The tew Hoard ol School Controllers. Bom branches of the Legislature have passed, and the Governor has signed, a bill; taking from the School Directors of Philadelphia the power to elect the School Controllers, and Testing it in tho Courts. The completion of the Various preliminaries necessary before the bill could go into effect will be hailed with gratifi cation by our citizens. The old system of election had become thoroughly incompetent, not to Bay corrupt. The constitution of the Bectional Boards was always auch as to make them always stand nine of one party to throe Of the other. The choice by such a body was always a partisan one. The candidate had no examination into his qualifications further than an inspection of the ticket he had voted for the past few yours. And when no requisite but party enthusiasm was necessary, it is not smrprising that tho office was given to the smallest order of politicians. We feel no Surprise that it frequently happened that the ignorant had a majority of the Board, but we are rather astounded that there was ever Selected a suitable gentleman. The determi nation to make an effort to effect a change first became apparent about a year ago, at which time we spoke earnestly in favor of the reform. The agitation has since been kept up, and it s with surprise that we see that the measure has been adopted so speedily. We felt .well assured that it would ulti mately come, but that, within a single session, it should be adopted, is cause for hope of an improvement in our Legislature. Mr. James N. Marks was the author of the bill, and de serves great credit for the steps he has taken to hasten its passage. We feel confident that, under the new regime, we will see a marked improvement in the control of our common schools. Tho office of Controller will cease to be a small reward for party services, and become one of the most honorable positions in our municipality. It will soon be held to be the highest compliment which could be paid to a man, that ( the courts should deem him qualified to superintend the education of a hundred thousand children, and select him out. of all his fellows to have a voice in the management of the curriculum of studies. As in Boston, so will the position become here a post to be sought for by all as an honor, and given only to the best. We hope that the first steps of the new Board will be to eschew all political influences, and the choice of teachers be influenced only by merit and not by partisan feeling. What Constitutes Ilussian America. When the treaty between Russia and the United States in regard to the purchase of Russian America was made public, every publio man and newspaper looked and talked wisely, but were careful not to be too com mittal, for, with the exception of Mr. geward, nobedy had heard of Russian America further than by name, and we doubt if the Secretary of State knows anything about it himself. The Nation, however, has been going into the subject, and gives us the following succinct account of the beauties of our proposed acqui sition, which are certainly instructive : ' IluHHtan America Is Inhabited by fifty thou sand fishing, trapping, fur-bearing Esquimaux, and nine or ten thousand Russians, Kassiati A merit-ana. and neoule whom the im7...u.f(rs cull AloooU and Koulaks. They Import a good pari oi ineir provisions, and ex nor 1 1 a yearly diminishing quantity of furs. Tiiecc country Is a liozen wilderness, belter knowu to Arctic explorers and whalers than to most other men, Mid probably of no possible value to any men but them, thesemi-clvilized tribes that support existence there, and the Ilussian settlers w no trade with them. The territory Is larger than eight Htates tike New.'York wonld be, its area being 894,000 square miles. What we want of it, unless to take u solitude and call It .Seward, by erecting It Into a Territory, we do not know, but we can buy the privilege of flying the stars and stripes over a colony, and a worthless colony, by paying seven millions of dollars for it. This we suppose Congress will not do. There Is no good reason for doing it, and several good reasons for not doing It. We do not want far-distant, detached colonics, nor ice and snow territories, nor Esquimaux lellow-clll.euM, nor Mount Saint Klias, and there Is nothing else to be hud from Alaska and Barrow's Point, so far as we are iniormed. The Czar's intentions, aside from bis design of getting the seven millions in gold, are doubtfu.. It may be that he thinks New Archangel not worth the powder and shot he may have to expend in its uel'enso iu case of a new Eastern war. It may be that he wauts to Impress Europe with the Idea of the closeness of friendship that must exist between Kassia and a country for whose suke Hussla cuts oil' a ii mo. xiut wiiu uu inert) considerations we nave no concern, we are to consider our own Interests, say yes or