Our Dover Letter.
special correspondence OF the REPUBLICAN,
DOVER, April 1S.-The Downham
school bill came up this afternoon with a
number OF changes that sheared It of a
number oil its orr Sinal features. The
sentiment against the bill was found to
o. SO strong that the projectors found it
necessary to take out of it all the radical
changes and c1hfine themselves to per-
ieeting our present law. The changes
made are clearly In the way of improve
ment and the bill will probably pass.
The bill provides for live certificates,
makes Delaware College diplomas equal
10 a superintendent certificate and paws
teachers while in attendance at the an
nual Institutes.
Mr.. Lodge objected to considering the
Dill at the time for the reason that he
had not had time to look into the matter
thoroughly.
Mr.. biggs did not want any change.
Mr.. w nitemRn made an earnest speech
IN favor oil the bill, and hoped that the
objections urged would not defeat 1t.
The bill was postponed until to-day.
General kenDey has issued the follow
ing orders in relation TO the New York
