A Convention OF County Supcrin.
icndcnls assembled at Harrisburg last
week, for an Interchange Of views
upon the system, and TO recommend
such changes in the law as in their
Judgment was necessary for full dc.
velopment of the school system Of the
State Mr. Snyder from this county,
was present, as well rs about fifty
othera This, we should judge, was
rather success for the FIRST attempt,
and will no doubt result 10 similar us
scmbies; which will soon perfect and
make permanent the system, or hasten
its downfall, if not acceptable to the
people
The Convention adopted and reject
ed, in our view, some good suggestions,
and If acted upon by the Legislature
would soon be tried upon their merits.
The recommendations that the schools
should be kept open six months in the
year, and that the tax should be equal
throughout the State, and that three
| Gnstead OF six) persons should oonsti-
tute board of directors, all tend to
put the system on the foundation in
tended by its founders. But the re-
lection Of tho resolution requiring
each county to adopt uniform eet Of
books was wrong. The present mode
ofeach district selecting its own books
is expensive, and one of the chief com
plaintsagainst hesystem. Next TO the
tax, the book feature is the most vital.
The founders Of the system called il
"common'-alike in it's features and
its operations everywhere-but ahoir
successors have failed TO put it in
prac ice.
The very fact that the Common
School System is so administered, that
the people Of Delaware county need
to assess a tax Of but pee mills to keep
their schools open nine months, while
we in Clear6eld must assess Sirteen
mills, and only keep our schools open
four months, is enough to condemn It
in the minds Of all fair-minded meE,
and especially those outside Of Della
ware county.
Under this common system, as il
is termed, We are compelled to pay
two thirds more tax, and have less
than one-half the schooling our neigh.
Dor enjoys 10 our mind, if the Legis-
lature refuses TO pass law to compel
an equal assessment Of the taxes
throughout the State, they had better
change the name TO "Un-Common'
School System, TO make the thing
practical

Presidents MrssAGE.-We this
week lay before our readers the second
annual message Of President Johnson,
and ask for il an attentive pernsal.
The document reads like some of the
old Democratic State papers, that
originated in the White House while
the Government was administered
according to the Constitution. 1t
seems hard for the President to got
rid OF his education, although be for n
series of years associated and acted
with a herd Of political debauchees,
such as no country has been accursed
with since the days of Robespiere,
when headless bodies were more plon-
tilul in France than honest "loyal'
politicians are in this country. Mr.
johnson is making an herculenn effort
to rescue the country from the hands
Of the parricides, who have disrupted
and murdered its inhabitants, for the
purpose of plunder, in the regular
freebooter style. If he succeeds iu
saving it from anarchy and threatened
despotism, it will be u miracle, and he
will receive the thanks Of grateful
people He was made President
through no effort of ours but while
he attempts to administer the affairs
Of State upon a Constitutional basis,
and in a direct line with his predeces.
sors, with the exception Of the four
years Of the lamented," we will sus
tain him in our feeble way. He has,
and is still doing specific acts that We
condemn, and wish it were otherwise
but If the Disunion bumpers would
allow his policy full sway, the country
would soon be united and at peace
This is all we want now, as other
healthful symptoms woulk soon follow.
Our views on removals viii be found
in another column.

Tim LEADfR"-This is a new pa
per started at IIollidaysburg, by John
II. Keatly, Esq. 1t makes a neat ap-
pearsnce, and is 10 be devoted entirely
to the cause Of temperance We sus-
poet that about the time the next elec-
tion comes around "loyalty" will be
added to the list 1t may be well
enough to again revive the temperance
cause, but if the same demogoguos
mount the hobby that rode il to death
in 1854, a similar fate awaits it, Tem-
perance, while advocated upon its
merits, done great deal Of good but
it soon fell into disrepute when given
over TO the control Of halfwitted cler-
gymen and drunken lecturers. The
friends OF the cause will have to keepa
sharp lookout if the same tribe don't
get hold OF it again. If the editor OF
the Leader prevents this, he will have
wrought good work, and viii no
doubt attract the attention Of all true
temperance advocates.

A "LoYAL" DEcisoN.-It appears,
since the election Of Beast Butler to
Congress, that he is not now, nor
never has been, a citizen of the Fifth
district, in which he was candidate.
And upon this point MIR. Northend,
his Democratic opponent, compelled
the "loyal Attorney General of the
Stste to render an opinion. He has
decided that a majority of the voters
Of the Fifth district Of Massachusetts
having expressed their preference Tor
Benjamin f. Butler, be is therefore
duly elected. Should some Democrat
elected to Congress be found TO be a
nonresident Of his district, the loyal
Rump would soon send him home.
Bat as the Beast is one of their gang,
it would make no difference il he resi-
ded in Canada or Europe, as equity,
law and right have been stricken
from the old catalogue, and "loyalty"
substituted, and whoever wears this
cloak at this day, can pcrpetrate any
crime with impuuity, if done in the
interest and behoof of this kingly
epithet.

The following article taken from the
Hollidaysburg Standard, 70 fully cx-
presses our views on the subject Of re-
movals, that we bcspcak for il the al.
ientive pvrusal Of our readers
We are not too modest 10 say, that
the President does not come up 20 our
standard of what he ought TO 10 the
matter of removals from Office. IL
has heretofore been the doctrine, and
we believe it TO be right, that if the
President wishes TO have successful
administration he must have men in
Office under him to sustain his policy
Mr.. Lincoln acted upon this theory
when ho came into powor. lie was
barely warm in his seat before he
commenced a Wholesale removal, and
in comparatively short time hardly
boot black was left in the employ OF
the government tnat did not sing the
chorus to thc tune started 10 the W hte
House. In this general slaughter men
were removed from petty offices who
Mt the first alarm had volunteered "a
protect Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet
from being driven into the Potomac
lie aud his party tolerated nobody in
office who did not endorse in toto all
the measures of the administration
good bad and Indifferent All the ex.
] ecutive patronage was used TO sustain
his policy, and the officials spent theii
time and money, freely, to this end
Never before was there such bitter
prescription praoseed toward those
who differed in opinion with the ad
ministration The influence of biz
Office holders did a great deal TOWARD
enabling Mr.. Lincoln 10 carry ouI
his policy, as Objectionable as il was
in many Of its features.
Neither the condition Of things mol
the necessities of the occasion hay,
changed since then. Ii is as neeess'
ry now for Mr. johnson to have th,
places of public trust filed with biz
friends US il was for Mr.. Lincoln wber
be was in his Office. Yes more 50
The present executive has u hosiil,
Congress, while his predecessor had i
/ friendly one. President johnson ha,
a policy which he wishes to carry ou
because it is good one, Whom doei
he suppose will assist him 10 carry 4
out, bis friends or his enemies o
course he must look TO the former foi
whatever success be expects Il
achieve. But how can they be expect
cd TO exert their full influence in III
behalf if his enemies, those who ar,
known to be his open opposers, arr
retained IN Office and allowed to dis
pence the public patronage to count
eract their eXertians Yet this is thl
case to-day More than four-flths o
al the public offices in the couutrl
are in the hands Of the Preside I
political enemies, and where they d,
not use the influence and patronagr
Of their Offices against him openly
they do il secretly. Thousands o
these dispensers Of patronage laugi
