The Common School law as passed oy Tue ia 70.
Assembly requires the School fund to be n'V'eu III
each County c1ually among the Districts anu !
give what suppose to have been the ooJecG ot 'ns
provision. though such object Is only iihple"I
Many Districts need alterations, and IN some Cou''-
ties it would be we'll to make all the DISTRICTS ne"
and certainly if every County could be lt'' OH iito
Districts nearly equal, and of convenient siA" io'
one School it would be vast improvement 40,
soute EQUALITY in the Districts is Impossible, anu
not to be desired but large number CT Charmeh
and experienced officers in every part OF the olte,
east, west and middle, have expressed to me the
opinion that it is possible 10 divide the CoHntes III
nearly if not all localities into Districts OF lnod,
crate size. Equality in facilities 9f eFNc0tt"a, anu
not merely in money, is what each child ana cach
District ought to claim and this is best attained by
having Districts not too large or too small lor oi''

But have been decidedly of opinion, and have
so expressed myself that changes on inns SUBJECT
had better for the present be lett to the voluntary
action of the County Boards under the adVlce OF me
Superintendent, and have used cXertIons, ana III
some instances with most happy results, TO get thesc
Boards to lay of and alter the Districts with more
system, and on the plan OF having but one Schooi
in each | full; believe that in time every County
will come up to a uniform system on the principle
indicated; but the work will advance by degrees,
and be effected as light and more accurate inorma-
ton are diIfused. The object of the Assembly,
wise and GOOD one if have correctly stated it, cam
not fear be at once accompliShcd and if this end
TO be aimed at is obtained it could not be prac-
ticable divide the money according to the number
of Districts So divide, allowing each District to
remain as it is, would not be just, and feel per,
fectly sure that the Legislature never contemplated
any such idea.

LETTER FROM NEW YORK,
New YoRK Nov. 90. Is


1t is now evident that had the hards and solts uni
ted Mt late state election the Hndoos could not
have elected single candidate The hartls see their
error and the more sensible and practicable of them
have resolved to make amends for their back sliding
and vagaries that the disciples of Ned Buntline
this moment seriously alarmed at the prospect
of reconciliation.
No ,sooner was the result Of the election known
than there immense plaster Paris bust of
George Law set up in the Aston House bar-room.-
Surely the know-nothng artist that got up this
"bust" deserves well of his country. The face is
something like what you would see on Dutch sign
board, tobacco box. 1t has to be washed every
morning, to be viewed by of admirng know
nothingsy-the malicious Jcsuits coming at night,
and dauhing it over with charcoal and candle grease
The Express pays Il very high tribute to the
Z" Irish Protestants" who vptcd the know-nothing
ticket. / presume you have an idea of what those
protcstants" are They are hel(anatical, ignorant
to whose humble petition to England, Moore, who
knew them, well introduces the following character
istic logic
Z" That forming one-sevenIh within a few fractions

This is the class of Irish ProteStants the Express
calls "rcspcctable," "intellgcnt" &c. Professionals
whose only religion is to the pope and then
"the papsts" and to bctray the country that gave
them birth through :" loyalty" to England. 1t is Il
libel on the real Irish Protcsants here them
of know nothing<m; they scom the thing as much

GREAT WORDS FROM A SMALL STATE.-When the leg
slature of Vermont was about to adjourn the other
day, Lieutenant Governor FLETCHER could not dis
miss the Senate without impressing their minds
the necessity of keeping the great ISSUE of slavery
constantly in view and he said to them in his fare
we'll speech.
IS Senators will pardon me, trust, at time like
this, for single political remark. In my view, the
ISSUE the material issue, before the country is free
dom or slavery, and that freedom claims the
highest services and largest sacrifices of all her true
and devoted sons; and that the frcemen of Vermont
should stand together un6roken phaLanr, and set
tie this issue, and arrange other matters afterwards
The phalanX" that Vermont can present will not
seriously terry the other States She has voted her
self out of the Union of times to the
regret OF nobody in Particular, but she returns and
annually passes string Of resolutions about ques
ton that does not Concern her in any manner We
doubt whether, if she should some day set herself
off to Canada, Uncle Sam would send force to fetch
her back. Among the resolutions considered by the
Legislature this year " that in consideration

WALKERS PLANS IS CENTRAL AMEF1cA-A plan
has already been started for the revival of the old
Central American Confederation, which is likely to

on the invitation of Gen. Walker, sent commissi-

feet, and Walker has accepted them. This invita-
ton is to be extended to Costa RIGA and Guatemala,
and unless they accept it, the forces of the three
other combined States, it is said, will be used to
