THE DEMOCRATIC yIcToRIEs.-It thun-
ders all around the sky. The town elections
held in New Hampshire, Maine and New
York all tell one story-overwheming Dem
ocratic gains as compared with last fall when
the Republicans were everywhere beaten
With these figures before us, it is safe to say
that were Presidential election to be held
next week the Democrats would carry every
State in the Union, except, perhaps, Massa-
chusetts and Iowa.
In Troy we gain twelve hundred upon the
vote of last year; in Lansingburg three hun
dred in Utica two hundred and fifty in
Rhinebeck three hundred, and in several
minor towns equally large gains. A holly
contested town election in New Hampshire
shows large gain. The Portland election
shows that the popular reaction against Re-
pulicanism is as strong in the old Pine-Tree
State as in New York, Every return tells
the same tale, and all condemn the mad ma
iority in Congress. The impeachers stand
impeached before the high court of the peo-
ple.-Neo York World

THE LIBRARIANsHIP-H Henry A. Silver,
Esq, the newly appointed Librarian, will
take possession of the office, on the first of
March, Mr. Jordan, the incumbent, retiring
by agreement on that date. We are glad
that Mr.. j., who has on all occasions treated
US with marked kindness and courtesy, has
concluded to retire from the office without
the unpleasant and harassing effects of
contested appointment Mr.. Silvers appoint
ment is an excellent one, for speaking from
personal knowledge we know him to be q
courteous and intelligent gentleman, and
one whom, We think, will make most
efficient officer. He is an answering party
man, but as far as we are aware, is by no
means bigoted or preiudiced. He has served
his county, in the Legislature, and also in the
late State Convention. Those who may visit
the Library during his incumbency, will find
that blending with the intelligence of the
officer, will be found the courtesy of the
gentleman.

different counties and the city of Baltimore,
the share of any county should prove made
quate for the purposes Aforesaid, then the
county commissioners of each county are
required to levy and collect such tax upon

county generally
The bill contains various provisions in
relation to the division of school districts,
defines the qualifications and duties of teach
ers, the branches of education to be taught,
&c. All teachers are to impress upon the
youth committed to their care the principles
"of virtue, truth and love of country. No
salary of a teacher is to be less than at the
rate of $500 per school year of ten months,
except for assistants in graded schools, who
shall not receive less than $3.50, and they
may receive more if determined upon in any
