The NATIONAL ERA.--It is announced by
telegraph, that the National Era will be dis
continued after next week and, also, that a
Washington newspaper called "The Repub-
lie" and professedly republican, has been dis
continued. "The Republic" was of no ac-
count whatever. Nobody wanted it, and no.
body will miss it. But the National Era has
been loved and honored. Itwas started to
serve great and noble purpose. 1t has been
influential and eminently useful. There is no
newspaper in the land to which the republican
cause is more indebted, and we are very sorry
that its days are numbered. The death of
DR.. Bailey was an irreparable loss to that es
adjustment. Nobody else could fill bis place
in it, and it is to be discontinued because since
his death it has ceased to pay expenses.
Another despatch from Washington says
IAN effort will be made to unite the subscrip-
ton lists of the National Era and the Repub-
lie, and found new republican paper" We
hope it will fail, Nothing of the kind is want
ed and if such paper should be started, it
could be nothing but begging, spoils hunting
servile adventurer, fit only for contempt. The
failure to give the National Era the benefit of
the House printing seems TO US an inexcusable
injustice. The behavior of the House over
that printing business has not been very cred
liable, on the whole; and even those who
sought to keep their votes for printer very
pure, may have occasion to review the mat.
ter without much satisfaction, if one result is
such a newspaper as that talked of by the
silent partnership of House printers represent.

THE STATUE OF HORACE MANS.-Charles
Sumner addresses the following letter to Dr.

Mr.. Mann, which will be read with interest =
SENATE CHAMBER, March 5, 1860.
My Dear H0tCe;-I am glad to know that you are
moving in earnest for public statue to Horace
Mann. Absence, and not Indifference, is my excuse
for not associating myself at first with this purpose
Though tardily, do it now most sincerely and,
with my whole heart. l send you forit one hundred
dollars; but you will please not to measure my in
terest in this tribute to public benefactor by the
sum which contribute. Were 1 able it should be
ten times as large Ii each person in Massachusetts
who has been benefited by the vast and generous la
bors Of Mr. Mann-each person who hates intemper-
ance, and also hates slavery person who loves
education, and also loves humane efforts for the
prisoner the poor, and the insane-should contri-
butte mite only, then his statue would be of gold.
Why not at once appeal TO good men, and insist
upon organization throughout the commonwealth,
reaching into every school district, that all may
have an opportunity to contribute? Pray do this,
and if l can serve you in any way about it, com
mand and believe me
Always yours CHARLES SUMNER.
