Thirty-eight teachers competed, and but one gained the prize. Latour readers try a spell on it: “It is an agreeable zight to witness the unparalleled embarassment of a harnessed peddler attempting to guage the symmetry of a peeled union, which a sibyl has stabbed with a poniard, re- gardless of the innuendos of the lilies of cornelian hue,” ris The friends of education throaghout the State will regret to learn of the death of Han, Chas.

It seems that all that is necessary in any district where a Republican has been defeated, is to go to Congress and contest the seat. As long as it is neecssary to maintain two-thirds, these outrages will eon- tinuo. eit i Ina Virginia county there has been found a vein of pure kerosene that flows from a creviee in a tock. The radical plunder family at Washing- | ton is none the pappier since Grant's inau- guration. The special of the Age says, the Senate Radicals held a caucus this morn- ine, 15th, with reference to the elective of- ficers of that body, and the result was a per- fect triumph of the “‘carpet-baggers’’ who succeeded in ousting the present Sergeant at-Arms, Mr. Brown, of Illinois, the pare ticular friend of Senator Trumbull, and nominating in his place, one J. R. French, a North Carolina ‘‘earpet-bag’’ Represen- tative in the last House. This was follows ed by the nomination of A. T. Clapp, esq., of the Buffalo Express, for Congressional Printer, in place of Defrees, the present in~ cumbent and particular friend of Schuyler Colfax. This change is attributed to More ton of Indiana, who has ne love for Colfax or any of his proteges. The other nemina- tion was that of a little Yankee named Morrie. from Connecticui, as Executive Clerk, in place of Clarke, the present in- cumbent. Altogether, this day's caucus work has given rise to a great deal of dis- satisfaction in the Radics) camp, and as small as the affair is, it indicates the utter demoralization of the party, which is o ing to the dogs’ as fast as it can possibly go. “Grant's administration being a failure at the outset, and the Congressional mana- wers fighting each other like so many *Kil- enney cats,’ it is not difficult to foretell the calamity which will befall the whole crew ere the expiration of the current year.
