RELATIVE to the new programme of
the democracy, the correspondent of
the Inter Ocean says: A gentleman,
close in the confidence of the president,
says that the new plan of notification
which the democrats have hit upon to
get themselves out of their predica-
ment, will encounter a veto. There
fore, the attempt to withhold money
which is necessary to execute the laws,
will not succeed, and the democrats are
but working themselves deeper into the
slough of despond by attempting it.
Several of them say that if their new
plan to get out is vetoed they will give
up the fight and let the republicans,
greenbackers and the few renegade
democrats pass the appropriation bills,
and thus relieve the democratic party
of thu responsibility for backing down.
There is much elimination and recrimi-
nation among the democrats privately
as to where the responsibility should be
lodged for getting them into this
scrape. A good deal of it is laid at the
door Of Senator Thurman, who is ae-
cused of being the originator of the
whole movement, which threatens to be
a conspicuous disaster. Thurman now
says it will never do to adjourn without
passing the appropriation bills, no mat
ter what the president v%etoes, and it is
charged that had he been a statesman
he could have seen from the first that
disaster was inevitable If the president
was firm. Thurman's presidential pros
poets have been greatly injured, and
Bayards correspondingly advanced.
Bayard eloquently and vehemently
spoke in caucus against the whole
scheme, saying it would end in disas-
ter. He wa roundly abused at the
time, but there is none of 1t now. The
opinion is growing among the demo-
Gratis that there is no way out but a
square backdown. II is conceded that
this will prove very injurious to the
party at the fall elections, but less SO
than to persist in Withholding appro-
priations.

A CURIOUS story comes from New
York. 1t is an assertion that Tom
Moore's bust, that was unveiled in
Brooklyn the other day, bears a remark
BILE resemblance to Thomas Kinselia,
Col. Thomas Carroll, Thomas Fleming
and Thomas Wilson. These four Toms
are members of the st. Patrick's soci-
ETY. of Brooklyn, which presented the
bust to the city. They look very much
alike. 1t is stated that the construc-
ton committee, in their zeal to do
honor to Mr.. Kensella. who is presi-
dent of the society, and the other Toms
instructed sculptor Brady to throw in
q bit of each mans face. The question
now is whether it is a bust of Tom
Moore, Tom Kinsella, Tom Carroll,
Tom Fleming or Tom Wilson.

Curious Girl.

Naples has an episode so odd and 30
dramatic that that 1t will almost surely
be adopted as an effective incident in
some coming play. A late journal Of
that city tells us of a young and beau
tiful girl charged with a novel sort of
swindling. This young lady, whose
name is Rosa del Prette, has been in
the habit of ''making up'' as an old
beggar woman-probably after Fortune
and in this guise collecting aims in
the public streets. She has got so
much money in this as to enable her to

The most touching exhibition of the
age Of deep and tender feeling is the
mutual solicitude that Allen g. Thur
man and Samuel ]. Tilden have for
each other. Mr.. Thurman fears that
the excitement of another candidacy
for the presidency would be too much
for one so feeble and worn and so bow
ed by age as Mr.. Tilden. And the
kindly Samuel is alarmed lest the re-
sponsibility and the anxiety of heading
a great party in a presidential fight
would overcome the aged Ohio senator,
already worn down by long labor
Denver Republican.

The opening prayer was offered by

fair to be of average length.
There was no case tried on Tuesday,
but Wednesday the case of George d.
Percy against the Farmers Mutual
Fire Insurance Company was called and
| a jury impounded but were dismissed
by reason of the points at issue being
law instead of fact. The plaintiff claim,
ed that in the year 1876, he owned a
set of buildings at Newport Center
which were occupied by tenant, and
that while he, the plaintiff, was away
from home on business, said buildings
took fire and were totally consumed /;
that he notified the insurance company
| of his loss but did not send in his sworn
statement of the same on account of one
Dodge, an agent of the company, who
told him to do nothing farther about it,
as they would send man around and
have the matter adjusted. A few months
after this he received notice from the
company that they would pay him moth
ing on the loss. Whereupon, he went
to the officer of the company at Mont
peller to see the officers and endeavol
to compromise in some way. The officers
telling him that they would investigate
farther and make matters all right, b.
returned home relying on those promises

TEXT BOOKS FOR DISTRICT
SCHOOLS.

The most of our readers are doubtless
aware that the last legislature made
change in regard to the method of max
ing selection of schools books to be
used in the district schools of the State.
Heretofore State Board selected and
recommended class Of books to be used,
and the selections made by them were
the authorized books for certain num-
Der of years. On account of the high
price of these books, as well as the be-
lief that some of them are not as good
as they ought to be, quite an opposi-
tion has risen against the system of their
selection, and the books themselves.
Some have believed that the judgment
of the committee of selection, was warp
ed by brides though there may have
been no occasion for such suspicious.
The new law provides that each town
having the district system shall at the
annual March meeting in 1879, and at
every fifth annual March meeting there
after appoint two committee, who with
the town superintendent shall constitute
School Board Committee. This CON-
mittee shall select the books for the
town for the next five years. In case
there are graded schools in town, each
graded school will be entitled to two
committee men for this committee. This
committee must make a selection of
books previous to August 1st, and the
use of the books selected will commence
on the lst of November. 1t is not nee
essary to remind our readers of the i'm
portance of selecting for this difficult
position committee that shall be com.
posed of honest, intelligent and expert

enced men, who cannot be bought. will
not be cheated in the price of books, and
who know enough of books and schools,
SO that they will not recommend worth
less books.
The act referred to gives towns a
right to purchase books for their schools
so that this matter is liable to come up
in the annual meeting in March. The
committees selected for the graded
schools are to be chosen at the annual
school meetings. Clerks should see to
it that the matter of appointing this
committee is mentioned in their warn
ings.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3, 1879.
For committee organized with no
other object than the publication of our
politics, the reluctance of its Democrat
ic members to look into the little irreg-
ularities charged or imputed to reformers
Tilden, Pelton, Marble, Coyle, & Co., is
unaccountable. There has been voted
it all the money asked to an exhaustive
investigation of the whole matter, and
the alacrity with which the reform
members undertook to ventilate the Re-
publican end of it and the rigor with
with which they have pushed their in
quiries until the last hope is dissipated
of making the results contribute to the
exigencies of Democracy, led US to hope
for the most rigid impartiality. But
having exhausted that part of the work,
strange reluctance is manifested to
proceed now that they are brought face
to face with the late Democratic Pres
idential candidate and the men alleged
