THE NEW SCHOOL LAW.

The Raleigh Ne,cs- Observer has
had cess TO the new school law.
The chief changes seem TO be Oat
the county superin,enden,s are re-
lieved Of the duty of visiting and
inspecting the public schools of the
county, aud they can Only suspend a
teacher tor immoral conduct or in
competency, with the concurrence OF
the school committeeman Of the dis
trict. This change shears the coun.
~ superintendent OF bis most impor-
tant powers and rends the Office al
most useless. We regard it as a
very unfortunate step backwards,
and are sure that the friends of edu-
cation in the State will SO consider
it. An abuse is said to have sprung
up in the purchases OF unnecessary
maps, charts, &c, and to remedy
this a provision was adopted insali.
idating all orders given for such
things unless endorsed by the super
in,endent.
"Another provision we regard as
]smportant. Under it teachers OF
private schools may contract to
teach allepupils between the age OF
6 and 81 years, and receive compen-
satiou from the public school fund
This is a good idea, and we hope
that it will often be put into prae
tice.
uNorth Carolina is now advancing
with more rapid strides than ever
before, and one of the great levers
to raise our people to a higher plane
is our school system. No citizen
who loves the State or who feels an
interest in the children who are
hereafter to be the people OF
North Carolina can be Indifferent to
the cause Of popular education. Il
is the one great need VI our people
We must supply the facilities for i'll
accomplishment. Now is the time
} Every year Of delay deprives thou
sands OF bright minds Of the oppor
! tunity of receiving instruction."

The Northern Republican are
indignant OF the rout ofthe Ma.
hone forces in Virginia. They
had hoped that he would retain
control of the State and give
its vote next year for their can
didate and that the moral effect
Of his triumph would cause
other Southern States to fall out
of the Democratic line. His over
whelming defeat has convinced
them that Virginia will vote for
the Democratic nominees in the
presidential contest and that all
the other Southern States will
be ranged on the same side,
The Northern Republican
leaders generally announce 1t to
be their intention to attempt to
array the solid North against
the solid South and that the
presidential campaign will be
fought out on that line. With
that plan In view they will make
violent and passionate appeals
to the preJudices of their people
and endeavor TO revive the old
hatred which once existed be
tween the sections aud which
unfortunately has not yet en-.
tirely passed away. What ef.
feet such appeals will have, IL
as yet unknown but it does not
seem reasonable that they would
amount to much. More than
eighteen years have elapsed
since the termination of hostili
ties IN the field and it would
seem that in that tune tho pas
sions engendered by the wal
would almost entirely cease. We
believe. that the Democrats ear
beat them and that the common
sense Of the Northern people
will rebuke the Republican
leaders for attempting to re
vive the sectional issue.
