A Special Election was held yesterday in
the First Ward, TO supply vacancy in the board
Of common council, occasioned by the death Of
o. s. Pane The Rev. Charles A. Davis was
elected. the vote being as follows: Charles A.
Davis, 800; Luther R. Smoot, 1913; William H.
Perkins, l..
The successful candidate addressed his friends
from his door steps, thanking them for this re-
newed mark oftheir confidence. He would not
say, as did the Mayor of Washington, We have
met the enemy, and they are ours" because he
did not consider those who voted against him his
enemies. He viewed the result as test of princi-
pie, and not of friendship; having thrown out his
banner, with the inscription of civil and religious
and constitutional liberty on its folds.
The gentleman was enthusiastically cheered by
his friends.
The election resulted in ananti-" know-n nothing
triumph
There was much excitement throughout the
day. the respective friends Of each candidate
striving earnestly for the victory.

Religious and Natal Tests.--The board of
school commissioners Of the city of Baltimore, on
Thursday, passed the following resolution, by
vote of--yeas IS, nays2
Resoiced, That in the election of the teachers Of
the public schools of Baltimore, the board of COM
missioners should not superadd TO the qualfca-
lions OF the teachers, any qualifications involving
religious test, or nativity and birth, such pro-
cedure not being contemplated or authorized by
the acts of assembly authorizing the establish
ment Of the schools, not recognized by the ordi-
nances of the mayor and city council, regulating
the schools; is in opposition TO the provisions of
the Constitution of the United States, and the bill
of rights Of the State of Maryland, and is deslruc-
tive and subversiyc of the best interests Of the
schools and ofthe institutions Of our country"
This resolution, was passed pending the nomi-
nation Of DIR. McIntyre (who happened to be born
in foreign land) to the professorship of mathema-
tics aud astronomy in the male central high school,
He was elected, having received fifteen Of the
eighteen votes cast.
We aude to these facts for the purpose of say
ing, in connection, that there are certain infuen-
ces at work in the community to effect such OBJ
jects as the Baltimore school commissioners have
emphalicaly condemned.
The trustees and officers of the board of trus.
tees for the public schools Of Washington are,
with two or three exceptions, Prote-iants, but
burning desire exists In certain quarters TO re.
move this minority for the sole cause of their
ligious belief They have never permitted This 10
