School directors may establish German Schools
under the Common school law, or cause German
and English to be taught in the same school,
but the Boarl Of Directors cannot be required
to cause German TO be taught. They should
consult the wishes of the people Of their district
o!Germans desire to have their children insruc-
ted IN their own language, their wishes should
be gratiied. The directors have exclusive jorls-
diction over this subject and from their decision
upon it there is NJ appeal, the Superintendent

OUR ELECTION.

Our returns of the election on Tuesday,
are not so full as we wish they were, but such
as We have portend result on the State tick
ct not greatly differing from last year. The
observance of the other party has, no
doubt, in some sections, tended to bring out a
fuller vote against US than if no divorce had
taken place. In the House, from our section,
it is much better for the Wings. Orleans and
Caledonia Counties stand ten or dozen bet
ter for the Wings in the Legislature than last
year, giving the promise of a large majority
in that body on the side of the Wigs. We
lose (probably) one Senator in Essex, and
gain two in Caledonia.
Governor Williams was elected by about
1900 Majority last year.

Mr.. CHADWICK A few DAYS since our
ewes were dazzled by the appearance of fla
ming handbills. announcing that on Friday,
Sept 81. might be expected magnificent en-
tcrtainment, to consist of-lst, Speeches from
distinguished Democrats. and I'd. "A Grand
Rally" All were on tptoe Of expectation,
and anxiously waiting for o'clock, the event
ful hour which was to reveal to US all the
wonders that had been forctold. The time
arrived. and to the supreme deli ght of all
,,icr1. uncOucerned Observers. the rally"
along with it. for without exaggeration it may
l.. truly said that such rally was never be-
fore witnessed in this rcgion-nay, not even
hy the oldest inhabitant." We could not
but imagine that our ewes were blessed with
si.ht of one of the triumphal marches of
an ancient Roman army.
FIRST came the marshal of the day, portly
"Drmirl -raf." who might well have been mis-
taken for the brdre Gen. Pierce himself. were
it not that his energetic frame bespoke any
thing but taintness' Following him in the
train was the band-a full modern orchestra,
consisting of one fte and tom drums'!
Marching up before the church by way Of a
back street noble display was made of the
ffty-tro locofocos of our county, who were
faithful to their cause. After an lawful
pause the scene was changed.
"Rig-a-dig -dic-goes the drum.
Round the corner see them come.
Bells are pcaling-dogs are barking
BOYS are thro' the ranks skv-larking-
Drums are beating-"fifc are sqr!eaking-
Silence thcre-the capt'ns speaking
Orders being given to 90 for the speakers
a few ret-rans volunteered. and with two of
the canine race as rear-guards, they moved
on to the hotel. But the speakers, not appre
eating their services, absolutely refused sucl
an escort, and compelled them to return
elon', in chagrin and disappointment.
So much for the grand rally" and as il
one of the speeches ample opportunity wa
gwen for the cheers of each party, We vii
be silent and say nothing of the unjust an
'crr''ons taun', practiced by another speak
er against our gallant Scott. Suffice it t
say that he received his Just reward the fol
loving evening in the cutting rcbukcs of hi
opponents. Yours, V.&X

The TRIAL OF CHEvALIER WIKoFF-We have re.
ce1ved from our Italian correspondents full report ain
choice Italian, of the trial of Chevalier Wikof in &c.
noa 1t is now undergoing translation, and probably
tomorrow we shall be able to give the whole of that
curious unique and interesting trial our columns to-
gether with statement made by Wikoff himself the
view which he takes of the affair from beginning to
end WikoH alleges that British Consul in Sa iaia
probably from political affnties with the HOLY ALI
ance and opposition to Lord Pamerston-exered all his
influence to procure his conviction and sentence but
that he expects to receive pardon from the King of
Sardinia in very few weeks, provided his Majesty be
taton OF pardon may be somewhat doubtful particular
y since the late change i'll the British ministry has
thrown the influence of that government into the hands
OF Austria and Russia Wikoff believes that his trial
and conviction have been produced from the same des
potc political influence in Italy which refused Kossuth
landing at Spozzia, and journey from Marseilles
across France. OF course, it is
