The ufifficial Deportment" of - the
Peons) . ltaullaSehool
Since the passage of the p.esento Common
&heel Law, providing fOt the offices of State t
and County Superintendens; the Legislature
made a special appropriation, for the benefit
of the 'Pennsylvania &hoot Journal; pub
fished an Lancaster, fa., authoriiing the piths
A
t). send copies - to all the beards of
directors in•the Surte,te be paid for OUI of the
State treasury. The _reason given out for
this was, that the interests of the cause -of
common school education in the State requir
ed an official organ through which the State
Superintendent couldspublish authoritative in •
attections to directors, teachers, and - others,
'upon such, portions of their. respective. duties
as were' not fully sit forth in the act of As
sembly, and give constructions and decisions
in regard to such portions of the act as might
be liable to be misunderstood, or about the
true intent and meaning of which dispute(
might arise among those engaged io The eze
outioa of•ita vations,p(ovisions.
The adoption of this plan was generally
acquiesced in by the people of the State, -and
in accoidance with its suppoied object, the
"decisions" of the "State Superintendent, as
published from time to time, hava been re
ceived by everybody, if not as "law," yet as
authorized construction •of law, - and fully
binding, unless set aside by the
-State courts.
So far were the decisions in this department
considered. binding, that no one thought of
questioning their official:force. •• They might
•not always be satisfactory to all interested, -7
• as was not the law—yet they were acquiesced
in tied their direction, complied with,the fault
being chaiged, to the law itself. In practice
then, these decisions have been as legal is
the decisions of.ottr district coons. •
Bat the, ,recent controversy between the
Suite Superinterldent and the SuPeriatendent
of Schuylkill county, has thrawt a new light
open this subjeet. - The" power of removing.
County; guperintendents is vested,by the law,
in the Sate Supelinteudent. In construing
this feature of the law, that official state.
that they are entitled to a "fair hearing upon
the charges and testimony against them, if
they deire it." Bat when Mr. Hickok was
asked 'to remorse Mr. Krewson, instead of
notifying hiui that certain charges had been
filed against him, - and that he' could, if be
desired, have a fair hearing:upon them, -and,
after - such bearing, making up his opinion in
the -matter, and it adverse to the incumbent,
removing him and then. making proper in•
(pity as to who in the county was best salted
to fill the vacancy, he, - Ito far as the record
shows, plots in secret with Mr. Rrewspn's
enemies and tivals, selects a snccesor, and
itifOims.Mr.Krewson that be has been ousted.
Of course tie inquiries are made—for 'whit
am I removed !, • -•-and who are my . accusers!
But the only re‘ponse is, in substance : "It
is enough foe you to_ktiow that another is
'all your Station, and you have no privilege to
chatecliise me as to my reasons.' - When
reference is made to his own "decision,"-he
creps out I ppon the shallow 'pretext :-- 1 -My
decisions are noi law, I' am not bound by
•
them.? What nonsense 1 . A.4.,,we1l might a
judge rule a point of ' law one way lo -day,
and another way to morrow, and then en
deavor to shirk responsibility by saying that
his own decisions were 'snot law." 13y the
man's own,record is he condemned. If his
decisions are not: binding upon himself,
directors, t+chers,---everybcdy—should
pudiato hint and them With deserved con
tempt. He having denied their validity,they
should henceforth ho treated as though they
bad not been'made. Any other course would
be the utmost extent of fully.
The repudiation of the ••officia7 Depart
meta" by its authoi, naturally leads to the
inquiry—By what . _ aMbotity are ;the tax
payers of the Siate4required -to. contribute a
large burn of money annually for the support
of a particular journal 'The "offic al"
feaiure being removed,the State-has no, more
dutbority isubscribe.,
tlousand.copient of atoo be distributed free,
'than it has'to pay for a like number of any
other educational, agricultural, scientific,
- literary, political, br other publication in the
State, or elreithere. Is it because it may
chance to he a good , . joitinal I There are
plenty of others'..qually valuable,' and per
hap' many a great deal better. We knots of
I but one feature about this - that lis, not post
secsed by many others. Its editor was tune
of the heroes of the notorious "Buck-Shot
,
War," who desired to treat the elections as
though they had river been, held" In this
respect it has no competitors, but whether
this entitle - sit to be pensioned upon the State.
We leave all-'to determine for themselves.
One - thing deserves particular notice. Tue
cditor in his attempt to bolster up the act of,
the State Superintendent, was but aiding to
carry out, on a snuffler plan the 13uck-Shot
War creed Of 'fleeting the elections as though
they . had never been held." In the first case
he wisbejl to• set aside a State election; in
the latter he aids in repudiating the twice
repeated and alnuist unanimous voice of
12,000 qualified electors, given through the
prope'r tedium; the school boards of the
respeetivif d ists iota of Schuy. lki nottity. •
Perhaps -the Sate Superintendent may.
be acting in this -matter at .the 'asthma) :of
others, but if so, it is no palliation, of the
error. Men should-trot. suffer themselves to
be: used as cafe-Paws to do the Lot jobs of .
scheming patties. :The course of- the editor
of thelancaster Jeurnal and certain parties
in Pottsville, tend-to convey the impression
that a combination kas been in existence to
take from Mr. K. whit was bis by * gift of the
people, and.bestow . it upon - those who had.
out the merit that entitled them to it from the
hands IX those whose right it waffle judge

and unoccupied territory; and that no foreign
State or States should he allowed to i ntervene
in the domestic attYair rof a try_ American people
for the purpose. of suppresising republican in

2. That the Monroe declaration, in -so far
as it related to the threatened intervention of
the Holy Alliance in the concerns of the
Spanish-Ainerican States, was mended 1.,
meet a oarticalar contingency of events, and
therefore pared away with the occasion which
called it forth. - •
3. That the-Monroe'doctrine, in so far as
it relates to the colonization of the American
