What has become of Montgomery
Blair? 1t is a full month since the
sound of his voice, uplifted for fraud
and Tilden, has been heard. Is any
thing the matter with that busy jaw:
A story used to be told of a venerable
grandam of New-Jersey, whose lower
Jaw had a curious habit of slipping
out of Joint while she was in full
conversation. AS she was deaf. she
never discovered the disarrange'
ment, but went on with the motions
of talking, though no sound issued
forth. The other members of the
family, duringltheir movements back
and forth in the room where the old
lady sat, used to put forth helping
hand as they passed bv, and lit the
law back to its place, when the con-
yersation would once more become
audible. This performance, repeated
at intervals dozen times day, used
TO be witnessed with mingled emo
tions by the casual visitor, but it had
become such habit in the household
that it was always gone through with
in the most matter.Of. fact way. Per-
haps Mr.. Blair has been visited with
a similar infirmity. and no one dares
take the responsibility Of "slamming
up" his jaw.-N. Z Tribune

A thorough canvass of the news

favorite of Democratic editors. Thus
there are 65 Republican journals

10 for Sherman. OF the Democratic

New School Law for the Stats.

A bill is in preparation, and will
be introduced in the Senate, to re-
wise the school law of the state. The
proposed bill is based on the measure
proposed at the last session of the
legislature by Mr.. Stump. 1t retains
the provision for Il fte .sgsi.is .cs,ss, 81
system throughout the state, and
provides that the State Board of Ed
ueatlon shall consist of seven mem
oers, to be elected by the first seven
Judicial circuits of the state, the peo-
pie of each judicial circuit to elect one
member of the board. The state
board shall have the appointment of
the county school commissioners.
The appointment OF the latter is to
be regulated in the same manner AS
the First Branch members of the
Baltimore City Council now name
the members Of the School Board of
Baltimore. The member of the state
board for the judicial district is to
submit the names of the school com.
mlssioners for the counties in his
respective circuits, and the state
board shall confirm, or if the names
are Objectionable, it may reject them.
The state board shall also contract for
books, stationery, &C., for the public
sch in the various counties of the
state; and the county school com.
missionersshall purchase any quantity
of books, &C., that may be required
from such firms or persons with
whom such contract has been made
by the state board. The members OF
the state board shall be ex-officiO
trustees of the State Normal School,
and the faculty of that institution
shall consist of one principal, two
male and two female teachers, The
sum of $4,000 is to be annually APP
propriated to pay the salaries and
ahu aIsU rne salafy OF me state SG-
perintendent. who, as at present,
shall be the principal of the State
Normal School. The county school
com missioners shall have the ap~
pointment of the district school truS-
tees, and shall have charge of the
school buildings, &c. A tax of 10
cents on 500 of property shall be
levied by the state for school pur-
poses but. if the state appropriation
is not sufficient, the county school
commissioners may levy an addi-
tional county tax for the purpose.
High schools may be established in
the various counties, on the condition
that the county commissioners pre-
sent buildings to the school commits
sioners with that object in view.
One-half of the expense is to be paid
out of the school fund, and the other
half by the pupils visiting the high
school. The members of the state
board are to serge without pay {; but
they may employ clerical service, and
their expenses for travelling, &c,
shall not exceed 1,000. Their office
is to be at the State Normal School,
where they shall hold quarterly
meetings. No books of a partisan or
sectarian character are to he used in
any CT the schools. The other feas
lures of the bill are similar to the
law now in existence.

TRUE DISCIPLES.


From the opening of the Saviour's public
life we are led at a step across the events of a
year into the period of his highest popular
ity. He who stood alone in the wilderness is
now the centre of interest for the whole ma
tion. He has traversed all the villages of
Galilee, (Matt. 4. 1926 everywhere attracting
the attention of multtudes by his living ut
terances, so different from the dry formulas
of the scribes, and by his wonderful works of
healing. He has twice visited Jerusalem, as
serted his authority by driving the traders
from his Fathers house, (John 2. 1919 and
revealed his power by the miracle at Bethes-
da, John 5. l-l3) He is now once more in
his own Galilee, among warmer hearts and
more willing minds Than those Of the un-
friendly Pharisees ofthe capital Over all the
land has been borne the news that Messiah
has come, and the masses. weary with the
burdens of both Church and State, and eager
for the new kingdom of God, throng around
him, expecting to be led at once to liberty.
The Saviour, after night of prayer upon the
mountains summit, has Just chosen from the
company of his professed disciples twelve
men to listen to his teachings, and then to go
forth and proclaim them through the land
Sitting upon level plain on the mountains
brow, with the blue of an Oriental sky over
head. and the cleaning waters OF the Lake
below, the twelve seated at his feet, and the
multitude circling in waves around, every
eye fixed and every ear attent, he opens his
lips to declare the foundation principles of
the new gosple, the Magma CHa1ta of the
Kingdom whichis to endure when the thrones
OF earth shall have crumbled.
