GRAND HAVEN, MICHIGAN,
WEDNESDAY EVENING. OCT. 10. 1853.
school Matters.


The district school in this village is to contin-
ne under the charge of Miss BELL, whose servi-
ces have been secured for the ensuing year.
The next term will commence on Monday Oath
inst. Miss ELIZABETH GRIFFIN has been en-
ployed as an assistant.
The financial affairs Of the district are in an
entirely satisfactory condition. The money now
being raised by rate bill will be sufficient to pay
all existing Indebtedness. A large amount has
been expended during the year just ended, but
no nconsiderable portion has gone to lquidate
old liabilities. The actual cost of the school
has been $433. The primary school money, the
two mill tax, and the tax voted by the town,
amounted to $377 80. This, aside from old mat
tiers, would have left but $55 SO to be raised by
rate bill. The school itself may possibly be
somewhat more expensive during the coming
year, but if any rate bills should become neces-
sary they will be very low, as the money to be
cording to careful estimate, amount to $46l
or more than enough to have betrayed the cur
rent expenses of the last year.
The number of children in this village be-
tween the ages of four and eighteen years is
l49, yet the average daily attendance during the
year, has been but a fraction over "A. Some
have been. irregular in their attendance, and ma
ny have altogether neglected the opportunities
within their reach for obtaining common school
education. 1t is quite obvious, that with n few
honorable exceptions, there is great DISPOSE
ton on the part of parents to overlook educa-
tional matters. The great expense with which
it has been attended has been represented by
some as an insurmountable obstacle in the way
of providing schooling for their children. But
the facts we have presented are sufficient to
strip, for the future, this objection of its terror
and few moments reflection will suggest to
every man of common understanding multi
tude Of oft repeated truths, due appreciation
of which would be productive of an entirely diff
ferent state of things AS we have adverted to
this subject with design of making such OBJ
servations as would be most susceptible of
practical and useful application we suggest fur
Their, that the presence of every pupil on the first
day Of the term is of the utmost Importance,
as punctual attendance from the first is neces-
sary to secure, to full extent, the general pros
perty of the school as we'll as the rapid progress
of the individual scholar.

MONUMENT ON PLYMOUTH RocK-This truly
national enterprise, we are happy to state, is re-
ceivng an impetus, which augurs we'll for its ul-
innate construction. Many Of the" solid men,
both of Boston and New York, are contributing
literally for that purpose, and the public at large
evince much interest in the undertaking. 1t
was announced at the late Pilgrim celebration
that Hon. Moses H. Grinnell, of New York, had
pledged $1,000 to advance the work Since that
time the Hon. Abbott Lawrence has donated
$500 for the same purpose, and it is understood
that other wealthy gentlemen of our large cities
stand ready to give material aid for so patriotic
an object 1t would therefore appear that at no
very distant day, Plymouth Rock will be graced
by an appropriate commemorative token of the
noble deeds of those brave pioneers, who upon
that spot planted the foundation of mighty re-
republic. Boston Transcript.

THE EASTERN QUESTION.

The best and most concise statement that we
have seen of the Russo Turkish question is con-
tanned 10 the annexed paragraphs from the Lon
don Morning Post Of Sept lst fThe fact tbsS
the Emperor of Russia has played false game
throughout is but too manifest. We trust the
givings out of the Post respecting the action Of
England will be verified Free Press.
The whole aspect Of the Eastern question is
suddenly and completely changed. Russia as
signed rs reason for the rejection Of the'$urk-
ish notifications, that to receive them at tho,
hands of divan, after the Emperor had accededA
to note considered satisfactory by the media
ting powers, would be incompatible with his.
dignity; but since that refusal, Russia has adj
dressed to the four powers statement which
has certainly been received in England with pro-
found establishment. In giving the reasons for
the rejection of the notifications, the Car treats
fully of the Vienna note itself He considers
that note, not as the four powers intended, but
as the very opposite, the very antipodes Of the
Menschikoff note, but as identical in result with
that famous document.
The question, therefore, stands at this mo.
ment, not merely rs it did when Menschikotf
sailed from Constantinople, but with all the ag-
gravation of the failure of months Of negotiation,
of cumulative excitement and constant double
dealing. Turkey was right when she refused
to sign the note. The Emperor Of Russia by
his present act has placed Turkey completely in
the right, and himself fatally in the wrong
Turkey must now sign the original note because
the Gar misrepresented it.
The notifications are become n necessityand
the refusal of Russia is positive. 1t is now to
be seen whether Russian ambition and Russian
aggression are to triumph. The Porte has yet
to learn that the Western Powers have not less
resolution than Russia. Palmerston, Russell,
Clarendon-these are men that know how 10
guide England in the path of duty-and finally.
united with France, we SHAH see the faith of
treaties and the independence of our ally upheld
with an energy which, if unsuccessful in obtain
ing its end by peaceful means and moral inau-
ence, knows how to respect and prosecute with
rgor the alternative which it can no longer

LIBERATION OF KoszTA.-We were not wrong
yesterday we fnd in surmisng that the visit Of
the Austrian Ministerto Mr.. Marcy at Albany re-
lated to the disposal Of the Koszta case. We
now learn that the Austrian Government about
month ago, consented to the liberation Of Kosz-
ia, on condition that he should be put on board
of an American vessel and return directly to the
United States; and the Austrian Minister at
Constantinople was instructed to communicate
this determination to the American Minister,
Mr.. Marsh. This consent to the liberation of
Koszta was given, we understand, in conse-
quence of the recovery of the Hungarian regain,
as related in our last Paris letter and in the
French papers 1t appears that as Koszta was
one Of kossuhs party when The Hungarian
crown, &C., were taken from Buda, it was sup
posed that he could give information Of the dis
position of the articles which might lead to their
recovery; and this we learn was the motive, or
one of the motives, which induced his seizure at
Smyrna. About the last Of August the missing
regaia was discovered, as our readers are al
ready informed, near Orsova, just without the
Hungarian border, to which Kossuth first fed
The recovery of the crown and jewels, together
with the necessity of relieving the French Con-
sui General from the disagreeable engagement
to keep Koszta, induced the Austrian Govern
ment to consent to his release, on the condition
stated above. We SEE it further mentioned, in
the N. Y. Herald that, in consenting to this ar
rangement, the Austrian Government reserves
the right Of considering Koszta an Austrian SUBJ
ject, if he shall return to Turkey, SO long ~
he shall not be Invested of his native nationality
in regular and lawful manner"

UTAH-The st. Louis Republican has spe-
cia dispatch from Fort Independence, dated
Sept. 3Otb, which says the Salt Lake mail arriv-
ed there on Wednesday, containing some items
of news from the Salt Lake Valley.
Some excitement exists in consequence of
disturbances from the Utah Indians and Indian
traders.
Gov. Young had issued proclamation urging
the military to be prepared at moments warn
ing, and prohibiting all persons trading powder
and lead to the Indians.
Fifty men were sent out to take old man Bird
ger, because it was thought he aided the Indi-
ans; and fifty more to take the traders at Green
river. Bridger fled to the mountains, and they
took possession of his store, and when reinforce
ed, intended to hunt down all offenders. They
may have hot work before they are done.
The elections were over, and Bernhesel is re-
turned as delegate to Congress.
1t was determined in Council to surround the
city with wall and dich-mud wall and pickets.

rick had concluded treaty with the Sioux and

THE POTATO RoT.--From what we have seen

has done far less damage this year than was at
one time apprehended. All the injury inflicted
was accomplished in a very few days, about a

but the great majority, so far as our information
extends, are but little injured. The crop, on the
whole, will be good one. So at least we think.
