THE SPIRIT OF The DEMoCRACY.-
We have seen many of our true. hearted
political friends during the election excite.
ment. So far from Responding al the re
suit, they seem to he prouder than ever
of their impershabIe principles. They
feel that a new responsibility has now
been derolved upon them. They feel
that the country will look 10 them TO pre-
serve her interests from the ruthless
schemes OF unprincipled men. They feel
that. however The clamor of the hour may
overcome the good cause, a returning
sense Of Justice among the masses of the
people will vindicate thai caIrse from The
assaults oil federalism. and dissipare all
the decisions of the opposition. There
is no democrat who is not now prouder
of his position then ever. and Who is hot
ready To do battle to morrow under his
beloved Old banner. This is the spirit
hat NUT make US invincihfe. II xnaSgi

FREE DEMocRACY.-The following is
the first. resolution of series recently
passed by the Free Sellers in this city:
Resolred, That the earth with IFS fruits,

Fhe Result.

The National intelligencer Of yester-
day morning claims the election of Gen
Zachary Taylor as President OF the Uni
ted States. We know OF no cause to
gainsay this proclamation. On the con,
tTary, the teIegraphs of yesterday deprive
rs Of one prop after anotker. North ar

see, all said to be gone:
'.What though our maste 6e all blown overheard,
Our anchors from their fact moorings dragged,
And half our sailors buried in the auol-
Yer lives our pilot sti!l.''
We must, then, "give up the ship" but
our flag still flies. The great principles
which constitute the elements Of the dem
Ocratic party are still inscribed upon il.
Let not a man Of as despair o! the repub
lie, but rally arOand O1r imperishabEe
principles for ever and ever. These prin
eiples have survived the storm; and in
1hem "yet lives our Pilot STILL" We are
defeated, but not overwhelmed. We have
lost; but let US keep a good heart, and
''pick our fiints again." James K. Polk
bands over the reins to his successor

in its original i'uFity. Who despairs?-

Educational Reform in Holland.


Educational Reform in Holland.
One of the measures now being considered by
the Dutch Legislature, as a necessary concession
to the people In these revolutionary times, is the
abollshrng of the present unfair restrictions on
education
At present, and 1t has thus been since 1906,
though man has passed the required examination
as proof of his competency to the task OF edu-
eating youth, he is prevented by law from estab-
fishing school. The consequence Is, that there
are now many under masters, that the profession
is inundated with them. They are badly paid by
principals, and are not allowed by law to be their
own masters.
The Legislature propose taking off these restric-
tons in a great measure, by allowing every men,
Der of the profession, when he has passed his
examination, to begin school on his own ac-
count. This is just, to one and all though the
present established masters and the clergy OF the
reformed church are bitterly opposed to these
measures. However, they will be carrIed-there
is not the shadow of doubt. The contrary result
of the deliberations of the States General would be
accompanied, il is feared, by demonstration on
the part of the people, by no means of a salutary
