PUBLIC EDUCATION,

Already very gratifying progress has
been made in the work Of organizing
schools IN the various parishes of the
State. The friends of education seem to
take hold Of the work in good earnest In
New Orleans, especially, is this fact de-
monstrated.
We find the teachers united in their de-
Votion to the new board; and to their
work, and they are laboring with better
zeal and cheerfulness than eyer.
The rumor iDdustriously circulated by
some that teachers who profess Democratic
prin ciples would be removed from their
positions, have no foundations to rest on,
The new Board of Directors is composed
of gentlemen who, unlike their prede-
cessors, prescribe no one on account
of political differences. They recognize
the Importance of allowing freedom of
opinion on political and religious ques-
tons, and they will permit no distinc-
ions founded on differences of political
views, to operate for or against teacher,
Or an applicant for position as teacher.
This is more than the old board did, for
,nder their administration the doctrine
hat Republicans should be ostracised,
7illi6ed and punished was vigorously
The new board will ignore pol
tics in the schools, and will favor no
eachers who devote all their time to an
!gitation of political questions, and who
trive to keep up the excitements and
bitterness of the past.

LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
Special Correspondence of the Republican,
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 80, 1870.


Special Correspondence of the Republican,
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 80, 1870.
During the past month we have had the
variable weather incident to April in this
latitude, but now spring is fairly upon Us
with its balmy breezes and clear sunshine.
The Senate having disposed of the Georgia
bill for the present, is now fairly st work on
routine business. The House is getting
tired Of the long winded discussion of the
tariff bill, and has proceeded to other bust
ness, taking up the tariff bill at its night
sessions.
There are an unusually large number of
bills before Congress granting land to rail-
roads to aid in their construction. We do
not think better disposition could bemade
of large quantity of the public domain.
Without railroad facilities, it is difficult for
the poor man to emigrate to public lard,
and more difficult still for him to reach a
market for his crops. Railroads bring i'm mi

class of people into a new country.
The election case from the Fifth Congress
sional District WAS reported from the COM
mittee on the tWenty-seVenth, and disposed
OF on the twenty eighth instant.
The committee intended to make a report
giving the seat to Mr.. Morey. but the action
of the House in the case of Sypher VS.. 81.
Martin constrained them to report in favor
of sending the election back, as the violence
and intimidation extended over such large
portion of the district.
The Republican vote having been divided,
was also an unfortunate feature, and should
teach boiling Republicans the Stiffness and
weakness of supporting such disorganizlng
movements. Twice has this movement been
encouraged by portion of the Republicans
of the Fifth Congressional District, and it is
time that they should cease, or no longer
claim to be Republicans. In the Fourth
and Fifth Districts the regular nominee
received the whole Republican vote cast,
and the intimidation and violence was not
so wide spread as in the First and Third
Districts. The committee have reported in
these cases in favor of seating Newsham
and Darrall, the Republican candidates.
The cases will not be called for several days;
that from the Third District for at least two
weeks.

TEACHERS INSTITUTE.

Mr.. F. A. Allen, long known as princi-
pal OF the State Normal School of Penn
sylvania, is on a visit to our city. His
long experience in holding Teachers In
stitute5 in various Northern States has
prompted Superintendent Conway and
Garter to request him to hold one in this
city while he is here, and, as he has con-
scented, the schools of the city will be
closed on Friday of this week, in order to
give the teachers an opportunity of at
tending.
We hope as many of the friends of
education as can attend will take the pains
to be present.
The place of holding the Institute is at
the High School, No. SO Burgundy street.

TRApEzAL TRAGEDIES.

