New CANDIDATE FOB THE Presidency
Col. Forney, the clever and able editor Of the
Pennsylua MAN, is not without vaulting ambi-
ton. "The governing Of the United States" he
says, "seems to be very simple and easy pro-
cess" What follows? Why, that he can per-
form it, Of course! But hear his proofs:
1T would seem to require no attention either
from the President or any of his ministers. 1t
is known that since the adjournment of Con-
gress in March last, up to the present time
they have scarcely been in Washington for
week at q time"
Has the Colonel forgotten that pe are here, and
that the President and Cabinet enjoy the adj
vantage Of our advice and guidance? Who at
tended to the important affairs of Cuba in the
absence Of the President and his Cabinet, and
kept Mr. Stuart's dependents in order, and pre-
vented their declaration of independence, during
that time We did. Who took care of Mr.
Corwin's reputation and Gardiner and Mears
claims perquisites, while he was in Ohio We
did. Would we do as much for Col. Forney,
were he PRESIDENT Not : bit Of it. We are
pledged to see the present dynasty to their
journeys end, and once there We shall give up
this business of governing the nation. 1t is
troublesome ; and as Mr.. Fillmore and his min
listers every now and then take up the notion of
meddling in the affairs themselves, of course
there are some tangled and complicated matters
to be looked into. Congress may next winter
do something in this way, but not enough to
get all right for Mr.. Fillmore's successor. We
think that if the Colonel is wise he will silence
the promptings of his ambition, and remain in
the honorable position be now so nobly graces

" Treason doth never prosper-what's the reason2
When II once proepers tits no longer treasonln

/" Treason doth never prosper-what's the reason2
When it once prospers tits no longer treason!"
The above couplet has been quoted by n con-
temporary who wants to know, if Lopez and his
men had been successful, whether they would
not have been good fellows and patriots instead
of pirates and traitorsf
We have never been enamored Of the military
character of Lopez, says the Pe,nsyloanian,
though his courage can scarcely be doubted.
But he is defeated and dead and how soon the
censorious read his faults in his failure. "Lo-
per deserved his fate" says the New York Err
press. Poor fellow he was not the winner in
the game; and is it not somewhere written Of
fashionable morals, that cit is not q sin to gam
BILE, but it is q grievous sin to lose 7" What q
wondrous alchemist is success. How it changes
those whom the world would call robbers into
genuine heroes how it stiles the computations
Of tender consciences how it convinces the
contumacious! Suppose Lopez had been a
victor instead Of victim-what then2 The
metropolitan press would have hailed in him o
new Cortez; France would have compared him
to Napoleon; and America, to Lafayette; and all
would have been forgiven by pleased and fat
tered public. He has fallen and so low, that
there are none to do him justice. Let us all
abuse Lopez "He deserved his fatel" He
should have been drawn and quartered; his
body burnt, and the ashes strewn in the wind.
What right had he to 90 to Cuba to punish the
Castilian ut-throats-and fails "He deserved
his fate I" -

PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF WAsHINGroH.--We are
enabled to add the following to the items we
have already given of the proceedings of the
Board Of Trustees on Wednesday evening:
COL Randolph, from the committee to exam
inc the Treasurers accounts, reported that they
had been examined and found to have been
carefully kept, and recommended their appro-
val, which recommendation was unanimously
adopted by the Board
1t was resolved, unanimously, to request the
Councils to add second story to the Third
District school house, so as to provide for the
separation of the seres, as in oil the other dis
trict schools, and to authorize the appointment
of o female teacher for the department thus
created and to authorize the Board to appoint
female assistant in Primary School, No. l.,
First District, and one also in the male Prima-
ry Of the Second District, at salary of $500
per annum--it being understood that it will
involve no additional expense for fuel, rent,
&c. the school rooms aforementioned being
both sufficiently large to accommodate two
teachers
In view of the higher grade Of study, and
sA'0 Auoi0uoCu uuucs anu reSPonSipliIoo uesoi'-
ing on the ladies in charge of the female de-
partments Of the district schools, it was re-
solved unanimously, on motion of Mr.. Abbot
to recommend the Councils to increase their
salaries to $500 each per annum. They at
present receive but $3.50, the same as teachers
Of the primary schools.
Some conversation took place respecting the
appointment of assistant teachers, and the hope
was expressed, that, at the end Of the present
year, there might be presented candidates who
should be found well qualified from the female
department of the district schools.
