ARLINGTON SCHOOL. The Washington
Chronicle says: the parents of the children
who have been attending school at the Colum,
bia school house at Arlington are very anxious
t, icaru what disposition the trustees propose
to make of their application for a male teacher,
tGyv being DESTROYS to obtain one as soon as
p3>StIc, believing that in the event OF the
uusrc, declining to make any change it will
b, u,c.>>ary for them to employ one at their
owl cxpcus,, AMI decline TO allow the school
house tc be used for u public s.huol, it being
the property Of an association. Political or re-
hgiuus sentiment should not be allowed to 10
tlucucc the selection OF teachers 10 public schools,
supported by taxes derived from the citizens.
Irrespective of religious Sects or political par
ties. They should be pro bono publico.
Il is understood that the difficulty iu this
case arises precisely from the fact that the po-
lltIca al religious opinions of the teachers
who are selected by the trustees, irrespective
oi hose Opinions, are canvasscd by the parents
above mentioned, or at least by a portion oil
them, aud that 90 teacher, however, excellent,
will >ut unless he or she can pronounce the
Mbjoicth Of anthology according to the stan
card Ut those self.coDstituted ntallibles The
present status Of the case is that the trustees oil
the school house have refused to allow its usc
ey OF the sort they wish, to which dlctatlon, II
i presumed, the District Board will not sub,
nit. Within three years the school has had
iour Of both sects, two parties in politics, and
three, if not four different religions.