The "Queen of the Air." Mile. Tur.
nour, to wit, has closed her engagement as
| leading star in the Partisan constellation
at Bidwell & Spalding's. We would not
oppose enterprise in managers nor emula-
ton in professionals, but we have had
more than our share of trapezing, and re-
lief is the more needed on account of the
rapid Increase of casualties, in respect to
which ace, as a people and press. have
our respective accountabilities. We want
New Orleans henceforth spared the en-
tertainment. Let it pass away like the
arena OF the gladiator and the ring of the
bull fight. so that no further oblation will
be offered to the gods of heather soci
ology from the ropes and horizontal bars of
our vicinity.
1t happens that these sacrifices are
usually young and innocent children or
girls, forced by dint of sheer cruelty into
marketing their agility and personal charms
at these shambles. The story of Lila and
Zoe, recently exhibiting at one of our
theatres, was lately told in ST. Louis
paper. 1t is the story of the others, with
rare exceptions. A brutal father, hus-
band of Lila, who is stepnotber of little
Zoe, whose cupidity has inundated at its
altar all affection, constrains both wife
and child to commit these shows, which
both regard with horror and perform with
fear and trembling. At last young Zoe,
only twelve, has fallen from the dizzy
height and whirl of Philadelphia night
scene, making the latest appeal-not to
the mercy Of msrciless parents, or other
keepers, by whom such young lives
are nightly swung in the ropes of
these establishments-but to the for
beorance of the public. The cry to
desist from encouraging homicide in
this particular shape comes from little
Zoe this time, mutilated-it may be killed,
for entertainment of Philadelphia people,
we having escaped in our turn last JAN
uary. Conditions on such occasions are
peculiar, perhaps pleasing, and hence this
killing is not called murder. Does that
matter to Zoe? 1t has, however. become
the subject of legislation in one of the
Northern States, and is not there lawful
homicide. Let trapezing everywhere
lease by municipal Or other law-sum-
nary and sanguinary-as it seems it will
lot by public sentiment. Let there be no |
'over for the guilty sponsors of the inno-
'ents, but consign them to sheriff |
ender embraces and the clasp of iron
BRACELETS. Let New Orleans interpose its |
'rohi bition before there comes to be an
ffering TO the oblative deity from any of |
he theatrical shrines at which our people
o homage to only innocent and harmless
leasures. See to it, those who will or
lay, that in the hour of retribution our
,ithers be unwrung.

ON CAROHDELET STREET.

Stocks generally were quite dull yester-
day. Every one seemed waiting for some
thing to turn up, and, while waiting, to be
unwilling to assume new risks. Some tol-
erably heavy wagers have been laid upon
the probability of the Governor signing
the levee bill within the current month,
and perhaps this is about as safe mode
to operate just now, as dabbling over
much in the 'fancies." One of these days,
when our new companies get fairly at
work, and exhibit by actual operations the
feasibility of the schemes they are incorpo-
rated to carry out, and the business ca
pacity of their managers, there will be
some chance for people having money to
invest to make up their minds as to the
value of their stock. Until then the GER
tifcates will be principally handled as
they have been to date.
Slaughterhouse is weaker. At the board
last evening 25 shares brought S32, and
so were disposed Of at SS1 so. Before
the meeting of the board, 100 shares were
sold at $31 rs; 1875 at S31 so; Is at S30

lot of $50, and another of so. went at

100 at $11 so ito be delivered today.
These sales were made"upon the street.
Nothing was done in this stock at the

so at So; 10 at So Is; Is at So SO. Ship
Island remains at the usual figure, a lot of

SUGAR AND IRON,

The tax on foreign sugar is reduced one
third, to The detriment of the sugar plant
ing interests of this State, and the act
transpircs quietly in the national legisla-
ture with little or no opposition.
An attempt is made to do the same
thing with iron, and commotion reigns in
the national council, and the vibration is
felt to the extremities of the country.
Pennsylvania, Minerva-like, armed from
head to foot, rushes to the rescue of her
beloved iron. The whole delegation, with
Cameron at their head, show their teeth
and stand firm. Then Congress concludes
it will not take the duty off iron, for the
same reason that Teodles would not
smoke.
Prick Pennsylvania with a pin and
scream of Indignation is heard over all
the land. Infllct manning stab on LOU

who have hitherto been the bitter opponents
of that party.
