Wo Uleni to do justice to both, if weknow it. Both ticket contain I'nion menbbI bbo Bthera. Wo have beard it objectedto Mr. Trabae thai he offered a resolutionthat the SoulherB Confederacy should berecognised, sad that, therefore, he is n Ss- -

ooostoB ist. That is Bll b mistake. 8ome ofthe boot Union man ore for this policy; be-

lieving it tho abort as t way to areid a colLsijn that would bo fatal to all hopes of theI'nioav. Mr. Trabae, like nearly all theCnion men cf tho South, and North, too, isopposes! to coercion. Ho is for the Union,and this resolution was but a means, in hijudgment, to restore it. Wo make this es- -

plaation, not willing to see injustice doneto any real friend of tho Union, who has attho lane time been a good city effioer.

Since this divuiun has taken place, andboth tickets present generally good men wLodo sot differ on national politics, we shalltaksBe part between them.. There are some

ea on both tickets wo should certainlyapport. Amongst all hands we ate g'ad to

think wo he a fiae chance for good oilyoffioors.

posed to coercion, mind you; but it is theftrst thing they will praetioo.

Tho editor can't get thr.ingk- - without alittle glorificatloa. Thus:

The city t! Washington was ttarlled from

equanimit) o few days ago by the an-

nouncement that oar whilom correspondenthad made his appearance within it limittThat he should have arrived unheralded

was enough to strike terror into the thirtyone thousand two hundredthen quartered in the hotels snd

the city. The question was freely asked:What does he want ? What office hat beentendered him? What influence has he withthe President f It was very properly sup-

posed that tho correspondent of the Louis-isvill-

Democrat was tbe bearer of goodtidings he never bears any other kind. liewas asked whether Kentucky would stay intho Union, and he promptly answered that,from the best information he possessed, tbewould, provided she did aot go out ; thatbo sensible men in tbe State saw any goodreason wny sue enouia not louow tne

of the star and stripes ; that she hadworried through tbe administration of hie

.friend Buchanan, and it was the boundenaaWy of her oilizoos to remain and see if ittwos possible for the present incumbent to

xoed in brilliancy the roign of his immeate fradecesaor. I am decidedly fit try- -

Sag that experiment.To allay all suspicion and excitement I

Vngic eay, in the most publio manner, thatam aot after as office; none has been

ttaeered me, none asked for. I have neverUu4 my eyes on tho President, and, judgingVan the crowd of office seeker that besiegein daily, I never shall. I feel authorized

t,'e, however, that the secessionists andbmblera at the South will be more disap

pointed in him than any one else. HisP'tlicyit I eace and no mistake. I state that

anfidenL'yi on tbe assertion of reliable menMgh in pa sition. The Cabinet, as ultra as

fcey may niem, will prove, by their acts,fcat they erv for the good of Ihe whole

lountry. If .tney don 1 1 am deceived, andsomebody has t'fcd most villainously.

The extra station of the Senate it becoming quite tpv'cy. The tilts in debatebetween Breckinridge and Douglas areexhilaraXing, and .furnish to the inquiringmind a pretty clea." insight to the late

Presidential campaign. Aside from thatiebate the sessions drag heavily. That body

ill doubtless adjourn this week.

The applioaats for otface from Kentucky

have not been numerous. The appointments

of Clay as Minister to Russia, and UrrenAdams, as Sixth Audiitor, were voluntarilytendered by the PreslleBit. Neither of the

gentlemen applied for ny office of any

kind. 1

I learn on the streets this worniug, thatAllen Burton, a republican elector for

Kentucky, hat beeu handsomely provided

for. Other appointments for Kentucky arespoken of, but without sufficient precision

to justify tho giving of names at this time

No man can reoeite an appointment unless

ho be clearly a Union man.

