We do think it would BE- well for persons

We supposed Mr.. Caldwell would not accept
the nomination for Governor rendered him by the
Locofoco Convention of this State, and such proves
to be the case What the party will now do fol
a candidate is quite uncertain.-C Chronicle.
The Chronicle certainly knows how to "sup.
pose" things with great deal of accuracy, and we
give him all due credit for his powerful foresight
in forming such correct ideas But what "the par.
ty will now do for candidate" is certainly, we
should suppose" from the clustering and brag'
ging of the FEDERAL prints, matter of no conse.
quence to them, the federalists, since they can
easily run over the turf with the strongest op2osi
ton the poor "Locofocos" can possibly parade.

Our advices from Washington are up to the Sd
inst. The Oregon questionable question of the
day-was, and had been under discussion for sew
eral days. The giving Of the notice seems to have
assumed contrary fate rather we fear it WILL to
what we had hoped. Our readers are well aware
that we are for giving tho notice to terminate the
joint occupancy of Oregon, and we have all along
strongly held the belief that it would be given.
We begin now, however. to have some doubt OF the
probability Of its passage through the Senate The
National Intelligencer of the Sd inst, says -" 1t
is not possible certainly to predict what will be the
specific action of Congress upon it. But. what
ever may be the final action of the House of Rep
resentatives in the case, we now feel entire conf
denee that the Senate will give its sanction to no
measure in relation to Oregon which would stand
in the way of peaceful and honorable adjustment
of the difference existing between the Governments
Of this country and Great Britain on this subject.

ODD FELLOWS, SCHOOL.

1t was our pleasure to be present on Friday last,
at the monthly examination at the Odd Fellows
School in this place. This institution our readers,
we suppose, are aware was established by the Or
der Of Independent Odd Fellows, and is under
their exclusive management and control. On the
last Friday in every month, the Trustees of the
School visit it for the purpose of ascertainng the
month. On such an occasion were we present on
last Friday, and we are but doing justice to our
own feelings as we'll as to the able teachers, when
we say that we were much pleased. The more
so as we had somehow taken up the idea that it
was impossible that one teacher could do justice to
such large number of pupils as each Of the teach
ers of this institution have under their charge. In
the male department there are about one hundred
pupils, and in the female about eighty. Mr.. Nc
Chimney, who has charge of the male department,
seems to be we'll fitted for the important and abo-
rious trust which the Trustees have confded to
him. OF course, from the fact that this was our
first visit we could not judge Of the comparative
progress Of the pupils, but say that the ex-
animation in the various branches was, to US,
deeply interesting, and did great credit both to
teacher and pupil. We were particularly struck
with the Iromptness and clearness with which
some of the larger boys demonstrated several prob
lens in Geometry. Indeed, the whole of the ex
hibtions on the "black board were very credita
BILE. The examination of the boys closed witt
} singing. This was something new to us in pro
miscuous school. 1t was really good, considerin,
that there must be great variety Of voice in sucl
large number Of boys.
> The female department. under the charge o
Miss Richardson, assisted by Miss Ellis, we visite,
in the afternoon of the same day. THIS is the frs
the school, and learn that she is much esteeme
as ateacher both by parents and children. Indeed
learn that the pupils of the school all love AM
respect her elder sister. When such is tn
{, case, will always answer for the progress of tn
scholars. The examination Of the female depar
: ment was very interesting. So many sweet. In
teigent young faces, all anxious to do their dut
: in the examination, presented one of the mo,
i During the examination, we saw some specimen
Of drawing that were really excellent for the sho
J. time the pupils have been practising. In Geogr,
D ply and in Grammar, the examination was ver
creditable. To see little children from six to te
:, years old, pointing out map. with the rapiit
Of lightning. the various towns and rivers. was r
tally surprising. and would have made many

All IN all we were much pleased. We wcu
