Of nil tho victories achieved by the democracy this fall, the victory in New York is the most important, tho most brilliant. It is tho largest, mast popu lous, and most wealthy State in the Union, and wields a powerful influence upon the other States. Tho result in Now York makes it almost certain that -the Democrats will elect the next Presi dent of tile United States. Had this great State with its 38 Electoral votes, adhered to the enemies of the country, the 1 most sanguine 1-eraocrat would haye despaired of success In the great contest of 1868, Both parties felt this, and hence it was that the recent contest in New York was carried on with so much vigor, determination and real.— It was death to the party that was to be defeated. Never in the history of party warfare was such ah effort made as the Negro party made to save New York from the march of the popular upheaving—tho great ground-swell, that lias been mani fested in all tho elections held this fail. The National Republican Committee, the Congressional Republican Commit tee, the Colored National Committee, the Equal Rights Committee, with hum bug “General” Sheridan ns traveling agent, joined the efforts of the Radical State Committee of'New York, in the desperate attempt to stay the tide of popular opinion. The State was liter ally besieged by Radical slangwhangcrs; and political tracts, tilled with swelter ing lies, were as numerous as tho leaves of Valambrosa. Defeated in nearly all the Northern Staten, the conspirators piled into New York all the men and money they could rake and scrape to gether. It Was their last card—their last desperate effort to stifle the voice of an honest and betrayed people. Their salvation or destruction depended upon the result, and their all, their last hope was staked upon the issue. All the en ergies, all the abilities, all the talent, all the cunning, all the means, all the vil lainy of the party were put into play to save them from the impending ruin.— “Atall hazards, and without regard to means or money, we must save the Em pire State,” said the conspirators. But all would not do. The people of New York—a Stale that had contribu ted more men and more money to the -war than all the New England States combined—had made up their minds to strike down the infamous and devilish men who compose the Negro-disunion party. Nothing could move them from their purpose; nothing could appease their wrath; nothing would satisfy them but the condemnation and death of the God-defying Negro party. With one heart, one mind, one will, and one sworn determination, the sovereign I’EOPI.K of New York mot their oppo.s ers at the polls, and defeated them horse, foot and dragoons. Nay, not only defeated them, hut annihilated them. Glorious New York! —all honor to the greatest of our .States —a State that is an Empire within itself. Will the dare- devils in Congress after this response of iNew York to Pennsylvania, Ohio, Con necticut, California, Maine, Kentucky, Maryland, Delaware and Nevada—will they dare go on in their work of trea son? Will they continue to outrage public sentiment and public decency, and put the people at defiance? Wo trow not. But if they do; if they per sist in their treason, then the people will demand of President Johnson that stronger measures he used against them. The yeomanry of the country are in no humor to be trifled with longer. They are angry, and in terrible earnest, and they have sworn hi their hearts that this country shall not he torn to pieces, nor be controlled by semi-barbariaa ne groes. This is their deteyminalion.— Lot the conspirators then take iieed, if they do not desire to feel the people’s Wrath, UmiOCKACY AMI I.VI-F.I.I.KinXCK After the Pennsylvania election, the New York Tribune said: “If there was neither a newspaper nor a common school in the country, the Democratic party would he stronger than it is.” If this statement be true, how is it that in the City of New York, where more ami abler newspapers are published and read than amongst the same population else where, where the public schools surpass in excellence any in the world, and are attended by one hundred and fifty thou sand pupils, yearly—how is it that New York rolls up a Democratic majority of (10,000? How is it that Philadelphia, the second city of the. Union, with its multitude of newspapers and its splen did system of jrce education, gives a Democratic majority? How is it that Boston, tlie centre of refinement and in telligence, the Athens of America, which boasts that It contains more wealth and intelligence than any city of the Union—how is it that Boston gives a Democratic majority ? How is it that Baltimore, renowned during half a cen tury for her educated men and beauti ful women, gives a Democratic major ity of 15,000 ? How is it that San Fran cisco, the Queen City of the Pacific slope, the centre from which radiates the new civilization of tlfo far west, how is it that she gives a Democratic major ity ? It would be useless to add to this list the cities of the West and South, or the Smaller cities of Brooklyn, Albany, Lancaster, Harrisburg and others which give Democratic majorities. In view of these facts we challenge contradiction to the assertion that wherever there are newspapers and schools, wherever there is education, intelligence