Gus committee from each branch 0

jeet of Public Education, in this State
They assembled by weekly over d Goa
| fire in the Office Of the State Superin
tendent, as a joint committee, and not
withstanding the valuable aid in wa1
| Of suggestions, received from that learn
ed functiouary actually labored fol
sixty days and brought forth nothing
The fact Of the matter, was that The
learned assembly aforesaid, was too
much engaged with contested elections
and Cat Island claims, to give mucl
attention to ap unimportant matter
like that of Public Education. Veri
", 1t would have been to the honor
as well as pecuniary advantage Of
this people had the entire system
from its head down--been abolished
That the office of State Superintend
ent is,,a mere sinecure-it needs DC
other evidence for the people, than The
fact that the gentleman who was se-
lected by preference of the dominant
party to fill it; has SO far, during bis
term Of office, been living on the Red
River, editing there very respectable
and influential Democratic newspaper,
The proposition to abolish The sys-
tenn, was met with the old fogy argu-
ment Of "a constitutional objection. y
That instrument Of writing says: "Tbe
General Assembly shall establish Free
Public Schools throughout The State,
and shall provide for their support
The same document says:
There shall be elected Superin.
tendent of Public Education, who shall
hold his Office for the term Of two
years. His duties shall be prescribed
by law, and shall he receive such com
pensation as the Legislature may d.
rect provided, that The General As
sembly shall have power, by vote of
the majority of the members elected
to both Houses, to abolish the said
office of Superintendent of Public
whenever 10 their opinion
said Office shall be no longer neces-
sary.i
Thus it will be seen that there is a
constitutional method of getting rid of
The head Of the system if the lifeless
body cannot be decently inferred. But
It astonishes us to hear gentlemen talk
Of Constitutional scruples, whilst be-
longing to body of politicians, who
have within the past few years, viola
ed the instrument in other ways than
BY an illegal organization of q board
# Swamp Land Commissioners .
The constitution requires a board of
Public Works." and says emphati-
ally that the Commissioners shall be
elected by the people, whereas
Board Of Swamp Land Commission
RS are now and have been appointed
y the Executive.
One evil at a time. Let the People
ny (since The legislature will not pro-
'ide working system Of Public Edu-
atiop) that the sinecure office of State
shall be abolished.
