NEABLY ALL COLLEGE GKADUATES The Most Learned Succeeded by the Most - Illiterate An Interesting Article. There Is nothing in the constitution of the United States to forbid the choice of Mi ignorant man to the presidency, pro-vided thAt he can read and write, for without these qualifications he would be "incapacitated" within the plain mean-ing of that clause. The public opinion of an intelligent people, howevor, has been quite as effectual. Most of the presidents have been men of extremely varied accomplishments, and the one most ridiculed for his dofects really ex-ercised the most power, and could, on occasion, write remarkably vigorous English. George Washington was precocious in size and strength, but not in learning. Only the most earnest industry gave him ' high standing in the English schools of Stafford county, Va., and, though ho tudied French 'as part of his prepara-tion for an intended naval career, he never tried to speak or write it. A little later, however, when the troubles of childhood and early boyhood were f passed, his intellect seemed to braoine extraordinarily active and he ran rapid-ly through algebra, geometry end trig- - ononoetry and soon became a good, $ practical surveyor. Association, howev er, did everything for him. Constant iwsoclation with his mother was a libera. franco, and soon mastered the language so thoroughly as to teach English to French courtiers. Hie father being trans-ferred to Holland, the lad attended school in Amsterdam, and then went to the university at Leyden. At 15 he was in Russia as his father's private secretary, after which he traveled extensively in Europe, and entered Har-vard college, whence he was graduated, in 1788. After a thorough course in law and a brief period of practice he was, in 1794, appointed ministerto the Hague.and thereafter his career is historical. Yet of him, as of his father, it must be said that his administration was not a great success. He came into office at a time when parties were breaking up and re-forming, and they invariably broke and reformed in such a way as to leave him with a hostile congress. The most loarned of all the president was eucceedod by the most illiterate; the one with the least power by the one whose power was simply autocratic. There is apparently no end to the anom-alies in Andrew Jackson's character. Possessed of great shrewdness and jare political insight in some respects, he also exhibited much natural courtesy to those he liked; yet bis ignorance was phenom-enal on many things not directly in the line of his experience, and even in the law, at which lie certainly made a suc-cess, he was far from thorough. Hie most intimate friends say he never would believe that the world is round; but there is reason for suspecting that he was play-ing upon them. Again and again the educated classes of the country were a unit against him, and a very furious unit; yet he easily de-feated every combination and ruled the country for twenty years. His will di-rected the opposition to John Quincy Adams, and for eighteen years after his retirement his methods controlled the dominant party. To the day of his death he did not certainly know which of the Carolinas he was born in, and beyond an "old field school" and a few months at an academy It is not clear that he had any early schooling. Yet he somehow picked up an immense amount of practi-cal information and was the one over-powering personality of all American history before the civil war. Martin Van Buren had but an ordinary English education, entered active poli-tics at 18, and stayed in it forty-eigh- t years. William Henry Harrison's early education was very thorough, but in-complete, as he entered the army at the ige of 10. John Tyler, born in 1700, was graduated from William and Mary in 1807, and in 1800 was admitted to the bar, at the early age of 19. Perhaps sufficient time has elapsed for the histo-rian to say with safety that his is the third case in which the precocious scholar did not have a very successful adminis-tration. WILLIAM AND MARY COLLEOB. education in itself. With his brother Lawrence after the latter's return from England, with Lord Fairfax and other gentlemen of the colony, Washington learned more than from books. During all the rest of his life he only studied a subject as the occasion required it. John Adams presented a marked con-trast to Washington in almost every re-spect. He grew slowly, and early in life acquired an almost ideally perfect edu-cation; first in the schools of his native Braintree, Mass., then in a grammar school of more than military thorough-ness, and finally at Harvard college, where he was graduated in 1755. He was probably the best scholar of his age in all the colonies. He taught a gram- - mar school for a while and studied law with unusual thoroughness. He then thought of becoming a minister and studied theology; but the spirit displayed at a church trial which ho attended drove that idea out of his head forever. He wrote incessantly, on all sorts of subjects, publishing only his best pro-ductions, and thus became perfect mas-ter of the pen. At the age of 80 be was supremely equipped for the struggle which then (1765) began between Great Britain and her colonies. That year he located in Boston and thereafter his life was in itself an education. Yet with all these advantages it cannot be claimed that the administration of John Adams was a success. The new government had entered on a course where old prece-dents were of no avail, and consequently learning was no great ad vantage; the un-learned man of good common sense was just as apt to decide aright as the best equipped scholar. Within limits, Thomas Jefferson was a ery good scholar. At the age of 9 (in 1752) he entered on the study of Latin, Greek and French with the Kev. Mr. Douglas, a Scotch divine, 'and for the next eight years he was a diligent but rather discursive student. At 17 ho en-tered William and Mary, that old and honored but most unfortunate of colleges, whjch has graduated three presidents and been four times destroyed by fire, besides being made barracks successively for English, French, Continental, Con-federate and Federal soldiers. In 1700 Jefferson began the study of law, but was evidently not thoroughly equipped when admitted to the bar. Vet his suc-cess was phenomenal. In two years he had conducted 200 cases, and had taken 600 in fees (3,000, equal to twice or thrice the amount now. In 1760 he en-tered the Virginia house of burgesses as a "Liberal," and thereafter political life was his educator. James Madison was the great scholar of his state and time. Not quite equal to Jolin Adams, perhaps, in early equip-ment, his tenacious memory finally made him the superior in general knowledge. Born March 16, 1751, he entered the junior class at Princeton, N. J., in 1708 and graduated 1771. He remained an-other year, reading with Dr. Wither-spoo- n, and so injured his health by ex-cessive study that he never entirely re-covered. Even before the revolution he was well versed in law, theology, philos-ophy and belles lettres; but his cotem-porari-did not discover his real abilities till the convention of 1787 met. There his services were lie had LEYDEN UNIVERSITY. James K. Polk, bora in 1795, was grad uated from the University of North Caro-lina in 1818 and admitted to the bar in 1820. Zachary Taylor, though born In Virginia, was taken to a thinly settled sec-tion of Kentucky at an early age, and had but an indifferent early education. His "running mate" and successor, Millard Fillmore, had an even poorer chance in childhood In " the then wilds of Cayuga count, N. Y,, and at the age of It was apprenticed to a fuller. By hard work and Bevere ecviomy he gained a fair edu-cation and knowledge of law sufficient to enter the practice. Franklin Pierce was a very accomplished gentleman and good classical scholar, graduating from Bowdoin college at the age of 20 in 1824. James Buchanan, born in 1791, was grad-uated from Dickinson college in 1809 and was admitted to tho bar in 1812. All the world knows of tho education pf Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant. " Between them came the some-what unfortunate Andrew Johnson, who contests the palm for illiteracy with An-drew Jackson. He reached manhood totally uneducated and his wife taught him writing and arithmetic. He had previously learned to read a little. Af-terwards, however, by general reading he acquired a very fair knowledge of history and popular science. It. B. Hayes was tho valedictorian of his class, graduating from Kenyon college in 1842.

Be, more than any other on uian, se-cured the literal form and final adop-- tion of the national federal constitution, James Monroe was also graduated frouj William and Mary, but did not take the fall course. The revolutionary war drew him away from his studies, and he won high honors in the field, but was never specially noted as a scholar. After him came the most learned president the United States ever had. The knowledge of John Quincy Adams was varied, thor-ough and well digested. At the early e of 11 lie went with his father to |
