We have pleasant sequel to the success Of the
Loan Exhibition IN the announcement that the
Academy of Design is to reopen its art schools For
six years previous to October, 1875, it sustained
efficient free schools. Meantime it had no
income save from its exhibitions, and from
the Suydam bequest. The revenue from these
sources was hardly sufficient to meet the current ex-
penses, and so the Academy steadily ran deeper and
deeper in debt At last its managers found it pru-
dent TO discontinue the instruction which had here
tofore been provided, and which had proved
so serviceable to art and honorable to the
country. An appeal had been previously
made to the public for money to continue this SER
vice but the appeal met with scarcely response.
The brilliant success of the Loan Exhibition leaves
the Academy-in spite Of the unequal distribution
by which it failed TO get for its uses all the re-
ceipts at its own doorswlth barely debt of So 900.
Its managers have promptly resolved to repeat
the experiment of maintaining efficient art school,
which will open on the 1st OF January next under
the charge of their old instructor Prof. Wlmarth.
Small tuition fees will be charged, by which q
portion of the expenses will be betrayed.
AS soon as the means Of the Academy will
permit through endowment or otherwise,
the free schools will be resumed. Until
then il is simply question Of efficient pay schools
or no schools at oil. Prof Wilmarth Is recognized
as one Of the best teachers now known to art
students anywhere and the regstablishment of the
school at the Academy is an occasion Of public
graduation.

TIVE KAJJROAD SURRENDER.

"The King of France, with thrice ten thou
"sand men, Marched up the hill, and then
"marched down again." Mr.. Vanderbilt has
been called railway king, and resembles the
King of France in one respect at least.
Doubtless the liege subjects and well-paid
hirelings of the King of France pronounced
his exploit the most magnificent military feat
in all history, and INDECENT poets sang its
praises in very mortal verse. The poets of the
railway king edit newspapers. His hencbmen
and liege subjects are doing their duty, and
possibly they believe that Mr.. Vanderbilt has
done great thing for the City of New-York
in general and for himself in particular But
Mr.. Vanderbilt is not an idiot, and he proba-
bly consoles himself with the wise reflection

New-York, certainly, has no occasion to
wish that Mr.. Vanderbit's other day may come
soon. In these columns the effect of his opera

Mr.. Hewitt's charge against the honesty OF
the New York Post-0ffice may well be called
startling; it il absolutely incredible. No one
will question for q moment his own faith in
the accusation which he makes, or infer
that any personal reflection is cast on
Postmaster James, of whom Mr.. Hewitt
has spoken so highly in times past; but he
musg be lab0ring under some delusiOn. The
New-YOrk Post-Oflice, under Mr.. James, has
become, probably, the best conducted office in
the country, and its management, i'll every
detail, has the confidence of the whole
community. 1t is laying too heavy a
tax on credulity now to ask us to believe
that the machinery of this Office has
been prostituted by Infamous means to partisan
ends. 1t is not so much as insinuated that any
official, high in rank in the office, is concerned
in the affair, and, on the other hand, it would
have been next to impossible for a subordinate
to carry on q systematic tampering with the
hundreds of letters daily received by the head
of national political committee without official
conniyaDce and protection. The charge Will
be investigated at once, of course, and we
shall soon know what foundation of truth, if
apy, there is for this Indictment. Meanwhile
thero VIII DC very geheld iCSiO' w IN" '''
Mr.. Hewitt did not make his charge while the
alleged Ofiense was i'll course of daily
repetition. He says he supposed it
would be useless; it could not have
been so. Such charge, coming during a
heated campaign, would have aroused even
greater excitement than now, and would have
been investigated at once and without waiting
for Congress or any other slOw-moving body.
1t would surely not have been useless, if Mr..
Hewites charge has any foundation but de-
lusion. to the people whom Mr.. Hewitt in part
renfesents.

Now we understand Cronin's "uncommon "

Really there are limits TO the most oblging dispo-
sition. The newspaper. besides the large general
information which it furnishes. often receives de-
mands for scraps of private and personal knowledge
sometimes of kind which it is in no situation to
supply understandingly. The Western person who
has invested One Cent in asking THE TRIBUNE
where he "can buy full bred Newfoundland pup"
must seek for his facts elsewhere. Possibly he
might accomplish something by judioious advertis-
ing but he must be warned that "full-bred New
foundlsnd pups are not easy TO get. Whatever
price he may pay he must not be surprised TO find the
little creature though warranted by all the oaths TO
New-York tribune., 1876-12-21

The United States Senate is an able and
laborious body, and fully earns, Ill these eX-
citing times, its aggregated compensation.
One day it attacks the subject of mileage with
a dash and brlliancy that challenge the admi-
ration of the civilized world; another day it
discusses at solemn length the relative proper
ton or disproportiOn of the Senatorial and
Presidential salaries; whenever it runs out OF
a topic it discusses CrOnin by the hour in all
his national and international aspects Yes
terday there was a luminous debate over the
new name to be given the new Territory OF
Pembina, and the bosom of the average red
man in the gallery must have swelled with
pride when he found the American Fathers
familiar with all the dialects of the abOrigines.

Progress of Oregon.

The biennial report on the progress
of Oregon gives the white population of
the state in 1875 as about 100000,
against $1,000 in 1870, but, though
the growth of population is slow, a
prodigious amount ofwealth is produced.
Nearly 10000 acres of land are under
cultivation, G,25O, 200 bushels of wheat
were raised, over 5000, 900 bushels of