A very strange disease has broken out

among the office holders in this city. It

is nimble in the boot, and resembles very

much the disease that prevailed lst winteria Warren county, Illinois, and ia thusdescribed by the 0len Advertiser:

"Tax Jesks. We learn from the easternportion of the county that tho peculiar"jerking malady," which prevailed aboutotaTit miles jnin of Warren, during the

winter, hat not yet subsided. The Crttevidences of it were in those who had beenattending a protracted religious meeting,and had been brt tight under the influeuceof religion, but we now learn that it haspstended further, and affected persons Who

article 11, ef "tbe City Charter, of Je"il, withthe 9th eection of (he aot approved February28, 1860, it W'.li be perceived that the onlymaterial changes were, viz: In tbt former,the words "a tax of not less than twelveand a half ceutt, nor more than twenty-fi- ve

cents on each one hundred dollars' worth ofthe property assented for taxation witbia tbtoity limits" appeared, which, ia the latter,was changed to read "a tax of not less thantwenty cents on each one hundred dollars'worth of property, &o." It must here btnoted that the General Council bad, in1869. appropriated sixteen centi on each onehundred dollars, for the maintenance of'heicaooli that year, which, at hereto-fore ttattd, waa inadequate, and aa thetcbools were rapidly increasing, tho Boardwen tatisfied that without aa intreate oftTtnue, tbt schooli would be proitrattd or

invulvtd in a debt from' which they couldnot extricate themselves, tnence their spplic it i n to the General Assembly for that rfdress and relief which the Board of Truattes Fought for, but failed to receive fromthe bands of the General Council.

Now, let us review the change in its finan-cial hef ring. The charter of 1S01 gavethe schools 2 cents, if necessary, for thsirmaintenance; the General ( ounril apt.ropriated the insuSioiout amount of 10ibe Act of Feb , 1S0O, makes it --0 centi onthe liX) O'l, being 5 cents less than theform-- r, and 4 cents more for the latter,which, upon the net assessment of the city,

The second change required the GeneralLouocil to pay the accruing revenueseq iai monthly installments, to tie Secretaryot tbe Uoard in lieu, as nal been tbe custorn es'ablijhed by ordinance, of payingteaobets, and others by the Treasurer cfthe cuy. Thii change was made to enablethe Board to keep their account! in a systematic manner, so that tuey could at alltimes know tbe amount of their receipts,the amount of their payments, and theamount of their indebtedness Under tberu'.e fixed by ordinance, the board couldonly, upon receipt of the report of theAuditor, annually know the exact conditionof their financial affairs, for, as the reportsof the monthly allowances of the Boardwere sometimes kept over by the Auditorfour or fire months, the Board could keepno aocouut of such payments, but had topresume that they would ba paid by thecity Treasurer when in funds.

It has been cbsrgei upon the Board thatthey bad their "act" smuggled through theGeneral Assembly of Kentucky. To thisassertion 1 here give an unqualified denial.

Tho Board of Trustees apnointed a committee (Messrs. W. H. Watts, Jos Uemeut",

nd tho writer) to prepare an ajt for schoolpurposes. At a subsequent meeting cf theConid 'tie act was tad adopted.V lew days after it was handed to Uou.

Nat. Wolfe, who presented it lo"lLe Houseof Representatives, and had it adopUdby that body. Upon the aot reachior thesenate, tne Iton. C. v. t'ennabaker beingsomewhat opposed to'it, (particularly as itan not require a vote of the citu-n- s toconfirm it,) immediately addressed a note tonis Honor, tbe Mayor, notifying him thattuca an act was pendinr in the Senate.

The Mayor and chairman of the FinanceCommiiie of the Board of Aldermen at oncerepaire 1 to Frankfort to defeat it if possible.L pon learning of their departure Messrs G.W. Anderson and G. W. Morris repaired toFrankfort to counteract their effor't: Mr.Morris was suddenly called home. Upon

is return here ho deputised tbe writer toake his place being necessary that tome

one should meet the chairman of thecommittee aforesaid before the JudioiaryCommittee. Upon arriving in Frankfort Ilearned that the said chairman had returnedto this city for some statistics relating to tbeschools. I went before the Judiciary Committee in the presence of his Honor, tbeMayor, anl our two Hon. Senators, andexhibited to them all the statements andfads relating to our Publio Schools. Learn -

ng ihat bis Honor, the Mayor, and the saidchairman would again be before the Judiciary Committee, (on the succeeding Tues- -tay,) lu r rank tort, Mr Geo. W. Morns and

yself repaired thence and met them there.oth parties debated the question at someUfa. Lpon the Hon. L W. Andrewsking the question, " Would you, gentle-n- ,

be willing to take the vote of the''.e of Louisville upon the act?" Mr.

