The Bulletin, Picayune and Times have
Tor tue past Two weeks been bowling about
the large number of discharged teachers:
and have almost exhausted their vocabulary
OF invectives against the School Board for
dlscharging them, when the fact lie, no
teachers have been discharged at all. The
law makes it the duty Of the Board of
school Directors for the city of New Orleans
10 elect the teachers for the public schools
annually.
In compliance with the law the School
Board, at its session on Saturday, the
eighteenth instant, proceeded to hid said
election, at which more than 800 of the
teachers employed last year--a large ma
Jority OF whom are known to be Dtm0crs tic
IN their sympathies-were reelected; aud
OF the total number of teachers now en-
Eloyed (4371, more than $40 are Of the old
list, and only forty Weight are cOlpred. Con-
slderlDg the charge OF Authorization made
against the Board, is this not remarkable
exhibit
1t Will be remembered that in 1866, when
the city government obt tanned possession of
the SCHOOLS, three hundred teachers, alleged
To oe IN sympathy with the Repub blican
party, were sunmarily dismissed, and vet
no Indignation meetings were held, nor
were the persons employed in their stead
charged BY the public press with having
secured their appointments by immoral in.
huences.
In view of these facts, would it not be
well for Republicans to hold an Indignation
meeting after Our Democratic friends get
I'M ongb, and protest against the great dis
eriminstion made by the board in favor Of
Democrstic sympathizers, and also against
the total exclusion of Republicans from en-
pl l'yment by the CITY government, and the
