THE SCHOOL QUESTION.

Our Common School system is very strong
in the popular regard. Wherever, in the late
Municipal Elections, there was even a suspi-
cion of disafection toward it, il proved fatal to
the suspected. Thus DETROIT is Demo-
cratic city, yet the regulars were utterly
routed by an Independent movement, started
only just before the Election, based on the
assumption that the regulars were secretly
committed to the project of separate Schools
for Catholics, to draw their share of the School
Moneys And so AUBURN is a strongly Wing
city, yet Benz F. Hall, the late popular Wing
Mayor, was badly beaten just now by ThOs. Y.
How, Jr. Dem. on like assumption that Mr..
Hall favored the concession of separate Public
Schools for Catholics.
We note these facts as signs of the times
We rejoice that the Common School cause is
so strongly entrenched in the public confidence
and affection, and We entreat its leading, infu-
entail friends to strive evermore TO maintain
and extend its popularity. 1t is by no means
sufficient that a majority should uphold our
Schools; we must labor to render them hearth
ly acceptable to all. Be careful that neither
Catholics nor others have any real and valid
ground Of objection to the Common Schools as
sectarian and PROSECUTING. 1t is far easier to
preserve their popularity than, once lost, to
regain it. Beware of the temptations of un-
alleged Prosperity

FRoM WAsHsoTos-There ia virtue in an
"if" Mr.. Mason, the Chairman Of the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations in the Senate,
spoke yesterday in reply to Mr.. Clayton on the
Bulwer and Clayton Treaty. Mr.. Mason was
very decided IN his declarations that Great
Britain should be held strictly to her treaty
obligations. And i the Belize were in Central
America, giving to that geographical term the
signifcation intended by the contracting
parties to the treaty in question: then Great
Britain should be compelled to disavow all in
tention to Colonize the Bay Islands. But We
infer, from Mr. Mason's remarks, that the
question whether this be so, is By no means so
clear to him as the designs Of England to
Colonize those islands. There is an "if" in
the case, which can be used as very convent
ent bridge to escape any unpleasant result of
talking big, on the part of the administration
or its friends and supporters.
We are glad to observe that the preliminary
instructions TO the investigation Of the Gar
diner Case are all removed, and that the case
will now go on on its merits 1t is likely,
therefore, that We shall now soon know the
true state of the case. We observe that both
Mr.. COrwin and Mr.. Evans are on the spot

the establishment Of Central American indie
pendsnce il h.s alssJs belonged to Honduras,
and no pretence TO claim it for any other
prmrietor was ever thought Of till No
vember, I847, when Mr.. Walker, n. B. VI.
Consul General in Mosquito, being on FL
bustiering excursion with the frigste Alarm,
suddenly descended on this unsuspecting place
and ordered the inhabitants to haul dewr the
Honduras flag and acknowledge the King OF
the Mosquitoes Is their sovereign. This they
utterly refused to do, and Mr.. Walker not
daring to lombard them went off With the
Alarm, first having set up the Mosquito flag
On lonely beach without the hsrbOr. For
this escspsde he received from his superiors
8 more or less serious reprimand, and there
the matter ended for the time. If the report
from New. Orleans is not exaggerated, his at
tempt is now renewed, the triumphant expert
ment with the Bay Islands, having probably
developed the taste for further operations
in the same line. This tune, however,
the demand is made in earnest with
bombs and round shot to enforce compliance.
But willie this affair Of Mr.. Walker in lS47,
and the equally unjustifable seizure of the
Bay Islands concur to render possible just
such an outrage as this present reported act Of
burglary, it is proper to wait for further and
more certain details before forming decided
opinion on the case In truth there is slight
improbabiity about it. If England is deter
mined 10 have Truxillo why should she resort
to so very transparent a fraud as that it be-
longs by any sort of right TO the Mosquitoes
Why not say that Honduras owes thirty, forty
or fifty thousand dollars TO British subjects,
and that having already waited too long for
payment, the Imperial Government have con-
Guided to pay themselves BY taking that place :
Certainly this would be the more respectable
and more natural way of the two, and we ac-
cOTdiDgly suspect that the rumor is incorrect.
Meanwhile, whether England has seized
Truxillo or not, it is certain that she has taken
the Bay Islands by q highway process and in
violation Of her own treaty obligations. We
wait with anxiety to see what course our new
Administration Will take with that transaction,
from which the capture of Truxillo, as report
ed, does not essentially differ. We have had
a great deal Of talk does anybody feel sure
that We shall now stand up to 5i' 403