and virtue, there the Democratic party is in the ascendency. If the Republicans will continue to claim all the intelligence in the land, they had better get up a now set. of facts. It Is estimated by the New York 1 imes and other journals that the pure ly partisan legislation of the late session of Congress has added to the national expenses oyer one hundred and seventy live million dollars. The reconstruc tion act alone will cost that, apart from the disabilities it imposes upon the South to meet its share of the national expenditures. The Democratic victories on the sth brougiit gold down with a rush ou the oth. BEAR THIS, EVERYBODY The New York Herald, it is well known, has been one of the most zeal ous, as it has been the ablest Republi can paper in the United States. It was Mr. Lincoln’s organ in tho Empire State, anil with great power, and often with more zeal than prudence, sustain ed all the ;icts of his administration, with tho exception of an occasional growl at its corruptions. Tho Herald believed in Mr. Lincoln’s professions, and in the professions of the Republican party when they pretended to be anx ious for a restored Union—for peace— for a reconciliation between tho sec tions. Mr. Bennett, its editor, now finds that lie was mistaken ; lie now finds that instead of sustaining men who were in favor of a whole Union, he wns giving aid and comfort to traitors —to men who made a mock profession of “loyalty,” for no other purpose than to hoodwink and deceive the people, tiie hotter to unable them (tho conspira tors,) to make the negro the ruling pow er in our once happy land—happy until an unprincipled sot of political gam blers ami thieves got possession of it. Mr. Bennett, like all men of sense, has got ids eyes open, and, notwith standing his Republican proclivities, he sounds the alarm, and appeals to the people of all parties to fly to the rescue of our threatened country, and save it from negro domination. Ho says the negro trust not and shall not ruie this country, and this sentiment will be re sponded to by every decent white man in America. But, to the article from the New A ork Herald. We, may men tion m passant, that tho Herald supports Gen. Grant for next President: [From U,r Xcw York Ucrnhl.\ The Ma'aer Omsliun nml ll,c Early, Shall this continent bo given up to barbarism for a fanatical experiment and a party scheme? This, and none other, is now tlie question before the American people. Shall wo throw away what we have acquired of science and civilization, blot out our history, give up all aspira tions of the future, that the nigger may become supreme and restore tire land to that happy state of nature in which Af rica now is? is Africa such a magnifi cent evidence of the nigger’s greatness that the example of its history should in ditce us to change our system for his?— For uncounted centuries the negro has had possession of that continent and never built a city, never bridged a river, never made the smallest discovery hav ing any tendency to widen the little space that separates him from tile gorilla —never even borrowed the discoveries of races with which he came in contact, ex coptns they supplied moreellicient means for the gratification of ids instinct for cruelty. Salli is the history of the nig ger in his native land, iiui ho comes ?o another continent, becomes subordinate to a race that forces him to labor, and. presto! thereisa change! freedom had kept him a brute, sloven, made him'a man, and what must the second freedom make him 7 Lord of the ascendant! He must be the master and must control'lpe political destinies of tho nation, though It be to tlie exclusion of a race of while men without superiors on the face of the earth. Such is the drama now in pro gress. Tho white man of the North holds down tho white man of the South while the nigger tramples upon him. Wendell Phillips and Vhad Stevens are -rigid.- There is nothing in the platform of the republican party but the nigger, and no other subject in national polifics worthy of thought, by comparison with the discussion of the position, but the rights anil the powers the nigger is to have iu tlie nation. Tins involves the most momentous revolution a people over passed through. It involves tho com plete, overturning of our present social nhd.politioul system. Wo are accustom ed, to leek upon the French Uevohuion ns a sufficiently terrible chapter of his tory ; yet that was only a war between classes, all of whom were of tlie same race, and its bloodiest phase was merely the insanity of revenge. Here it is in sisted that a superior race shall give way to an inferior, when that inferior race lias derived only from contact witli the other wind semblance of humanity it lias. Men whose fathers fought side by side with the men of the North in three wars fur the honor of tlie republic—men ol a race whoso instincts are nil towards progress—must yield to a race wiiose in stincts are so positively the other way, (hat. left alone, they fall to absolute bar barism and wildness in a single genera tion. Of what moment arc rimiidal dis cussions, free trade theories, or political hairsplitting of any sort, by comparison with tlie deliberation of tins nigger ques tion—bearing with Has it does tlie possi bility that tlie Westward progressof