the plan may be come so popular as to deprive the banks of their chie( source of profit. Surely it is not just to place a mere arbi. trary law between the public and that which they conceive to be their interest. With these exceptions we conceive that the bill is the germ of the system of finance, which may be matured into a machine of great benefit to the mercantile community. It presents a feasible plan of weeding out that oerrupt banking system that has bocome so interwoven with the trade of the country. It will then prevent that constant fluctuation of the currency which throws the industrious into the power of designing speculators, and induces that missapplication of capital, which diverting it from its legitimate uses of developing the rsoeurcee.of the country,turns it into bank peculations,and when revnliion overtake* the fictitious prosperity, leaves the country poorer than if a steady course of industry had bean pursued. alaa sit th* I tack Biehanfs.