ELISHA WHITrLEsEN,
The Syracuse Star has the following in an
Editorial letter from Washington:


"Mr ELISHA WmrrLEsEY, First Controller Of the
Treasury has resigned This announcement will be a
most welcome one to all parts OF the country. No tears
wlbe shed the Ices of this officer, will the ID D
psItments be closed in honor OF his retirement We
ventUI 10 say that other man in the Government
service during the Wing Administration (uness IL be
Thomas Cogwin) has been the occasion of so much
trouble and dissatisfaction as this same Mr. Elisha Whit
tlesey He seemed 10 regard himself the great gun
Of the Government and a. being clothed with more
powers snd responsibilities than all the world and the
rect OF mankind" else He claimed and go far as to
create delays in business until successor should take
his place. exercised both administrative aud Judicial
powers He revi ed and set aside the aduii auons OF
L. Circuit and District Judges and until threatened
with removal from Office. doied the determinations and
denied The prerJ gB'ves OF the United Saies Supreme
Court in bank session. so also he clashed with mem
bers Of the Cabinet in the exercise OF their duties and
questions of law refused 10 recognize and abide by
the opinions of the Attorney General and the United
States. This great man who knows so much m0rethan
everybody else ssy has resigned and Il IS not alto
eether improbable that he viii be compelled to .tay re.
signt IN political obscury I'LL death shall gather him
% he fathers Ii Is TO the Wings n consong fact that
Whiidesey was not one OF Mr. Fillmores appointees"
MIR WHIrrLEsEY, We fear, has Outliged
his generation. Yet there is great deal to be
said in palliation of his unamiabe peculiarities.
He came into the public service before the Re-
evolutionary patriots had died out of it, and
when it was deemed rather disreputabe to
help yourself out of the Treasury by the hun
dred thousand dollars. In his day, cOnstruc-
tive Mileage had not been invented, and a
Member of Congress who would charge for
thousand miles travel to Washington when
the actual distance was less than six hundred,
would have been accounted no credit to bis dis.
trict or the capitol. Things have greatly
changed since, and Mr. Whittlesey, being now
well stricken in years, has failed to change
with them-yery much to his own discomfort.
He still cherishes the vulgar, absurd notion
that stealing is stealing, whether the money
be taken out of one mans drawer or the whole
Peoples strong box, and that a public officer
wto sticks on charges here and there in order
to increase his power Of suction on the Treas
ury, is to be resisted and exposed by those
whom the People pay to scrutinize and sift
charges, as COmptrOllers aud Auditors. Hence
be has drawn down upon himself the intensest
hatred of large class Of Ancient Pistols ike
our Syracuse eotemporsry. We wish they may
not affect his digestion nor his slumbers.

yiso inevitably comes. What man. what party
desires to have the country again eenvulsed
with that Does Gen Pierce, with sll his
talk about annexation in the abstract Would
be like to face that issue. and peril upon is the
chances ofhis party and his own ambition
But il is not well to cultivate excessive
confidence in the premises. Preposterous As
the annexation Of six millions Of Indians and
two millions of the mixed Mexican race, may
seem. with an unexampled anti-slavery agita-
ton for its accompaniment, it is possible that
it may yet be forced upon Us By the present
administration. with Gen. Santa Ana for its
sccomphce. Let there not be too much reli-
ance on the patriotic common sense, or even
on the enlightened self interestwhich some may
attribute to those now in power at Washington.
The crisis may be hurried to decision before
the current four years are past.
For ourselves, We say frankly that Annex
alton is one article Of our creed but il is not
the annexation of putrid and dissolving mass
to a wholesome one. We believe in the union
of nations, but as the result Of their healthy
development and vigorous maturity, not of
their decay and death. When each has
achieved for itself industry, wealth, education,
independence. popular freedom and equality,
then they may advantageOusly combine under
one federal constitution. Up to that time re-
lations of amity and Offices of good will are all
that ought TO exist between them.

ENGLAND IN HONDURAS.

Our telegraphic dispatches from New.Or-
lesns yesterday announced that q British
frgate had anchored of Toapillo,H in Honda-
ras, and forcibly taken possession of that place.
and that the sound Of cannonade had been
heard At Limas, probably from repetition
there Of the same process.
The place meant by this laundering dispatch
10 undoubtedly Truxillo, the chief sea port of
Honduras q town with about two thousand in
habitant', and some considerable Notifications
remaining from early Spanish times. In fact
it was one Of the frst places on the Continent
discovered and settled BY the Spaniard,.
Columbus himselfhavng touched there. Since
