The New Board Of school ControIlers.


Born branches Of the Legislature have passed,
and the Governor has signed, bill, taking
from the School Directors of Philadelphia the
power to elect the School Controllers, and
vesting it in the Courts. The completion of the
various preliminariees necessary before the bill
could go into effect will be hailed with gratif-
cation by our citizens. The old system of
election had become thoroughly incompetent
not to say corrupt. The constitution of the
sectional Boards was always such as to make
them always stand nine Of one party to three
of the otherf The choice by such body was
always partisan one. The candidate had no
examination into his qualifications further
than an inspection of the ticket he had
voted for the past few years. And when no
requisite but party enthusiasm was necessary,
it is not surprising that the Office was given to
the smallest order of politicians. We feel no
surprise that it frequently happened that the
ignorant had a majority of the Board but we
are rather astounded that there was ever
selected suitable gentleman. The determi-
nation to make an effort to effect change first
became apparent about a year ago, at which
tllle We SpOhe earnestly III ldNOr Vi Jue
reform. The agitation has since been kept up,
and it is with surprise that we see that the
measure has been adopted so speedily.
We felt well assured that it would ulti-
mately come, but that, within a single session,
it should be adopted is cause for hope of an
improvement in our Legislature. Mr.. James
N. Marks was the author of the bill, and de-
serves great credit for the steps he has taken
to hasten its passage. We feel confident that,
under the new regime, we will see a marked
improvement in the control of our common
schools. The Office of Controller will cease to
be small reward for party services, and
become one of the most honorable positions in
our municipality. 1t will soon be held to be
the highest compliment which could be paid
to a man, that the courts should deem him
qualified to superintend the education of
hundred thousand children, and select him
out of all his fellows to have a voice in the
management of the curriculum of studies. As
in Boston, so will the position become here-a
post to be sought for by all as an honor, and
given only to the best. We hope that the
first steps of the new Board will be to eschew
all political influences, and the choice of
teachers be influenced only by merit and not
by partisan feeling.

The Mobile Tribune, in an appeal TO the De-
mocratic party of the North, is responsible for
the following metaphor:-"W Abolition
ism, shaped from its native ooze into a full
formed beast, started on its career of destruc-
tion, tearing down the ramparts of Holy Writ
in order to throttle the South, and throu gh
the South the charter of constitutional free
dom, which was your heritage as well as ours,
in those days, Democrats of the North, you
stood shoulder to shoulder with the people of
the South" $50 we did, ," they will answer,
when they know that the Mobile Tribune offers
Office as a reward, and threatens a new Rebel
lion:-"It has occurred to us that some among
you would not object to go to Congress as
representatives from the South. 1t is likely
that we can elect you, if you help us some
what, and, as you can take the test-oath you
can take your seats in the Capitol. If that be
forbidden you, you will have an opportunity
of doing with Democratic Congressman what
some of you say you will do, if need be, with
the next Democratic President "a safe threat,
probably)-seat him by force of arms. The
time is hastening-the enemy taking position
and planting batteries. Up with your colors,

AUTHORITATIVE INTERPRETATIONS or THE LAW.
If any of our Generals in command of Dis
tricts, under the Reconstruction law, are
doubtful as to the of their powers under
that act, we would advise them to read the
Presidents veto messages of the original and
supplementary bills. They will there find
that their powers are practically unlimited.
This is the Presidents cfic'al Interpretation of
the law; and of course, he is too consistent to
back down from it at this early day. If
General Sheridan, therefore, wishes to remove
the Rebel Throckmorton from the Provisional
Governorship of Texas, let him go ahead. He
has full power to do so, and the country will
sustain him in it.

SOME of our Democratic contemporaries are
particularly sarcastic on the United States
Senate because it oonsults the member of the
lower House before it confirms a nominee in
his district and characterizes such courtesy as
'cowardice," and states that 'it cannot ven
ture to confirm a nominee without asking per-
mission of the member A moments rehec-
ton will show that such a course of conduct is
eminently proper. Who is better qualified to
know the abilities of a man, Senator from
distant State or the representative from the
district in which the would-be officer resides
And if there be any personal objection, who
should be consulted sooner than the repre-
sentative of the people over whom the officer
is to exercise control? Such a reference is
not only due to courtesy, but to justice and
policy.

NEXT WEEK the music-loving citizens of
Philadelphia will be presented with short
season of the genuine Italian OPERA the lead
ing artists of the troupe being none other than
Mime Parepa-Rosa and the wOrld-renowned
Brignoh. Both of these are great favorites in
this city, as was fully proved by the enthu-
siastic reception given them at their last ap-
pearance in concert at the Academy of Music.
Brignoli has frequently appeared here in his
great operate roles, while Mime Parepa now
makes her debut in this line before Philadel-
phia audience. The only thing to be regretted
in connection with the matter is the brevity of
the season which has been allotted us.

The PARAMOUNT PARK EXTENSION. - The
opinion delivered this morning by Judge ALI
son, setting aside the award of damages by
the jury in the Fairmount Park Extension,
will be found in full in our columns to-day.

liking for rich developments will not fail to
read it, independently of his interest in the
matter as a taxpayer.

GENERAL SCHoFIELD AT WoRK.-General
Schofeld is the first of the military command
ers who has ordered the registration of voters
provided for in the Reconstruction law. He
seems disposed to push matters along without
hesitation. Under the law the registration
can be made any time before the lst of Sep
tember next. This affords ample time for
having the work honestly and thoroughly
performed.

SENATOR SAULsBURY's drunkenness has be-
come so habitual as to force the Senate, out of
mere self-proteotion, to institute measures for
his expulsion. This step ought to have been
taken long ago, but natural disinclination on
the part of the Senate to afix such public
brand Of infamy upon one of their number
has led to the liberation of an evil which has
become notorious scandal. Salisbury had

What Constitutes Russian America.

" hat Constitutes Russian America.
WHEN the treaty between Russia and the
United States in regard to the purchase of
Russian America was made public, every
public man and newspaper looked and talked
wisely, but were careful not to be too COM
initial, for, with the exception of Mr.. Seward,
nobody had heard of Russian America further
than by name, and we doubt if the Secretary
of State knows anything about it himself.
The Nation, however, has been going into the
subject, and gives us the following succinct
account of the beauties Of our proposed acqui-
sition, which are certainly Instructive
Russian America is inhabited by fifty thou

and nine or ten thousand Russians, Russian

explorers and whalers than to most other men,
and probably of no possible value to any men
but them the semi civilized tribes that support
existence there, and the Russian settlers VINO
trade with them. The territory is larger than
eight States like NewiYork would be, its area
. being 394 900 square miles, What we want OF it,
unless to take "a solitude and call it Seward, by
erecting it into Territory, we do not know,
but we can buy the privilege of flying the stars
and stripes over colony, and a worthless
colony, by paying seven millions Of dollars for
it. This we suppose Congress will not do.
There is no good reason for doing it,
and several good reasons for not
doing 1t. We do net want far distant, detached
colonies, nor ice and snow territories, nor
Esquimaux fellow citizens, nor Mount Saint
Elias, and there Is nothing else TO be had from
Alaska and Barrows Point so far as we are
informed. The Cars intentions, aside from
his design of getting the seven millions in gold
are doubtful. 1t may be that he thinks New
Archangel not worth the powder and shot he
may have TO eXpend in its defense in case of a
new Eastern war. 1t may be that he wants to
impress Europe with the idea of the closeness
of friendship that must exist between Russia
and q country for whose sake Russia cuts Off a
