The Albany Argus has characteristic dread of union
of the democratic party of New York Its interests lie
clearly in making few revengefu leaders sort of close
corporation that it trembles at the idea which contem-
plates restoration Of peace to the divided democracy D-
vision and discomfort its and cal

cratic party triumphant is thousand times terrible
the Argus than the fact of wing party dominant and
proscrpve because the revenge Of that paper and those
for whom it speaks, only be saated by continued
overthrows OF the democratic party Hence its persistent
efforts to extngush all indications of growing good feel

These efforts admixure of denuncatons of those

The cause of the separation between democrats of New York
has become at last mere personal quarrel between lead

Albany Argus performs its obligations with eager malevo-
ence conscious that the day that sees its mission Of dis
senson defeated in the reunion of the democratic party
will leave it, like ruined gambler in the midst of its des-

THE HON. HENRY MAY AND THE PUBLIC SCHOOL

Members of Congress, is generally known are EN-
powered TO nominate from their respective districts the
youths who to enjoy the advantages Of education

the families of personal and political friends aording
Congressman opportunities for receiving political support
which are rarely ever left pnimprpyea lhey are
over apt be closely importuued by wealthy and inuen-
tal citizens in behalf Of their grandson and nephews
the children Of their friends and vorite who with all
their connexions and ciqnes under implied obli-
CATION to make full returns in political party support
Such, doubt the position of Mr. May, who of
course, has many such friends in Baltimore.
Wlea b. was requested TO make such n nomination for
West Point remarkable that he should turn his back
all such applications Of the rich and influential and
acting under the conviction that he held the Office of repre-
sentative in Congress for the benefit of The people, and not
for the advantage of privileged few he directed his at
tentiop to the pphc sehopls Of Baltimore Hs applied TO
few rusy friends TO select through the agency of the
teachers several Of the most promising youths the city
who by their talents requirements and department
had rendered themselves conspicuous in the schools The
boys carefully selected in accordance with his wishes
and without their knowing their friends knowing the
object they brought before him. From his own OBJ
servaons and examinations out Of the number was
finally selected for the prefenent This boy whose origin
and parentage were unknown to Mr. May, proved be
of the widow of poor mechanic who had political
personal friends from whom Mr. May could expect avors
in return.
This is handsome compiment--ha paid the
public schools of Baltimore besides being rare and most
crediable display by politician and member of Congress
of the true principle of democracy May we not hope that
some day other member of Congress will be found in
Tennessee who will in the spirit seek confer
similar distinction upon some promising boy in city
schools What a spirit of wholesome emulation would
not the expectation inuse into the classes organizing
in our city high school ! have several lads in my
minds eye upon whom the distinction would be likely to
fall Boys this may yet happen At any rate, the name
of Henry May should be known and appreciated wherever
