On Saturday, while Messrs Dunn,
Packard, Lowell and Baker were journey
parish, to attend Republican meeting at
that place, they passed ex-Alderman
Walsh, ex-Mayor Conway, Mons. Glaudin
and the eruptive Mr.. Rogers, cantering
along in the same direction, with the
pious design of holding Democratic re-
vival at the same station. AS they never
made their appearance on the ground it
is matter of interest to know what be-
came of them.

ever may have or keep system of schools,
and the law of the case must turn on
questions of fact. ..-.
In all large American cities, as well as
for twenty-five years in this, the city COM
plements the State apportionment, which
is generally quite inadequate to an i'm
proved system of graded and high schools.
There was such an appropriation or
budget levied last year for city public
schools, with which the city might law
fully complement or piece out for city
schools, but would probably have
no right and even be prevented
should they attempt to give the money to
q new system of ward schools. It would
be a diversion Of vested right,
appropriated to the city system of
public schools, which has, as it
had then, real, tangible existence,
while the ward schools, not then
nor now existing could acquire none.
This fact alone assuring, on the one hand,
a complete and fully provided for set of
schools; on the other hand, confusion,
want Of uniformity, want of means, and
other disadvantages of separate ward sys-
TENS in the same city, should, we think,
prevent an apportionment to boards which
had at the time of the apportionment,
and have now, in most cases, not organ
lied, not qualified; and when organized
having but doubtful powers, having no
schools, no qualified treasurers, and in
most wards no existence themselves ex-
cept in imagination, no debts, and no ex-
penses, are facts which should determine
the apportionment to the City Board,
which with it can fully meet the public
wants, and preserve the schools
So great are the doubts of the powers of
the ward boards, in addition to the aver
sion to having fourteen different school
systems with fourteen ward treasures,
and to having any new or additional
taxes, that citizens would almost unani-
mously vote down the tax and in this,
Republican voters, if We mistake not,
would in no wise differ from others. 1t is
doubtful, too, how such a tax could be
assessed or collected, even if voted. All
these reasons concur in pointing out as
the proper course that the attempt to en-
force ward system of questionable
legality, and no practicability be aban-
doned.

DEMORALIZED.

At the first battle of Bull Run, the word
| at the head Of these lines received mean
| ing it had never had before; and ever
since that time it has done good service.
| There is no word in the last edition Of
Websters or Worcesters dictionary that
so fully and completely describes the
political condition Of the Democracy Of
this city, and the Second Congressional
district
The nomination of General L. A. Shell
don as candidate for Congress for the
Second Congressional district, has so
completely demoralized the Democracy,
that they don't know their front from
their rear : their left flank from their
right flank. This is not to be wondered
at All the traditions of the old-time
Democracy are in danger Of being torn
and shivered to atoms since our friend
Hatch fired that niger gun of his Off
And what is worse, is his moral turpitude
in forcing the colored men upon the DEM
ocratic convention. Probably he re-
garded himself in the light of doctor
who best knew what kind Of medicine
and treatment the patient needed
when to administer en- anodyne, when
an aperient, and when an emetic. And
this view of the case will explain why DIR.
Hatch chose to administer that negro
emetic, for such it has proved to be. The
Democratic patient had poison upon his
stomach, which, unless speedily removed,
the patients life wouldn't be worth
whisp Of straw. With all the skill Of the
doctor, the patient refused to swallow the
full dose-he had no objection to few
respectable colored men having seats in
the convention" but to nominate them
for Office, when poor, needy Democrats
wanted the positions, that was another
matter.
That portion of the medicine which the
sick Democracy swallowed had its effect
The dose, It's true, was q rather large
one, and the patient is very much debil-
itated in consequence-he has made two
attempts to sit up and take a little nour-
ishment, but was too weak for the task
Dropping all metaphor, and coming
down to plain talk; the Democracy, when
in session, did not nominate any one for
the Second Congressional District, that
work was postponed to some future day.
1t met on Saturday evening last, and
latter some discussion. it was determined
that it was inexpedient to make any Con-
gressional nomination at present, and
adjourned till next week.
Ii this is not a case of decentralization
We should like to know what would be-
We are fearful that DR.. Hatch has been
trying experiments. The fame and value
of ''blue mass is worldwide. but we
never before heard Of blue mass" as q
medicine.
It is to be hoped that these rash expert
ments upon an old and feeble patient will
not terminate fatally for it would be too
bad for the patient to lose his life and the
doctor his reputation at the same time.

"vanity of vanities, saith the preacher,
all is vanity" Messrs. Louis St. Martin
and A. w. Walker will find beautiful
chapter of just such sentences as the above
somewhere in the Bible. We might tell
them the exact page, but as it will proba-
bly, take them until November to find it,
our charity prefers to see them searching
the Scriptures to gadding about the First
Congressional District after seat in Con-
gress. If they will apply themselves,
therefore, to close hunt after the above
text, and study the sublime philosophy
and Christian character of the entire chap
ter, we can safely say they will be fully
prepared to encounter that overwhelming
defeat which General Sypher will intiict
upon them in November.

Ha! ha! no! no! It seems that the
money which Ex-Governor Walker, of
Florida, says the Republicans stole from
the school fund in that State, was not
there when the Republicans assumed
power. When Governor Reed and the
present administration went into Office,
there should have been $500, 900 in the
school fund, but when they asked for the
funds, non est inrentas was the return of
the retiring Democratic brigade. And so
it has been almost everywhere, that Dem
ocratic authorities have turned over to
their Republican successors depleted.

puted. Almost without exception, the
Republican press denounced it as an at
tempt to revive slavery in its worst form.
We believe the same witnesses will prove
this statement, too, if they will confess
that they have the courage to read Re-
publican newspapers. Now, however,
koopmanschap since proposes to import
Cinnamon free to work where they can get

this modern Democracy anything but
shoddy concern. It has no more idea OF
principle than it has Of hard work and
it is opposed to all systems OF free labor,
because its livelihood depends on servile
industry. And it is the same enemy Of
free schools just as it is of free men.
