rHEPUBLIo SCHOOL.

At meeting Of the qualified electors of
North San Juan school district, held on the
evening of the 7th inst, the following per-
sons were elected trustees for the ensuing
year; r. Il. Farquhar, ]. b. Johnson and
Richard Abbey. Messrs. Farquhar and Alb
hey have served in this capacity for several
years, and to their exertions, seconded by
the liberality of the public when appealed
to for material aid, is entirely due the main
tenance of the district school for ten months
in each year and its present fourishing con-
dition. Mr.. johnson is also gentleman ex-
perienced in the management Of schools,
and has that practical knowledge which only
the teacher himself can acquire. 1t is graf
flying to know that the important cause of
home education has been confded to such
competent hands. The number of persons
who participated in the election was greater
than on any previous occasion, with one ex
ceptien, since the establishment Of the
was manifested. Former meetings were
composed mostly of bachelors; this one
consisted mostly of parents. Never before
has there been any discussion as to the man
agement of the school; this time there was
very free interchange of opinions on the
subject, and laudable disposition mani
tested to scrutinize the course of both teach
ers and trustees. These indications are full
of encouragement.
The old board of trustees submitted a re-
port from which we gather the following
facts. The average daily attendance at the
school, from April lst, 1859, to March 3lst,
1860, was forty nine. The largest attend
ance was during February of this year, when
the number ran up to eighty-one, and con-
tinues nearly at that up to the present time.
The smallest attendance was in December
last, when the number of pupils was but
thirty-two. The school has been divided
into primary and intermediate departments
within the past two months. THIS arrange
ment is undoubtedly the best, and ought TO
be continued, if funds enough can be real
lied to pay two teachers. During the year
three teachers have been employed at differ
ent times-Misses Mary A. Fuller, B. R.
Freeman and A. Melbourne. The financial
condition of the school was thus stated:

Sauatter Sovereignty Reviewed
BY CHRISTIAN ROSEL1CS.

At the meeting held on Wednesday night
on Canal street, by the friends Of Bell and hv-
erctt, we were pleased to witness striking
exception to the trashy defamation and va
MD rant of most of the speeches delivered up
on that OCCASION. This exception was plea
sing one. because wholly unexpected. We. al.
lude to that portion Of Counsellor Roselius'
speeches in condemnation of squatter sovereign
ty. With that analytical vigor and impress
sive manner which have secured for him such
a distinguished position at the New Orleans
bar, he reviewed the powers OF the co or
dnate branches of Government, and in par
ticulsr those i,of the Supreme Judiciary. He
laid down, with great perspicuity, the different
doctrines euunciated in the Dred Scott decision
particularly that in reference to the right Of
the people Of the various states to emigrate to
the Territories with their slaves and other pro-
perty, subject alone to the requirements OF the
Constitution. The doctrine Of fsquatter soyer
cignty being in open contradiction and opposi
tion with this Judicial decision, Mr.. Douglas
he thought, was dangerous man to be eieva
ted to the Presidency. These are good psmo
cratic sentiments, and arc identically the stm
as those laid down in our platform and enter
tained by our Presidential standard bearers
As Mr.. Roseius expressed the opinion that b
had chance of converting Mr.. Soule to HI
doctrines we may expect before long to hav
the pleasure of announcing the support Of
two distinguished speakers to our glorlou
cause Be this as it may, we learn that severa
persons who were on the ground, undecided a
vet in their political opinions, but convince
Of the meagerness Of Bell and Everett's chance
expressed at once, upon hearing Mr.. Roseliu
sperehes, their determination to vote for Brsch

REGULAR NoM1NATIoNs.-The very strongest
card of the Douglasites, and one which is
most insisted on by them, is their claim that
their candidate has the Irregular, nomination" )"
In many of the States their entire strength is
derived from this mistaken assumption and
yet in those very states we see the Douglasites
repudiating regular nominations and even
voting directly for the candidate of the oppos..
ton in preference to the regular candidates OF
the Democracy. If Mr.. Douglas is entitled to
any Democratic vote on the plea Of regularity,
so was McClarty in Kentucky, but the Doug
lasItes voted against him: so is the regularly
nominated electoral ticket in Pennsyl lvania,
but the Douglasites declare their intention Of
setting up another and the same is the case
in Maryland and all Throughout the South
Everywhere in those states the Douglasites are
| in opposition to the regular Democratic organ
izations-are, in fact "bolters," "secessionists,
disorganists," and all that they impuaently
charge against the genuine Democracy. If tht
DougIasites support regular nominations in six
teen of the states they must support the organ
izations which adhere to Breckinridge AM
Lane! Let them either do this, or cease thei
babble about Regularity Washington cosa