civi lization is stayed, was definitely arrested by tlie success of tlie Northern people in tlie great war that tljey supposed was a war against barbarism ? Nothing can have forced tlie repub lican parly to its present extreme posi tion in regard to the nigger, hut a senti ment of desperation, a leellng that tins degraded nice is its forlorn hope, and that if it eunnot ride through the slave vole it must relinquish power altogether, Tho attitude of tlie Northern people justifies this thought. The protest of the people lit the polls —a protest heard from tho widest separated extremities of Hie nation not only announces to the republican leaders Hint they have gone farther than tlie people would permit, but Unit they have gone so far they can never hope to secure popular confidence again. To abate some portion of tlieir pretension would therefore be useless, ami they des perately choose to push the game to its ultimate limit, hoping yet to control by means of tlie power to be given to tlie nigger. It is clear enough that this is in ail ways a murderous policy—murderous to tho country if it prevails and to tlie men who have planned it if the people can see their purpose. And the people must he made to see ; and thus every jut gained in power given to tlie nigger will be lost by tho depth that this policy will inevitably give to the reaction of the nation against tho bold, bad, unscrupulous knot of poli cians who are definitely determined to ruin if they cannot rule. Bull Itini aid not destroy the Union, nor will UenioenlLlc victories destroy the Unloii-lleimb llcnn imrly.— JVar Yorh 'jribnnc. If the battle of Bull Bun did not de stroy the Union, Greeley and his party of conspirators did. The Union is now virtually destroyed, and ten States, in stead of aiding in the liquidation of the National debt, are an expense to us, and the whole burthen is borne on the shoulders of thcjieople of the North.— But, we will not despair. The people now see, if they never did before, the aims and objects of the vile men who have had control of the Government for more than six years. And as McClellan was called on to destroy the effects of the Bull Run defeat, ho' may be called on again to rescue our country from the hands of worse traitors than were those who then menaced it. The cost of running this Government under Radical dis-imiou rule, is about eight hundred millions of dollarsper year, and thnt'iu a time of profound peace.— When a Democratic administration spent eighty millions a year, the party now in power howled about extrava gance, and wanted the country brought back to the days of the fathers of the Republic. We got it back to the good old days of Adam ami of Eve, with a vengeance, Thirty dollars per week, to each man, woman and child, are now expended by “the best Government upon earth !" If we cannot get a cheap er and better one, wo had better return to a primitive condition, Let us have h change, THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN The news of our glorious Democratic victories has sent a thrill of heartfelt joy' and gratitude through tho great popular heart of the country. It is not the ordinary feeling of exultation over partisan success, but is something deep er and loftier—a feeling which would rather find expression in devout thanks giving than in Waning bonfires and noi sy demonstrations. The history of the list six years iiad almost convinced our truest patriots that mankind were not .capable of self government. No other people could have borne so submissive ly tho outrage, imposture and oppres sion which the American people have endured since the first inauguration of Abraham Lincoln. We saw all the fundamental principles of civil liberty broken down and trodden under foot.— We saw the rights of free speech, a free press, the habeas corpus and tho trial by jury denied and taken away. We saw men-torn from their homes at the dead hour of night without warrant of law, tried without court or jury, and impris oned without judgment or sentence,— Wo saw the. Constitution contemptu ously set aside, as a thing of the past— pronounced too. antiquated for modern ideas of progress, and openly and boldly repudiated by a Rump Congress, rep resenting a contemptible minority of the people, who boasted thatlhey legis lated “outside of the Constitution.”— Wo saw the governments of ten States ot the Union overthrown, their execu tives unseated, their courts closed, their Legislatures abolished, and the lives, liberty and property of the people placed at the absolute disposal of mili tary dictators whoso citiof recommenda tion for appointment had been that they heartily sympathized with the despotism they were to enforce. We saw all these crimes perpetrated in the name ofjihcrty. and yet the people sub mitted as if they were slaves. To pro test was to brave the - dungeon or the halter. Through out this- fearful trial, tlie mas ses of the Democracy never lost faith in its principles, hut there were some.who grew weak j n tho faith and joined tlie ranks of mu-adversaries. There is an Eastern story of an aged man who re ceived a commission from the Deity to proclaim to Ids people that arain should fall upon tho earth for nine days and nights- Upon whomsoever tlie rain fell, upon-him and his children should fall the- spirit