The Detroit Board of Education, who must
be little waggishly inclined, have adopted
singular device for the seal of that body.
1t represents, as we see it described, hand
some school mistress, of eighteen or twenty
summers, seated in a chair with thriving
younker across her lap presenting ready
view. The left hand Gnstead of the right, by
singular freak of the designers genus,) is
uplifted having stout leather strap, in the
act of descending upon the rear view as afore-
said. The younker's mouth is wide open,
from which issues the motto of the seal. In
the terms Of heraldry, the seal would thereof
thus be described: "Schooma'am rampant.
Younker salterwise. Motto Strike but
hear me-"

At the Black Republican State Convention
IN Illinois, in which every county in the State
was fully represented, they passed resolutions
IN favor Of Abe Lincoln for the United States
Senate, and denunciatory Of Douglas! At
the Black Republican State Convention of
California, they passed resolutions indorsing
Douglas course! Have the Republicans diff
ferent platforms for different States! In H.
iinols the Republicans call Douglas traitor
and demagogue; in California, the same par
ty assert he is a patriot and statesman.-

terrible scenes through which they passed AL ac-

It was the result of unwsrrantsble coreessness

inefliciency upon the decks. 1t msy seem harsh
to speak thus of those who can never an

of those who escaped is that gross neficiency, to
say the least ruled in that terrible hour. Some Of
those who were rescued were very seriously burned,
and no doubt few have died from their injuries.
There seems to be faint hope that one of the
boats, which was seen at sunset far astern of the
ship, with number Of persons in her, may have
been picked up by the bark which was cruising off
the wreck the next morning, but nothing certain,
not even the destination of the bark is yet Known
