Webster's Quarto Dictionary in
our District Schools.

1t will be seen by reference to the proceedings
of the House, on Monday, resolution was in
troduced by Mr. Butler of Jamaica, to furnish a
copy of this Dictionary to each School District
in the State--one half of the expense to be borne
by the district, the other to be paid from the
State School Fund, provided the book may be
had at a cost not exceeding four dollars per copy.
BY reference to the Auditors report Just pub
shed It appears, there remains of the School
Fund of our State Of which we once boosted
but the most Of which misappropriated to
building a magnificent State House, only about
enough to make this small though valuable gift
to the children Of our State, for whose benefit
that fund was intended.
The Legislatures of Massachusetts and New
York have appropriated so much Of their rcspcc-
tive School Funds as was nee ssary to place
copy of this Dictionary in every District School
in those States, aud the friends of the present
measure believe that in no other way can the
Legislature of Vermont make so proper a cispo-
sition of the remnant of our own School Fund.

advocate OF the measure In Massachusetts. " with

Of very limited MEANS can secure a home for

CONCLUDED.
Something has been gained towards pre-
venting litigation. and diminishing the ex-
pense attending the recovery of debts, by
the enlargement of the jurisdiction of
Justices, aud restricting the right of APP
peal This remedy might doubtless be
further extended with advantage TO both
creditors and debtors. There is no reason
why debtor should be put to fifteen or
twenty dollars cost IN case where he does
not deny the plaintiffs claim, and makes no
defence ia the suit. Aud there does not
seem to he any reason why defendant
should be allowed an appeal IN case where
he does not pretend there Is any defence. |
The law presumes that a party may be IN
uuousy affected by the judgment of an III
terror court, and, therefore, has provided
that he may appeal to a higher tribunal,
where II Is presumed he Is more likely toi
obtain Justice. But 1t IS only IN cases IA
which party feels himself "ggricUcd by
Judgment that the law contempmes that an
appeal will be had But how can 1t be sad

does not pretend that he has any What

Dhat Can be Done for The Fliibusiers2 The
Providence journal suggests "a project for these
phhanthroplsts, that we hasten TO ansier it TO
our columns, M the hope that some friend of the
FI.uuslers wall see that they nave the benefit
OF the suggestion:
Something must be done for the Fillbusters.
The Northern provin es of Mexico are hardly
worth robblng; and though our trenty obhga-
tons SIT upon as as lightly as lovers vows. It is
not worth the cost OF breaking them for the bar
rem territory the miserable population. aud alto
gether wretched country which lies on the other
side OF the Rio Grande Cuba is a very tempt
inc prize, but that flower is too thickly surround-
ed by thons. ! he Sandwich Islands are so anx-
lous for annexation, that there would be no op.
position, and hence no excitement m an INVASION.
The population Of st. Domingo does not suit The
iilhou~terng enterprise, aud the 3r sh lion
growls from Jamaica and Canada. ~ bat then
shall the FIllbustcrs do aud how sh4li they

tendencies of progress Are the free and en-
hghtened citizens OF the Southwest 10 be cut of
from all chance Of fight? Is the whole world
TO settle down INTO a state of lgnominious peace,
ana shall every man manly set himself to at
tending to his own business? Assuredly not ;
some outlet must be found for the irrepressible
splnt Of manifest destiny"
In this emergency, we think that the Kingdom
of Naples affords fine opportunity. The gov
eminent Is the worst, with the possible excep-
ton of Rome, on the face of t,e civilized globe.
There are more wrong and injustice, more oppres,
sion and wlckedness, IN that government than in
any other of which we have any account There
can BE- no doubt of the sympathy of the people
Of that country with any plan for the overthrow
Of the detestable and horrible rule under which
they suffer- Now we think the FIllibusters
might with the very general appreciation Of the
civilized world, and greatly to the elief of this
country turn their attention to Naples If the
leaders who have urged ON the Cuban expedl-
tlon the editors, and orators, and spectators in
Cuban bonds, loW 20 loith them, we think the
government would lind IT impossible to withstand
The public sympathy in favor OF their departure.
They might land ON the island of Sicily, where
few thousand Yankee muskets and Western
rifles, aided by the popular feeling, would make
stand which all the Bourbons IN Naples could
not resist BE the issue as II might, the result
could hardly fail TO be fortunate one, fortunats
for Naples If It succeeded, and fortunate for this
country, SO long as the Fihbusters did not re-
turn.