orris 'eplied, yes, willingly. The chair.aa a;. rc3iid replied, no ; for that anyocomti speech fer the benefit of schools

oull carry the question. Thus fallsthe ground the charge of smuggling

e act through the General Assembly. Ittrue the Board did not ask the consent of

the General Council to present their act.encj their opposition to it. Neither would

have comported with the dignity of theBoard to have so done af'er the discourteoustreatment their communications had met

ith.After the act became the law the Board

f Trustees wished and hoped that all animosity should be buried, and th.U the Gen-eral Council would in good faith comply

th tho law; but on the oontrary, I amuly eorry to say, that some of them haverown every obstacle in the way in orderannoy tne uoard or Trustees to Ihe u'most

of their power; the Board have, however,aken it all in good part, abided their hour.

and never let their feelings overcome theirJirnienl.The General Council, last spring, innformity with the law, let apart "0 cents

on the 100,00, fcr tbe support of tbeshools, but utterly refused to levy the

iai lax or o cents on the whnhcitizens voted upon thenj-eive- s two

ears previously; thus endeavoring to hamper the Board of Truateei. bv reiucine Ihe

schools would have to be suspended, andby persevering with the members of the

which they adopted three different times,and which was rejected by the Board ofAldermen as often, and I much doub', even

th the fact of the dosing of the schoolsstaring them in the face, if the Board ofaldermen everwouid have passed it, had itnot been for the indomitable energy of thatwhole-soul- ed friend of the tcbools, Jacobrlniyser, Ksq , who (1 believe, taking ad-vantage of taa abxeioe of one of the mem-bers of that body, who is inimical to theschools), induced Robt. Btird, Esq., to

i it through.Tb General Council have not endeavorei

to comply with tbe clause of the law relatingto the piyment or tbe monthly installments;the Board patiently awaited their aotion.Lpon the commencement of the collectionof the taxes for I8C0. at money accrued to'he credit of tho school fund, it was partial-ly paid over to the Secretary of the Boardof Trustees, the first payment being madeon July 10, ISO), from which time up tothe 1st December, lbOO, regular paymentswere made to tbe Secretary of the Boardamounting, in the aggregate, to SliJl't 35,and leaving to the credit of the school fund,on tbe books of the city, a balance of

It wat expected that the paymentswould have continued regular throughoutthe residua of the year, but on the 7th ofDecember, I80O, tbt whole machinery wasstopped by the approval of tbe followingjoint resolution of tbe General Council,which resolution, I believe, should have beenvetoed by the Mayor, as it it contrary tothe laws, which requires the warrants to bedrawn iu favor of the Secretary of the Boardof Trustees, whilst the resolution requiresthem to be made in favor of tho teachersand others.

The Board of Trustees, knowing tbe vacillating course that had been pursued bytba Mineral Council for months, 19 relanoto the Schools, at once concluded that theynid but little just ce to expect at their hands,and aga n determined to ask tbe co operation of the Geceral Assembly of Kentuckyto relieve them from their difficulties. Before carrying out their determination, however, and to prevent being again caargwith smuggling their act through, theyrequested the Committee on E lucation cthe General Council (wha had always beeninenj'.y to the Seho.0) to meet Ihe Comm l tee from the Board of Tru'lee?, t prepare such amendments as would be deemedacceptable both to the General Council anto the Board of Trustees. Accordinglytherewith the Joint Committees met audframed such ciBtnges in the law aa theythought would be satitfactory, after whichths B jard of Trustees, waiving all e'iquetterespectfully aked the General Council toappoiat a joint committee to met the 00mmittee from the Board of- - Trustees andperfect the said amendments.