of madness. They were therefore to retreat to a cavern by tho river, to save themselves from the terri ble scourge. When tho ominous day arrived, tho prophet retired to the ap pointed cavern, and there remained alone, during tho appointed time. On .the tenth morning lie came forth and sought* his brethren. He beheld war and bloodshed and confusion all around him—brother was armed against broth er, aut 't father against child. Women, once tender and gentle, urged on tlie cruel strife, and holy men of religion applauded eacii deed of blood. Flames kindled by a brother’s hand burst from every homestead, and helpless women ami children were driven forth to starve. Amidst the general confusion his own brain began to reel, and spying in a fur row a quantity of the maddening water still unevaporated, and uttering the last words of reason “it As- rain to he none in a world of madmen" plunged into tlie liquid poison, and came out as mad and wretched as Ins neighbors. So it seem ed as if wo had become a nation of mad men. To be insane and fiendish was to be popular; and many who had true manhood in their breasts plunged into tiie maddening wnters'of a bloody fanat icism that they might become as blood thirsty and as “loyal,” as their neigh bors. But the masses of tlie Democrat ic party never lost faith in tlie virtue and intelligence of the people. They believed that the dance of death could not be kept up forever—that there would come a day of returning reason, when men should rise above tlie level of brut ish 1 masts. That trust lias been re warded the prayer of faith lias been answered. Tile vote of Connecticut, California, Iventucky, Maryland, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New \ork, New Jersey and even Massachu setts has vindicated the faith ol the De mocracy, and proclaimed in a voice too clear and loud to be misunderstood, that there is a great revolution in popular feeling sweeping over the entire coun try from tiie Penobscot to Hie golden shores of the Paeifie. The people have declared that this isa white man’s gov ernment, and that it has no more legiti mate power than tho people have in vested it with by the terms of the Con stitution. Yes, thank God, tlie people aie again clothed in their rig-lit minds. They have reasserted their capacity for self-government, and tlie “ loyal”" trai tors, however thoroughly they may be organized, however strengthened by ill gotten wealth, however unscrupulous in regard to tho means by which they would secure success, can never again triumph over them. Our friends must remember that tho contests this year were only for the van tage ground in tho great battle which will be fought next fall, between the hosts of liberty and despotism. These contests wo have won, and with pru dence and energy it is already settled that wo may elect tlie next President and House of Representatives. Tlie people are with us. They have decided that the Union shall bo restored and the Constitution maintained, and they .have declared that no negro empire shall be erected on the ruins of tho Republic.— Let us bo true to the principles upon which wo have triumphed, let us work with an energy and zeal before unknown ‘ in our ranks, and with the help of the great Ruler of Nations wo will yet save the country. The fell purposes of the Radical party have become so thoroughly revealed, that people who have suffered them selves to be seduced into blind co-ope ration with it, can .no longer bo deceiv ed. No man who is true to the Consti tution can he a Radical. No man who is in favor of the supremacy of the white man can be u Radical. No man who prefers republicanism to despotism can lie a Radical, No man who is opposed to a Avar of races can be a Radical. Fked Doucihass said in a speech at Newark, New Jersey, the oilier day, (Prod is head cook and bottle-washer for the New Jersey Rads just now,) that “ tee most do away with the Vico Pres idency.” It strikes us, Frederick, that ive (white trash) won’t 40 anything of the sort, THE mriox PACIFIC BAILROAD~ALL BAU* TO THE BOfKY JIOC.MAJt.MS, Not even this country of great achieve ments lias ever before undertaken any industrial enterprise so important as the building of a railway to the Pacific ocean. Less than twenty years ago, Col. Benton advocated in Congress a railroad, “ where practicable,” across the country from the Mississippi to the Pacific coast; but his moderate proposal was considered to ba fan in advauce.even of this progressive* age. And yet to-day, more than one third of this vast work has been finished. The Union Pacific Railroad Company, organized in ISO 3, began to build in 1804, had only fairly get to work in 3SS-5, and in October, ISO 7, have completed live hundred miles of road which has been pronounced by Government Commission el's first-class in construction and equip ment. This Company is constructing the eastern end of the line, beginning at Omaha, Nebraska; while the Central Pacific Company is building the western end, beginning at Sacramento, Califor- nia. The peculiar and impressive features of the Pacific Railroad arc; Ist, Its Im portance os a national enterprise; 2d, The especial privileges granted to it by the Government; and 3d, The unusual care taken ,by Government enactments for the safety of investments in its secu rities. The national importance of a railroad to the Pacific can hardly be over-estima ted. The Government Is spending mil lions of dollars annually in transporting men and material to Us frontier posts; with a railroad In operation, this expense will be reduced at least three-fourths.