WARD BEEcHER AND FERNANDO WooD.--
Ward Bcecher made an abolition speech at the
Academy Of Music on Tuesday evening, and
Fernando Wood delivered peace speech at
Bergen, New Jersey, on the same day. These
orations were about on the same level as to
talent, and both advocated silly and impracti-
cable theories, which amount TO nothing in this
practical world. Beecher seems to have left
his popularity behind him in England. Tie
audience at the Academy was very small.
Wood lost his popularity long ago, and the
only audience he had for his speech were a
few raw, ignorant peace Jerseymcn, who dis
grace that loyal little State by residing in It,
and who have no better sense than to cackle
over peace theories in the midst of great war,
as dunghill fowls cacklo during a thunder
storm. Let Beecher go back to his church in
Brooklyn, and be content with r.,,-inr hi, little
tempcs,s IA that teapot let Wood retire
to the shades Of Bloomingdac and occupy
his days with study and bis nights with prayer
SO q, TO it himself for q position in the next
Congress, If he can. Eeccber is a pulpit dcma
gogue, and should stick TO bis congregation
Wood has about ability enough for q ward poll
tican, and " he ever expects TO be anything
better he must study for IT, Go TO your church
Beecber Go to your library, Wood. Let us
be pestered no more with these theoretical.
impracticable, nQpsensical, oratorical gadaies.

that of the school officers. One-half of the
Board of Education, two Trustees and one
School Inspector in each ward are to be
chosen on Tuesday next These men, in con-
necton with those whose term OF Office does
not expire this year, will have the manage
ment OF the educational portion of our city
important trust can be placed in the hands Of
any set Of men than this. Upon their action
depends the success or failure Of our school
system. That our schools are not oil managed
as they should be, and that there is q necessity
for reform, we have only to cite the nume-
rous complaints that are being made, among
them the death of the little child in the Twen-
ty-fourth street school.
In some of the wards there has been an i'm
provement in the class Of persons nominated
| for School Commissioners, and in others they
have gone from bad to worse. Almost every
where the politicians are doing their best to
run the system into party politics. The school
Offices are bargained and traded upon just as
though they were Of no earthly Importance
further than the spoils are concerned. II our
citizens desire reform in the management of
our school, Il is necessary that they should not
only attend to the selection Of School Commits
siopers, but also the Trustees The latter have
the employment Of the teachers and more
direct connection with the schools N the seve
raj wards than the Commissioners Those
officials are also Of great importance.
| The election Of school officers Is Of toe
much Importance FOR any person to allow party
| politics TO control his vote No person who ha:
any regard for the youth Of our city will vote

tees OF Inspectors, just because they are the no
minee Of this or that party. regardless OF tue