When the proposed amendments weresniiuiiuad to a meeting of the CommonCouncil by tbe Chairman of the Committeeon Liucation, (who, after having read them)moved their adoption, the chairman ofthe Finance Committee of that body immediately proposed an amendment, vnrepeal all laws adopted aioce the charter ofor is j I, and throw the school interest btckto that so as to commence aneand, at ho expressed, virtually repeal thepresent Board of Trustees out of office.

The Common Counoil. however.upon the motion cf J. M. Moore, E?q ,

appointed a Committee of Conference, butthe Board of Aldermen, on the lime eveuiog,refused to appoint a committee, thus killingthe question, so far at tha General Councilwas concerned

A few days after tha above meeting, theUoard of Trustee sent their amendmentsto Frankfort, and through ths intercessionof the Hon.

lrdict ihe above SOJ.OSd 40 from the7,6i0 00, and we have a difference of

only $,400 51. Deduct th same from hi7S,wtj uo, the dilference is only the smalluinof ?15,000 51, without counting eitherhe State levy or interest on the bonds not

issued.With such an array of opposition as waa

presented to the Legisla'ure to defeat thct, it is a mystery it ever raised. We eaa

only pride ourselves upon the justice of theCause which carried it through.

in the Ueneral Council to sohools haveany and ardent friends, ( I believe a major

ity), whoe undaunted energy ia battlingfor the rights of the you'h of this city will

ver ne rememtiereu ami apprecia'ed.Alt the members of the tleneral Council

assert they are friendly to the achoolsotna or tnetu. However, have laen a very

singular w ly of Blowing their friend hip.for, by their arts men ar generally judged,and if they are not inimical to th echools.certainly they must b.--i uuutal to the boardof Trustees, which is tbe moro to be deplor-ed, for I cannot but regret that the schoolsshould have been injured for any unkindfeelings that should be held against theBiard of Trustees or any ot them.

Our worthy Mayor also contends that heis friendly to the schools. Does his actionsshow it? Did he not sign all tho joint res-olutions that wflre pajsed to hamper theuoara ana to defeat their bill in tho Legislature t And again, why did he, in hisannual mesaag4 of 1800, entirely ignore thePublic Schools (for he made no referencewhatever to tbem) which he so hizhlvextolled in his annual message of 1800.

This defense would not have bean made.had not the General Council publicly d

the Board of Trustees, by publishingto the world the of the Counoiland memorial to Ihe Qeneral Assembly ofthe Commonwealth of Kentucky," approvedJanuary -- !, 1801, which would have hadthe effect of making the citiiens of Louis.ville inimical to the Public Schools if leftunanswered; that strenuous efforts haveboon made to break down our very admirableschool system, all will almit who read tbia

At fur the Public bchooit of Louisville,they require no defense a visit to them byall of our ckiit-n- (who are cordially In-

vited) will convince any unbiased mindthat ihey ccmpire favorably with the publicchoo'a of all tbe cities in the Union.

To sum up.iaafev words, all tht changesin the school laws aiaca lsol, they are, first.The Board ura now governed by fixed Leg-islative law instead of by ciiy ordinances,"prescribing Ihe duties of the Board ofof Trustees," which could be adopted andrepealed at pleasure, as heretofore. Second,changing from a minimum and maximumper cenlage to a fixed minimum of 20 centsThird, providing that the revenues accruingto the schools l be paid to the Secretaryof the Board of Trustees in lieu of to thecity Treasurer. Fourth, givin; to the Boardpotter to and convey escheated realestate, which power had not previously beendelegated, either to tbe city or Board.

In this communication 1 have endeavoredto adhere striotly to tha truth and threcords, nor eet down ought in malice,entertaining, as I do, the highest retard forhis Honor, tbe Mayer, and all the crfmberaof the General Council, with most of whomI am personally and intimately acquainted.I regret, exceedingly, their publication oftheir joint resolution, which mad thiurejoinder necessary.

I a conclusion, 1 desire that all otimi na-

tion and recrimination oease, and thathereafter the General Council and the Boardof Trustees will act ia unison and harmony,thus creAtiog tor both interests, a bright andprosperous future.