— The gold and silver mines of the Wes tern States and Territories yield annually about one hundred millions dollars; with the increased facilities for emigra tion, and for transporting the requisite machinery for the thorough development of the mining region which a railroad will afibrd, this production will bo at least doubled. The public lands in Ne braska, and in the Territories west of that State, have been comparatively worthless, because they were Inaccessi ble, and, consequently, unproductive; the Union Pacific Railroad opens all the great valley of the River Platte and vast regions beyond to the occupancy of thrifty emigrants, and has already estab lished such a succession of thriving towns as will bring all land in the vicinity of the railroad into active demand. In cose of foreign war or domestic revolution, the existence of a railway line, by which troops could be conveyed from the Atlan tic to the Pacific, or vice versa, in a week, would be of incalculable value; while under any 1 circumstances of internal trouble, necessitating a repetition in kind of the Utah expedition, thej saving to the Government by means of this road would be enough to construct the entire line. Gen. Sherman has said that u The Government could afford to build the whole road rather than be without it,” and there are abundant reasons for pro nouncing this opinion a sound one. So great are the manifest national ad vantages to bo derived from a Pacific Railroad, that the two powerful compa nies authorized to build it received very extraordinary gran ts from Congress. Do nations of land were made to the compa nies to the amount of 12,800 acres per mile; and then United States bonds, to an average amount of about $30,000 per mile, were advauced_to the Companies, which have the privilege of paying a large part, if not all, of this Indebtedness to the Government, by the transporta tion of malls and war and other national material. No other industrial enterprise ever received so liberal aid from the Gov ernment as this. Having madesuchspecial grants as In dicated Us entire confidence in the full success of the undertaking, the Govern ment took unusual care that those who Joined with it in assisting the Union Pa cific Railroad Company should be amply secured against any probability of loss or failure. The Company was authorized to issue its own bonds to an amount equal to the advances ofctbe-Government, and these bonds constitute the first mortgage upon the road, the claim of the Govern ment being made a second lien. The Government appoints five Directors, who shall look carefully' after the manage ment of the road ; and also three commis sioners, whoso duty it is to thoroughly inspect each section of twenty miles, be fore the bonds can bo issued upon that section. Thus the bonds represent, not a projected enterprise, which may bo com pleted, but a finished and equipped rail road, earning very largely in excess of its expenses, and with a future which can not fall of being eminently profitable. The future business of the only rail road connecting the Atlantic and Pacif ic states must be something marvelous, and we venture the prediction that no single track will long accommodate the endless succession of trains that will crowd Us entire line. Western Europe is waiting for it, as the shortest route to Eastern Asia; and how many anxious hearts in the old home states are longing for it, to join hands with friends and re latives, without the cost and risk of a long, dreary and dangerous voyage in a croweded steamer along two oceans. But if the business of the completed line is to be something marvelous, the lo cal business on the sections already fin ished is not less satisfactory. The earn ings on three hundred and twenty-five miles for a single quarter this season are officially reported at one million dollars,' and as the road goes further towards the great mining regions, this sum must be increased. Every reader of this sheet is lnteresled in the rapid prosecution of this work,— Every new agricultural or manufacturing community established by the opening of this road will add to the national wealth and aid in paying the public debt. Every acre of laud hitherto unimproved, which shall now be cultivated, Increases the store of food for our own population or for export. Every additional ton of gold or silver that is mined puts money in the public purse. The road will be the great agent in the development of the American continent, and its comple tion in 1870 will benefit an entire popula tion. With such a future before it as the finished lino is certain to have, and with so many guarantees for the protection of the interests of those who invest in it, we cannot but think that its bonds consti tute one of the best investments now be fore the American people. Theiri spe cial advantages are set forth elsewhere, and the character of the financial officers of the Company Is sufficient guarantee that those advantages are not exagger ated In the slightest degree.

