INoREAsH OF TEACHERS, sALARIrs.

Il
At the last meeting Of the Board Of Public
Education, of this city, q memorial was pre-.
sented from the teachers employed in the
public schools, asking ior an increase OF
their salaries. The matter was referred to a
special committee, with instructions to applv
TO the City Councils, for such an appropria
ton as would enable the Board 10 grant the
prayer of the memorialists. We trust most
earnestly that our City Fathers will at once
see the propriety of the request, and grant
the sum asked for by this committee. We
know OF no city where the salaries of teacb.
ers are so low as in Wilmington. Here they
range from $3.50 to $400. In but single
instance is there any higher amount paid 10
them than $4OO. This (if the increase pro.
posed there is made, as doubtless il will bel
Will be about equal to the lo,oest salary naid
N Philadelphia. In New York, Boston, and
elsewhere, there is still greater dispropor.
ton to be observed, while the cost of living
here, is by no means so much less as 10 war.
rant this great difference in compensation.
some OF our teachers are tempted bv moro
remunerative offers to seek other situations
1t would be great mistake to lose the hen
eht of their experience for the sake of savinr
small sum to the community. Besides W.
do not think they are paid according TO their
work Their services ought to command
higher price, not only because of their no.
cessities, but because of the character of
their labors. An enlightened people will
never so little value the importance of edu.
cation as to avail themselves too cheaply of
the talents and time of instructors
Even after appropriating the extra amount
now asked for, the cost of maintaining our
schools will be quite small compared with
the statistics Of other cities. While in Phil.
sdelphia, each pupil costs the city Sl2.47. in
Boston $l5.7l, and in New York s17.99. in
Wilmington, each pupil costs only s7.54-
and the increase in teachers salaries, would
not, we presume, make difference of more
than another dollar to the average. We
think we speak the sentiments of the greater
part of our readers, when we ask the CITY
Councils to give to this subject their most
favorable consideration, and thus hive re.
spect TO the wants and the deserviugs of
most valuable class in the community.

The vote on the new Constitution oi

of June. We trust that the friends OF
the new Constitution 10 the northeast
corner OF the State will not be 90 confident
of victory as to lead them to neglect the
means to secure it. Let them turn out 10
full force, in their entire strength, to the
very last man. that they may roll up =
msjority which will overcome the ccnser-
vative secesh majority of other portions
of the State against the Constitution.
Undoubtedly the conservatives have
ioaugurated reactionary movement and
hope with the aid of the secesh and the
soreheads to achieve their frst great vic.
tory in the defeat of the new Constitu-
ton, which being accomplished it will be
easy to recover their lost power and re-
store their old policies.