no to Mr. Heward'H ntilmn. rlcal project of saddling us with a frozen desert of a colony and we imagine there will be little aimcuuy in cnoosing uie ngui answer. Senator Saclsbuky's drunkenness has be come so habitual as to force the Senate, out of mere self-protection, to institute measures for his expulsion. This step ought to have been taken long ago, but a natural disinclination on the part of the Senate to affix such a public brand of Infamy upon one of their number, has led to the toleration of an evil which has become a notorious scandal. Saulsbury had o be forcibly removed irom tae Chamber yes terday, and lay drunk upon the floor of the coat-room until the close of the session. Put him out. General Sciiokikld at Work General Schofield is the first of the military command ers who has ordered the registration of voters provided for in the Keconstruction law. He geems disposed to push matters along without hesitation. Under the law the registration can be made any time before the 1st of Sep tember next. This affords ample time for Laving the work honestly and thoroughly performed. The Mobile Tribune, in an appeal to the De- i mocratic party of the North, is responsible for the following metaphor: "Whon Abolition ism, shaped from ita native ooze into a full formed beast, started on its career of destruc tion, tearing down the ramparts of Holy Writ in order to throttle the South, and through the South the charter of constitutional free dom, which was your heritage as well as ours, in those days, Democrats of the North, you stood shoulder to shoulder with the people of the South." "So we did," they will answer, when they know that the Mobile Tribune offers office as a reward, and threatens a new Rebel lion: "It has occurred to us that some among you would not object to go to Congress as representatives from the South. It is likely that wo can elect you, if you help us some what, and, as you can take the test-oath, you can take your seats in the Capitol. If that lie forbidden you, you will have an opportunity of doing with Democratic Congressmen what some of you say you will do, if need be, with the next Democratic President (a safe threat, probably) seat him by force of arms. The time is hastening the enemy taking position and planting batteries. Up with your colors, Democrats of the North I" Some of our Democratic contemporaries are particularly sarcastic on the United State3 Senate because it consults the membor of the lower House before it confirms a nominee in his district, and characterizes such courtesy as "cowardice," and states that "it cannot ven ture to confirm a nominee without asking per mission of the member." A moment's reflec tion will show that such a course of conduct i3 eminently proper. Who is better qualified to know the abilities of a man, a Senator from a distant State or the representative from the district in which the would-be officer resides f And if there be any personal objection, who should be consulted soonor than the repre sentative of the people over whom the offloer is to exercise control ? Such a referenoe is not only due to courtesy, but to justice and policy. Authoritative Interpretation ok tub Law. If any of our Generals in command of Dis tricts, under the Reconstruction law, are doubtful as to the extent of their powersunder that act, we would advise them to read the President's veto messages of the original and supplementary bills. They will there find that their powers are practically unlimited. This is the President's rjicial interpretation of the law; and, of course, he is too consistent to back down from it at this early day. If General Sheridan, therefore, wishes to remove the Rebel Throckmorton from the Provisional Governorship of Texas, let him go ahead. , He has full power to do so, and the country will sustain him in it. The Fairmount Park Extension. The opinion delivered this morning by Judge Alli son, setting aside the award of damages by the jury in the Fairmount Park Extension, will be found in full in our columns to-day. It is extremely spicy, and any one who has a liking for rich developments will not fail to read it, independently of his interest in the matter as a taxpayer. , Next week the music-lovinir citizens of Philadelphia will be presented with a short season of the genuine Italian Opera, the lead ing artists of the troupe being none other than M'me Parepa-Rosa and the world-renowned Brignoli. Both of these are great favorites in this city, as was fully proved by the enthu siastic reception given them at their last ap pearance in concert at the Academy of Music. Brignoli has frequently appeared here in his great operatic roles, while M'me Parepa now makes her dtfbut in this line before a Philadel phia audience. The only thing to be regretted in connection with the matter is the brevity oi the season which has been alloted us. RELIGIOUS NOTICES.

