The bill passed by the New York legisla-
ture to retire teachers in the public schools
an half pay. after twenty-five years Of con-
tinuous service, has been vetoed by Gov: Cor
nell. The reasons assigned by the governor
for his veto are that teaching is creditable
and meritorious pursuit, not dangerous to
either health or life, as in the case with SOL
diers, fremen and policemen that it does
not require any greater preparatory study to
fit one for teaching than for the other pro-
fessions; that the pill woald retire many
teachers by the time they reached the age of
IS, and enable them to enter other pursuits.
though still capable of rendering good ser
vice to the schools. The American policy
the governor thinks is opposed to pensions
in the civil service.
