TEXT Books USED IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS =
LETTER OF Dr. RUFFNER --Iu response to
resolution of the Seuate DR.. Ruffoer says:
Taking the whole range of our public
schools, there are more than twenty dltferenC
SUBJECTS taught, and the Board OF H iu3atlon
has not prescribed books for more than seven
ence to books on music, physiology compost
aud ancient tunes, American or foreign lltcra-
ture, rhetoric, elocu:ion, chemistry, natural
philosophy, algebra, geomc try, ancient or mod
ero languages. All these subjects are taught,
more or less, in our public schools, and YET 20
attempt has been made by the State Board to
interfere with the liberty of county and city
school boards 10 determining what books should
be used IN these branches.
"All that has ever been done 10 this direc
ton was done during the early part OF 1871, IN
which year the Board of Education prescribed
books 90 spelling, rcadiDg, WTItlog, arlthme-
tic, grammar, and geography; and afterwards
Cd American and on Virginia history. The
board adopted two books on each of the six
elementary studies first named, and allowed to
she school trustees OF each county and city the
liberty Of choosing one or other OF the two
books ou each subject; and after the selection
was made the trustees were required to con-
ine all the schools to that one book, and to al
low 20 other book on that branch 10 be used
They were forbidden even TO change to the al
tentative book Oh the prescribed list without
first applying to the Board of Education for
permission 10 do SO.
"Soon after this time Holiness History Of
the United States was adopted and ordered to
be used in all the schools oi the State to the
exclusion OF all others. The requirement was
afterwards relaxed by the Board of Education
so far as to allow the cities of Richmond, Pc
tcssburg and Norfolk to use Blackburn and
McDonald's History.
"Iu 1878 Miss Magll's School History of
Virginia was put on the State list.

THE ex-SPEAKER ON JEFF DAVIS
FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT

WASHINGTON, jan 10 1875
DISSATISFACTION OF THE DEMOCRATS OVER
THE TURN OF THE AMNESTY QUESTION.
There Is some disgust among the democrats tonight
at the turn the amnesty has taken They say that it
would have been far wiser to defeat Blaine's
political stroke by accepting his substitute
and passing it al once that they make
nothing by the present debate and that If they
had passed Mr. Randall's BILL it could not have passed
the Senate, whereas Baines substitute could. Thus
the democrats some OF them confess, put into
impracticable position and stand before the country
the defenders OF JEFF Davis at the ex
pcnse OF the other persons still unamnestied II is
quite certain that amnesty bill including Davis
pass the Senate, thus the action of the democrats
seems useless.
ANTICIPATED ELECTION OF A LOUISIANA SEN
TOR.
The nom New Orleans tonight is that the
Legislature will try to elect Senator to morrow and
that it is possible of the houses may refuse go
into joint meeting II is not certain however, that
they will be able to prevent election. Under the
act OF 1906 prescribing the of electing
Senator's person having majority of all the votes OF
said joint assembly, majority of all the members
elected TO both houses being present aud voting, shall
be declared duly elected This law passed in order
to prevent house from putting or Senatorial
election II is believed here that the democrats will
try to elect r. II. MARI
