Maine to-day win, there is no doubt, fol-
low the example Of her sister, Vermont, and
record glorious victory for tho Republican
party and the national administration. The
canvass which has just closed has been one
of the most exciting In years. IL has been
"sturped" from ono end 70 the other by the
ablest orators and speakers Of both the rival
parties, and II, as II undoubtedly will, LIber-
alIsm shall be defeaied there tomorrow Il
will not be because Of failure on the part OF
lis advocates TO fully explain 10. The Gree
ley organs now give up the contest II we
do not get so many thousand majority they
tell US It will be q defeat and like ratio In
the other States Of the Union will elect Mr..
Greeley. This Is indeed whIsting 20 keep
their courage up and we are satisfied.
But seriously, what IL the use Of keeping
up all this worry and excitement until HOvem-
Der neNtP Mr.. Greeley IL beaten to-day. He
lunows Il and his friends know II as wen as
any men In the country. The true course for
him 10 pursue would be 70 retire from . eau
yass which he believes 10 be hopeless and adj
wise his friends and supporters 70 devote the
money paid to Carl Schurz, some two hun
dred dollars per speech, and TO fitzpatrick,
some two and . half dollars per lie, to chart
table purposes. What Is the use Of expend-
Ing money upon fireworks and brass bands,
aud dissemin alton OF Islander and mlsrepre-
sentAtion The Greeley men have raised
several million dollars for this purpose. 1t
Is q shameful waste Of money, and Mr., Gree
Icy ought to set his face against IL. II he
would commend himself TO the entire country
he should advise his committees TO dlsband,
spend this money 10 some useful and Christian
way, and go West. We believe that he will
do 1t after he hears the news from Maine to-
night.

The growth Of the capital city may well
be Illustrated by the growth Of her public
schools, as well as by the extenslon OF her
boundaries. Compare, for instance, the little,
one-story, shabby building on the corner Of
Fourteenth and q streets with the recently
completed Jefferson school In the Fourth
district This building Would do honor to
any college IN the land, aud redeems the de-
siguation Of public school from any class
ldcatlon In any way detrimental TO the dignity
Of our free Institutions Of learning. II struc'
lures can impress the youthful mind with
respect for education and the free system 80
happily and successfully inaugurated In our
city, this new building, IS we'll as the others
recently finished, will assist materially.
Beside new schools Of imposing appear
ance, we have new markets, parks new
streets and new bulldogs going on and up"
with astonishing rapidly, Some may sneer,
bat none can gainsay the evidence constantly
produced Of active progress, and astonishing
growth of city at one time given up by the
wiseacres ~ never to succeed or be ought
