that is in US, and to impau information when in
our power, as we'll to our political opponents, as
to our friends. But we have lately met with an
instance in which this our benevolent aspiration
was frustrated; and we therefore state tho case
for the consideration of others, and will be obli
ged to any one who will reflect the desired light
An intelligent Democrat" of this city accos-

him elected, if possible.

paper that he says there will be no Constitution

the duties Of his Office until after that time.

School Meeting.

IL The FREE SCHooL QUEsrIoN which we an
nounced having been decided alirmatvely by the
people of School District No j. a few months since,
is again open one. AT the request of number
of treeholders who felt themselves aggreved at the
proceedings under the decision and who opposed
TO the imposition of the tax voted to be raised,
cond meeting was called and held on Saturday eve
ming last, for the purpose OF reviewing the former
action. This meeting was uunerously attended,
nearly 200 voters being present-and much warmth
OF feeling was exhibited on both sides. A report
from the school commissioners, giving detailed
account of their dongs, under the authority vested
in them. was presented and read. This report also
contained much valuable information in respect to
the advantages of the free school system proposed
for the misunderstanding most clearly that en- 50
far pecunarv considerations were involy ed,
there would be great public gam. On this point
lis easy for every voter to satisfy himsef-a re-
ference TO the statistical facts contained in the
report viii be sufficient to satisfy every candid
mind. But, Of course this was the least important
view Of tie question; the intellectual and moral
Piled demanded earnest and serious attention: and
| how could these wants he properly and adequately
| supplied in any other WAY than by the immediate
erection OF suitable and sufficiently conrnodious
house for the accommodation of all the children in
the district, ard Tie establishment OF a ree school
system, under efficient management? The com
misslorcrs entertained no doubts this question.
Their Investigations to the workings OF similar
systems abroad, in comparison with the select and
isolated systems led to settled conclusions. Every
man OF common intelligence who is at all familiar
with the history and progress of Education in any
part of the country must be satisfied that the system
proposed is the only true one--the only one which
will adequately meet the wants of this or any 9th
er School district or community This being set
tied can any voter or X.payer allow the patry
dollar and cent consideration which is urged against
this measure to control his action in the premises
overlooking the permanent and best interests OF tie
district. as connected with proper educational ID
cilitIes and the moral and intellectual cultivation
and inlproy emcut of its inhabitants No one with
a correct view Of bis duties ard rcsponsibih cs as
a man and a citizen can do it, But, when in addi-
ton TO all this the dollar and cent argument is also
on tie side of free schools but slight eStga-
ton will show what ground can there be for oppo-
siton! The report OF the commissioners is plain
and conclusive on all points discussed. 1t was
adopted by the meeting, but with amendment
that the question be again referred to the legal ,o-
tiers OF the district, to be decided FOR or AGAINST
by ballot The time for the meeting is MONDAY.