Brooklyn and Kings County give a Democratic majority of 15,000. The Democratic majority In the State will reach 45,000!! The Albany Argus claims New York by 45,000 majority, with a majority in the Assembly and 15 out of the 32 Sena tors; Thirty-eight counties give the Democracy a gain of 48,671.

In 18G6 the Radicals had 58 majority on joint ballot. One of the Radical Sena tors is an independent. NEW JERSEY. The majority in New Jersey, so far, is 13,492. Seventeen counties out of the twenty-two are Dem ocratic. Every Senatorial district was carried by the Democrats. There is a Democratic majority of one in the Sen ate, and of 30 in the House—making a Democratic majority on joint ballot of thirty-ono. The gallant “Jersey Blues” have fully redeemed the honor of their State. MARYLAND. “ Maryland, My Maryland,” lias not left a grease spot of the Radicals. Col. Bowrie, the Democratic candidate for Governor, and the entire State ticket, are elected by 40,000 majority! The Legislature will be unanimously Demo cratic. There has not been a single radical State or County official elected, pot even a constable. St. Mary’s coun ty gives 1,510 Democratic votes to 39 Radical votes; Charles county 1,229 Democratic to 7 Radical, and Calvert county 889 Democratic to 1 Radical. — Those are “ healthy” counties for “ Cop perheads.” Such are the legitimate re sults of keeping a people down for a few years under bayonet elections. MASSACHUSETTS. Bullock, the Radical candidate for Governor, is elected by 27,000 majority, a Radical loss of over 40,000 on last year’s vote. The Democrats and license law men control botii branches of the Legislatare. Another such a Radical victory in Massachusetts will put the Radical rebels thirty thousand in the minority.

In the extremity of their distress the Radicals of Kansas called upon the strong-minded women to come out and help them. Their Macedonian cry was heard, and Mrs. Susan B. Anthony— whom the public will doubtless remem ber as the whilom vendor of a patent nostrum which “ was never known to fail, if taken in time”—and Mrs. Eliza beth Cady Stanton—who is probably a distant relative of the late Secretary of War—rushed to their relief. In addi tion to these there were five Mrs. Rev erends, four Mrs. Judges, two Mrs. Honorables and two Mrs. Majors, which would seem to argue a fearful amount of domestic unhappiness in the ecclesi astical, judicial, civil and military families of “ Bleeding Kansas.” Most of these ladies are perhaps childless, and having no sons of their own, it is emi nently proper that they should recon struct somebody else’s sons. Doubtless they all take Mrs. Anthony’s syrup reg ularly, to prevent accidents. The telegraphic despatches tell us that on election day, “Mrs. Stanton and Mrs. Anthony visited the polls of each ward in Leavenworth, and addressed the voters. They wore accompanied by the Hutchinson family, who sang some of their campaign songs, and were re ceived in every precinct with hearty cheers for women’s rights and female suffrage.” But Susan’s pills were too strong for Kansas, and both female suffrage and negro suffrage miscarried. The State of John Brown-and Jim Lane has repudia ted the “twin relics,” and so long as “ Bleeding Kansas” continues to bleed the white men will control the polls. THE KENT LEGISLATURE.

Mr. Swartz,- County Superintendent, thou announced that the time bad th rived which,was appointed for the elec tion of the “ mnheh t fixam Ining Com mittee.” Ho proceeded to road the sec tion of the law pertaining to the election and duties of the Committee. ■ Ml*. Coburn, Assiatarit'State Superin tendent, defined the decision of State Su perintendent as to whoin Were dulyqual ified electors. Ho stated that none were eligible'who - did not hold valid certifi cates, those who wero now holding pro fessional certificates, yearly certificate, or diplomas from State Normal School.

Mr. G. .then replied that there was a singular want of respect on the part of the judges toward the opinion of State Superintendent. With his opinion read before them that they still persisted in re fusing Mr, G’a vote. ' Mr. Wherry, replied that the State Su perintendent's opijnion was not his dccU ion, that they should be , very careful as required by instructions, and that they therefore had to 'reject the votes of the teachera.of Carlisle.’ Mr. G. then stated that the teachers of Carlisle had brought to an issue what bad long been desired. He was glad to know that it; would be decided what relation ao independent school district had to gener al school lawsV whether the organic law of s Carlisle was to govern their school operations,, or whether it was amenabk to every general law the Legislature may enact.
