The War Between the President
and the Radicals,

The Washington correspondent Of the
New York 1ifJaae tradical) thus evlnces
his fears of a rupture between the Presi--
dent and the Destructiyes. He says:
"Thc situation Is, therefore, essentially
the same as 1t was before the recess. The
question is whether II will long remain so.
The President In his conversations with
members, Is still profuse in assurances that
he Is far nom desiring conflict between
the Executive and Congress, but he does
not seem willing 10 say what he would do
TO avoid II. If IL Is true, as Is generally
asserted and believed by many, that the
President intends to use his official patr0n-
age for the purpose of forcing the lInmedi-
ate admission OF southern delegations, he
may produce the desired effect upon u few
individuals, but he will thereby rather pre-
cipitate than prevent AN open rupture
The employment of such means would only
tend 10 oxasperate men who are always
willing TO come 10 u fair and friendly un-
dersuandlpg, but who Will never Yield to
anything that looks like force or eorrup-
ton"

OUR SCHOOL SYsTEM.-The Common
School system of our State is now un-
der consideration in the Legislature,
and a committee of three has been
appointed in both branches to consid-
er the whole question, and report
what changes, if any, are necessary
to make its operations more uniform
in all parts Of the Commonwealth. II
is alleged by the friends of a new sys-
tenn that "there is at prescntan unjust
discrimination in making each district
levy its own rate of tax, and keep its
schools open for a fixed term, without
any regard to the ability of its inhab-
itants to pay. In wealthy districts
the law works well, but in the poorer
sections it is oppressive and unjust
In lieu OF the present node of assess
ing and collecting the school tax, it is
proposed to fix tax upon the basis
of two mills to the dollar valuation
upon the real and personal property
Of the State, and about ten per cent
of the gross receipts coming into the
Treasury. This sum, is said, will at
any time, over and above expenses,
supply 81 100000, and will allow As
cents per month to scholar,or 81 25
per scholar for minimum term Of
five months tuition, by paying s24 90
per month to teachers.
This is a most important matter,
and we hope that full and deliberate
consideration will be bestowed upon
all branches of the subject before any
change is made That some amend
ments could be engrafted upon our
system Of common school education is
certain, but whether proper ones will
be suggested can only be told when a
bill has been reported.-Age.