A crmstnnt pain or uneartnent n (Ae pu of the Stomach Which is caused by a permanent contraction of the stomach upon thn undigested food. Jt Kenerally begins Immediately or a short time after eating; Is often very severe and obotlnale. 2d. FlaMence and Acidity. The symptoms arise from the lndlKestiou of food, which fer ments instead of digesting. 3d. Cortivenru and Ixs of Appetite. The symptoms are the effect of the uunatural con d'ltlon of food in (he slomach, and the want of pure bile and pantile J -nee. The stomach Is often painfully distended by wind; the appetite la sometimes voiaclous. 4th. Gloom and I)rpreion of FhUrits. This Mate unfits manv for the enjoyment of life, and is mused by the Impure blood furnished by Im perfect digestion. In this stage or tne disease many persons commit suicide. Thereisacon slant iorebodlnii ot evil, and au lndiUiirenoe and positive lnubility to perforin the oiuces of life. 6th. THarrhcea After hcinn at first costive, the suflertr Is nlllieted with diarrhoea, which Is owlne to a diseased condition of tbe bowels, produced by the undigested food, which Is evacuated in the same condition as when eaten, and of course gives no strength to the system. 6th. Pains in all rartsofthe System Arise from the action of impure blood upon the nerves. They are felt chiefly in the bend, sides, and breast, and In the extremities. In many case there is an uneasiness lu the throat, with m sense of choking or suffocation; the mouth la often clammy, with a bad taste aud a furred tongue. , 7lh. Consumptive Stmptoms and Palpiation of the Heart. Many persons pronounced as having these dlaeases have, In luct, not hing but Dys pepsia, the lung and heart disease being only fcymploms. 8th, Cotigh. This Is a very frequent symptom of Dyspepsia, and leads very often Into con firmed consumption. 9th. Want of Uleej). A very distressiug symp tom, resulting from mental derangements. 10th. Symptom of External HeUition.H pa tient Is atlected painfully by cold and heat, which is owing to unnatural dryness of skin, and the skin is often alteeted by eruptions and tetters. The gloomy dyspeptic avoids society aa much as possible. 11th. Vomiting. A frequent and distressing symptom. It relieves the pulu, but euiaolaUja and wears out the patient. 12th. Diztincss, dimness of vision, headache, and staggering in walking. These are very alarming symptoms, which are speedily removed by our medicines; but if neglected are quickly followed, by numbness and sudden death. 13tb. It Is Impossible for us to give all the symptoms of liyt-pepsin, lu so small a space, but tiie above are considered sulllcieut, if we add that tbe patient loses his memory and regard to surraundlng objects, and frequently becomes morose auu boui in disposition, vy e snouiu say, however, thut pulna in the Joints and stitfuess of the limbs, which go by the name of rheuma tism aud neuralgia, are produced by Dyspepsia. Also, a hnrduc-s of the muscles of the abdomen, which becomes contracted aud hard; and In some cases the belly sinks, Instead of being gently prominent. N. B. Perhaps we have not said enough of that strongest symptom of Dyspepsia, melan choly. We have examined hundreds or cases of Dyspepsia, who were so much affected in their minds that they constantly forbode loss or their reason, which unfitted them for business of any kind, and many of them have been patients of tbe Insane Asylum, who are now permanently cured by our medicine. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent yearly, and hundreds ot thousands of the best men and women of America linger In pain and die, and fill a premature grave, with that awful disease. Dyspepsia. Tbey try this physician and that physician, but alas I alas! no relief, no cure; and the next we hear of them they have gone "to that bourne from whence no traveller returns." Out of the thousands of coses of Dyspepsia that have used Dr. Wlshart's Great Atnerloaa Dyspepsia rills and Pine Tree Tar Cordial, not one of them lias failed of a perfect cure. We warrant a perfect cure In every case, no nadier If It be twenty years' standing. Sold by all druggists everywhere, and at Dr. Wlshart'a Office, No. 10 N. Second street, Philadelphia. Pa.
